Design Brief

10. Write a short statement of what you are going to make, why you are going to make it, and for whom you are making it.

- I am going to create a video showing how to use the design cycle and the importance of it, and how it very affective. We are making this to show the sixth grade students what the design cycle is and how important it's in the MYP course. 

11. What are the requirements for this assignment? 

- To use the best product and to make it understandable for sixth grade students as well as a good simplicy level and a way to understand the design cycle and to show what each step means.

12. What are the limitations you have with this assignment?- Understandable for sixth grade students, showing all the steps in the design cycle in a creative yet simple way 13. How will you "test" your project? - Which product is more acerate, which sorce is easier to control and use. 

Window / Mac Media ..

Window Media & Mac Media are the same website for different computer system but consest of the same type of video function. The sites are used to create videos in a order that you create the theme the plot, even if the video shots were not taken in one continues shot. It's used to add effects, subtitles, captain, make sound effects and more. Like what you may see in videos on youtube that are not taken in one continues shot.
I am gonna grade this site by
Simplicity : how easy this site is to understand and sign in and use.
Fonts : the amount of fonts I found that I can insert.
Music : the music that you are able to insert and unable to insert.

WINDOW / MAC Media ;


Simplicity : I give the simplicity level of this website a 8 out of 10. The website is easy to use if you have a window computer or mac computer. But the simplicity is used on how well you know how to use you computer and how easy it is for you to connect with how to use the website. It's simple to understand but takes time to final create your final product and make it absoultey perfect. It takes time and patiance.

Fonts : I give the font level for this website a 9 out of 10. The website has many many fonts just like the window's documents you use on a daily use. It has almost if not more than at least 40 types of fonts, not including the fonts that you use on a daily use , like Arial Black. But many more creative fonts. The fonts are easy to insert for subtitles, captains, and more.

Music : I give the music level for this website a 7 out of 10. You can insert music effect like a large car noise, and bomb explosion, people cheering and more and you can also include music that you listen to on a daily use but you have to use a certain time to insert the video to a certain extent. And you have to insert it on your own at a certain time to meet the video before the next video shot time.

Day 2 : Investigation Reflection

Today research way I could create my video to solve the problem of how to help the sixth graders understand the design cycle.
I found that there any many video tools, I can use to create my video to solve my problem. I learned that you can add captain, add effects, make it different tone and different fonts to write captains and make it more unquie animato, windowmedia, captaintube. These are the websites I found the information to add captain and make a video. Right now, I have chosen to make a video with a plot to solve a problem while a group of kids solve the problem and another doesn't use the design cycle to solve the problem, and show how much harder it takes to work out the problem.
