Digital Story Telling Project Below is a short story about a dog that I found near my house. I experienced problems trying to get the dog to come to me.But in the end the dog named Suzy was able to go home to her owner.

While creating my digital story telling project I learned how to use the Ken Burns effect using imovie. The Ken Burns effect allows still images to be mobile. The effect enables one to focus on a portion of the image and throughout a given time frame, say 5 seconds, the image will move and end focusing on a different portion of the image. This effect can be used to create all types of movement including left, right, up, down, and even forwards and backwards. As a beginner to the Ken Burns effect I had to learn how to use it on my own. I mainly experimented with each image and clip section until I had achieved the correct movement; by the time I was finished I was able to achieve the effect I wanted with ease. The Ken Burns effect allowed me to make my Story Of A Lost Dog much more appealing while only using still images. I was actually able to create a movement effect that cooresponded to what was happening in the story. The Ken Burns effect is great; it made my story more interesting, and understandable.
