Made My Own Film Poster!

Image
HELLO DEAR FOLLOWERS1 Today I'm here to present you another thing that I made. I made a movie poster! Yay! Here it is. Seems cool right? For my Educational Technologies course (you know) I used some specific tools to create podcast, film review website, padlet, digital story etc. What I create today is a movie poster. This poster is the illustration of the Turkish book 'Oğullar ve Rencide Ruhlar' written by Alper CANIGÜZ. I used Canva  while prepearing this poster. Canva is a designing web tool in which you can create blog graphic, album cover, instagram post, invitation and many things. Besides it is free. There are many web tools for designing but I think, Canva is the best among them.  How about trying it to design a movie poster better than mine? C'mon! .ZeyUs.

There are some key elements if you are making digital stories; Point of view. What is the main point of the story? A dramatic question. A key question that keeps the viewer's attention. Your gifted voice. (some of us are unlucky about it ;) ) Personalizing the story to help the audience understand the context. Impact of the soundtrack.  Pacing. The rhythm of the story. We, in our Educational Technologies course, created our own digital story as a project with my classmates  Gizem YILDIRIM and Hazal ULUDAĞ . We use Pixton Storyboard Maker website for this project.We made editing, voice recording together and found proper sound effects. It was a bit challenging but highly enjoyable :) We named our digital story as ' DAY DREAM '. It is a story of a d...

Do You Know Padlet?

HELLO DEAR FOLLOWERS!  Here I am with my Educational Technology course homework: Padlet. (Yay!) Padlet is a website in which you can create online bulletin board and use it to share some information about any topic. You can simply write the informations or you can add links, images, videos and files to make your board more professional. For this Padlet homework we came together with my friends; Ayşe Ceren ÖZTÜRK, Hande ÖZTÜRK and Şebnem SÖNMEZ . We chose our topic (Violence Against Women In Turkey) and started working. Finally we created the padlet. You can find our board below. Don't forget to comment on it. It seems that's all for now :) Thanks for reading. .ZeyUs.

HELLO MY DEAR FOLLOWERS Today I am  going to talk about film reviewing. In Educational Technologies class our teacher , Gökçe KURT , wanted us to review a film via wikipage and with a partner. We learned what is wiki and how to prepare a wiki page on the Internet. So I chose Cansu (TURHAN)  (actually she chose me) giggling and we chose a film. The film is Fight Club.  Then we started. Here is the wikipage link.                                                       Blog link of my partner you can click here . It's a really remarkable blog , you should follow it.                                                        .ZeyUs.
