You’re probably wondering what’s with this? Why have I suddenly decided to channel my roots and scream ‘EH’ from the top of my igloo, riding my moose, with Tom Hortons, while wearing hockey gear and apologizing for shouting?
I’m not doing that. Though I may, its on my bucket list. Anyways, we had to do a mini video project on ‘What Canada Means To Me’. It started with our teachers proposing the idea to us. Some people from an organization called Here’s My Canada were coming to to help us make videos about what Canada means to us.
I could go into a long thirty page essay about what Canada means to me…. but I’m going to instead give you a thirty second video
Watch that? Good. If not, I don’t know why you’re reading on.
So that was what Canada means to me! Community is really important so that you can gain friends and have people to help and that can help you, like in the video. It’s also helpful if you’re in a zombie apocalypse, you can have people who won’t betray you. I’m looking at you, Walking Dead.
The video was pretty simple to make. It started off with getting the idea. I decided on the story because it gives a more personal connection, taking about my neighbourhood, which is like a second family. The dads shovelling the driveway, it’s always a happy memory for me.
The rest was simple. Record the audio, film a few things, like drawing the Canadian flag and filming the forest, and then we just had to put it together using iMovie.
Anyways, that’s all for this post!
