In today's class we began by working in random groups to troubleshoot problems we faced in last week's class. This helped to generate different solutions to the problems. By communicating with others and solving problems together it is easier to reach a solution, because you are feeding off one another's ideas. These skills of being able to communicate and problem solve are very useful in future break downs in projects. It helps to avoid future problems and continue with the project.
Also in today's class we divided into groups and analyzed the youtube video gardyn. One group observed that the background is blurred, which causes the viewer to focus on the movement of the hands. Another group noticed that the sound/image relationship allows the video to move forward, without it the video is very fragmented and jumpy. The video is filled with familiar images to the mother and we are slowly brought into her world in her garden. Rhythm is emphasized through repetition. The mother's auto-toned voice is heard when she is touching things in her garden. This helped in analyzing what goes into editing a video project.
We also went through the steps of editing and importing sound, video, and pictures into iMovie '11.
