Mockumentary Crusader Battle Reflection
1. Did you tell a story or just report information?
Our group did tell a story. Not just reporting information. Our story is about the Siege of Antioch (battle of Antioch) that happened during the first crusade. And we talked/act about how the crusaders got control of Antioch and got attacked in the end by the Muslim Turks.
2. What went well? Be specific.
What went well is during writing the script. It was easy because we've learned about the battle from our research. So, it was pretty easy to write the script knowing all the events and characters in the battle.
3. What was challenging? How would you handle that challenge different now? Explain.
The filming was the challenging part. On the first day, one of our members didn't come to school. So, we only filmed one scene. And I went crazy worrying that the project is due the next day (Thursday). But the I realized that we still have time. Because we don't have social studies the next day. And on Thursday, our missing member finally come to school and the filming went very smooth. Next time, I would try to contact my friends first if they are coming to school or not. And if not, we will discuss what we should do.
4. What was enjoyable by creating this project? Did the entertaining parts take away or add to the overall message you were trying to communicate?
Even though the filming was challenging. On the other hand, it was also the most enjoyable part of creating this project. We also got new experiences from filming with the green screen. Our entertaining parts like when me (Peter Batholomew) found the holy lance, I kind of played with the holy lance and it was a bit silly. But it didn't take away the overall message we were trying to communicate because it shows that me (Peter Bartholomew) am very proud that we've found the holy lance.
5. What did you learn from this project?
I learned how to use the green screen from both filmings and from editing with my friends. At first, I didn't know how to edit the green screen in iMovie. But my friends, Palmie and Bebe taught me how to do it.
