Today, I finished the Design Brief section for our evaluation. I also started to work on the Evaluation Document. I tried to help Lillie on shaving off some seconds of our video. It is too long and I am afraid we might get a bad grade. We had some problems and needed Mr. Staffle's help and it was kind of hard.

Today in tech class, Mr. Staffle explained what we needed to do today. It was a lot of things. We had a couple of problems. One was that our stop motion animation is forty four seconds long and it is supposed to be twenty seconds long. We are all afraid that we will get a bad grade for it being too long. Lillie and I shaved off four seconds of the video, but we will need to find a way to make it even shorter. We are going to delete un necessary pictures. I helped work on retyping a design brief and got it almost all the way finished. We have a sheet for homework and I hope I can get it finished.

Today in tech-ed, we had a couple problems. One of which was that our camera would not turn on, so I replaced the batteries and it worked. I had to take all of the pictures today because that was the roll I was assigned. Towards the end of taking pictures, the camera would make the pictures look white and blurry. Molly helped us fix the camera. You can add music, voice, and some other things too. I am excited because I am ready to get this video done. I think it will turn out great, but we are not near being finished with taking photos. Molly, Greta, Lillie, and I are going to stay after school because we really need to finish taking photos. I am kind of scared because I am worried that my group and I won't get enough pictures to make 20 seconds worth of video. We only have about 70 pictures and we need about 400 pictures. Next class period, I am going to try and stay more on task and hopefully our video will turn out okay.
