Subtle difference between Animation and VideoAn animation is an animated drawing, cartoon, etc. A Video is a live recorded motion picture.
Although "video" is often used to refer any kind of audio/visual recording, an animation is never referred to a live recording.

Implications for Video Games in EducationKatrin Becker
http://www.minkhollow.ca/becker/doku.php?id=serious_games
Becker explores these questions:
1. What is it about games that makes them so engaging?
• How can we transform that into games for learning?
• How can we design GOOD games for learning?• How important is it to know how the technology
works, if you want to design artifacts that use it?

Best Practices Cinematic 1. Use a tripod with your camera. Especially if you are having camera movement (tilt,
pan, etc)– Use a microphone if possible. Ensure that the sound is clear and that the volume is
consistent for the entire video.– Use a dolly if possible when moving the camera.– Use effective lighting. Remember that lighting from behind can cause a silhouette
effect while too much lighting from the front can cause over exposure. Different types of lighting have varying effects on different materials.
![Page 18: Video Group James, Chris, Chen, Amanda, Vanita, Salima](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061614/56649ef25503460f94c0411e/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Best Practices Technical 1. Make sure that the video has a properly descriptive and distinct title.– Make sure the video is properly tagged.– Try to keep the file size as low as possible without sacrificing quality.– Take the time to edit and review your video. Have at least one other person watch it
and make suggestions.– If the video is being shared on a site such as youtube, enable comments so that
people can respond to the video.
![Page 19: Video Group James, Chris, Chen, Amanda, Vanita, Salima](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061614/56649ef25503460f94c0411e/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Best Practices
Dramatic
1. Dress appropriately to the message you are trying to deliver. (NY Governor's Debate vs Jimmy McMillan)
– Try to have a professional looking set or background.
![Page 20: Video Group James, Chris, Chen, Amanda, Vanita, Salima](https://reader033.vdocuments.us/reader033/viewer/2022061614/56649ef25503460f94c0411e/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Best Practices Literary
1. Avoid offensive content such as racist remarks, cursing, sexism, etc.– Avoid shameless self promotion.– Be accurate and precise. Work hard to make sure that the things you say are accurate
or else your video will be heavily criticized in the user comments.– Keep it as short as possible.– Do not interrupt the video with commercials or pointless comments.– Be creative. (Walking on Water) – Avoid anything annoying like bad music, interruptions, pop ups, embedded links,
etc.

Videos and Social Change
• "Would you consider watching community media as part of the news you consume? Would you prefer to watch a news report about, say, an earthquake in Pakistan, by someone who had lived through that earthquake, or by a professional journalist?"(http://blog.ted.com/2011/01/14/fellows-friday-with-jessica-mayberry/)
• Jessica Mayberry is founder of 'Video

Web Video Empowering- Promoting Global Innovation Three aspects promote innovation: • Crowd- Bigger the crowd the more potential innovators
(group of people with common interest)• Light- Visibility of what the best people in that crowd are
capable of• Desire- If you can do something that goes viral then you can
be seen by the equivalent of stadiumsVideo on the web allows all three of these innovation drivers to be at their maximum http://www.ted.com/talks/view/id/955l
