This video was built from a shot of a teacher in front of a green shower curtain (Ikea, $6). In iMovie, it was chromakeyed onto a screen short of a word cloud created at Tagul.com. The screenshot of Tagul was imported into iMovie. In this case, it was a video of the Tagul word cloud captured with SnapzPro (Camstudio on a PC). A still of a Wordle would have worked just as well. This can be done in Moviemaker on a PC, although it takes so much effort it is easier to buy a good editing program with chromakey--like Adobe Premier Elements (>$50 school price), or other PC program. media type="custom" key="7244441" This is from a Flip mino shooting a Mac laptop screen. Laptop or flat screens are best to shoot from. If you have an older CRT (those fat picture tube monitors), you can get the dreaded rolling black bars (an interesting science experiment for students--why the bars?). Tips: Sit three or four feet from the screen and shot from there. Place a piece of paper on the screen so the camera can focus, then begin shooting. Cameras seem to have trouble focusing on computer screens. Also, you might use speakers for the sound. The Flip needs the amplification to record sound in this way. This video wasn't shot with a tripod, although if you or the students get too wobbly, mini-tripods can be bought for around $10. media type="custom" key="7253373"

 * Blabberize of FDR giving assignment**

An image of FDR was uploaded to Blabberize at Blabberize.com. The 'talking head' was originally screen captured live with SnapzPro on the Mac (Camstudio would have done it on the PC). media type="custom" key="7244453" Uploaded directly from Jing.

After the video challenge was sent out to participants' cell phone (via an SMS gatewway), videos were shot--typically on cells--and uploaded to YouTube, where they were shown at the close of FETC, the Florida Educational Technology Conference. There are many other fine sites that will take uploads from a Flip cam, including Flip's site. YouTube was chosen because it would take uploads from mobile phones. With a Flip, this is not an issue. The judges believe the sock puppet video was made by great teacher and DEN Star Dennis Grice, from southern California. media type="custom" key="7244457" This health video was another winner from the 42nd California Student Media Festival (mediafestival.org), as was the first video above. It blends editable clips from the media library at DiscoveryEducationStreaming with original student videos. The edited video has titles, captions, and other elements possible when videos are taken from cameras (like the Flip) and imported into editing programs on school computers. media type="custom" key="7244467" = Videos for the September Webinar on MashUps - Click in Order! =
