There were three main parts in producing the media. They are recording the song, making the video, and making the program. Making the lyric and melody were done before recording the song. Furthermore, making the illustration of the pictures was done before making the video. The illustration of the pictures was designed using Corel X3 program. Then, the lyric, the song, and the picture were combined using movie maker. After that, planning the concept of video program was done. The program was designed using macro media flash. Furthermore, they were saved in micro SD. Teacher’s guide book and students’ workbook are the other products to support the media. The teacher’s guide book is the book that used to help the English teacher in using the video program for the teaching of listening.
