Chosen Design: #1
I chose design number one because it is the most complete out of all the four. It has the most interesting video clips and it meets all of the specifications mentioned in the test plan. What I really like about this design is that fact that it has a diagram of the heart because this way it is much easier for the people who are watching to understand. Also there are about ten interesting facts and also three advantages that the people who are watching this video should consider. This design talks only about one technology and is aimed at the specific age group I am addressing. The length of the video is also correct and is captivating and interesting. However there are things I could improve, for example I could add more scenes where people talk and act to make it more interesting.

Creating a Gantt chart can be very useful because it can help you to plan your time effectively. Also in this way only with one look I can determine at what stage of my project I am and what I have to do next. I think that I included all the things that have to be in my project and listed all of them in detail. I created it by using Microsoft Excel, I listed all the tasks I had to complete and then the starting time and the hours it would take me. Then I inserted a graph and modified the preferences of the axis so it looked this way.
Step by step plan:
Date Time Task Materials needed15.11.13 18.00 – 18.30 Write a script for my video (having already chosen actors) Word document15.11.13 18.30 – 19.30 Film all the video Camera or phone15.11.13 19.30 – 20.00 Cut all the pieces of the video I don’t need using movie
makerMovie maker, computer
16.11.13 17.00 – 17.30 Insert the two slides with the 10 facts Movie maker, computer
16.11.13 17.30 – 18.00 Add the remaining parts (looking at storyboard) Movie maker, computer, storyboard
16.11.13 18.00 – 18.30 Add all the transitioning effects Movie maker, computer, storyboard
16.11.13 18.30 – 19.00 Check if the video runs smoothly and if it lasts less than 3 minutes

Creating a step by step plan can be very useful as it tells you every little step you have to do to create your product. I think that i included the correct amount of details in my step by step plan because it is not a very long process, however all the steps are inclded and somebody could take this plan and create my product because everything you need to do is celarly explained. I also listed all the materials that i will need for each part of my step by step plan so when i come to the Create Stage i am already preapred and i will also have all the materials ready. What i can do to improve this step by step plan is to add even more detial about how I have to do all these things like fpr example how to insert the video in Movie Maker. What i am going to do next is start creating my product. While i will be creating the product i will have to take screenshots of the making of it and record it in my Process Journal.
