Introduction
In order to better understand the digital tools used in the different activities, we used images (e.g. screenshots), although these images belong to the owners of these tools.
Films are sequences of images, whose quick transition gives us a sense of movement. They can either document actual topics, or they can portray something in our imagination. With OpenShot, you can edit videos, adding effects, transitions and even music. In this activity, you will be the director of your short film.
