Flip+Cameras

=This page will guide you through using the FLIP camera to shoot video of your class or activities in your class. =


 * ===Using the FLIP camera is the simpliest way to put video on a blog or web page. The only thing you do with the FLIP camera is point and push the red button! No software is needed for the FLIP camera - the software is on the camera. ===


 * ===Once you are finished shooting your video, plug the FLIP camera into the USB port ===




 * ===The Flip camera software will automatically once it is in the USB port and load on to your computer ===
 * ===iPhoto may open on your computer, but you can close out of it. ===
 * ===Under FlipShare go to Create to make a movie ===




 * ===A new window will open on your computer screen like the one below: ===




 * ===This is where you will drop the video clips you made. You can put them in any order you want. However, if you want the clips in the order you shot them, the first clip you shot will be the last one in the set. ===


 * ===Next you add music to your video or the sound on your video - your choice. The software gives you four choices or you can load music from your computer like iTunes. ===




 * ===Depending on the length of your video, the FlipShare program will take some time to process your video. Be sure to look in the lower left hand corner to determine if FlipShare is finished processing. ===


 * ===Once the video is done processing, click on Share, click on Online, click on YouTube. You will need a YouTube account - which is free. YouTube is a great place to store your videos as it will not take up memory on our servers or your computer.===
