This was the plan part of our project. Here we would plan out what pictures you would use and what effects would go well with them. The assignment we had to do in this part was making the story board. We did this in class time and after we were done we could start with our movies!
 * Introduction:**

I think i was working at critical thinker because i had to think about what effects would go well with the picture and if it made sense. Also you had to think about what music would go well with the whole theme.

Hey! this is my storyboard, check it out!

Reflection 2 This movie represents what makes me happy through my hobbies and the people I care about. Animals make me happy because they are so cute and I love to play with them. In other words, I’m a really big animal fan! My family makes me happy because I grew up with them and they will give up their time for me. My friends make me happy because they make me laugh and I can just spend time with them relaxed and away from all my troubles. My hobbies make me happy because they are what I enjoy doing and I can relax while doing these things or watching certain movies. I didn’t really put them in a certain order. I was thinking it might have been from the most important in my life, to the least. I know this wasn’t right because I care more about my family more than anything else in this video clip. I guess I put in the order that would make it the easiest for the audience. I grouped them into 4 main groups: animals, food, things I collect / hobbies, and people. With the 4 main topics, I included 5 subtopics: horror movies, comedy movies, stuffed toys, family, and friends. Along with this, I also had a credits page that would include all the sources I used. I decided to group them this way because I thought this was going to be the easiest way to understand and the most organized way I could put all my pictures together. How do you plan to create a theme that runs consistently throughout your movie? To figure out the theme I would use, I would just pick my favorite transitions or effect, and use them all throughout my movie. I guess I will use the same background color for all my pictures. The audio though, will have no theme and is just the sounds that the picture relates to. The effects I used will make my movie more interesting and look more professional. For example, I will use ghost trails on the horror movies so it looks spookier. I’m not really sure if I should put effects on the other clips so right now, I’m still unsure. If I do decide to add effects to them, I would make sure that it makes sense and that it isn’t too distracting. I enjoyed this part of the project because we got to hear the audio effects that we would put in the movie. At the same time I didn’t enjoy it because I was kind of rushed so I might not make the movie exactly the same as in my storyboard. What challenges will you face while making your movie? How will you overcome them? Saving will probably be my biggest challenge because of some difficulties that might occur. If this happens, I could ask for help from the staff, Mrs. Cofino, or my friends who have had that problem too. Another problem I will face is not knowing what each thing does. In this case, I would refer to my iMovie packet that we did and hopefully the person who corrected it would have put the right answers to the questions I missed. Overall, I don’t think I will have too much trouble.
