This prezi contains information about my family, fact and pictures about all 15 of them!


Here is my infographic. This contains a bunch of statistics about my family!
My stop-motion animation can be viewed in my student folder. The video is about a typical day in the Hamilton house. The video shows what a couple of my family members do everyday.

Journal - Where are you right now on your "Who Do You Think You Are" project? What did you do over the break for the project? Did you interview anyone? Use the checklist below to figure out what you have finished, what you are still working on and what you still have to do.

In the project, I am about as far as the calender says. I am on track, I think. I am currently working on the prezi of the family tree. I have all of the circles done and names filled out, although I plan to put in the pictures today. I also have  the email, family echo, and interviews done, and I have briefly started the the infograph. Over the break I found the pictures for my prezi and scanned them into the computer and emailed them to myself. Over the next week, I plan to finish my family tree and my infographic.

Stop-motion places

1. Abigail Krump. Rock Climb(all around the world). It had a good idea and the pictures were good as well.

2. Dana Oudejans. Sticky Note Design. It had a good pattern and the colors and idea was really neat.

3. Zoe Krump. Marker setting(love). The patterns that she made were cool.

Journal - How did you stop motion animation turn out? If you could give it a grade, what would you give it out of 60 points? What did you learn from creating this video?

I think my overall presentation came out a lot better than I thought it would. I like how the movement flows a lot better than I had expected. I wish I could have done more in the editing stage, but I didn't have enough time to do that, because I spent awhile on music. If I were to give it a grade I would give it a 56/60, because I can see how a couple points would be taken off here and there, but not a significant amount. From the video, I learned how to farther use movie maker.

Journal - How far along are you on your stop motion animation? What did you do over the weekend to work on you stop motion animation? Do you have all your pictures today? Will you have all your pictures by the end of the hour? Give me a detailed updated.
I am decently far along with the stop motion animation.  Yesterday, I had my friend come over and she helped me take the pictures.  It took about 3 hours to take all the pictures and put them on the flash drive that I have. Yes, I do have all of my pictures today, and since I have them already I will still have them by the end of the hour. I think I am on tops of it and making good progress in terms of finishing.

Journal - What are you planning on doing for your stop-motion animation video? What story are you going to tell? How will your video be fun and different? Who is taking your photos? When are you taking your photos?

The topic that I am planning on doing is something with littlist pet shops. They are gonna be on a play ground going down a slide. Then, all the sudden one is gonna fall of and break a bone is his or her body. Finally they will go to the doctor and the bone all fixed up. Mine will be different because it is a different topic in general, and done with different prompts. I am going to be taking my photos. I will be taking them over the weekend, most likely on Saturday.

Journal - What story will your storyboard tell? Explain in detail.

My storyboard was about tying a shoe. The whole thing is pretty simple. The first slide I have the untied shoe laces, in the next I have the laces tied in one knot. For the third slide, I show a bunny ear and getting ready to wrap the lace around and through the whole, which is what the next slide is. The last slide is finishing of and pulling the string through the loop. I used my  tennis shoes to take the pictures.
