    I thoroughly enjoyed making this podcast. Being able to make something about a topic that I enjoy was relatively fun for me. The only thing that I did not like was how the school's security would not let you do most of the applications that you wanted to do. The hardest part in this podcast was having to strictly follow the copyright rules. I have learned most of the copyright rules through this podcast so that should help me in college.

    The one thing I enjoyed about making my podcast was looking for the music. I liked the different kind of music choices. The least thing I did not like was trying to find the photos. I didn't like it because of all of the copy right. I also found that the most challenging because it was difficult to find the photos I wanted and they couldn't be copy right. The biggest thing I learned while creating this podcast was copy right I didn't know anything about copy right before we learned about it.

    The thing that i most enjoyed about creating my podcast was how i was in control on how i made every part of my podcast. In my opinion i didn't have a least favorite part of creating my podcast. The biggest challenge in creating my podcast was finding all the public domain pictures. What i learned from this podcast assignment was that it takes alot more time then i thought to make a podcast and it takes alot of thought to make one.

    When creating my podcast, the thing that I enjoyed the most was going online to find pictures and videos for my podcast. The thing that I strongly disliked the most was, having to cut out and smuge out all the copyrighted graphics. The thing that I found to be the most challenging was, trying to find a video without alot of copyrighted graphics. Also the thing that I learned when creating the podcast was how to clip or cut out parts of video with copyrighted graphics.

    When I was creating my webcast, I really enjoyed doing the effects, and writing the story. The thing I least liked about it was having to find videos oh web master, and then downloaded 3 and had no more to download, even if they didnt work. The biggest challenge I had was finding the video. I couldn't find one for a really long time. I learned a lot about copyright. It gets harder when you can't just take pictures off of the internet, and you have to check for copyright.

    The thing that i enjoyed the most about creating my podcast it being able to talk about something that i enjoy. The thing that i didn't like is having to follow all the copyright rules. My biggest challenge was trying to find pictures that were public domain. The thing that i learned is that when you put projects up on the internet you have to make sure that the public domain or copyrighted. If they are copyrighted and you put them on your project you can get fined.

    I enjoyed getting sounds for my podcast because they were fun to listen to. The thing I didn't like was that we had to find a video when its like imposible to get a video on my subject. Also I think the biggest challenge was stil getting a video because it took me forever to put one in my podcast. Throught all of it I learned that It is a lot easier to make movies than people think it is.

    The thing I liked most about making the podcast was watching my work expand. My least favorite part of the podcast was finding the pitures because they were mostly copyright. Finding pictures was a big challenge. I learned a couple things one is that europe started dirt bike events before the USA.

    The thing that I enjoyed the most about my podcast was doing all of the editing for my audio and slides. The thing that I didn't like a lot was that it was hard to find public domain pictures for a specific topic. The biggest challenge for me was trying to make sure everything was used legally and having to mention the sites that I found the media. I learned that following copyright laws is very important and that there are big consequences if they are not obeyed.

    When creating my podcast I enjoyed being able to test out and make a personal movie on movie maker. I thought it was challenge to create but really fun to see it when complete. I did not enjoy the problems I came accross when I was working with movie maker. The biggest challenge was meeting all the requirments that were on the rubric. I learned a lot including how to use movie maker. I also learned the copyright laws which i very interesting.

    I liked making pictures in paint.
    I didn't like making ALL my pics in paint.
    My biggest challenge was getting pics that weren't copywrited and ended up making my own.
    Well I learned how to make a podcast and how to use MovieMaker neither of which I've used before.

    I enjoyed, learned, and had many challenges while creating my podcast. The thing that I enjoyed most was all of the differant little things that you can do to make you podcast even more creative. The thing that I did not like about creating the podcast was that my collection of pictures did not stay with my movie. I saved them to my user and they stayed there but not with my movie so I would have to move them each time I worked on my podcast. The biggest challenge that I had creating my podcast was inporting my pictures from my personal camera into the computer. I eventually got them in but because the computer does not have the spasific softwere I had to convert my movies. I have learned almost every thing that we have gone over. How to use Move Maker and all of the gadigets. Before we started our lesson I didn't know any thing else about podcast besides they were like a movie.

