In science we learned how to be safe in the lab. Many of the cernarios we learned about were common sense but a few I didn’t know like no earphones in the lab and to waft chemical away from your face.

Our project was to make a humorous video showing what not to do in the lab. My group members were Willa and Ruby. We thought of three different cenarios we could demonstrate that each had to be at least 15 secounds long. We tried to add humour by having people slip on chemicals in slow motion which was probably my favourite part of this project.

Camp Capilano was my first small but experiencial PLP trip. From the start I was already intrigued when we were shown our first assignment. I could tell after that we all were exited to get working. The first assignments was to make a reality Tv intro. Sydney, Izzy, Spencer, and Kate were in my group for the first two projects. Our reality tv show was called gone wild which was about celebritys stuck in the woods. This assignments taught me a lot about how it’s important to use your surroundings to there fullest potential, how audio is as important as the visual, and that it’s important to write your ideas down and plan before you get right into the filming. I also learned from all of the projects that it is helpful if you split your time and the jobs amongst your group members to create the best project possible in the amount of time you have.

When we got to the camp after a quick hike we had lunch, then watched the videos. We got criteria on our videos and overall we didn’t do as well as we should of. Then we were on to the next project but this time there was no visuals so you had to work harder to make the listener understand the story your trying to portray. This time my group planned and focused on how we could make the audio more interesting. Sadly this project still wasn’t very good. The last project we did was making a podcast on identity. We had to think of something that happened to us that made us who we are today. Unlike the other two projects we got to pick our parntners. Me and Claire split up the work, discussed and wrote down ideas, had clear nice audio and music, and edited together till we were happy with the work we had done. Finally this project was a success and we both could be proud of our work.

I thought camp Capilano was a great way to start off the year and helped me learn what the teachers are looking for in my future work this year.

There are many good ideas of how the war started. I think underestimatation of what this war could do and the fear of losing power or worse is what caused the war to unfold. I thought  professor

G. Herchfeld and J. Remack

Both had good points on why the war started. At this time there had never a dealt with a war so big so know one knew the destruction that could come from this war. The war rapidly grew because of the alliances that were already in play even before any of this started. The main two alliances was the Central power: Austria-Hungary, Germany, Bulgaria and the Ottoman Empire and the Allies: Serbia, Russia, France, the United Kingdom, Italy, Belgium and the United States.

The alliances were one of the most inportant fracters in my mind. The alliances were known by all of the population of Europe. Everyone was trying to scare one enother hoping for the outcome to be victory

My first draft of the Why Did the war start we tried using a green screen which for many reasons didn’t work out. Our audio was not as well done as hoped. There was noises in the background like at the start it sounded like clicking, and the music was to loud. Though, I was happy with our creativity in this project and we had grood information.

Even though we did ok on this project we decided to make it even better. This time we didn’t use the green screen so the visual already looked better. We decided to dress up as our characters,(mine was G. Herchfeld), to make it a little more interesting. I was much happier with the final results of this project and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
