My Critical Thinking Project

My Critical thinking project is going pretty well.  My First interview took about an hour to do because we had to do about thirty five takes.  We kept laughing while we were filming.  Although it took long it was pretty funny going back and watching all the outtakes.  We finally finished and I edited out all of the bloopers.  I thought about adding music but it was late and I was tired.  So I decided that I would add music some other time.  The next day I interviewed someone else.  We did not have as many bloopers at the first time but it was still pretty fun.  One problem I am having is using windows movie maker.  I have only used Imovie and that was just a couple of times.  I do not really know how to do much.  Especially the special effects part of the project.  I’m not really sure how to add pictures or writing, but I am sure eventually I will figure it out. Another problem I am having is getting professors to interview.  With all my projects and homework to do it is tough to find free time during their office hours.  And getting them to talk on camera is also a challenge. Most of them say they don’t want to be on camera, or they have too much work to do.  A couple of teachers told me that they will answer my questions but they would not go on camera.  So I will probably just end up quoting my teachers.  I am also having problems finding a student leader to interview.  Everyone has busy schedules and the last thing they want to do is have some freshman asking them questions after a long day.  My schedule is also very booked.  I have to go home this weekend so that is valuable time that I could be using to interview people.
