a lot about, sort of, 00:00:28.810 --> 00:00:32.270 the theory of things, but I know you guys 00:00:32.270 --> 00:00:34.600 want to get into the practice. 00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:36.110 At the end of class, we have a lot 00:00:36.110 --> 00:00:37.892 of plastic elements in the back that Ceri 00:00:37.892 --> 00:00:39.100 will help you guys check out. 00:00:39.100 --> 00:00:41.502 Some cameras, mics, headphones, tripods. 00:00:41.502 --> 00:00:43.210 If you guys want to just use your iPhones 00:00:43.210 --> 00:00:47.080 for tonight's assignment, that's totally fine as well. 00:00:47.080 --> 00:00:50.410 Chris brought up a lot of really good points of just framing, 00:00:50.410 --> 00:00:51.760 practicalities of filming. 00:00:51.760 --> 00:00:55.485 I do want you to consider, though, that web video breaks 00:00:55.485 --> 00:00:57.320 a lot of these rules as well. 00:00:57.320 --> 00:01:01.590 So you'll notice that Sideshow doesn't do the rule of thirds 00:01:01.590 --> 00:01:03.000 framing at all. 00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:04.120 Hankering just-- 00:01:04.120 --> 00:01:06.190 AUDIENCE: All rules are made to be broken. 00:01:06.190 --> 00:01:07.960 ELIZABETH CHOE: Yes, yes. 00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:09.740 But he does that very intentionally. 00:01:09.740 --> 00:01:12.380 A lot of it is because-- the way his videos go, 00:01:12.380 --> 00:01:14.970 he'll look to the side and a little image will pop up. 00:01:14.970 --> 00:01:17.280 So I think part of what he does that is to leave room 00:01:17.280 --> 00:01:19.370 for some of those visuals. 00:01:19.370 --> 00:01:23.510 And Vsauce does it because he's just super up-close. 00:01:23.510 --> 00:01:25.260 It's a little weird to do a rule of thirds 00:01:25.260 --> 00:01:27.910 when you're so up-close because you don't have a background 00:01:27.910 --> 00:01:29.440 to get rid of so much. 00:01:29.440 --> 00:01:32.080 So don't feel like you have to adhere to a rule 00:01:32.080 --> 00:01:33.830 just because we said, you have to do this, 00:01:33.830 --> 00:01:34.790 you have to do this. 00:01:34.790 --> 00:01:36.360 Thoughtfulness is one of the values, 00:01:36.360 --> 00:01:39.036 so as long as you justify it in your reflection 00:01:39.036 --> 00:01:42.530 or in your assignments somehow, it's totally fine. 00:01:42.530 --> 00:01:47.024 So for today's assignment, in addition to the two readings 00:01:47.024 --> 00:01:49.315 that are online-- and don't worry, they're pretty short 00:01:49.315 --> 00:01:52.130 and they're fun-- we're going to have you guys make 00:01:52.130 --> 00:01:57.211 a video on, basically, a circus sideshow pitch about a video 00:01:57.211 --> 00:01:59.710 that you're eventually going to make for your final project. 00:01:59.710 --> 00:02:01.390 And it's OK if this ends up changing, 00:02:01.390 --> 00:02:03.598 it's just an exercise to get you guys started, to get 00:02:03.598 --> 00:02:05.280 you familiar with the camera. 00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:08.740 Don't worry about doing crazy camera moves or anything. 00:02:08.740 --> 00:02:11.570 If all you want to do tonight is to set up your tripod 00:02:11.570 --> 00:02:14.899 and mic up, and deliver your pitch, that's totally fine. 00:02:14.899 --> 00:02:16.440 We just want you guys to get familiar 00:02:16.440 --> 00:02:18.200 with all the equipment. 00:02:18.200 --> 00:02:22.140 But, basically, it is going to be selling an idea or topic 00:02:22.140 --> 00:02:26.520 about science, technology, engineering, or math that 00:02:26.520 --> 00:02:29.730 should convince someone to want to watch your eventual video. 