For this project we had to create a bucket list. It had to contain ten things I wanted to see, do, or accomplish in my lifetime. Although there were many steps I had to take to complete this project, I followed them, and I am proud. The first step was to figure out ten things to put on my list, three of which had to be places out of the country. After getting the ten things I had to find four interesting facts about them and record the URL's from the Website in which I found them. Next I had to find 2-4 pictures that related to my topic and I also had to record the URL's for them. Meanwhile, I had to create and record a script I put together, each topic having one paragraph. After gathering all of the pictures, URL's, and recordings I could finally put together my movie. In the program Movie Maker I had to add all of the thirty pictures I found and I had to put the corresponding recordings with them. After putting it all together and making it sound like a movie I had to add the credits tot he end, which are the URL's. There are three URL pages: resources, music, and pictures. Then I went to the Website Soundzabound and found a recoding to play during the creditd, put it in, and my movie was finnished.
I liked a lot about the project. I liked the fact that we could express ourselves and choose what we wanted to have on out list. I also enjoyed watching all of my hard work come together to form my movie.
The only thing I honestly found hard about this project was the length of the movie. The movie was supposed to be 3-5 minutes long, but mine ended up being 8 minutes long.
I could use a digital story for other projects such as, book projects. I am glad I have learned how to do all of this. I will definitely use these skills in the future.
