Amazing free software
On Monday 9th February Mind members used an amazing piece of free software, Audacity its a musical editing program. They used it to edit some music for a film they are making. Using the software you can mix multiple tracks together, change the tempo and add fades in and out it can also do lots of sound effects. The software can be downloaded at http://audacity.sourceforge.net/.

Virtual tour film launch
Members of Mind have been busy creating a virtual tour of the Mind building. Photos were taken during various activities and sessions and the photos were enhanced using Picasa - picture editing software which is free!
The film was made to show prospective members what goes on in Mind and to encourage them to join in and take part. It shows off Mind's commitment to health and wellbeing by highlighting its healthy eating, cooking and activity sessions.
Well done to Byron and Darren for making the film - we love the funky music too!

Byron's second film
Byron has been very busy working on his second film with the Connections project and it's now ready for everyone to see. He used a different editing programme to the one he used making his first film. The programme he used this time is called Photostory 3 and is freely available from Microsoft. Byron said that it was a lot easier to use and he really enjoyed making his second film.
Byron decided to make his film about the walks organised by Mind, as he had some wonderful photographs taken on the walks and making a film was a great way of showing them. Enjoy the film.

Byron's first film
This is my first attempt at making a film at Mind Aberystwyth. This film is about my family and how we got involved in Line dancing. It starts with my son at an early age up to present day.
I was taught how to make the film at the sessions at Mind Aberystwyth on Tuesday mornings. I am now planning to make a second short film about the walks we go on at Mind. I hope you enjoy my film.