00:02:29.730 --> 00:02:31.650 And again, it's OK if you change the idea. 00:02:31.650 --> 00:02:35.470 I do want you guys to brainstorm three ideas in addition 00:02:35.470 --> 00:02:37.350 to the pitch video that you make. 00:02:37.350 --> 00:02:40.130 You don't have to post them online or write them down. 00:02:40.130 --> 00:02:43.150 Just have them in your head for class tomorrow 00:02:43.150 --> 00:02:46.040 because we're going to have some very special guests speakers 00:02:46.040 --> 00:02:49.150 first thing tomorrow, who will help you with these pitches. 00:02:49.150 --> 00:02:52.890 So to give you an idea of the type of thing 00:02:52.890 --> 00:02:54.560 that we're looking for. 00:02:54.560 --> 00:02:59.740 Again, don't necessarily copy this video exactly. 00:03:02.200 --> 00:03:05.580 [VIDEO PLAYBACK] 00:03:05.580 --> 00:03:07.644 -What is the most astounding fact 00:03:07.644 --> 00:03:09.560 that you can share with us about the universe? 00:03:12.580 --> 00:03:14.660 -The most astounding fact-- 00:03:14.660 --> 00:03:16.100 -The most astounding fact. 00:03:16.100 --> 00:03:22.910 - --is the knowledge that the atoms that comprise life 00:03:22.910 --> 00:03:24.020 on earth. 00:03:24.020 --> 00:03:27.810 The atoms that make up the human body 00:03:27.810 --> 00:03:32.010 are traceable to the crucibles that 00:03:32.010 --> 00:03:38.440 cooked light elements into heavy elements in their core, 00:03:38.440 --> 00:03:40.580 under extreme temperatures and pressures. 00:03:40.580 --> 00:03:44.500 These stars, the high mass ones among them, 00:03:44.500 --> 00:03:47.960 went unstable in their later years. 00:03:47.960 --> 00:03:49.670 They collapsed and then exploded, 00:03:49.670 --> 00:03:55.150 scattering their enriched guts across the galaxy. 00:03:55.150 --> 00:04:00.730 Guts made of carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, 00:04:00.730 --> 00:04:03.760 and all the fundamental ingredients of life itself. 00:04:03.760 --> 00:04:07.880 These ingredients become part of gas clouds that condense. 00:04:07.880 --> 00:04:08.720 Collapse. 00:04:08.720 --> 00:04:12.810 Form the next generation of solar systems, 00:04:12.810 --> 00:04:14.170 stars with orbiting planets. 00:04:14.170 --> 00:04:18.005 And those planets now have the ingredients for life itself. 00:04:20.589 --> 00:04:23.570 So when I look up at the night sky-- and I 00:04:23.570 --> 00:04:28.390 know that yes, we are part of this universe. 00:04:28.390 --> 00:04:32.020 We are in this universe, but perhaps 00:04:32.020 --> 00:04:35.370 more important than both of those facts, 00:04:35.370 --> 00:04:38.990 is that the universe is in us. 00:04:38.990 --> 00:04:42.628 When I reflect on that fact, I look up-- 00:04:42.628 --> 00:04:44.503 many people feel small, because they're small 00:04:44.503 --> 00:04:48.120 and the universe is big-- but I feel big. 00:04:48.120 --> 00:04:54.000 Because my atoms came from those stars. 00:04:54.000 --> 00:04:54.667 [END PLAYBACK] 00:04:54.667 --> 00:04:56.250 ELIZABETH CHOE: So obviously you don't 00:04:56.250 --> 00:04:58.900 have to do a super dramatic thing like Neil deGrasse 00:04:58.900 --> 00:04:59.800 Tyson did. 00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.216 Again, don't feel like you have to go home and contemplate 00:05:02.216 --> 00:05:05.240 on life's mysteries, and how evolution is just 00:05:05.240 --> 00:05:07.200 this beautiful thing that happens on earth, 00:05:07.200 --> 00:05:09.826 and it's an amazing thing or whatever. 00:05:09.826 --> 00:05:11.450 But the reason why I wanted to show you 00:05:11.450 --> 00:05:15.150 that video is because the actual plastic elements of making that 00:05:15.150 --> 00:05:16.570 were pretty straightforward. 00:05:16.570 --> 00:05:18.580 Pretty simple, just two cameras on a tripod. 00:05:18.580 --> 00:05:20.020 Nothing too crazy. 