Thinking about Computers

I got bored the other day (I know what you're thinking: How can a Uni student be bored?), and decided to have a little play around with my computer. I found out that GISHWHES (a super awesome record breaking scavenger hunt) was going to happen again this year, and wanted previous participants to make a promotional video to get more people interested in the fun event.

I'll admit, I was super excited, but didn't have a clue as to what to do. 

I remembered making a PowerPoint into a video for a previous assignment, and thought this would be my best option for attacking the task. The only problem was that I needed music for the video, and I hated the trial and error associated with getting music to run right with my PowerPoint's.

So instead of mucking around with PowerPoint, I made the video without music and then put it into Movie Maker. And presto.....I made a cool movie :-)

Not only did I challenge myself a little, it also killed an hour of my time :-P

Computers are Fun
