OWL: Ace video
I am on vacation this week, but I am trying to upgrade the blog, including easier-to-watch video.
It may take a few seconds to load.
This is an experiment. Let me know what you think…
I shot this early one morning — and was lucky enough to get Ace as he finished his night shift.

That’s very exciting. I would be happy to speak to your students in Wyckoff and show them all about Ace …

Ok-Ace is on my Holiday Card to all my 53 students who are in speech therapy.
I then go on your blog and show them Ace. Are they excited to see this? Yes.
Are kindergarteners through 5th graders excited? Yes. Do even the 5th grade boys love this? Yes. Are they waiting for the star of the next book to lay eggs? Yes.Did they all want your blog address? Yes. What Speech Language Specialist could ask for more learning material?
So..maybe some day you would come to Wyckoff and talk to my students. WHo knows????

It worked fine for me (mac). In my opinion the best way to embed videos on a page is to upload it to youtube and then use the code youtube gives out to embed.
Good video. -

Great video. It almost looks like there is mesh in front of the camera though. Is this a video rendering effect? I’d love to hear how you go about capturing this video. You had mentioned that you were looking for an easier and less time consuming method but as far as I know there isn’t a quick way. Do you capture the VCR tape on PC, then edit and export? Would love to hear more about the process. Quality looks great! I also had an initial security alert regarding and Active X plugin. After allowing it all went well!

A quantum technological leap! A fruitful vacation project. “Cable” TV at its best.

Cute as a button! Nice and crisp, great!

Great fun. Thank you!

My security settings originally blocked it, but once I overroad them it worked fine.
