It took me awhile to figure out something to do this video on. I first thought to do something that involved my cats, but I really don't need to reinforce the "crazy cat lady" label anymore than I already have. Instead, I decided to make a little advertisement for an event that the Campus Ministry Office here at Alverno is having.
Every year in April, the Campus Ministry Department puts on an event called The Significant Women Brunch. The Alverno community is invited to bring significant women in their lives to a brunch. Brunch, song and a keepsake are all included. This year, the theme is "Women Lighting the Way". I tried to pick a layout that could reflect this as much as possible, which is why I chose the one with the lights glowing in the background. I began the video with the question that is stamped on all of our flyers: Do you have a Significant Woman in your life? Everyone has at least one woman who has made an impact on them, whether it be a relative, friend, teacher or coworker. I then found stock photos of female relationships that are commonly brought to the Brunch. Many people bring their mothers or daughters. After these photos, I put in a picture of a really good looking brunch, followed by the basic information for the event. Because the audience is our class, I put at the end that if anyone wants more information, they can just ask me! I'm a student worker in Campus Ministry, so I should be able to answer any questions.
What was most annoying about this was that I couldn't get rid of the sample logos at the beginning and end of the video. Each time I clicked them to change them, it took me to a different screen and told me to upgrade to a business account if I wanted to edit. Did anyone else have this problem??
Allison Y: After watchign your animoto, I thought it was very creative that you turned it into an advertisement. Right away I started thinking that maybe I could use animoto for some work advertisements. I first thought about it as more of a memory box/picture sharing app. I love everyone's own creative take on it. When I created my animoto, I do not believe that i got the "SL" logo on mine. I noticed that there were a few backgrounds to selct from that were listed for "membership use." Perhaps this was one that they wanted to sell do they put the SL logo on? Regardless, this was a great sue on animoto.
