Introduction

Every now and then I throw a little short clip into my the middle of my slides to make a point or to segue (hey that's the name of my dog!) to the next idea. It takes a couple of minutes to take the source video, edit it, publish it to youtube, and download it as a .flv video (because SMART Notebook only takes .flv), so I figured I'd save everyone else some time and just post my videos here!

If you have an idea for a segue clip then just let me know some how (I haven't looked at all the features of blogger) and I'll see if I can get it done. Alternatively, if you'd like to contribute your segue to I Have a Dog Named Segue, then let me know and I'll get that all set up!

  1. Nice work! I also used the clip of Peter Griffin in feety pajamas to introduce electrostatics and charging by friction.

    What I would love to know is how you edit Youtube videos to isolate the clip you want. So far I've only been using them as-is, downloading the .flv from www.keepvid.com

  2. So far I've had the source videos in .wmv or .avi already on my computer. I use Windows Movie Maker (but I used to have Adobe Premiere which was much better) to edit the videos, then I load them on to youtube and download it as a .flv.

    I have to find a program that converts .flv to .wmv. I'm sure theres one out there but I haven't needed it yet.
