I would like to start by discarding or leaving aside the fact that I do not have enough experience in using or managing tools or applications to create materials in audiovisual format. It is a topic that I am introduced to for the first time thanks to the magnificent authors, analysts, and disseminators of the topic that I have been able to meet in this course, who have allowed me to open the paradigm that I had regarding the implementation of in our classrooms. Taking into account the above, perhaps I do not fully adhere to the analysis or discussion of issues, but I dare to raise my points of analysis from my modest experience.
What audio and video applications can you use to help you create powerful presentations or demonstrate your learning?
Looking for some of the applications that we can use to create audiovisuals, I found many. However, after an analysis of the intended audience and taking into account some specific characteristics of the place where I am going to learn, I found some of more interest that I show below:
VideoScribe:This is a common tool used by educators, marketers, and presenters to create visually appealing and easy-to-understand material. It has automatically animated images and texts in hand-drawing style, making it an effective tool to capture the audience's attention.
Powtoon: It is ideal for educational presentations and also explanatory videos. It is very easy to use; There are tutorials on how to use it in case one is a beginner. It has integration with other sites such as YouTube and Google Drive.
Vyon: Advanced customization features. A huge library of resources. These animated video makers consist of VideoMojo and Go.
Animaker: High character customization along with the number of animation modes.
Renderforest: The template library is huge and very good value for the amount paid.
What video or audio tool are you already working on and why? And what other tools can you consider?
In my experience I had the opportunity to work with the VideoScribe tool, making some promotional and call-to-action videos. Among many, I chose this particular one because it automatically draws images and texts in hand-drawing style, a well-known trend hitherto seen in YouTube videos, which captivates viewers due to its unique production pattern. I also took some criteria from friends and family to decide which one I finally had to deal with, and VideScribe was the most popular style. Other apps I can consider could be Weebly and Invideo. As they are great tools for anyone looking for more meaningful video editing, and they are also more likely to integrate visual material within websites.
If you haven't already, use that audio or screencasting tool to leave feedback for your peers and the learning community.
I was looking for more screencasting tools: Camtasia, Screencast-0 Matic, OBS Studio and Loom. Much more than others, some offer advanced editing recordings great for tutorials and web courses. Additionally, others like Screencast-O-Matic and Loom are easier for core users with simple editing requirements. I decided to look at Loom because it supports a lot of quick recordings and allows for easy video sharing. Here I share a video that I found on YouTube, which describes how to produce this work from that platform. I found it to be an excellent option for tutorials, feedback, and differentiated processes. One thing that caught my attention is that it is very easy to access and master in order to create screencasting. Another essential element is the use of a large number of graphs and diagrams in real time with the work team to facilitate learning. One drawback is that it offers a 5-minute video recording on its free plan, which is very short. The other thing to note is that it lacks an Android app, which leaves this group in the air. Available only for iOS and Windows and as a browser extension. In any case, I will continue looking for more to expand my knowledge about this great tool of influence. I hope the experience has been valuable to you; In any case, you will see your own experience to continue learning about the subject.
