Analysis of Corporate Blogs

I felt more comfortable editing this podcast than any other podcast. I feel very comfortable using iMovie for editing video. I felt like I presented information in an easy-to-understand manner for this podcast. And I used PowerPoint slides to try to help viewers understand my points.

There are, however, some things that I would change about the podcast. First, when I taped the podcast I thought I positioned myself well. By looking at the small screen on the camera I felt I was using the thirds rule. However, when I looked at the video on the large computer screen, I realized that I should have moved over just a little more to the right. It's amazing how the difference in the size of the screen changes the perceptions of space.

Second, I should have moved the camera down and zoomed in just a little bit to cut off some of the top of the screen. Once again, the difference in the screen size played a role.

I am happy to have learned how to shoot and edit video. I think this skill will make me more marketable when I start looking for a full-time faculty position.
