Capstone blog post #4

 We finished our blog posts. For mine to present it, I had to screen record the slideshow while talking to the screen recording.It took a lot of tries but in the end it got better. Once it was finished I posted on YouTube and presented it to my class.

 

Here is the link to my presentation: https://youtu.be/PnYEtoHGxl4

 

I can’t believe capstone and the year flew by so fast. I am so excited to go to a new school but sad to leave Heathcote. But I am looking forward to the drive through graduation

Capstone blog post #3

For my Capstone project, I chose to do a slideshow. The slideshow explains all the research I’ve done over the past month on Hamilton. 

In order to make this presentation, I had to first make a script template. This basically said what would be saying during the presentation and how long each slide was going to take. After the script template was done, we had to start making the real slideshow. This meant putting our pictures on the slide and fixing the formatting. Then, I had to memorize most of my script.

Some challenges that I faced making the slideshow and script was making sure what I said made sense and making sure my slides were clean and consistent. Something that I thought was a great part of the process includes choosing the pictures and making them interesting and connected to the script and my voiceover. Memorizing my script really challenged me, but it wasn’t too hard.

I’m definitely sad this is the last project we’re going to do in fifth grade. I think this was a great experience, and we all worked really hard to get our final projects to where they are now.

 I finished my Capstone interview. For my interview, I interviewed Aisha Davis. She is a very successful producer and helped answer a lot of my questions I had about the Broadway. These were my questions:

 

  • What are some productions you have been involved in?
  • Have you seen The Broadway Hamilton? 
  • What has being involved in entertainment contributed to watching shows?
  • What do you think makes it special?
  • Do you like Lin Manuel Miranda as an entertainer and why?
  • Can you explain how you think Hamilton is so successful?
  • What makes people want to watch Hamilton? 
  • What would you change about Hamilton?
  • Is Hamilton The most successful play?
  • Do you think that the success rate is higher because it is made by Lin Manuel Miranda?

 

Overall, she was very helpful and will definitely help me in the process of making the presentation.
