Recently, I signed up for an Adobe Digital Creativity course with my friend, Heather Dowd, in order to infuse my creativity skills with some new ideas and projects for my classes. Since I began teaching Digital Media at SAS last year, my students' skills have grown exponentially and several of them have started to ask me about After Effects and Photoshop, which pushed me to take this class. I am really enjoying it so far, and have been introduced to some great programs to get creative with. Our first assignment in this course was to make an Adobe Voice about either ourselves or someone else taking part in the program, so naturally I made mine about Heather. :)
For those of you who don't know what Adobe Voice is, it is an app for the iPad/iPhone that helps you create animated videos quite simply. You don't need to film at all, you just talk to tell your story, and choose photos, icons, and beautiful themes to show your ideas. They also have great soundtracks and transitions to add to the video.
Below is my Adobe Video for Heather, I am challenging myself to find some uses for it in my classroom since I have an iPad mini cart at my disposal right now. How would you use Adobe Voice in your classroom?
