| We were able to work more productively by following our rules. Our rules were there to help us to create a better working space and improve our work. | Editing on the documentary took a lot of time. Harvey had to miss some of his personal time to help out the group. This meant that we had to make harvey focus on the editing while Oscar and Shawn worked on the website and making sure everything is up to our standard. | We started to learn how to edit videos using a greenscreen/bluescreen. This helped us in our video appearance but since we are still new to this it meant that it could look a bit novice at times. |
| Our quality of the information. We used a multitude of sources to help find our information about our devices. | We didn’t follow our work plan. For the start and most of the middle of our working time we were able to follow the plan but towards the end we needed to catch up a bit. | We created a website using wordpress for the first time. Creating websites isn’t new to us but using this new software made it so that we needed to learn how its features worked but also how we can implement them. |
| We were able to clean up our speaking mistakes in the editing of the video. We were all a little camera fright but using Harvey’s editing skills helped with reducing our errors in our documentary. | Our audio and video equipment weren’t that great. The video and audio of the documentary wasn’t the best due because we didn’t have great equipment on hand. You can hear a lot of background and white noise in the video and the quality of the video was poor because we filmed on our phones. | We missed our own set deadline. We missed the deadline by just a bit because we were editing our video in the lesson but we were able to finish most of our parts. This wasn’t the worst thing in the world because we made our own deadline far before the actual deadline. |

Design Brief
In groups of three (3) you are to create an episode for the documentary series Technology Through Time using Imovie, or other software by
negotiation. This documentary must include information on one past, one current and one emerging technology in ONE chosen industry.
Each member of your group will be allocated one of the following types of technologies:
• A past technology can be considered as something which was used in the past, but is no longer in use in the community.
• A current technology can be considered as something which is in widespread use in today’s society.
• An emerging technology can be considered as something that is currently being developed, or will be developed within
the next five to ten years.
You will be marked individually on the content of your video (i.e. the content of your chosen technology). You will also receive a group mark.
This will relate to your documentary episode as well as the documentation of your group work.
