Making videos like Cassetteboy using wevideo

So here is a wonderful lesson that kids genuinely really enjoy doing. I hate it when people say kids love doing something when they don’t really but this is different, this lesson genuinely gets them all really motivated because it’s easy to do and the outcomes can be very funny indeed. You simply take 2 video files of speeches made by Donald Trump, work out what you want him to say by extracting the words from the speeches, then stitch them altogether.

I use Wevideo to do this because then kids don’t have an excuse that they don’t have the software at home as it’s just in the browser. You can also save any work from class directly on the Wevideo website and they can carry on at home.

The editing will keep kids busy for a couple of lessons and you can differentiate by getting your more able students to source other Donald Trump speeches and text from this site https://millercenter.org/the-presidency/presidential-speeches and as the video points out it’s easy enough to add subtitles and credits too.