00:05:20.020 --> 00:05:23.400 But he still, hopefully, manages to engage you somewhat. 00:05:23.400 --> 00:05:25.822 I mean, I personally wanted to keep watching, 00:05:25.822 --> 00:05:26.780 keep learning about it. 00:05:26.780 --> 00:05:29.700 That's partially because of his persona, which 00:05:29.700 --> 00:05:31.070 some people find off-putting. 00:05:31.070 --> 00:05:34.670 So again, it's a matter of taste. 00:05:34.670 --> 00:05:36.900 What he does here is just, sort of, 00:05:36.900 --> 00:05:40.210 rattle off this theme of-- I think the thesis 00:05:40.210 --> 00:05:43.040 of this whole conversation that they have is 00:05:43.040 --> 00:05:45.417 that you take this misconception that we all 00:05:45.417 --> 00:05:47.000 think that we're part of the universe, 00:05:47.000 --> 00:05:49.970 but really the universe, and all the things that make it up, 00:05:49.970 --> 00:05:52.160 are inside of us. 00:05:52.160 --> 00:05:55.360 He has this sort of fact, or nugget, 00:05:55.360 --> 00:05:58.410 that he builds upon to create this bigger narrative. 00:05:58.410 --> 00:06:01.750 All right, so for Science Out Loud, George and I 00:06:01.750 --> 00:06:03.990 just did an episode on snot. 00:06:03.990 --> 00:06:06.520 And the way we started it way was-- 00:06:06.520 --> 00:06:08.830 one of my former professors here, Katharina Ribbeck. 00:06:08.830 --> 00:06:11.715 Her lab studies mucus, and I was reading about her 00:06:11.715 --> 00:06:13.360 in Popular Science, because she just 00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:15.397 got this big feature in it. 00:06:15.397 --> 00:06:16.980 And one of the facts they talked about 00:06:16.980 --> 00:06:20.310 was that your body produces over a gallon of mucus a day, 00:06:20.310 --> 00:06:22.890 which I thought was, like-- how does that happen? 00:06:22.890 --> 00:06:23.740 That's disgusting. 00:06:23.740 --> 00:06:27.510 We think of snot as the stuff that oozes out of us when we're 00:06:27.510 --> 00:06:30.380 sick, and the stuff that we blow out into tissues 00:06:30.380 --> 00:06:31.440 and throw away. 00:06:31.440 --> 00:06:34.190 But actually it's so important that our body makes 00:06:34.190 --> 00:06:35.850 over a gallon of it a day. 00:06:35.850 --> 00:06:38.180 And that it does more than just come out of our nose 00:06:38.180 --> 00:06:40.210 when we're sick or when we're crying. 00:06:40.210 --> 00:06:42.762 That it's doing things, like providing moisture 00:06:42.762 --> 00:06:45.220 for our bodies, which doesn't sound like a big deal, right? 00:06:45.220 --> 00:06:47.240 Until you think about your body without mucus. 00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:49.156 That your eyes would dry out, and you wouldn't 00:06:49.156 --> 00:06:51.810 be able to swallow because your esophagus would get ripped up 00:06:51.810 --> 00:06:53.690 every time you tried to eat something. 00:06:53.690 --> 00:06:56.970 And then you think of mucus of being more than just this sort 00:06:56.970 --> 00:07:00.630 of bodily waste that comes out of you, 00:07:00.630 --> 00:07:04.920 but really this amazing thing that takes care of you 00:07:04.920 --> 00:07:07.130 in a way that's so important that you 00:07:07.130 --> 00:07:09.390 make over gallon of it a day. 00:07:09.390 --> 00:07:12.220 And that sort of became the pitch 00:07:12.220 --> 00:07:15.800 the circus sideshow, step right up type of thing that 00:07:15.800 --> 00:07:18.330 informed the rest of our video. 00:07:18.330 --> 00:07:19.870 And so that's the kind of thing I 00:07:19.870 --> 00:07:22.490 want you guys to be thinking about tonight, 00:07:22.490 --> 00:07:23.930 and want you guys to record. 00:07:23.930 --> 00:07:28.830 Now we very well could have had you guys just write a pitch, 00:07:28.830 --> 00:07:31.207 but I think it would be more fun to make a video. 