The Big Day
The story was about a man trying to get to the woman he loves before she marries someone else. He was running late because he was stuck in traffic. He finally got there right before they were saying their vows. The purpose of the entire video was to advertise the Volkswagen car.
Who - Jeremy
What - is driving to the church to stop Sara from marrying Ethan
When - March 20th, Sara's wedding day
Where - on the road and then in a church in Germany
Why - to protest his love to Sara
How - by driving the new Volkswagen
A man named Jeremy is driving anxiously down the wet roads in a Volkswagen. He's on his way to a church where the bride, Sara, is preparing to walk down the aisle and marry Ethan. Sara feels nervous and is showing signs of uncertainty. "I'm not sure I'm making the right choice," said Sara. Meanwhile, Jeremy is trying to overcome obstacles to reach the church and arrives just in time to protest his love for Sara and stop the big day. "I'm in love with Sara, and I think she loves me too," said Jeremy.

Final Exam Preview Assignment
1) The first thing I watched was a video using the second link. The video taught me how to use iMovie. Also, it showed me how to get started and the best things to use.
I also read about the basic editing in iMovie using the last link. It showed me where everything is located. It also taught me important things like trimming, splitting a clip, and more.
2) One thing that I already knew about iMovie was how to choose a theme for the project but the websites did a good job of explaining it.
3) One new thing I learned was how to trim the clips.
4) I'm concerned about the audio part of the project.
5) I'm confident that I'll be able to get all the pictures done early and ready to use.
6) I was thinking that for my video I can do the process of sister's swim meet and how she prepares for it.
Baltimore Riot
Being a photographer during the riot in Baltimore would be challenging. Trying to capture everything would be a difficult task because there was so much happening. Also, if I wanted great photos I would have to put myself in the position where I'm up close and personal which could be dangerous.
