I started out with the graphic, taking the template for DKC workshops, and designed it to advertise &#8220;printing anti-dkc propaganda in sticker form!&#8221; The graphic was fairly simple to make, and I had lots of fun with it. I tried to get creative with it and add some cool effects. I think it turned out well. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"791\" src=\"https:\/\/dkctraining.teaganstacy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Teagan-DKC-April-Fools-Workshop-1-1024x791.gif\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-223\" style=\"width:420px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Next, I was tasked to make a short trailer for this workshop. I started with a story board. My aim was to make it short and sweet as my last video was quite a bit longer than it was supposed to be. <\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"765\" src=\"https:\/\/dkctraining.teaganstacy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/IMG_3615-1024x765.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-224\" style=\"width:421px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Next, I had to make some props. The easier part was drawing a bunch of &#8220;anti-dkc propaganda&#8221; with markers and notebook paper. However, to make my propaganda stickers I needed to use the Cricut, and so I got trained. I was happy to learn how to use another resource here in the DKC, and I was able to create my stickers for my video! (The design was hand drawn on procreate and then imported to Canva)<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/dkctraining.teaganstacy.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/Untitled-design-1024x1024.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-225\" style=\"width:308px;height:auto\" \/><\/figure>\n<p>Finally, I was ready to record! I got Addi to be the star of my video, and we shot relatively quickly, then I used the mics to record a separate voiceover audio. I feel like I better understand how to use the audio sets now which I am happy about. I used Clipchamp to edit my video and found it easy to use and more advanced than Canva which was nice. I finished up my video and uploaded it to YouTube for the captions. Here is my final product!<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<div class=\"ast-oembed-container \" style=\"height: 100%\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p>Overall, I found this project very fun, I was glad I got to use the video and audio kits more, I feel like I have a better handle on that now. I am especially glad I got trained on the Cricut because I like knowing how to use more of the technology we offer around here. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My most recent project consisted of making a graphic and video of a fake workshop for April fools.
