Multimedia Finished
Today, we finished our multimedia presentation by adding more information, pictures and music. I chose the music called "Look what you've done" and my teammates picked the song "Funky town" for the credits. I reckoned it worked really well, hopefully my teammates thought the same thing as me. Now, all we have to do is to think of a way of how to present our multimedia.
Finished!!
Today we finished our presentation, we have compiled it into a media player file. We have submitted it to Mr Arcaro. He expects us to talk about GM during our presentaion. We will have to run toolbox sessions during the next week, which I don't like. At ;east we are ready for our presentation.

Work
We extended our multimedia presentation to about 120seconds it took us ages but in the end we still got some work done. That was because we couldn't decide on a subtopic, we tried to do an informative one but it was too boring, so we changed it. Now we have got the gist of it so I feel that we will finish it quickly.

Multimedia Presentation
Today, our history teacher, Mr Harris, assisted our team with some newspaper information on GM foods. I reckoned its important, so I printed a hardcopy and started to analyze it by underlining important points, such as the pros and cons about GM food. I found out that Modified food can help cure thousands of people, but the government wants to stop farmers from using GM products. After i've underlined, I started to ask William to add things on the Multimedia Presentation.
Presentaion
Today I added some length to out presentation. It is now now about a total of one minute and twenty seconds. We made the presentation include both side of the GM argument. Those for it and those against it. I feel that we are ready to finish it tomorrow. We only have tomorrow to do it.
Our presentation now only requires some background music, which Andy says he is going to get. I hope the music is OK, not too fast, not too sad, just right. WE only have tomorrow to finish off the presentation. By the end of Friday we have to have put the music on, finished the main body of the presentation, put the credits in and make it a Windows Media Player File. We have to do all that tomorrow in three periods. I feel we can do all thos tasks.

restart of presentation
This morning in periods one and two we had a guest speaker who talked about sex Education, it lasted for two entire periods. The truth is that I found it a bit boring. And my legs were a bit stiff after sitting on the same chair for one and a half hours.
In the last 2 periods of the day, Mr Cantwell told us about concentrating in particular on GM food. He told us how the proteins are made and even brought us a poster describing the gene and what it does.
After lunch we decided to (re)start our presentation on GM food. Andy logged in (with five dollars of recharged credit) and we did the presentation on his computer account. We have done about 40 seconds in total on the presentation. We got news yesterday that we had to do the presentations on Monday, now we have three days to finish off the presentation, I think the presentation needs to be about one and a half to minutes in length.
Today we changed the Gantt chart to have our presentations on Monday.
In the middle of the day we had electives so we did not have Xplore. Tomorrow we only have 4 periods in Xplore and on Friday we only have 3 periods in Xplore. So in total we only have 7 periods left to finish off our presentation. That may seem as a lot of time but we still need to add more length to our presentation and music as well as explanations. So we will have to work hard on completing the presentation over the next 2 days. Hopefully we will finsh it by then.

Multimedia Presentation
We began on the media presentation (again) today, our whole group decided on focusing mainly on GM Foods. Instead of doing a bit of everything, we felt focusing on one thing will give us a deeper understanding on what we were more interested in. We all decided on using Movie Maker because we all had some experience over it. We gathered lots pictures, and began the 1st 30seconds of the clip. We still haven't decided on what song to use as the background music but we've decided that Andy should choose the music cause he claims he has "better" taste.
