MORE 'VIDEOS' POSTS
Last week’s videos were just so fabulous that I have to admit I haven’t much for you this week. So when video times are tough I like to turn to the Drawn blog for inspiration. This piece is a combination of stop animation with pixelated cut-out images by a Joseph Mann. For me it highlights […]
First off, this is an immensely cool revision technique that is coming to us today via children’s author Sarah Miller. It’s a revision trick that found its start with one Darcy Pattison and is called The Shrunken Manuscript. Anything that involves sparkles is fine by me. Writers take note: Thanks to Sarah for the link! […]
Last week we all went to the 2nd Annual Kidlit Bloggers’ Conference, and Gregory K gave a great talk on how to get a little more connected. There was much talk of Facebook, Twitter, that kind of stuff. PERFECT timing, then, to post this video. It’s not too dissimilar from Greg’s I’m Pretty Well Connected […]
What would I do without my readers? I’d probably have to go out there and (gasp, shudder!) do actually work. I’d probably have to sweat and slave over finding just the right videos in time for each and every Sunday. Instead, all I have to do is sit back, kick up my heels, light me […]
It was a slow week for videos (read: I didn’t have time to look for videos this week) so what I’m offering today is going to be a little more random than usual. First off, I was delighted to find that there is new online show called Cartoon Brew TV. Their first episode just aired […]
Yeah. I linked to the Scholastic blog’s post with this video, but then I got to thinking about how much I liked it (the goggles in the pool: Inspired) and I had to put it here as well. I feel so old today. Thanks to Dodie Ownes for the link. The description of this one […]
Monica over at Educating Alice alerted me to this recent American trailer for the BBC production of Noel Streatfeild’s Ballet Shoes. Until now my primary association with Ms. Streatfeild was an almost overwhelming desire to switch the "e" and the "i" in her last name. Now at last I’ve something else to concentrate on. Emma […]
This week, the number one video making the rounds was this one: The Conference of the Fonts. I never liked Ransom anyway. Thanks to Jane Yolen and ShelfTalker for the link. That may have been the number one video making the rounds, but the video that has my heart is this one. You want to […]
I like this. Apparently there’s a writer out there named Jackson Pearce who does weblogs containing useful writing advice. This one was discovered by Cheryl Rainfield and involves critiquing manuscripts. When I grow up, I wanna have a name as cool as "Jackson Pearce". I’d post this here but I can’t find a high enough […]
Did you know that there’s more than one Twilight movie spoof out there? These two faux trailers will make a bit more sense of you watch this and this first. My sister sent me this. I can’t remember why. Maybe she knows the creator? Could be. Well, I’m not sure but this is certainly one […]
