3+-+Video+Activities

**Video Activity 1: Screen capture and screen recording**
1. Microsoft Windows Operating System 2. I used the alt+PrintScreen technique (on my laptop, the alt+fn+PrintScreen) to capture the active window (didn't know about the "alt" technique) and Microsoft PowerPoint to compress the picture and save it as a .jpg file. 3. I was familiar with this process (minus the "alt" key) and was able to quickly add a screenshot, which is a very helpful process when I'm sending an email to our tech support about something gone wrong! :-)
 * Part A:**

1. Microsoft Windows Operating System 2. I used Jing to capture and label the image and Web Resizer (instead of PowerPoint, thinking I would end up with a sharper image) to reduce the size of the image. 3. I already had Jing installed, so capturing the image was easy; I didn't have to install or register for Web Resizer, so that was extremely quick and easy (will definitely use this program)!
 * Part B:**

media type="youtube" key="GF7tOy8WsS4?hl=en" height="344" width="425" 1. Microsoft Windows Operating System 2. I used Jing to capture audio and visual directions to access the project updates page of the Office of Legal Education, and then I used YouTube to host and embed the video into my wiki page. 3. I couldn't figure out how to embed the video from Jing's Screencast.com (kept getting an error message - see screenshot below :-)), so I resorted to the tried-and-true YouTube to upload and embed.
 * Part C:**



**Video Activity 2: Create a slide show with accompanying music using an online app**
media type="custom" key="8217092" 1. Microsoft Windows Operating System 2. I used Animoto's "slide wizard" to add images and music - very user friendly with helpful suggestions. 3. I couldn't figure out how to edit the slideshow once I got out of it, so I had to recreate the slides (twice!).
 * All images and audio were created by the Justice Leadership Institute (US Department of Justice).
