I really enjoyed our last meeting and being able to listen to everyone show their Prezis.  It was neat to see everyones pictures and see what picture tip each person used.  I enjoyed watching the lip dub videos during class also.  I think lip dubs are a great way to incorporate a large variety of people in a whole production.  I watched the Kids in America video and it thought it was a great  representation of the whole school working on something together.  I'm having a good time working on my Pecha Kucha.  I'm doing it on my trip to New Zealand and Australia.  While I love the pictures that I chose, I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly what tone to take in my voice overs and what types of music and sounds to put in with it.  I am also trying to decide if I should use voicethread or if I should try the slidesix.  I opened an account for slidesix, but couldn't really figure it out at the time.  I think I need to sit down more with it and focus more on it.  My biggest concern with the Pecha Kucha is that I won't be able to get each slide to show for 20 seconds.  Hopefully I will figure that out.
