Changed the blurry photos where possible. Sounds weird in some spots. Something to work on in video 2. Enjoy.

Hi Maureen,
I still think that you video is great! Your voice is very engaging and clear. You made me want to look at what you were talking about. I can see that you improved some of the images. The content was good, too. The only suggestion that I would make is that the font on some of the credits could be bigger. They were a little hard to read. The credits scrolled a bit too fast to allow time to read everything. I don't know if you have control over how fast it scrolls. Hope I was helpful. Great job!
I really like it! The narration is great, appropriate music and it would be a great intro if you were starting a lesson with one of his books. (actually using this as a model it could be used for any author)
Some of the slides I would have liked to see fully. I know it's a pain in iMovie to get them to fit but I think if you crop them in photoshop or fireworks so they are smaller you'd have a better view of them.
I didn't read the credits until I read Kristy's comment and I agree. Which also makes me think if you throw in a more eye catching color to then someone like me who skips over credits may have a better chance of watching them. :)
Maureen! LOVE this video! Well, I love Walter, too! I met him when I was teaching in the city - - I bet he'd love this video. The music is perfect, the images, your voice . . all great. Your voice is very clear and has great expression. I agree w/ Kristy and Joe about slowing down and enlarging the credits text. Beautiful work! I will use this next year when I introduce WDM in my 8th grade classes! R
You are fabulous. I absolutely loved your video. I actually learned something. I love the book Monster and now I know something about the author of that book. I loved how you flashed back to his childhood with childhood images. I loved your audio and thought it was captivating. I was interested the entire time, which is what is important if we want children to actually watch our entire videos. Also, your music was perfect!!! The only suggestion I have is to make the text larger for the photo credits at the end. GREAT JOB!!
