Words of Wisdom



We interviewed one of our team members, Leleaka Anakalea's grandpa named Dave Stewart. We chose his story as our project because it had some great words of wisdom and inspirational words. We also chose his story as our topic because he told how he had some big, life changing decisions to make, and he made the right choices and now he is successful. I think that people will be interested to hear Dave Stewarts story because of his braveness and determination to do what he wanted, but of course he knew it first came with hard work.

Dave Stewart's words of wisdom are important because it's encouraging people to never give up and to work hard to accomplish your goals and dreams. His words of wisdom are also important because it helps people realize that no matter how scary some things may be, change is not always a bad thing. His words show that taking chances may not always end up bad. Taking chances may end up great!

Five Tips For



In my team there was 3 of us, Ku'umomi Thompson, Keegan Kessler and I. This is one of the first projects we did, and it was called "Five Tips for How to Play Volleyball". We chose this topic because one of our team members Keegan Kessler was very passionate and good at volleyball. So we thought it would be the most effective topic for our video. In this video we explained how you should hit the ball and where. We also explained why teamwork is good and what you should do when you're working with a team.

To make our video better, we could have thought out the shots better to make the shot clear. We could have also kept the camera from shaking by tightening the tripod. In our video there was a lot of camera movement, which in our video it's not a good thing. I also think we could have changed the color of the text over our video, or change the placement because you cant see clearly what it says in some shots because the background is the same color as the text. Although we could have done better, I think our video was good for our first video.
