VIDEO+EDITING+iPOD+TOUCH 

=Make a Professional Video with only your iPod Touch! = = =

You and your students can film, take still images and edit together a movie with only an iPod Touch. If you can spend a little money, the **iMovie app** for iPhone/iPad/iPod Touch is a fun video editing app - users can take video from in the app or upload video from the device. There are a variety of themes (news report, movie trailer, etc.) that users can add to spice up the final product.

A simple, straight forward and FREE app for iOS editing is __**SPLICE**__ - download from the iTunes store //(paid version removes ads while you are editing; you may also want to pay for additional songs)//

__**Features:**__
 * Edit Film (take out unwanted parts, mute audio, change the speed/rate of video, etc.)
 * Add special effects, borders around video and zooming to still images
 * Add titles BETWEEN images or videos (no subtitles)
 * Add audio - special effects, narration (record your voice), music (limited free choices)
 * Add transitions - fade in/fade out, crossfade, etc.
 * Export and upload to YouTube or other sharing sites (follow copyright laws)





__**Note**__ - these directions were created for freshmen students - the "no faces" and "first name" only rule is to protect their privacy - change this guideline as you will but remember to get permissions from family and help students understand the need to protect their privacy online. The YouTube directions refer to "asking a teacher" because classroom teachers need to set up YouTube channels before students post to provide easier access to videos.
