Lab 4: Embedding videos on your blog

Your blog can be used for more than sharing your thoughts, views, or your projects. You can also embed videos to play on demand on your blog very easily. This lab will consist of you creating an Elf Yourself video and then embedding (not simply posting a link) to your blog.  Below is an example of a properly embedded video.



Requirements for this project:
1. Choose how many people you want in your video and secure pictures of them.
2. Go to http://host-d.oddcast.com/elfyourself2012/home.php
3. Choose Upload Photo (since we do not have webcams on these computers and you can't create your movie live).
4. Fit the faces of your people as best as possible and make sure you add them all before creating the video. 5. Once you have created your video you must embed it in your blog.
6. On the Elf Yourself website, click the purple link next to Share for Free (this gives you the code necessary to place the video on your blog). Hit OK to copy.
7. Log into blogger, make a new post, and make sure you click on the HTML tab at the top of the post.
8. Paste the link onto your blog.
9. Publish your post.
