Prezi for NCCBA nominees

Here's a link to my NCCBA Prezi:  http://prezi.com/8gdyeq6iv4rc/nccba-2011-12/ (I don't like the way Prezi's embed feature works.) 

To be honest, I'll probably do the presentation over again in Animoto.  I find it easier, more like "video" and you can easily add music.  This took FOREVER and I don't really like the text.  I tried to group the books into categories, which wasn't easy.  It uses 2 clip arts images from Creative Commons so at least I can cross another challenge off the list.  None of the book covers were available through Creative Commons.  Hopefully they fall under educational use, etc.

I like the choice of topic. You did a great job with the presentation. To me Prezi has the unfortunate effect of "motion sickness" though. I had the same feel with Jerry's demo.

I agree with the motion sickness aspect. In fact, in the tutorial they stress not to zoom in and out too much. Instead you are supposed to group objects together to avoid that happening. It looks cool but I wish you could add sound. I'll probably use Animoto again like I did last year.

Thanks Bonnie, wish Prezi had music though. I prefer Animoto I think.