00:07:31.207 --> 00:07:32.790 I mean, I think it's good for you guys 00:07:32.790 --> 00:07:35.370 to get used to using the cameras and the plastic elements. 00:07:35.370 --> 00:07:40.380 So again don't worry about-- are my camera 00:07:40.380 --> 00:07:41.340 movements good enough? 00:07:41.340 --> 00:07:43.839 You don't even have to move the camera if you don't want to. 00:07:43.839 --> 00:07:45.960 Feel free to play around with it if you want. 00:07:45.960 --> 00:07:50.200 But really focus on clarity for this assignment. 00:07:50.200 --> 00:07:52.490 So set up the camera in such a way, 00:07:52.490 --> 00:07:54.050 and set up the lighting in such a way 00:07:54.050 --> 00:07:55.874 that you're very clearly visible. 00:07:55.874 --> 00:07:58.040 We are going to give you these little lavalier mics, 00:07:58.040 --> 00:07:59.860 so make sure that your audio's very clear. 00:07:59.860 --> 00:08:03.390 Those are going to be the priorities for this assignment. 00:08:03.390 --> 00:08:05.690 And then make your pitch very engaging, 00:08:05.690 --> 00:08:07.885 and think of three backup ideas just in case. 00:08:07.885 --> 00:08:10.824 Does that sound good? 00:08:10.824 --> 00:08:11.990 I had one more example, too. 00:08:11.990 --> 00:08:12.360 We can show it. 00:08:12.360 --> 00:08:13.026 [VIDEO PLAYBACK] 00:08:13.026 --> 00:08:14.590 [MUSIC PLAYING] 00:08:16.380 --> 00:08:18.815 -Hello, this is Hank Green, and welcome to SciShow. 00:08:18.815 --> 00:08:21.440 You might have noticed I talk a lot about how great plants are. 00:08:21.440 --> 00:08:22.590 And why shouldn't I? 00:08:22.590 --> 00:08:23.930 They're autotrophs. 00:08:23.930 --> 00:08:26.820 They can harness the raw, untamed power of the sun 00:08:26.820 --> 00:08:28.700 and use it to make food for themselves. 00:08:28.700 --> 00:08:29.980 Pretty impressive. 00:08:29.980 --> 00:08:31.330 So why can't animals do it? 00:08:31.330 --> 00:08:33.459 Well oddly enough, some of them do. 00:08:33.459 --> 00:08:35.250 And in just the past few years, researchers 00:08:35.250 --> 00:08:36.710 have been discovering animals that 00:08:36.710 --> 00:08:39.720 seem to be able to harvest sunlight for energy. 00:08:39.720 --> 00:08:42.720 Take for instance, the eastern emerald elysia, a sea slug that 00:08:42.720 --> 00:08:44.220 looks like a big floating leaf. 00:08:44.220 --> 00:08:46.500 It lives along the East Coast of the United States, 00:08:46.500 --> 00:08:49.150 where it just hangs out eating a specific kind of yellow-green 00:08:49.150 --> 00:08:49.560 al-- 00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:49.970 [END PLAYBACK] 00:08:49.970 --> 00:08:51.230 ELIZABETH CHOE: So I just wanted to show 00:08:51.230 --> 00:08:53.189 you that as an example of a style and delivery. 00:08:53.189 --> 00:08:55.230 It's very different from the Neil deGrasse Tyson, 00:08:55.230 --> 00:08:57.740 but again, same concept. 00:08:57.740 --> 00:09:00.040 So don't feel like you have to be Neil deGrasse Tyson. 00:09:00.040 --> 00:09:02.581 Don't feel like you have to be Hank Green and talk like this, 00:09:02.581 --> 00:09:06.081 and jump back and forth between, like, closeup and wide screen. 00:09:06.081 --> 00:09:07.580 But hopefully that gives you an idea 00:09:07.580 --> 00:09:09.163 of what you guys need to make tonight. 00:09:09.163 --> 00:09:12.130 If you guys have any questions, I'll stick around after class. 00:09:12.130 --> 00:09:13.800 You can always email me too. 00:09:13.800 --> 00:09:18.570 So for tonight, stem pitch video. 