My digital story
"People don't swim becuase its fun. Ask **ANY** swimmer, most of them **hate** it, but they couldn't imagine their life with out it. Its part of them, the __love/hate relationship__, countless pairs of goggles, water, gatorade, and the coaches you hate but appreciate. They live for the way you become a //family// with your team, they live for the **countless songs** you sing in your head while swimming all those laps. //They live for the competition, they live for the friends, the practices, the memories, the pain, and its who they are." -J//ohn Bruenning

With the project I completely learned on my own how to use PhotoStory for the PC. It worked very well and was quite interesting to try out and work with. I learned how to add animation to all of my pictures. I didn't like that they all would do the same thing when it switched between pictures. So to do so there was a link to click. Each time you wanted to add something new you had to click on the different picture and then add your animation. Also I learned how to put music on the project so it ran throughout the whole thing in the background. This was not just one track but three. To do so you had to find a good spot in your music and find a good spot in the project to have a switch of music. I also had to figure out what songs i wanted and if they would end correctly. I also had to figure out how to add a new track to the project and have it take the place of the other ones. In the end I found out that all you had to do was click on the slide that you wanted the old music to end and the new music to start and then insert the new track there. It was a very fun and easy program to work and I enjoyed using it very much. P.S. I also learned how to upload to YouTube. media type="youtube" key="SXoYAkin6Wg" height="405" width="500"
