"How to Create a Postcard Using InDesign"

Reflection:

When the project was first introduced, I always wanted to do something with my tablet and it's possible with Quicktime Player. Unfortunately, I ditched the idea with using my Cintiq because I had to redo my recording three times, but I did went back to using my mouse (not the trackpad) and it was a lot easier to use and to navigate than the tablet. Plus, I did my last recording while waiting for my rice to cook.

With the video's original time length, it was about 7 minutes which I was lucky to not record my voice at the same time, then that would be a waste of time and effort. I had to extend and shorten some places of the video, so at the end, it was a 4:44 minute video. I did my voice recording separately and add that to iMovie which I used to edit my video.

On the night before the Final, I wanted to mark some spots in the video so it's easier for the viewers to locate where to find what. So I used Photoshop and make those labels. I did thought of adding text like "⌘ + C" but there was one part that went too fast that used that "⌘" symbol and so, I didn't include it. There is so much stuff that I wanted to explained, but due to time restraints, I had to omit them and tried to explain the rest in my youtube description.

If I were to recreate this video again, then I would make it longer and have more details and explaining.
