You may use iMovie on your phone to edit a video if you film your project on your phone.
Tips for screen captures:
Keystroke commands that will do screen captures:
ctrl+alt+ monitor icon on top keyboard row - gives you ability to select partial screen
ctrl+ monitor icon - captures full screen
The captures will automatically be saved in the Chromebooks "downloads" area. Access through "Files" app.
This will give you several pictures. You will need to make a screen capture video, or assemble these pictures into a movie using Microsoft Movie Maker on the classroom desktops.
You can also download the WeVideo app on Chromebooks to edit video.
Tips for screen capture software on your Chromebook:
Download the Screencastify extension.
This app will let you create a video that captures what you are doing on your Chromebook.
You may have to use a combination of Screencastify, as well as screen captures, your camera on your phone, and the use of the classroom desktops to complete this assignment.
I suggest saving all parts of your video on your Google Drive.
You may use Adobe Spark video if you wish as well, or any other editing tool that you are knowledgeable about to get the project done.