    I did my podcast on NFL Football, and i enjoyed it but I had many challenges on the way. The things I liked most about it, was that it was a video bassically and it isnt as boring as a slide show. I also enjoyed it because I learned about podcasts and now I can now do them on my own. I also had very many challenges on the way. The challenges I had were trying to follow the copyright laws because I have never done it before so I thought we could do anything. Another challenge was finding music, pictures, and videos for my podcast. It was hard finding those things because my podcast was on the NFL so it was all copyrighted and hard to find and use it. Other challenges were little like finding things and trying to work with movie maker on the computer, but other than the challenges I really enjoyed working with my podcast.

    I really enjoyed learning about general George S. Patton and how to use movie maker. The bad thing about the project is you could not use copyrighted images. If you would, people could catch you and sue you for it. So I had to use public domain pictures or use wikipedia. This was probobly the coolest thing I have learned and done on a computer.

    The thing I enjoed the best with doing the podcasts was that you can do your own topic and that there are so many different effects and ways to do the podcast. The thing that I found that I liked the least was that you had to watch what you put into your podcast. The videos and pictres could bot be copyrighted. I found that my biggest challenge in creating my podcast was the timing. I haad a hard time in having the needed time. I have learned that you can do just about anything with creating a podcast. It was a lot of fun and anyone can do it.

    The podcast was a fun part of this class. I liked the fact that we could choose our own topic. The only part I dont like is the fact that it has to be between 2 and half to 3 minutes. I am having a little trouble with making good timing. The biggest challenge was the timing. I learned how to make a podcast and what a podcast actually was. I had no idea what a podcast was before we started to create one. Overall, I enjoyed making a podcast on any topic we wanted.

    I loved doing the blog. It was great to put all my pictures/video/narration into one thing and adding my own twist and personality. I didn't like that some of my pictures and sound wouldn't always go together. It was frustrating. The biggest challenge was making sure i had every aspect of my report in it. I learned if you don't have patience you do not get everything you want done the way you want it.

    I really enjoyed creating my podcast. It was fun playing around with all of the transitions and fonts. However I did not enjoy not being able to choose any kind of music due to the copyright law. The biggest challenge I faced was making sure all of my speaking and slides matched up to go at the correct time. By creating this podcast it really showed me a great way to present information, in a way that I never used before.

    I enjoyed makin a podcast and the best thing was adding sound and trying to find the short bits of songs. so them there not copy writted. That was fun, but i didnt find adding the credits fun. You have to activate them and put them in you podcast. I did'nt like that at all.
    The biggest challenge was creating it on time, and trying to have the correct amount of time.I learned that podcast's are short videos about a topic that is short and sweet and to the point.

    I enjoyed everything about the podcast. If I had to pick my favorite thing I had to do, I would pick editing the video. I think that that was the most interesting thing to do in movie maker. Finding public domain images was the thing that I liked the least. It is very hard to find pictures like that about Ice Hockey. The biggest challenge while creating my podcast was saving it as a wmv file. I couldn't really figure it out. I had to ask for help from my mom to help me save it. I really learned everything about podcasts now because I have not done anything like this before. I had a lot of fun making the podcast.

    The thing I enjoyed about creating my podcast was using Moviemaker. I never really used movie maker before, so it was kind of cool.

    The thing I didn't like most about this blog having to research everything. I had to find the pictures and get the web addresses. It was too much for me.

    The biggest challange was finding what parts of the video to use in the podcast. I could only use 18 sec. so I had to choose carefully.

    Before doing this project, I didn't know how to use movie maker. We never used it before I took this class.

    When I created my podcast the thing I liked the most was changing the color schemes and word font to make the slide look cool.

    The thing I like the least was trying to figure out how to put slides in the right place and how long to run them for.

    The biggest challenge I came across when making my podcast was finding pictures and animation that would go good with the Samurai. It seemed like I would never find the right picture or information.

    The one thing that I learned is that you have to be patient and think before you type the information is. Podcasts are a really fun way to learn new information by watching a video and listening to music. I also didn't know you could stick them on your ipod.

