GBN Multimedia + GBN Hockey

GBN Multimedia class was well represented in the state championship hockey game.  Three of our stellar Multimedia students tallied against New Trier Green at the United Center on March 24th.

Ryan Slovis scored and Nick Day also found the net for the Spartans, while Jonathan Gauger assisted on a goal.   Way to go GBN Multimedia and GBN Hockey!

Podcast

1.       You are going to make a 1-2 minute podcast, or an audio recording that people can download

2.       It is going to be similar to the CBS Sports Minute that you hear on the radio

3.       Listen to a sample here, which is NBA commentator Tom Tolbert talking about the NCAA http://newyork.cbslocal.com/audio/1667-cbs-sports-minute/

4.       I went and downloaded the audio editing software called Audacity at www.audacity.com

5.       I watched this tutorial on YouTube on how to edit files in Audacity http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G7BZjjH4I9M

6.       Pick a topic, appropriate of course, in the sports world

7.       Record your commentary on audacity, making sure you begin your commentary with an intro audio of about five seconds

8.       You must have audio in the background, which I “quieted” in Audacity

9.       My example, on the 2012 GBN Spartan Sophomore Football team, is below

10. Turn it in using Edmodo, and also put it on your web site

Web app

MULTI-MEDIA APPLICATIONS

WEB APP

1. You are going to make a web app, which looks like a regular phone app, but doesn’t need to be downloaded from a store

2. Pick something to make a web app about – it could be a GBN sports team, a local mom and pop store that could use one, etc.

3. Look at my GBN Football app 

o Go to http://gbhsweb.glenbrook225.org/GBN/athletics/fbsite/index.html

o Download it to your phone

o Play around with it

4. Go to www.ibuildapp.com

5. Click on web apps

6. Figure it out, make it, post it here on the blog

7. Keep it appropriate, of course

8. Good luck!