00:09:18.570 --> 00:09:20.200 Ceri's going to come and talk now 00:09:20.200 --> 00:09:23.100 about what that process exactly looks like. 00:09:23.100 --> 00:09:27.057 But basically, always look at the online version 00:09:27.057 --> 00:09:29.640 of the syllabus, because I might tweak some things day to day, 00:09:29.640 --> 00:09:32.650 but the stuff for day one is totally up-to-date right now. 00:09:32.650 --> 00:09:35.840 You'll post yours stem pitch to Tumblr with the hashtag 00:09:35.840 --> 00:09:39.400 "dayonepitch" and a hashtag of your Kerberos ID, 00:09:39.400 --> 00:09:42.020 so that's-- all the SUTD students, 00:09:42.020 --> 00:09:44.005 you guys have an MIT ID, right? 00:09:44.005 --> 00:09:46.214 OK, so it's just your username. 00:09:46.214 --> 00:09:47.630 And then you'll post a daily blog, 00:09:47.630 --> 00:09:48.740 and that's going to happen every day. 00:09:48.740 --> 00:09:50.670 Just reflections of what happened in class. 00:09:50.670 --> 00:09:52.419 If you want to take pictures during class, 00:09:52.419 --> 00:09:55.150 if you want to record video tomorrow, feel free to. 00:09:55.150 --> 00:09:58.051 Tomorrow will be a great day to record video, just saying. 00:09:58.051 --> 00:10:00.330 And then there are two readings that I'd 00:10:00.330 --> 00:10:04.100 like you guys to annotate on Annotation Studio, which Ceri's 00:10:04.100 --> 00:10:05.820 going to show you right now, as well. 00:10:05.820 --> 00:10:09.250 And then just bring three other pitch ideas to class tomorrow. 00:10:09.250 --> 00:10:12.440 Did everyone get the email about class timing shifted up 00:10:12.440 --> 00:10:13.650 tomorrow? 00:10:13.650 --> 00:10:17.519 So if you guys want to show up at 12:10, 00:10:17.519 --> 00:10:19.060 that would be good, because our guest 00:10:19.060 --> 00:10:21.590 lecturers are coming at 12:15. 00:10:21.590 --> 00:10:24.640 And we'll end class at 3:15 tomorrow. 00:10:24.640 --> 00:10:26.650 CERI RILEY: This is Annotation Studio. 00:10:26.650 --> 00:10:29.320 It's on annotationstudio.org and it's 00:10:29.320 --> 00:10:32.630 where you're going to be doing your reading assignments. 00:10:32.630 --> 00:10:36.010 So what you need to do is just go to the website. 00:10:36.010 --> 00:10:38.180 Click sign up for sign in. 00:10:38.180 --> 00:10:40.640 And it's a really easy registration form. 00:10:40.640 --> 00:10:43.940 First name, last name, email, I use my MIT email. 00:10:43.940 --> 00:10:46.620 Affiliation, just put MIT. 00:10:46.620 --> 00:10:48.020 And a password. 00:10:48.020 --> 00:10:49.659 And the most important thing, so you 00:10:49.659 --> 00:10:51.450 can get the assignments in the first place, 00:10:51.450 --> 00:10:53.610 is to type in the class. 00:10:53.610 --> 00:10:57.590 So you just need to do 20219, press Enter, 00:10:57.590 --> 00:11:02.030 and it'll be blue, to like, confirm that you're in it. 00:11:02.030 --> 00:11:04.300 Read and accept the terms of service, check that box, 00:11:04.300 --> 00:11:05.960 and register. 00:11:05.960 --> 00:11:10.085 And so I'll show you what it looks like. 00:11:13.510 --> 00:11:17.029 So this is what you'll see when you sign in. 00:11:17.029 --> 00:11:18.570 You won't have any created documents, 00:11:18.570 --> 00:11:21.920 but you'll have assigned documents. 00:11:21.920 --> 00:11:24.720 The two that we want you to read and annotate 00:11:24.720 --> 00:11:27.620 are the first two-- "You Can't Make It on YouTube Anymore," 00:11:27.620 --> 00:11:29.580 and "This Will Revolutionize Education." 00:11:29.580 --> 00:11:32.100 You'll click on it, and it'll bring you 00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:34.530 to the document itself. 00:11:34.530 --> 00:11:36.780 So for example, this is the first one. 00:11:36.780 --> 00:11:40.410 And you'll be able to read along and highlight it, and add 00:11:40.410 --> 00:11:42.390 in your thoughts as you go along. 