It was worth it
The most important project I have ever focused on has to be the time that I trained pigs to fly............................................................................................................................................. Not really.
The most important project I have ever dealt with would have to be a documentary.
No, I did not make some two hour long Ken Burns documentary. It was a small 10 min documentary I made for my biology class. In biology class we were given the task to create a power point presentation based around a disease or any other topic that was approved. I chose diabetes. The power point required a certain amount of slides, and at least one creative slide. So I wanting to think out side the bun, and decided to ask if I could do a small documentary instead of just a slide, it was approved, and I made one.
What I did was a "Ken Burns©" style documentary, where I would zoom in on certain pictures, while having a narration involving the topic of the documentary. So what I did was sit down and record a conversation with my mother, (Yes she knew she was being recorded), and I asked her questions about my Grandfather who was her father, reason being that he had dealt with diabetes for almost half of his entire life.
I took a thirty minute long conversation and turned it in to a ten minute long video.
Then after days of editing, snipping, and clipping I was done, and ready to present. I was so ready to present. I was so sure that my idea would become a great standing point in my creative endeavors. Then it was it, finally my turn to present. at the end of my presentation i showed a piture, of my family and poited out to them who had diabetes, then came the very best part, the part where i showed my documentary. It was a success. I was given an A on the assignment, and would have received A with the documentary alone.
That was the most important project I had ever worked on