    Personally, I believe that the transitions were the best part of the podcast. I strongly dislike having to search for a video for my podcast. My biggest challenge was converting a song from .mp3 format to .wav format. I have learned that you can subscribe to different podcasts. Thankyou for teaching this to us, Mrs Wiscount.

    I enjoyed learning about another Windows Application because I like making cool projects and now I can make videos for my projects. I disliked formatting video because I was unsure of the format and it seemed like a weird fit in my podcast. Finding music was the biggest challenge because my topic didn't really have a type of music connected to it. I learned how to use movie maker so this was a pretty big lesson for me.

    Somethings i enjoyed about working on the podcast was being able to work on video transitions and picking pictures for my blog. I like writing the copyrights the least for this project. The most challenging thing for me was to transfer images to my podcast. I learned how to work with the program moviemaker.

    The most I enjoyed when creating my podcast was collecting the pictures, audio, and video. I am the type of person that pays attention to visuals. Although the least I liked is using public domain, execpt there is no way around that. My biggest challenge when creating my podcast was attempting to find pictures sized large enough for a nice clean view versus pixelated pictures. I learned mostly about copyright and consequences it comes with.

    I really enjoyed putting the information that I knew about the piano into a podcast. My podcast now allows other people to learn about the piano in a fun and interesting way. The timing of all of my slides was the aspect of this project that I enjoyed the least. The biggest challenge I faced when I created my podcast was the time limit. I feel like if I had more time, I could have made my podcast even better. This project has taught me how to obey copyright rules. I used a lot of my media from public domain, which helped me to obey copyright.

    I liked picking the colors and effects for the podcast the most. Finding pictures was my least favorite because my choices were very limited. The biggest challenge was finding a video. The main thing that I learned from this assignment is that it's very hard to find good pictures, when you're following the rules.

    Creating the podcast was pretty fun. We were allowed to pick our own topic and put any sounds we wanted to on it. Finding the pictures to put on the podcast was also fun. It made us such for the right one.

    The thing I liked least about the podcast was making sure everything fit normally. If you wanted to add an other slide you had to move everything you once did on the podcast.

    The biggest challenge in creating my podcast was finding a video of a cake or something pastry related. It was hard to convert the videos I did find so I didnt know what to do for them.

    I didnt know how to create a podcast ever. Learning how to do it was fun. I now know how to make a movie and Ill probably be making more for fun.

    What I enjoyed the most about making a podcast was making a movie about the sport that i love playing. My least favorite thing about the podcast was having to use only public domain pictures and using 30 seconds of video. The biggest challenge was making it only a max of three minutes long. That you can add mp3 music for a certain song instead of playing the song until it's over.

    The thing that I enjoyed the most about the podcasts was that I could do what ever I wanted about my topic. The thing that I liked the least was that you could not put anything that was copyrighted into your work. The thing that was most challenging was to do it in the time we had. I learned that it is harder to make a movie than I thought.

    I enjoyed the fact that we got to make a movie, it was really fun. But i did not like that we could not get pictures from google. The biggest challenge in my opinion was finding good music, but luckily sound snap helped with that. Plus, I now know how to use windows media player. I think it was our best project out of all of them.

    I enjoyed all of the creative freedom when making my podcast. The thing I liked the least was trying to find good media while remaining copyright free. The biggest challenge was trying to make my movie two minutes and thirty seconds. I learned anything on wiki commons is within public domain.

    I was looking forward to working on my movie the day Mrs. Wiscount started talking about it. The thing I enjoyed most was getting all of my music together. I love music and finding all the right music to fit my topic was an adventure. But, for every like there is usually a disklike. One thing I did not like was the time limit. Somtimes I was over by too much or under by a few seconds. One challenge I faced was that movie maker would freeze and not load my pictures into my collections. One thing I learned by doing this project was how to use the movie maker program. I have movie maker at home and I did not know how to use it before this project. I am excited to start creating my own movies at home.

    There are many things that were fun on the podcast. One thing that was fun is the vozme it was fun to make words. The worst thing was you couldn't use the copyright pictures. The biggest challenge was opening your podcast up. The thing that I learned is you can't rush moviemaker.
