Stop Motion: Ecological Cycle

Group Members:
Katie C -Oxygen Cycle
Kennedy J -Water Cycle
Micole L -Nitrogen Cycle
Evelina B -Carbon Cycle
Aileen K -Phosphorus Cycle

a/What the heck is STOPMOTION?

A stop motion is a video that is made by taking many pictures of an image slowly changing and then when it’s done the pictures will play through one after another at a faster speed making it look like the image is moving. (Ex, The flip books that you flip through quickly and it looks like a video)

b/ Name what app & equipment your team will use?

My team is going to use a Stop Motion app on one of our phones. We also used paper, pencil crayons, pencils, flashlight and a stand to the phone. Then we used Micole’s Surface Tablet to edit it.

Biomes Investigation

I think that this project with Katie and Evelina went well, we worked well together and we had all shared ideas and worked together. it was a good experience to work with people in a group and knowing that you had people with you to help you work when you were busy or wouldn’t be in class that day. I think the only problem we had was communication because when we were trying to get a hold of one another, we wouldn’t reply immediately and when we would reply it would be to late. I think that next time we should try to be more organized and now what we’re doing before we leave class so we won’t have these problems again.
