Topic  Our topic was a Claymation video. We chose Claymation because we wanted to make a video, but not the kind most people would make.  We wanted to see how long of a Claymation video we could make in the time provided for working on the make project  We will show out video and explain our process

Meetings and Assignments  Team meetings consisted of a short discussion in the beginning of a class period deciding what we were going to do that day  Team assignments included working together to prepare characters and sets for the video, and having one person work the camera and the other move the characters on screen

Research and Effort  Both team members showed effort because we had to work together to take pictures and prepare or we wouldn’t have completed the video  Research was looking up how to make some of the characters and finding tutorials showing how to make a Claymation video

Trials and Planning  Our plan was, prepare for two weeks, film for as long as it took, and edit the video to make it professional. Then we had to make a presentation  When we started the preparations, they took more time to complete than we originally thought. This put us behind. Then we had to change the content of the video in order to finish taking the pictures

Feedback and Documentation  For our feedback we asked people what they thought of our prep so far, and if we were on track  As documentation, we explained what we had done everyday during the class period

Final Documentation  Today we finished taking all of the pictures for our video  We’ll be putting them all together and polishing the video for presenting on Thursday

Conclusion  Our project was successful because the point was to make a video and that was what we did. If we had to change anything it would be to give ourselves more time to take pictures so that it would look better  Our conclusions are that making a Claymation video is long and you’ll have to be patient in order to finish making one
