Project # 7
For this project I
created a digital story using a digital media tool called Microsoft PhotoStory 3.  First, I imported several photos from my computer that I wanted to use for this project.  Primarily, I found pictures of my boyfriend, friends and family and imported them into Microsoft PhotoStory 3. Then, I selected background music that was already saved to my computer, and imported it into the project.  However, the first song that I chose was not long enough to cover the amount of pictures that I included in my project, so I decided to select a second song to cover all my pictures.  After previewing my project, to ensure that the music matched the pictures, I customized the motion of each picture.  I was able to change the motion and duration, along with the transition of each picture within the project.  After this task was complete I previewed my project and saved it as an .wmv file.  Overall, this project was very easy and fun!  This digital media tool can be utilized in a classroom to create digital stories of school events and presentations.  I thoroughly enjoyed this project, and have learned a lot about Microsoft PhotoStory 3 and how it can enhance the learning process for all learners through words, pictures and music.
