Petting Zoo

~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~  ~

Process: I created this zoo movie by using Photo Story. I added the same picture of a Zebra multiple times and added text and effects to each slide. I enhanced the slides using transitions and music along with the effects I added to the pictures. The music I have in this movie is from youtube and is an African song which I believe is appropriate since zebras are from Africa. I chose this type of music to make the movie a little more entertaining.

Purpose: We used Photo Story because it was an easy way to create a movie. It allowed us to use an image that we could crop and add effects to, to create a more appealing slide. This application allows you to record right along with the images. It also allows you to choose what sort of music you whether it's your own or the applications. I believe photostory is very easy to use because it has simple steps and very user friendly.   

The purpose of putting a Zoo page on Snowed Inn is to show of one of the Inn's amenity, the Petting Zoo. It allows for the viewer to see facts about the feature animals at the zoo. I hope it shows a prospective visitor how much fun they could have at my Snowed Inn.

Possibilities: I think I could remake this and do it easier because I now understand the how to use the program. I also think I could show someone how to do this because I am confident that I know how to use photostory.

  Amenities

Process

 I created the amenities movie by using PowerPoint. I created slides and placed images and information about amenities that my Snowed Inn offered. I used images that were of African safaris and Mt. Kilimanjaro. I used bright colors to enhance my slides and attract the viewers. I tried to use animations that were flash and caught the observers attention. I wanted to make the prospective guest have a strong urge to want to stay. 

Purpose

I used PowerPoint to create my movie because it is user friendly and gives more options for editing. I believe that it is easier to navigate and locate the proper tools for creating a movie.

The purpose of putting an Amenities Page on Snowed Inn is to show the visitor what the Inn has to offer. My video is very energetic with vivid colors to attract the viewers eyes and enhance their interest in the Inn. This gives the prospective visitor a greater urge to want to stay.

 Possibilities

 PowerPoint worked really well for this movie. It was hard timing the titles just right. If I had to do this again, I would have added music. I could create this again, faster and easier because I already did it once. It was kind of confusing at first, but after the first slide it seemed to get easier. I could train a novice to make this movie since I already did it.
