GENOME PROJECT

I really liked this project a lot. I love picking the music and the the music video. My favorite band in my project is paramore. I had some trouble converting the video on zamzar at first and then I had trouble bringing it to the iMovie project but then it worked. I don't like having to adjust the music once u drop it in the project it takes a while to get it where you want them. The music video I picked is one of my favorites! This was a fun project but I did not like having to find the history and stuff because I feel like it slowed my project down. Alternative is a unique kind of music.

SNOW DAY WORK CITED

Then the next assignment for the snow day was the work cited page. I find my pictures an my websites that i have to give credit to and all of that. I copy and paste the work cited and i get all of that right. That is the easy part. THen when we have to indent the first line of the source, i forget how to do that part. I thought it was just hit tab and it wen tover but that has not been working. i have most trouble with the work cited page. Trying to meet all of the requirements for the projects or the assignment we get from the teacher that involves a work cited page. You have to make sure you get it done the way they want it.

MUSIC/VIDEO CONVERSIONS

At first i did not know what was going on with these snow day assignments with the conversions. I use zamzar when i download videos or something like that. Although I do something different when i download music. I go to 2conv.com. You go to a video on youtube of the song you want but you have to make sure its not a music video. It has to be a lyric video or of just a transition of pictures. Then you copy the URL and past it in the space on the website. You click enter and it downloads and loads straight into your itunes. then you have the music and its done.

iMOVIE

This imovie project was an okay project. It was not one of my most favorite projects we have done but it still was not a bad project. I had a hard time getting the special effect we had to have in the project. In my group we used picture in picture and i didn't know how to do it so it took some time to figure it out. It was a good project because of the required effects we had to have I know now how to do these effects and can use them in my projects in the future for other classes. Also getting the music timed right for the parts where there was no video and where there wasn't any video. I love baseball/softball but i probably would have liked this project more if it was on my favorite sport, cheerleading.    :0)
