Post #5 Let's get creative

Apple has a variety of great apps that let its users explore their creativity and in this post I will go over some of my favorite creative apps and why. One of the apps I probably use most often for choir is iMovie. It gives the users the opportunity to create dramatic but clean cut videos with background sounds or music. In the past I have used iMovie to create advertising trailers for productions at my school. Another really great app to use if you are into recording music if GarageBand. GarageBand gives its users access to try out most common instruments like the piano, guitar, and drums electronically. It has a recording feature so you can record yourself playing one instrument and put it over another recording you made earlier. Essentially a user on GarageBand can make a whole cover album inspired by their favorite artist while only using one app. Probably one of the more underrated apps for creativity is Pages, in pages not only can you share and collaborate with peers and get fresh ideas but you can add in so much more. You can add in recording to your work, images, and if you want whatever you are writing to be private you can even put a password on it. Finally my favorite app for accessing creativity would have Adobe Sparks PhotoShop. When I first opened Adobe Sparks PhotoShop, I will be honest, I had no idea what I was doing. But after playing around with the software I realized it was not that hard to use and photo-shop can be simple and fun. I highly recommend trying any and all of these apps if you are looking to widen your creative abilities.
