Pictures
May 20th 09 The way we make the stop moation vidoes is we take several pictures, go to movie maker and then upload them.

h-13th, 09 we worked on our documantation and we had a team meating. We uploaded and finished part two Then we worked on part three. I think that we have gotten to be a strong group and use teamwork more than when we started. We only have a few arguments on which equipment we will use and what design and stop motion video design to record. . Here is me and Athavan fixing on our documantation that Mr. Mccloud told us to fix after our team meating. (Above)

May 15th-may18th we finished part 4 on friday and we also wrotepart 3 on monday we worked on wirting part 4 and started planning and filming for part 5. we are also editing our overall video adding music and and making it longer Below) Tuesday may 19th Today we figured out what we were going to do for part 5. we finished the intro to part 5 and started our voice recording of parts 1-5 We plan on doing some magic tricks for part 5 May,22nd 2009 Today we worked well together and compleated part 6 but there is an argument if we should redo our part six video or if we should just put it on. David wants to keep it while Ryan Athavan and I think it should be redone.

may 26th We planned on doing our how to video on stop motion today. Even though we didnt know it our group was divided in half because each half was doin their own part. We still got things done and everything is still running smoothly we our also compramising to combine both parts.

June 1st Today we did another stop motion video and got one step closer to finishing our goal of a two minnute movie. We are still having little trouble with the computers today but it was better than Friday. We used another technique to finish a stop motion video, by creating a video on the white bored. We just make multiple pictures of the white bored but we move the objects by erasing them and re-creating them to just adding on to the objects to make them bigger each picture. I think we were working alot faster and better than last week. June 2nd Today we made another stop motion video and we used the same technique that we used in part seven the one before this one. We used the white bored and based it on a pac man game. We erase and re-draw every thing to make it look like it is a moving pac man game. I think this is one of the best stop motion videos we will have if we finish it on time. I think we can easily pass our goal but I still do not understand what the purpose of the stop motion videos accept for the how to video. June 3rd Today we finished the last touches on the Pac-Man video so we just have to download it. We are trying to put the videos on imovie by spliting the movies in half because Movie Maker can not hold the amount of memory and then we will combine them when we upload it to imovie. But sadly our computer did not work so we could not do the great plan.

Reflections
June 2nd I do not understand how the movies accomplish any thing accept for the how to video. I think we accomplished the two minnute video goal today if we upload them to the computers. I think our goal was perfect because it leaves out two days to edit the movie and add the credits and finishing touches. I still do not understand why sometimes the movie maker program freezes and sometimes it doesn't. I have learned hows to upload the pictures much faster to the documantation today. I think our teamwork skills have improoved because today every one was always doing some kind of work and eliminated some of the problems we had by using teamwork.

May 29th 2009 We want to learn how we can use different techniques to make our stop motion video better. We have made little progress today since we had shortened classes and we didn’t get to our day goal to make a long video but we made another stop motion video to add to our two minute video goal. We do not understand why the computers always freeze when we are working on them, it is very frustrating for our group because we get mad easily with bad computers. Next time we start doing a stop motion video we should start by doing it on the Mac instead of the Dell because of all the computer problems we have had. I think that we will get this done by the end of the week but I am thinking that we will have a little more extra time so I think we should stretch our goals.

May 27 2009 We are planning to creat sevral more parts for the movie. We did'nt get as far as we wanted because we are haveing trouble comeing up with ideas for our videos. We plan to make our new videoa with the theam of a flip book.

May,26th,2009 We had good teamwork today but we had a lack of communication skills. Some of us did how to video on making a stop motion video while another person did something else so I think we are going to put them together but it would be better if we found out that Ryan was all ready doing something

May,22nd 2009 As our reflection today we worked really well together. Our team work may have slipped a little bit because everyone wanted to use their own ideas. Overall the camera worked well and the videos are running smoothly.

May 20, 2009 We have very goodeamwork so far. and we plan to contue with it. Our group has had little complication with equipment so far, meaning camera, batterys, and tripod. Our videos are good and steady but posting them is a hastle.
