Day 5
Edit and Publish
In this session we are going to polish your digital stories and then publish them. We will be adding transitions, pan and zoom, titles and music. Then once we have output the files as a movie we can publish them to DVD and/or upload them to the web.
Publish
- Posting your video online - Just go to one of the online video sites and setup an account. Then upload the .wmv file you "output" from the slide show feature in Photoshop Elements.

Sharing
Of course, my favorite part of this project is getting to share the amazing stories that students create. So butter up the popcorn and turn down the lights.
Suggestions
