Our task was to make a science video that will be entered into a national science competition on the theme of change. We decided to make a video on the theme, of how your memory changes overtime as you get older. We decided to show case this by making an informative rap and editing it on Cap Cut. Our video will be assessed for how informative, relevant to the theme and how entertaining it is, which I think our video/rap fits the criteria’s.
I think that our group was very organised, we had finished our video early meaning that we had a lot of extra time, and it wasn’t stressful. Everyone in the group had roles of being a rapper in the video and we all had fair shares of two scenes each. But only one person was able to do the editing for the video because we could only do it on one device. We all contributed evenly to our research, and we all helped with submitting the video to the competition. Everyone was able to contribute their ideas to the project and we all valued each other’s ideas and took them into consideration. For example, we had an idea that there would be a granny at the start but since no one wanted to act as the granny we scrapped that idea. If I had the opportunity to do this project again, we would of improved our video by putting music in the background and having a schedule of what we would be doing for each lesson so we would of been more organised.
Our group was very kind and collaborative, but we did have one disagreement. None of us wanted to be the granny for the start of the video. Because of this it had caused some conflicts between us. So, we had cut the granny scene out and changed it to a drawing of something else. I would of improved this by having a video of us acting out the drawing that I drew to make the video slightly more entertaining.
Our group managed our time well. We had finished and uploaded our video on time. This was because we were very quick with our research and voice recordings. We worked very proactively for our filming and finished before the other groups. If I had to repeat the project again, we would be most likely of spend more time on filming for when we were rapping for the video because we couldn’t refilm it many times because it would of consumed to much of our time. We would also probably would try to use an editing app that we can all use and share, so we don’t put the load of editing all one person. Overall, this experience has been fun. I have learnt a lot more about memory and that it’s fun to be a gangster/rapper.
