PND Football Video

ND culture-football

. Identify your team's topic

My team's topic was PND football.

2. Describe your role on the team.

My role on the team was: I asked questions on one of the interviews, I got interviewed, I acted in the introduction and concluding scenes, and I typed most of the storyboard.

3. What did you learn from being a part of this team?

I learned how to make a video on imovie, and I learned that it is easier to plan a video on a storyboard than if I just started filming.

4. What went well for you as a team?

We were very successful in the interview portion of the video, because it explained what PND football is all about.

5. What did not go well for you as a team?

SOme questions were left unanswered in the video, because we had to cut down the video so it wasn't too long.

6. Describe the process from storyboarding through the movie creation. Did ideas/concepts/focus change from one kind of technology to the other? If so, how? 

We brainstormed first, and put it into a storyboard. We were able to follow the storyboard pretty well, occasionally adding in little details that would bring the audience in. We used Photo Booth to film the interviews, then put them into imovie. From there, we tied everything together into one movie.

7. What new tools and techniques did you learn by doing this project?

I learned how to use google documents to share everything about our project with my team members and with the teacher, and how to use imovie.

8. For what other classes, situations, or uses could this type of project be adapted?

If I ever need persuade a customer or business partner applicant to join or buy from a company I work at, than I could make a video describing the business I work for, and ex

plain why they should work with it.

9. 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 was able to use all the media because it was for educational purposes. We made it into something no one has ever seen before, something great. 

Movie Review

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

2. What tools and techniques did you use to create your podcast?

I used garageband to compile my podcast, edited it so the music would not play louder than my voice, and changed my voice to sound more distant and erie.
3.  How could you use a project like this in other classes?

I could make podcasts for history describing events that took place at certain time periods.
4.  In the “real world,” how could podcast projects be used (In what careers/businesses, etc.)? 

If you were appealing to a company on a certain topic, then you could make a podcast and email it to them in order to get what you want.
5.  In this project, what did you get good at doing?

I learned how to time the music, voices, and pictures exactly how I wanted in order to get the certain effect.

6. What was the most difficult part of the assignment?

The most difficult part was that the pictures kept rearranging themselves out of order, and it took some time to put them back.

7. 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 these media for educational purposes, and i compiled them in a way that was never done before. 

8.  Would you do a project like this on your own?

Yes, if I had a good reason and a podcast would fit well.

iphoto questions

1.) I typed in on google images "the letter ___" in order to get pictures of letters. For specific names like Derrick Rose, I typed in his name and wallpaper on google images. I also had ideas for brands such as
K-mart, so I typed in "K-mart logo."

2.) I learned how to make a slideshow in iphoto and add music to it. I also learned that you have to ask specifically what you want on google images in order to get exactly what you want. Music was also an important thing, because I found that music without words sounds a lot better on a slideshow than music with words.

3.) In a real-world situation, I might have to make a slideshow of pictures of a product and its functions. Doing it in iphoto is simple and quick and can do a better job than a boring powerpoint.

4.) I preferred the more creative project than the excel and word projects.

5.) Most of the images i cropped and took with my own camera. I used the pictures I got off of the internet for an educational purpose, therefore I did not violate and copyright laws.

1. Take a screenshot of your spreadsheet and add it as a picture to your blog posting. 

2. What is a template? [If you use an definition from an online source, be sure to tell me from what website it came.]

A template is a sample fill-in-the-blank document that can be completed either by hand or through an automated iterative process, such as with a software assistant. This definition came from typing define:template into google.

3. What tools/functions in Excel did you use to calculate your data?


I mostly used AutoSum and AutoAverage to find all of the information i needed to put it into a pie graph, which was also a tool i used.


4.  What skills did you use/learn in this project?


I learned how to add information in a table by only highlighting it and clicking AutoSum. I also learned how to find the averages of information and how to make a pie graph of it all.


5.  What “extras” (colors, decorations, etc.) did you add to your project?


I added colors to distinguish information of each m&m and to separate information on the pie chart.

6.  What are some other uses you may have for a simple excel spreadsheet?

Other uses for a simple spreadsheet are to compare information and find averages and use graphs to display information to others, such as a presentation for math or science.
