Making the World a Better Place

In class 4 four people were chosen to enter a competition: Joya, Amelia, Jonathan and Calum. This was sponsered by "apple" the topic was based around "Making the world a better place". We Blakedown were also chosen to host the competition. What we had to do was make a video. We were lent 1 apple mac and some iBooks from apple. We had three other schools come to us: Bayton, Wolverly and Upper Arley. We planned our video really well and were ahead of the other schools. We decided to call our video "Small act Big impact". We acted our scenes well too. What we had to face now was the editing stage this was crucial and we didn't do very well. We were given another half day to finish it and finally we got our heads down and got on with it. Then we were invited to the Digital awards ceromony. We put together a presentation and showed our video and everybody thought it was really good.
