Time management on a big project is very important. You have to make sure you have enough time for everything. This is one of my first big projects of my college career, so this is a test drive of how I should spilt up my time. Interviewing people did not take that long. I spent about an hour doing that. Brain storming is a never ending process. I am always thinking of ways to make my project better. That part of the project is always on going. Gathering quotes and articles is never easy because you always have to read and dissected them. And then you have to make sure they fit well with your project. Finding music is the same way. You have to make sure that the song fits with the project and flows well with everything else. Naturally I did not have trouble transferring materials to my computer because I am using my webcam to take all the videos. Learning how to use the video software took a little longer than I thought it would. I thought windows movie maker would be easy to use but I was mistaken. I asked my sister who goes to Uconn if she could help me. She denied me. I then asked my other sister if she could help. She couldn’t because she had projects of her own to do. I finally asked my best friend if he could help me because I know he is a master of Imovie. He was very helpful in that process. So far the whole process took about 5-7 hours. I plan to most likely double that because I want a good grade on this project. What I could have done differently on this project is take the videos more seriously. The first video took about an hour to do because we had so many takes. We could not stop laughing.
