I meant to add how useful it is for learners to see and hear themselves speaking the language that they're learning, did you have a chance to show the learners the clip? I've played tapes back for them when I've recorded them speaking, and have found it a great tool for their morale.
Wow, Aleksandra - that is a great idea! Agnieszka and Ludmila did well and I'm impressed by their performance. Were they happy to do that or did you have to persuade them?
Please could you add step by step instructions, to the blog, of how you did the rolling titles in Movie maker? Others might be interested in trying to do this with their movies. Many thanks Maggie
I'm glad you like it:) Lizzie, I showed the video to the learners first, and then put it in here. Before taking any photos or videos I had prepared a written consent for them to sign. It's particularly important at my courses, as I have Muslim students as well, and they don't want any pictures. When we watched it, the learners had so much fun and they said they loved it and that they weren't as bad as they supposed:) Maggie, I'm not sure if it's neccessary to write the instructions. I found the Movie Maker really clear and easy. It's all there and I guess it would be best just to try it out yourself and see how it works. Having said that, if anyone needs any help with a particular issue using the program I'm here to help!

What a great idea Aleksandra, I'm looking forward to using the kit and sharing ideas when I teach Spanish next Autumn term.
