  3. Preparation Questions to Ask: • Why? • Is this the best tool? • What am I trying to show or achieve? • What resources do I have and what do I need? • What photos do I have and what photos do I need? • Where am I going to output my Photo Story resource to? • Are my photos the correct size for my output intention?

  4. Story Board - PLAN • Produce an outline of what you are doing – Story board • List your photos in order and work out the text or script that needs to go with them

  5. Photo size • Why resize? • Resizing reduces the file size of your finished product eg Photo Story file • Less time to load and view for user or to send across the web eg email • Reduce file size in online environments where storage space can be an issue eg MOODLE, Wiki • Solution.................

  6. Resizer • Quick resizing of photos particularly large numbers or bulk batching • Download it from http://www.brothersoft.com/downloads/jpeg-resize.html • (Easily found by searching in Google – JPEG Resizer) • When it is downloaded double click on the .exe file to run it

  7. Four Basic Steps to Resize • Add the File(s) or entire Folder • Select the output size • Select an output location • Perform the resize

  8. Demonstration of JPEG Resizer

  9. Photo Story • A step by step wizard to create your movie or show • Before commencing make sure you have your: • story board on hand • photos resized and “conveniently” filed for easy access • audio and microphone are working • sound tracks eg music saved and at hand

  10. Educational Uses of Photo Story • Journal of work experience or project • Recording of steps in a process – especially for students with low literacy • Assessment of work flow or steps where student s are given the photo steps and asked to arrange and annotate them • Work or project descriptions by students • Identification of tools, plants, parts, equipment • Introduction to a problem or an issue • Promotion of a viewpoint or an issue eg recycling

  11. Saving your Photo Story File • Photo Story projects files are saved with the extension .wp3. This file is known as a project file and it can be opened and edited at any time. • When a Photo Story project is completed (saved or not) it can be “exported” a number of ways and this will depend on your intended end use. • Photo Story output files are exported as .wmv (Windows Audio/Video) files but their size and quality will vary according to the export type you select

  12. Output Files from Photo Story

  13. Demonstration of File Samples

  14. What Output do I need

  15. Output Size(mb)versus Quality • What if the Email Output is poor visual quality for my web use? • Consider linking to the Photo Story file from a “cloud” resource eg public web server such as TeacherTube - they deal with the space issue not you

  16. TeacherTube • Go to www.teachertube.com • Click the sign up icon • Create an account • Upload your file • Use the TeacherTube URL (web address) to create a link in your web page eg Wiki or Moodle course
