If you were to give your film a rating from 1 out of 10 (10 being the best) what would it be?I think that I would rate my film maybe a 7. The reason is because we covered most of our information but didn't quite create a good enough story to portray it in.Did the movies during the lecture enhance the lecture or distract you?I think that the movies enhance the lecture because from what may get left out in the movie, I go back and read it in the book later.After watching the videos with class is there any subject you would have rather done if given the opportunity?I think that the subject that my group did suited us well. We're a smaller group than most and with only the three of us, it was easy to complete the assignment without to many inconviences.Name one thing you remember from the lecture that made you want to look up more information while on the internet after you posted your blog?After watching Randy's video, I was interested in learning more about the race to find gold and land.

Did you find it difficult to think of an idea to creatively express history?No, once we got our first idea, things just seemed to fall into place after that.Who did you work well the best in your group?I worked with Ashley alot about the idea and the locations where we filmed them.Who was your group leader and how well did they do?Ashley was our leader and the video worked out great. We got all of our videos no problem and everything was smooth.Did you feel like you had enough time to complete the video assignment?Yes, the three days we used was plenty of time to capture all of our videos.What was your role in the film and what is one thing you would have changed in the film if you had more time?In the film I played the main role of the mother, Jaun De Onate, and the Spanish that Dylan chased out of New Mexico. I would change a few videos and film them differently if I had the chance.

The countries he went to and how he died really stick out to me.Do you look forward to making a historical film for the next section?Yes, based on how last week went, I am very excited to make more videos and learning about history through other people's eyes.If you could add one more person to your group who would it be and why?I would like to add randy to our group simply because the videos we would make would be amazingly fun and enjoyable to the rest of the class.
