Reflection

So far I have some pictures, a narrative, and an idea in mind. I am doing mine on learning how to play the guitar, so I found a bunch of images relating to that. My next step was to decide how to put it all together. I was not sure where to even start with that. I knew that I could throw some images into moviemaker, but that would not be the best way to go about doing it. I then realized that I needed to write a narrative to help with the process. As I was writing, a lot of different ideas came to mind...all of a sudden I had images I knew I was going to ask my parents back home to send me and where they were going to correspond to my narrative. I found that writing the narrative first was the best way, for me, to get started on this process and get something accomplished. My next difficulty is becoming friendly with the technical aspect of moviemaker, and once I get that done I will be on my way.

It sounds like you and I are in similar places with our digital documents. I started placing things in movie maker and then realized that I really do not know what I am doing because I need the narrative in order to see how long the pictures should last for. So, I guess I have to go back to square one and write my narrative.
