Video Project

Doing the video project made me realize how important my project  really is. To do the video I used a tool named Prezi which I did not know existed. Prezi is such a great tool to use for presentations or just simple videos. The moral to this, was that creating a project always cause people to find new tools and ideas.

Below is a link to my video:

Brief Proposal Presentation to Class

1. Theme 
Obesity has been increasing in a great amount of numbers in the past decades. There is a need for this young generation to improve their health in order to lead this country in the future. A way to fix this problem would be by increasing physical education in schools. To full fill this idea, the curriculum that is being used at the moment will be edited to increase more time for physical activities. The overall point of this project would be to encourage parents and teachers to act for more time of  physical education classes in schools.

2. Props and other assets, food, photographs, building material. 
Props and other assets are essential to provide visual aid for the judges. However, for my project I will not be using many props. Nevertheless, I am going to be showing the audience a PSA, a poster and some statistical graphs that show the increase of childhood obesity over the years.

3. Production Timeline

I am done with my poster,  but I still need to work on my website and PSA. For my PSA I just need to fix the voice over and add some background  music to attract the audience's attention. I am still in the process of finishing my website, I need to upload some pictures, videos and the edited curriculum that I am working on. I hope that by the end of next week with the help of God I will be done.

Website Experience 2

At the beginning I thought it was going to be easy to make a website, but I was wrong.  Everything at the beginning seemed fine,  I had decided I was going to use Photoshop in order to be more creative. However, when I began to link the pages I was just really confused. In addition to that  my website did not match with my poster therefore I decided I was going to start all over. Now I am using Wix.com and it is a lot easier. I like working on Wix.com but I have not managed to finish my website. Below there is a link of what I have done so far.

Website Experience

Sadly I have not been able to finish my website. Even though it is a long process I have been learning a great amount of information that I did not know existed. It may become frustrating when my page does not look the way I imagined it but I know that I will be able to finish.
