. Upload your movie to your blog posting. [If you have trouble with this, check to see that you exported it in the correct format.]

2. A) Identify the different music in your project.

I had 2 different pieces of music in my movie, one for the introduction and one for the rest of the movie.B) Tell us what songs you used

For the beginning, I used the song "300 Violin Orchestra" by Jorge Quintero, and for the body of the movie, I used the song "More" by Usher.
C) Why you chose the different pieces

I chose the beginning song because it gave an epic feeling that something great was about to happen. I used the song "More," because it had a very fast beat and didn't drag in any places. It mad the movie interesting and fun.
3. Describe how you went about finding your information, pictures, and songs:
A) What kinds of search terms/phrases did you use? (Give some examples.)

At the very beginning, I simply typed in "1996," and got a lot of information on the fashion and costs. I used IMDb to find out all of the Academy Awards that were given.
B) What search engine(s) do you use most often?

I use Google the most, and on occasion I use Yahoo.
C) Did you find any unreliable websites or sources?

No, but the Academy Awards that were given in 1996 had some movies from 1995, but they were still awarded in 1996.

4. What different kinds of technology did you use to compile your project? [Web tools, Mac tools, etc...]

I used Easybib, Garageband, Quicktime player, Keynote, iMovie, Zamzar, Youtube, itunes, and the age calculator.

5. What are you good at...what went well for you in this project?

I think I did a good job of screen recording keynote, because it gave a lot of cool effects. I also did a good job of making a cool, epic beginning, and timed the slides just right.

6. With what did you struggle on this project...what was difficult for you?

I had trouble timing the slides right, and figuring out which pictures to put in.

7. 

A) Did you decide to use still slides? 

I used still slides, but every slide had a lot of cool movement effects, so it pretty much looked like movie footage.
B) Why or why not?  [If not, how did you convey your information?]

I used still slides because it gave the coolest effect, and even though it took longer to record it still was worth it.
C) Did you use a consistent theme throughout your movie?

For every topic, I would use the same font and transitions. But whenever it would change to a new topic, there would be completely different fonts, colors and transition effects.
D) Why or why not?

I felt that I needed to mix it up whenever possible, so the audience wouldn't be able to predict what happens next.

8. Describe how you used video in your project.
I used a video countdown I got off youtube, and I used footage of fireworks at the end.
9. For what other classes, situations, uses could this type of project be adapted?

I could use these skills in almost any class, and I could use it to make home videos and presentations for a job.

10. How did your project use the transformative property of borrowed images, music, and information to comply with the Copyright Law of 1976? [...not just that you cited the information - citing is not enough...tell me how you transformed what you've taken into something new, etc., How did you transform the music, information, images, etc.?

I used all of my media for educational purposes, and besides, most of the pictures were mine, and I cited my sources at the end. I didn't copy anyone's opinion, for they were all valid facts that I simply portrayed in my own way.

11. Would you do another project like this on your own? Why? Why not?

Most defiantly, because it was really fun and I could do it on the side for my friends and for special occasions.
