What are you doing for Thanksgiving? Do you have any traditions? Go in to detail about your plans for the 5 day weekend.

For Thanksgiving i'm going to a friends house to stuff my face with food. I will most likely hang out with them for a couple days and call grandparents and relatives wishing them a happy thanksgiving. I might also receive a couple cards with some mula in it. Other than that, not much else will happen.

Reflecting on the comments and grade of your stop-motion animation... what you would do differently if you had to do it all over again? Would you manage your time better? Find better lighting for your photos? Come up with a better idea? Explain what you would change about your video.

If I could improve anything with my video, I would probably add a better start slide and finish slide. I feel happy with my grade and my finished product. Some other things that could improve my video would be to focus on the pictures, not change clothes mid story, add a little something to make it a story and it could help if I had the idea a bit sooner.

Tell me about your experience with taking your stop-motion photos. What problems did you run in to? What did you find difficult about the process? What would you go back and change about HOW you took the photos? Explain yourself.

Well, with my stop-motion pictures I had to take so many and i hope they turn out alright. I had to move the camera to different places so I could take the pictures correctly.

Tell me about your Stop-Animation idea. Explain how your idea is innovative and creative. How will you execute it?

I have one main idea of me riding a broom around the school and just having fun. I will have a partner take photos on a textbook with a mono pod, to keep it steady. My idea has been done before but that's only because i found out that my other ideas would've been a technology feat.

What is stop motion animation? If you don't know, look it up! Explain.

A stop motion animation is the use of puppets or clay figures put in different ways to make it seem like they have been moving in different scenes. Basically, clay figures that are moved around while taking pictures at different times to make a movie.

Tell me about your idea for your 5 frame story board. What is the plot? How do you plan to make the story creative? Who's the main character? What is the beginning, middle and end? Tell me about your plan of attack.

My board is going to be of my normal day in school. It will be minimized since i'm allowed only to use 5 slides but i will try to provoke my idea through those slides. I will try to include some creativity but make sure that it meets the requirements.

Yesterday you edited and uploaded photos to your blog. Tell me more about your photos. HOW did you edit them? Why did you choose the photos that you did? Explain your assignment.

I chose my photos because i feel that they were the best photos of the bunch. With the Photoshop tool, i added some better lighting and quality. I feel that my photos have been improved and now look better. I'm satisfied with my work.