00:11:42.390 --> 00:11:45.850 So for example, you're reading it. 00:11:45.850 --> 00:11:47.820 You're reading about Hank Green, and how he 00:11:47.820 --> 00:11:50.200 was invited to New TeeVee Live. 00:11:50.200 --> 00:11:52.380 I was starting my own online media conference, 00:11:52.380 --> 00:11:54.930 and maybe you're thinking, well what is that? 00:11:54.930 --> 00:11:59.640 So you can say, does anyone-- 00:11:59.640 --> 00:12:03.560 [TYPING] 00:12:06.510 --> 00:12:10.790 And then add some tags. 00:12:10.790 --> 00:12:13.870 I don't know what tags really do, but then everyone can see 00:12:13.870 --> 00:12:16.590 that annotation and who did it. 00:12:16.590 --> 00:12:18.880 And I'm not sure, because we haven't played around 00:12:18.880 --> 00:12:20.450 with this software too much, but you probably 00:12:20.450 --> 00:12:22.616 will be able to comment on each other's annotations. 00:12:22.616 --> 00:12:25.790 So if for some reason someone poses a question like this, 00:12:25.790 --> 00:12:28.030 and someone knows the answer, it's Vid Con. 00:12:28.030 --> 00:12:29.380 Then they can respond. 00:12:29.380 --> 00:12:31.079 You can add pictures, you can add links. 00:12:31.079 --> 00:12:32.870 And it's just really handy because then you 00:12:32.870 --> 00:12:35.925 can see people's idea flows as they go through the document. 00:12:35.925 --> 00:12:37.508 ELIZABETH CHOE: Just so you guys know, 00:12:37.508 --> 00:12:40.926 we're grading the annotation just on a three point scale. 00:12:40.926 --> 00:12:44.030 If you put effort into it, you put marginal, 00:12:44.030 --> 00:12:45.820 if you did it at all. 00:12:45.820 --> 00:12:49.060 Don't feel like that you have to spend hours and hours on this. 00:12:49.060 --> 00:12:53.620 These readings are pretty fun, I mean, one was posted on Medium. 00:12:53.620 --> 00:12:56.488 It's not a super dry academic platform. 00:12:56.488 --> 00:12:58.400 And the other one's a YouTube video. 00:12:58.400 --> 00:13:00.600 So just respond honestly. 00:13:00.600 --> 00:13:05.132 Don't feel like we're expecting huge analyses of these, 00:13:05.132 --> 00:13:08.450 but we do want to see you guys creating it and taking 00:13:08.450 --> 00:13:10.350 [INAUDIBLE]. 00:13:10.350 --> 00:13:14.650 CERI RILEY: OK, the other thing I was going to show you guys. 00:13:14.650 --> 00:13:19.900 How many of you have used Tumblr before as a platform? 00:13:19.900 --> 00:13:22.060 OK, so a couple. 00:13:22.060 --> 00:13:27.180 So that's going to be our main blog, I guess, for this class. 00:13:27.180 --> 00:13:31.420 I've sent you guys all an email invitation to join the website 00:13:31.420 --> 00:13:34.100 and be able to use it. 00:13:34.100 --> 00:13:35.930 This is what the main website looks 00:13:35.930 --> 00:13:39.720 like, you should have already looked at it earlier today. 00:13:39.720 --> 00:13:41.420 The main things are that there are 00:13:41.420 --> 00:13:44.120 links on this top bar to the stellar, which we probably 00:13:44.120 --> 00:13:47.180 won't use, Annotation Studio, and an ask box. 00:13:47.180 --> 00:13:51.130 And so I'll be on the Tumblr monitoring it all the time. 00:13:51.130 --> 00:13:54.480 So you can ask questions there. 00:13:54.480 --> 00:13:56.580 There's lists of all our Kerberoses, 00:13:56.580 --> 00:14:03.510 so we'll organize our posts with your MIT ID. 00:14:03.510 --> 00:14:05.740 Then it's also organized so you can 00:14:05.740 --> 00:14:08.910 look at specific assignments, like day one, daily blogs, 00:14:08.910 --> 00:14:12.370 and things like that, which are all sorted and dependent on you 00:14:12.370 --> 00:14:15.240 guys tagging your posts correctly. 00:14:15.240 --> 00:14:17.280 And then there's also reference material. 