Video Daily Creates

  1. TDC710: Make a “news of the day” video.

    December 18, 2013

    Make a “news of the day” video. The video should use some sort of recent news event as a springboard. It can be a news story from today (this morning), but it doesn’t have to be. In fact, you could even go “old school” and find news stories from archived sources–like the “news of the day” from 1936 (to pick a random year). Upload your video to YouTube with the tags dailycreate and tdc710 (YouTube seems to work best if you also include tdc710 in the video title) [tubepress mode=”tag” tagValue=”tdc710″ playerLocation=”shadowbox” orderBy=”published” showRelated=”false” ajaxPagination=”false” resultsPerPage=”28″ author=”true” videoBlacklist=””]

To prepare for the Reclaim Open Learning Symposium on September 27, we want to give the audience a sense of who are the people that are ds106. Here is what we ask you to do in a short video; it should be one take. (1) Do a “5, 4, 3, 2, 1” countdown. (2) Say in your most emphatic voice “I am ds106” (3) Then do something creative to represent a cut (4) Then reiterate it by saying “WE are ds106” (5) And leave a little bit on the end because it helps the video editor, wave goodbye. Of course you are free to break all the rules ;-) Upload your video to YouTube with the tags dailycreate and tdc622 (YouTube seems to work best if you also include tdc622 in the video title) [tubepress mode=”tag” tagValue=”tdc622″ playerLocation=”shadowbox” orderBy=”published” showRelated=”false” ajaxPagination=”false” resultsPerPage=”28″ author=”true” videoBlacklist=””]
