Since the films were silent, we thought it would be a nice idea to add some voiceovers to the video projects. This would allow identification of some of the people in the film, the location, and hopefully the timeframe.

I set up Mom Bules and my wife Diane in front of my computer running the iMovie app which has a voice over function. While the movie runs in the corner, the computer records an audio track.

Now, Mom Bules is, how shall we say this...technology challenged? She does not own a computer, nor a tablet, nor a smart phone. She has no email address, she's not on Facebook...and her VCR is still blinking 12:00. As I set up the app to do a voiceover recording, she's starts talking about the video before the computer is even ready...or has to be reminded to start talking way after the "beep" happens...or she is distracted by some of the other videos on the bottom of the screen and starts talking about them instead of the actual video being shown. ***SIGH***
With Diane's help, we got through the voiceovers without anyone getting hurt. It took several sittings to get through all of the movies, and most took only one take...and they actually turned out pretty good.
