Throughout the school year of Honors English, I think there are many different memorable assignments, but one of the most memorable of all was an extra credit assignment for Animal Farm. Armed with a camera and a thin jacket, my friend and I ventured out to many different farms seeking animals to point the lens at. First was a Christmas tree farm with goats, birds, and horses. There was also a lone pig that was black, but it wasn't very corporative, so we decided to see if we could find another one elsewhere. The next farm was a private farm. This one had horses, dogs, and the cutest baby kittens in the whole wide world. We did most of the filming here, but it was also freezing.
The final product was something that I was really satisfied with. A jumble of video clips that were paired with a song (our clever way of disguising giggles and screams in the background). It was the first real movie that we edited and it took a long time to figure out the tools and special features, but in the end everything worked out and as a reward we got extra credit, so it was worth it.
