This project in general was so much fun, but it was hard. Everything that I had to do in this project was fun but came with lots of challenges. But I really enjoyed it because I got to learn so much more about my dad, he was my interview. He told me stories and I also got to see a lot of cool new pictures of him! He told me about the challenges he had to face, he also told me about some of his favorite memories, how his life is now and so much more! Something that I found very challenging was making the video. I had a lot of trouble finding the perfect pictures to use. I also had so much information and I wasn’t sure how to fit it all in. Looking for the pictures was very hard because I had to find the perfect picture that fits what I am saying. Making the script was also hard. I had a lot of trouble making it all make sense and be able to tell the story in a detailed way. When I was making my script, I made a narrative first. When I was making the narrative I thought that I had to keep writing more and more because I thought I didn’t have enough. But I actually wrote so much that I wasn’t sure how I was going to be able to fit it all into the script. Something that I always find challenging in making We Videos is the transitions. This is challenging for me since you can’t have all of the same transitions for each picture, but then you also can’t have different transitions for every picture. So what I did to help me with this is, I picked three transitions that I would use throughout the whole video, and I think that really helped me. Something else that I found hard was putting the text on the photos. You couldn’t have text on every photo since it would be to much. But then you also can’t have it on no photos since it would look plain. You have to be able to find the perfect balance, which is sometimes very hard to find. The voice over was really hard. The voice over for this project was probably the hardest thing for me. It was hard to fit all of the words I was trying to say and make sure that it matches up with the picture. Something that happened to me on the day that it was due was when I was editing it and checking it over, something happened and my whole presentation diapered. I couldn’t find it and I thought I had to do it all over again, but I knew I didn’t have time for that. I did get it all back, but this made me very nervous. This was very scary, but I now know to be more careful with what I am doing. Overall this project was a lot of fun and I really enjoyed making it, and learning so much more about my dad. I would like to thank Mrs.Edwards and Mr. Casal for helping me with this project, and my dad for letting me interview him.
