Videos that were created through my ELED class from Lamar University. I am aware of video media but I am not a practiced video editor or one that uses it as a hobby, I hope you enjoy. Deciding what to use and tell about myself was difficult for me. I am not one to really devour to all about my life because of all the roadblocks I have to go through. So, creating this was hard to open that space and be okay with it. Now I know that I sounded awful on the narration because I am fighting my allergies and seemed to have tried recording many times. Not mentioning how many. Using the reading and video from Martin Scorsese, I tried to view the pictures and what I said so that anyone could view and understand. There are many commericals and programs that are showing way too much for children and I wanted something that my son would be proud of. I also had to not publish it to youtube or teachertube because I had not recieved permission from all the students in the student trips that we had taken. As a former webmaster I understand and value not exploiting a child's picture if the parent has not allowed it to be viewed. That was one step that I will not cross. I choose to use the pictures because it and still has been a large part of my life and have seen these students grow into wonderful young adults. I am very proud of them and what we were able to go and see together.