00:14:17.280 --> 00:14:19.330 This bottom tab on the left side bar 00:14:19.330 --> 00:14:21.537 is probably most useful for you guys. 00:14:21.537 --> 00:14:23.620 I can't scroll down right now because there aren't 00:14:23.620 --> 00:14:26.280 enough posts, but it has things like a list 00:14:26.280 --> 00:14:28.400 of all the assignments that Elizabeth will post. 00:14:28.400 --> 00:14:32.990 Answered questions, and a how to use Tumblr and upload 00:14:32.990 --> 00:14:35.870 videos on YouTube, which I'll go through, hopefully, really 00:14:35.870 --> 00:14:39.600 quickly, so you guys don't have to stay too long. 00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:42.290 For those of you who haven't used Tumblr, when you login, 00:14:42.290 --> 00:14:44.820 when you accept the invitation to join the blog, 00:14:44.820 --> 00:14:45.860 it'll look like this. 00:14:45.860 --> 00:14:47.225 This is your dashboard. 00:14:47.225 --> 00:14:49.850 I have multiple accounts, and so if you have multiple accounts, 00:14:49.850 --> 00:14:53.240 you have to go up here, and choose MIT 219. 00:14:53.240 --> 00:14:56.150 And this is going to be exactly what your dashboard is 00:14:56.150 --> 00:14:58.270 going to look like. 00:14:58.270 --> 00:15:03.270 And so, from here, you can make different types of posts. 00:15:03.270 --> 00:15:07.990 We're probably going to use two most often, text and a video. 00:15:07.990 --> 00:15:11.645 And so for a text post, you just click Text post. 00:15:11.645 --> 00:15:12.645 You can give it a title. 00:15:16.967 --> 00:15:18.050 Put something in the body. 00:15:22.880 --> 00:15:30.692 And we request that you tag things with specific names 00:15:30.692 --> 00:15:31.900 depending on the assignments. 00:15:31.900 --> 00:15:34.720 So Elizabeth gave examples of what 00:15:34.720 --> 00:15:38.180 we want you to do for your daily blogs, which is "day one", 00:15:38.180 --> 00:15:42.550 or whatever data is and your MIT Kerberos. 00:15:42.550 --> 00:15:45.420 And so for example, if this was my daily blog for today, 00:15:45.420 --> 00:15:48.780 I would type in "day one", enter, and then 00:15:48.780 --> 00:15:50.425 my Kerberos, which is ceriley. 00:15:53.360 --> 00:15:57.320 And it'll be different for your video 00:15:57.320 --> 00:16:01.360 that you end up uploading to the site. 00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:02.860 And you can include images in this. 00:16:02.860 --> 00:16:05.740 You can include other things, like links if need be, 00:16:05.740 --> 00:16:08.850 if you find that necessary to your blog. 00:16:08.850 --> 00:16:10.000 And click Post. 00:16:10.000 --> 00:16:12.010 And then you should be able to see it right here 00:16:12.010 --> 00:16:15.224 on your dashboard, and also on the website 00:16:15.224 --> 00:16:16.140 if you go click there. 00:16:19.490 --> 00:16:25.000 OK so if you're making a video post-- how many of you 00:16:25.000 --> 00:16:29.830 have-- have any of you uploaded a video to YouTube before? 00:16:29.830 --> 00:16:31.345 OK, this is more familiar. 00:16:31.345 --> 00:16:33.220 ELIZABETH CHOE: Is there a way to just upload 00:16:33.220 --> 00:16:35.345 directly your files to Tumblr, right? 00:16:35.345 --> 00:16:36.720 CERI RILEY: There is, but there's 00:16:36.720 --> 00:16:38.372 a five minute limit per day. 00:16:38.372 --> 00:16:38.955 PROFESSOR: OK. 00:16:38.955 --> 00:16:42.420 So for tonight's assignment, if you just 00:16:42.420 --> 00:16:44.895 want to upload your raw video file to Tumblr, 00:16:44.895 --> 00:16:45.885 that's totally fine. 00:16:45.885 --> 00:16:49.350 But eventually, for some of the drafts, 00:16:49.350 --> 00:16:51.840 you may need to upload it to YouTube. 00:16:51.840 --> 00:16:55.410 CERI RILEY: So I'm just going to go through this really briefly. 00:16:55.410 --> 00:16:57.780 YouTube.com. 00:16:57.780 --> 00:17:00.160 If you have a Gmail account, you have a YouTube account 00:17:00.160 --> 00:17:00.770 automatically. 