A growing library of short tutorials on making quality student movies. Check back often.
Episode 1: Stay Online: Find LEGAL Images and Videos with Creative Commons Search (and Download YouTube, etc, with Zamzar.com)
Episode 2: Skills with Stills – Focus on Your Photos with the Ken Burns Effect
iMovie ‘06 only, though the idea of good KB Effect applies to any movie with photos.
