Although I am no Steven Spielberg I
think I did an okay job on my first video project. It was a little complicated
at first and I won’t lie I was a bit overwhelmed but I am happy with the way it
has turned out. Going into this project I thought finding people to interview
was going to be the easiest part but I was very wrong. I thought making the
movie was going to be super difficult but I was also wrong.
I started out this project by
making a check list of what I needed to do because I knew if I didn’t have it
all written in front of me I definitely would forget parts of it. I made
deadlines for each task that needed to be done and for the most part I was able
to stick to it. For me the three hardest tasks were one, making it informative
yet interesting, two finding staff/faculty willing to be interviewed and three,
picking a song. I feel that for the most part I was able to overcome my obstacles,
the video is informative and hopefully isn’t too boring for most people and
although it took a while to decide on a song I think the one I chose was good. Unfortunately
I wasn’t able to get two staff/faculty members to interview I was however able
to get one of the cafeteria workers to talk to me for a little. I asked him he thought
no one wanted to talk to me and he said he thinks it was because of the topic.
He said that because healthy eating and school cafeteria foods are such a controversial
thing that most people don’t want to get involved. I guess I understand that
and now looking back I probably should have planned ahead of time and left
myself extra time to find more interviewies.
Using Windows Movie Maker was
actually much easier than I expected! I enjoyed getting to know the program
however there were a few things I still don’t understand so I wasn’t able to do
as much as I would have liked to but I am happy with the way my video came out.

it separate and hope for the best!*****
