Mybrainshark is a place where you can easily create videos from your PowerPoint slides...but not only from PowerPoint slides! You can also add your voice to documents, a series of photos, and even voice over to a video or else the video with its own sounds. It is a fantastic free programme! So open Mybrainshark on http://www.brainshark.com
My first attempt: How to make a Mybrainshark
My first attempt at a Mybrainshark was just to upload a PowerPoint on how to make a Mybrainshark and add voice to it. I just loved how easy it was and how you could read your speaker notes from the PowerPoint on screen as you narrated.
My second attempt: How to make a blog
In my second attempt I became more ambitious:
a) I added a PowerPoint with voice on how to make a blog (in case you have come to the conclusion that you need your own blog to embed tools as you make them!)
b) After add the PowerPoint I also added a movie with its own voice which was exciting - because that meant I had added two different media.
c) Thirdly I added an attachment which was the PowerPoint I used for the webinar last night. By the way, if you hover your mouse at the top of this page you'll see the attachment - this evening's presentation! Anyone can download the attachment by just clicking on it. How is that!!!

They could, for example, detail information about how the film was made, where it was filmed and why they directed it in a certain way.
