Welcome to the Plan page I hope you enjoy it!
 * Introductory!**

I think you have already guessed what the Plan step does. The plan step is planning what you're going to put in your project. In our class we all make storyboards telling what picture goes where, what transition, effects etc. We made storyboards so when we had to make our movie it would be rather easy just to have what your going to do in front of you. So when I was finished with my storyboard I was set to do my movie. As I made my movie I kept looking at my storyboard to make it exactly as i had planned. I did experience some problems though like I had a certain picture which the affect O had chosen didn't match the picture so I had to change the affect. As previewed below is a reflection I had to make after I mad my storyboard. It contains my strengths and weaknesses and why I chose certain pictures! I really hope you enjoy it!

I did meet a few ESLR's in this part of the project. I think I was a self-directed learner because as I was making my movie I was going threw my storyboard and making sure all the pictures had the right affect, transition and audio. When I had made a mistake and didn't put the same affect as I had done on the storyboard on the picture in my movie I would change it. I also was an Academic Achiever because I made a plan / storyboard to make it easier more me to make the movie (well I had too). I was also and Critical thinker because while I as making my storyboard I was testing if the affect was nice and if it fit the picture, like for a picture of a swimming pool I accidentally changed the water to red which totally didn't look good.

 * Reflection: Plan**


 * How does this iMovie represent the things that make you happy?** This iMovie represents the things that make me happy because I feel that when you make a movie about your happiness things that make your happy should be included. If the things that make you happy are not included in your “happiness” movie I don’t really see the point of the movie. That’s why I added most of the things that make me really happy! For example I included my dog, my brother, mother and father.

I didn’t really put the pictures in a order from what makes me most happy to least happy because if I did that obviously my family would come first but in my iMovie the first couple of clips are kind of like an introductory about me like there is a picture of the twin towers showing where I live and a small paragraph about my self.
 * Why did you choose to put the pictures in this order?**


 * How did you group your pictures? Why did you decide to group them this way?** I grouped my pictures according to what category they belonged in. For example all my favorite animals fall in to the category “animals”. I decided to group them this way because I feel that my movie would be easier to follow and understand. If my pictures weren’t categorized the effects were different now there all the same. all the effects were different now there all the same. ed then there will just be a lot of jumbled pictures everywhere and my movie would not make sense, be hard to follow and most likely I will get a bad grade!! So that’s why I grouped my photos!


 * How do you plan to create a theme that runs consistently throughout your movie?** A theme I want to run through out my movie is to have the same “Titles, Transitions and Effects” throughout the whole movie. Which I kind of have done on my story board except in the beginning; all the effects were different now there all the same.

The effects that I added help enhance my movie because they are all the same which makes my movie look professional. For example for all my titles I have “Cross through centre” and For all my transitions I have “Wash in” and more most of my effects I have sharpen. For the audio I don’t really think there should be something because if there is audio on every slide I think it will be very confusing for the audience hearing a lot of sounds and the movie will be hard to follow. (that’s just my opinion)
 * How do the effects that you added help enhance your movie**?


 * Did you enjoy this part of the project? Why or why not?** In some parts of the story board I enjoyed it but in other parts I didn’t. For example I enjoyed making a story board because when you make your movie you don’t spend a lot of time thinking about what titles, effects or transitions to use the storyboard is just there for you to use because you planned everything out. Something I didn’t enjoy about the story board was that for all my pictures from the internet I forgot to list the sources so I had to go back and do that but that was my own problem but generally I think that the storyboard was easy and enjoyable.

Honestly I don’t really think I will face any challenges, but if I have to face some I think they will just be small problems. I don’t think I will face any challenges because I have made my story board and all the transitions, effects and titles are all written down on my storyboard and they do all exist in the actual iMovie, because it would be bad if there was no such thing as “cross through center” then I would have to change all my titles.
 * What challenges did you face? How will you try to overcome them?**
