Goals for Google Day 2:
1. Start getting all the scenes saved onto the computer
2. Divide the website (weebly) with all the sections of movies that will have the gifs
3. Start making gifs with gifninja.com
Links:
http://keepvid.com : This link helped me download the Youtube videos onto my desktopl. Thanks to this site, I was able to convert the scenes I wanted to use as gifs into files.
http://www.computerhope.com/issues/ch001002.htm: At first, I had no clue how to download scenes from Youtube onto my computer. But, I reached this website by google search. Here it described how to download and gave me two websites that helped me convert my videos into files.
Evidence and Description of Learned:
By taking 85 minutes to just focus on making gifs, I had the opportunity to learn many new things about the web. Firstly, I learned that when you have a doubt about how something works, Google it! really helps. Secondly, the Youtube videos are have a copyright, and thus aren't allowed to edit. I learned this by trying to edit gifs on Windows Movie Maker. While I tried to drop in the downloaded videos, an x would appear. Then, Ms. Shawn told me what I described above. While making gifs in NinjaGif, I learned that gifs are just repetitive showing of a video, or multiple images. This gives the file a different html, and therefore is used differently by websites. These gifs that are made are repetitions of the first seconds of the video, and that is why I encountered several problems with the files. For example, I was planning to do the gif of 'I double dare you' in Pulp Fiction, but because this didn't appear at the beginning, I couldn't do the gif.
Evidence of what I did (2 gifs per section):
Questions for Next Google Day:
1. How do you add text into the gifs?
2. Is it possible to edit files so they can be cut and then used in GifNinja?
3. Is there a way to make the gif in the website that is not the first seconds of the file?
