claymation essay

Angie Coomber and i have just finished our claymation videos in Mr. berquist's class. i worked with my favorite person in the world ANGELA COOMBER she is an awesome partner! we did our claymation on Francisco Coronado he was an explorer looking for the seven cities of gold but never found it.

there was many things that i liked about this project like being able to work with Angie and i liked making the clay figures. Angie did most of the photography which she really likes doing and did a great job. but i would have to say my very favorite part was watching the video when we were all done with it. Watching the video was really funny because we got to see all the things we did wrong and what we could fix but it was really funny watching all the times we messed up because when we messed up, we messed up bad. the video was my favorite because it was the first time i have ever done claymation and i liked seeing how i did. in the video i did narration and some dialog. the dialog was another one of my favorites because you had to change your voice sometimes so you would have to sound like a man which was fun. at the end we fixed up the video as best we could and it turned out to be great!

the most difficult part about the project was probably the narration and making the video. the narration was hard because you had to talk at an exact speed and sometimes you would go to fast and others you went to slow so it was really hard to get it perfect. the narration also had a lot of big weird words because Coronado went to many different places and met many people and Indians which have really hard names to say. making the video was difficult because of all the pictures you had to take. you had to take about 60 pictures and you could only move the clay about half an inch every time you took a picture. the video was also hard because we had to figure out the exact time we need to put in for narration and we had to put time on each picture! thats 60 pictures! it took us a long time to make this video but in the end it was a fantastic video and it was all worth it.

i learned many things about while doing this project. But there as only two that really meant a lot to me and wont soon forget. one of those things was working with a partner is really helpful. also you need to listen to your partner and be willing to help. you also need to make sure you can work with your partner and not fight but to work together as a team. i had a great partner during this project and she did everything i asked her to and did most of the computer work. another thing i learned is Mr. Berquist is the best teacher ever! he is so helpful and did a lot of things to help Angie and I finish our project. Thank you Mr. Berquist for all the help!

our project turned out to be great it was funny and people can learn a lot about Coronado if they watch it. it shows all about his adventures and who he met in all his expeditions. Angie and i learned very much doing this project and Angie and Mr. Berquist were a great help!
