Vuvox has three different options to create your digital
story express, collage, and studio. I chose collage for my first endeavor.
The free multimedia site allows anyone to create
interactive stories from their photos, videos, text and audio clips. My first
was pretty basic, only editing the images however will develop my Vuvox skills
using the extra editing options. The editing features include;
•
Image Cut-out and Masking
tools
•
Layer positioning and
Compositing
•
Interactive 'Hot-spots',
providing links to media, text or other websites
•
Ability to add rich media
details and Text and Soundtrack
The collage function enables you to publish, embed, and
syndicate into websites, blogs and social networking sites to share your
creation... to a wider audience. There is a function to adjust privacy settings
if you don't want to share. I did have some troubles with aligning the audio and
visual. I found that you should avoid running the mouse over the control bar
(at the bottom) whilst playing. A lot of trial and error...
All in all I enjoyed the time creating my first Vuvox story,
it was created when asked who was an inspiration in my life… I hope you enjoy
my first (of hopefully many) digital stories.
As a pre-service teacher, I look forward to utilizing digital
stories in the classroom.
