For my Summer Project I chose to research Assassins Creed, and I presented it in the form of a cartoon with my voice as an overlay.
In order to make said cartoon I had to create over 70 still images and use Sony Vegas to put them all in a timeline along with the recording I had made earlier.
The overal reception from the class was positive, and people felt I had used humour effectively. I agree and think I was able to engage the audience and present my information in an interesting and unorthadox manner.
However, I do feel that I could have gone into more depth about some media aspects, such as media language. In my defence, not only was it more difficult to analyse a game, but also the amount of time it takes to create simply 20 seconds of video was quite demanding.
One thing that people did criticise was the speed at which I had been talking, and they argued that it made it difficult to keep up. However, this was intentional as I had planned to use the speed of my speech to comic effect, and it helped keep the audience engaged in tangent with the pictures and phrases that appeared on screen briefly.
Overall, I'm quite pleased with how my project turned out. I feel I put it quite a bit of effort and was able to present the research effectively.
