Reflecting on the comments and grade of your stop-motion animation... what you would do differently if you had to do it all over again? Would you manage your time better? Find better lighting for your photos? Come up with a better idea? Explain what you would change about your video.

I would have made it a little longer with more pictures. I would have managed my time better by doing it over time and not rushing it. I could have made a better idea but i thought that making my bed would be the easiest to tell what the story was so people could understand it. I would change the lighting and how long it was also i would have added more steps to this project.

Tell me about your weekend.

This weekend i hung out with my friends and went to the chiefs game. It was a very cold weekend which stunk because it was hared to do a lot of stuff. The chiefs game was very cold but fun because we won. On Saturday i went to dinner with my family for my grandmas birthday.

Tell me about your experience with taking your stop-motion photos. What problems did you run in to? What did you find difficult about the process? What would you go back and change about HOW you took the photos? Explain yourself.

The experience took a long time. It was fun but it was difficult to be patient and take your time setting up the props. If i could change it again i would take more pictures and move the objects more slowly because i think that i moved some of the objects to far. I would move the object a little more sometimes than i usually did and i don't know how it will affect my whole video.

For my stop motion animation I am going to make my bed but where it looks like it is making itself. It is creative because it looks like the objects are moving by itself so it looks unreal. I am going to execute it by setting up the tripod in my room with my phone camera on. I will set up the objects every shot while my mother takes the pictures to make it go faster and more efficiently.

What is stop motion animation? If you don't know, look it up! Explain.

It is a animation that looks like the object moves on it owns. It actually is moved slightly ever frame so the object looks like it is moving nonstop. Dolls with movable joints or clay objects are the most commonly used objects for the scenes.

5 Frame Story Board

Tell me about your idea for your 5 frame story board. What is the plot? How do you plan to make the story creative? Who's the main character? What is the beginning, middle and end? Tell me about your plan of attack.

I did how to make a sandwich. I made it creative by adding objects in it. The main character me. The beginning is the bread then the mayonnaise then the cheese then the meat then you are done.The plan of attack was how to show you how to make a sandwich.

Yesterday you edited and uploaded photos to your blog. Tell me more about your photos. HOW did you edit them? Why did you choose the photos that you did? Explain your assignment.

I took the photos with my IPhone. I took the pictures around the school of objects and people. I edited them on Photoshop.com. It is a great website used for editing. I like those photos the most out of all i took. The assignment was to edit 5 photos and put a before and after photo.
