CREATE:


Discuss the tools available and used. What did you do to develop your skills with these tools?

To create my product I used Windows live movie maker (newer version). This program was really useful because it was easy to understand and use. A lot of the features were really cool and made my documentary look cool. I have used this tool before, therefore it was easier for me, and I had already played around with it,so I knew how to use it. 
Evaluate & reflect on your plan.
 Describe modifications have you made as you proceeded.Evaluate & reflect on your plan. Describe modifications have you made as you proceeded.
Along the way I made a lot of changes, I wasn't that accurate with my timings, so I had to do a lot in a little time, but I finished my documentary ahead of time. My filming and editing of the documentary was happening side by side which was not that good, but I managed. I didnt change my plan though, because my plan helped me most of the way and was pretty good. It helped me manage my time and what i needed to do (to the most part, then i forgot about it)

The plan helped me to know what I still had to do, and what I had already completed. The plan was pretty straightforward so it was useful

Evaluate Design: I think my design is pretty detailed as to what I am going to do in my final product. My design includes the amount of time needed for a particular area/topic that I am going to cover. My design states what I am going to do throughout the documentary, what is going to take place, what every minute is going to be about, so I am pretty satisfied with my design.





I chose design 2 because I took more time to complete it, and it was much more thorough and included more details. It covered more areas as wel
