My Digital Life 2.0

Our assignment was to create a digital story about our personal life. I had to first write a short script that I used to create my final product of my digital video of my personal story. I had to use visual tools such as iMovie, animo to or any other tool to create a video. The video creation tool that I used was stupeflix and the storyboard program I used was storyboard maker.  I had to upload the video through youtube. I really enjoyed doing this media project. I also had to upload my draft of my script to the discussion board so, that my critical friend can give me some feedback.

Below is my Digital Script

Slide 1: Devin is my name which means poet and in my name it describes my life.

Slide 2; Determined, Emotionally-Erratic at times, vigilant, innovative and nifty.

Slide 3: I came from a family who loved me but, struggle to show it due to their own demons.

Slide 4: I was determined not to be like my parents so I tried to be the best in everything. Education was my outlet...Education was freedom.

Slide 5: I struggle with being happy and often times I was emotionally-erratic at times, until I met my husband in high school.

Slide 6: He was my light in my tunnel of darkness...we have been together for 14 years. We have had our 1st child right after I graduated from college. My son is my bittersweet love, he was born a week after my father passed away. He is my daily reminder of my deceased father who never got the chance to meet his grandson.

Slide 7: Through all the tragedy I was vigilant. I was not going to let tragedy drag me down..I enrolled in Alternative Program and became a teacher to make a difference.

Slide 8: I soon realized that I have a gift...to make learning innovative and relevant. My passion is education and technology.

Slide 9: Soon my daughter was born who was born in a time of chaos and her personality is that of a Hurricane Ike, she’s a wild one but, she is one of the many loves of my life.

Slide 10: I soon started to feel like I needed to do something different a change of pace so I decided to get my master to pursue my passion of curriculum and technology. I figure I would take people advice” You have such nifty ideas, you should focus on doing something extraordinary with your talents”.

Slide 11: So here I am taking steps to be the poet that I am Determined, Emotionally-Erratic at times, vigilant, innovative and nifty.
