 Please use constructive criticism in the following responses.  This is a good way for me to get feedback of what my students like or think could be improved for project selection for next year.

Please describe to me what you favorite project was and why?  What was your least favorite project and why?  Is there a project/theme that you would have liked to learn about or create/if so what is it?
My favorite project was the video montage. this was my favorite because i got to pick what theme i would like to go with (friends, family, senior pictures etc.). I did not have a least favorite project cause i really enjoy editing. maybe another fun project would be for kids to creat there own short movie.
