On January 29th, we conducted lab 2 which involved learning the basic tools of Dartfish and how to publish Dartfish videos to our own mediabook. The first step in the lab involved going to dartfish.tv and looking at the “3302 Class Resources folder and downloading the video trim file. I then opened the Dartfish software and as a class we reviewed some of the various resources in the software like the different screen options such as split screen or mosaic mode and different tools such as analyzing angle and distance of the video.

Due to these cues, only the highlighted area on the play head would play the video. I saved this video as a movie to the computer and set it as AV1, and if I desired I could slow down the video during this step. I saved my movie to the desktop so it was easily accessible and entered it into a new storyboard on the Dartfish software. I then uploaded trimmed video, by clicking on Mediabook and proceeded with the proper steps. I then signed into dartfish.tv to ensure my assignment was uploaded correctly and it was. This lab was extremely informative and allowed me to gain experience with the software. By the end of the lab, I felt comfortable working with the Dartfish software and confident when completing my future