00:17:00.770 --> 00:17:04.380 They're linked because Google owns everything. 00:17:04.380 --> 00:17:06.930 Just click Upload in the upper right hand corner. 00:17:06.930 --> 00:17:07.975 Select files to upload. 00:17:11.010 --> 00:17:15.829 I have an example video that I shot this morning. 00:17:15.829 --> 00:17:17.622 OK, so here you have basic information. 00:17:17.622 --> 00:17:18.580 You can choose a title. 00:17:21.810 --> 00:17:22.393 A description. 00:17:27.940 --> 00:17:30.780 And this is-- you can tag it with anything you want. 00:17:30.780 --> 00:17:33.230 This is the key part, I think, to YouTube, 00:17:33.230 --> 00:17:35.149 is where-- how you want to upload it. 00:17:35.149 --> 00:17:37.440 So public means anyone can search it through the search 00:17:37.440 --> 00:17:38.648 bar, through Google searches. 00:17:38.648 --> 00:17:40.520 It'll be available to the public. 00:17:40.520 --> 00:17:42.980 Private means you have to enter certain email addresses, 00:17:42.980 --> 00:17:44.605 and those are the people who can access 00:17:44.605 --> 00:17:46.640 it using their Gmail accounts. 00:17:46.640 --> 00:17:49.340 I like doing unlisted personally because then, 00:17:49.340 --> 00:17:51.880 if you have the link to the video, you can access it. 00:17:51.880 --> 00:17:56.760 But if you don't have the link to the video, you can't see it. 00:17:56.760 --> 00:17:59.810 It keeps, like, my draft videos like this one, no one 00:17:59.810 --> 00:18:01.410 will want to watch it. 00:18:01.410 --> 00:18:04.410 Eight seconds of me talking to a phone camera. 00:18:04.410 --> 00:18:06.940 Private enough from, like, the rest of the world. 00:18:06.940 --> 00:18:10.130 But you can still post the link places, like the Tumblr, 00:18:10.130 --> 00:18:12.020 and have it be accessible. 00:18:12.020 --> 00:18:14.220 And so I like unlisted, but you can do whatever 00:18:14.220 --> 00:18:16.370 you want with your videos. 00:18:16.370 --> 00:18:18.780 So you saw that the video uploaded, and then it 00:18:18.780 --> 00:18:20.250 takes a little time to process. 00:18:20.250 --> 00:18:24.490 And that's just YouTube doing things 00:18:24.490 --> 00:18:28.140 so that it can be played. 00:18:28.140 --> 00:18:28.940 That's my video. 00:18:28.940 --> 00:18:31.050 Now it's available, the processing is really quick 00:18:31.050 --> 00:18:33.640 because it was eight seconds. 00:18:33.640 --> 00:18:40.350 And to upload on Tumblr, just copy the URL or the embed code. 00:18:40.350 --> 00:18:42.350 Make a video post. 00:18:42.350 --> 00:18:44.550 Paste it in here. 00:18:44.550 --> 00:18:47.510 There's no thumbnail yet because I haven't chosen one. 00:18:47.510 --> 00:18:50.950 YouTube sets one automatically after a couple minutes. 00:18:50.950 --> 00:18:58.000 I can tag it with day one, and my username, and set a caption. 00:19:03.270 --> 00:19:06.190 And post it. 00:19:06.190 --> 00:19:11.210 And it will appear on my dashboard, and on the website. 00:19:11.210 --> 00:19:13.810 So this is just like the general process. 00:19:13.810 --> 00:19:15.620 Under the References tab on the Tumblr, 00:19:15.620 --> 00:19:18.000 there's more detailed if you forget any of these steps. 00:19:18.000 --> 00:19:19.810 Or are having any trouble, or feel free 00:19:19.810 --> 00:19:22.250 to email me at any time and I could help troubleshoot 00:19:22.250 --> 00:19:24.236 any steps of this process. 00:19:24.236 --> 00:19:25.610 If you prefer Vimeo, you can also 00:19:25.610 --> 00:19:28.624 upload it there and just paste in the URL. 00:19:28.624 --> 00:19:30.040 If you already have Vimeo account, 00:19:30.040 --> 00:19:32.500 or something like that. 00:19:32.500 --> 00:19:35.650 So I know we held you guys
