Answer the following questions thoroughly on your blog. 

1. What was your stop motion animation about? Why did you choose your video to be about this? Was it because it was easy because it would be fun, or it would be challenging? Explain your reasoning behind your project (and be honest).
2. If you could rate your stop motion on a 1-10 scale. 1 being low effort and no very good and 10 being out of this world/mindblowing, how would you rate your project? Explain why.
3. In hindsight, what would you do differently the second time around? Better lighting? Time management? Explain yourself.
4. Explain what makes your stop motion animation unique. How do you believe you thought "outside of the box" on this project? 
5. What grade do you feel you deserve on this project? Explain your reasoning.

When you have done a really thorough job of answering these questions on your blog, you may have a study hall the rest of the hour. This blog post is worth 3 times as many as the others. Make it count!

My stop motion animation was about Tetris. I made the video with gummy bears and reenacted a game of Tetris. I had no reason as to why I chose this, but I thought it would look cool. I thought it would be fun to create a stop motion video with gummy bears. I could also eat gummy bears as I went along. I would give my project an eight for effort. It took me about two hours to finish it and I skipped basketball practice so I could have it done. I think it tells a simple story well. The second time around I would change lots of things. I would make sure my feet were out of every picture I took. I would also try to keep my camera angles more consistent. I believe I made it unique by changing the title scene and credits to look cool. I also don't think anybody made their stop motion with gummy bears. I believe I deserve an A for this project because I put a lot of time and effort into this project. I also made it with gummy bears and that is unique. The music matches the mood and the camera angle is pretty good throughout.
