Entry 12- 20/5/11

Today, two of our team mates were missing and only me and Rufayda were there to do the justification. At first, I was waiting for Rufayda to finish what she was doing. Then we started with our justification. In our justification we chose what we wanted to do and because we didn't finish because of lack of time, Rufayda finished it at breaktime that day. I think that our justification is appropriate and nice.

Entry 11- 19/5/11

Today, I finished my design. I described the rest of the two frames, scene 4 and credits. I described both of them, and then for credits I wrote all the things that had to be involved, e.g. producer, etc. Then I wrote the meanings. I had finished my design and it was fine, I didn't like it but it was OK. Tomorrow our group had to chose a design and justify why.

Entry 10- 18/5/11

Today, in class I got a chance to check my plan. I saw that the whole storyline was already there. Then I heard Ms. Risper say that we couldn't draw, we had to write a description of what was supposed to be there. That is what I did in the frames and then instead of writing the description in the description section, I wrote the meaning and the purpose of it. I only managed to do three scenes. Then it was time for the next class. I learnt that you don't have to draw every single thing, some time, even for storyboards, you can describe. This lesson was OK.

Entry 9- 17/5/11

Today, I had to start my design at home. I started by drawing the frames and the areas in which I could write in. Then I did only the first frame for title. I got a nice title- The Beginning of the End. this means that wen the girl comes to the school it is as if she has been born, and when she is being mocked, she is dying, it is the end for her. I used a lot of color as I imagined how it would look. Then I did a nice fancy design to make it look appealing. But I only did the title because my final plan was on the students file and I didn't know what scene was supposed to be shown. So I only did that and then left it for class.

Entry 8- 5/5/11

Today I finished my reasearch. I asked some of my group mates to send me links from where i could do my work and I found a few links myself. I got all the information altogether. Some og the things weren't even relevant, but I thought that it might help in the understandng if I do put it, so I included it in the investigation. I learnt a lot from the information. I learnt about the portugese and what mombasa's real arabic name is. It is quite interesting knowing about these things.

Entry 7- 4/5/11

Today, we had to continue with our criterion A. I found out that my design specification was not correct, so I did it agin. This is what I did in the whole class. I learnt how to write a good design specification, and I think it was good.
