Capstone Part 3: Final Project

I am finished with my capstone project! I really enjoyed it because I got to learn a lot about Orca whales. Also I had to re record my script many times to get it to sound good. I decided to do a video for this project because I really enjoy working with the Adobe spark platform. Even though I was frustrated when I had to keep recording it was really worth the struggle. I’m super happy about how it came out.  I also think my movie making skills improved a lot during this project and I definitely got better at using Adobe spark. At first my video was only about 2 minutes but I got it to be about 4 minutes. In addition  I had a little trouble downloading but I finally got it to work. I am looking forward to sharing my final video because I feel really good about it. I think my final project was a success. Here is the link to my capstone:

 

Capstone Part 2: Interview

I interviewed Pablo Cermeno. I think it went really well. I think this becauseI got a lot of new information I did not have before. At the beginning I was a bit nervous. I wondered if he would just repeat the same information I had already had. We did this on video call. It was a little glitchy. He deeply explained the answer to all of my questions. I think interviewing is a great way of getting some research. He also used specific vocabulary and explained what the words meant. Before capstone I did not know much about orca whales. I learned so many things not just about orcas but  about what I could do better if I needed to interview someone else for a different project. He knew a lot of information about orcas. I don’t feel like I have to worry about not having  enough information now!

Capstone Part 1

We are starting capstone. I still remember when I was in one of the younger grades  and I really wanted to do this project. And yet here we are doing capstone and being in quarantine. I worry that I will not have enough information . I also fear that it will not be interesting. I want people to be intrigued. I want to inspire them to learn more about orcas. My topic is orcas. I chose this topic because I was always fascinated by the way they move. I hope my capstone is informative and inspires you to go and learn more. I also hope it inspires me to stop doubting. Also I hope my project turns out well. And surprises everyone how amazing orcas are. I also hope I can find someone to interview.  I thinI also wonder if I will learn anything that I may interview someone from an aquarium. I just hope that they know things about orcas. I also wonder if I will learn new facts. I will really enjoy this project.
