iMovie Reflection

In Humanities class we made a project based on different pharaohs, we got to chose one so Andrea and I choose the pharaoh Ramses II. We had 3 days to make an interesting iMovie with pictures and information about the pharaoh that we choose. On the first day we searched for information and we tried to learn about the pharaoh. Then in the second day we started writing a script which then we were going to record our voices reading it and then put it in the iMovie presentation. In the last day we organized the script and we tried to make it sound good, but we couldn't record our voices so we needed another day to finish. Hopefully it was Thursday and we had Chinese New Year vacations so we had 5 more days to work on it at home.

Andrea came over to my house to look for pictures and record our voices, that took us 2 days which meant we had 3 more days. When we were finished with the iMovie we remembered that Mr. Fischer said that we had to try to be creative and make something cool. So we brainstormed and we had the idea to make a short funny movie. My dad helped us with the filming part, Andrea was the mummy and I was a tourist. We then finished and we made another iMovie. with the videos that we took and we added music and some fun stuff to it. Few hours later we were done and ready to present. Then on Monday we were the only group done so we had to wait and wait. On Tuesday we presented first. I personally think that we did a good job with creativity in the iMovie and in the 'Mummy Video'. I really liked what we did and how we did it because we both helped a lot, we communicated and we worked as a team.
