What are you doing for Thanksgiving? Do you have any traditions? Go in to detail about your plans for the 5 day weekend.

This Thanksgiving I'm just having dinner with my family that live here. We usually switch off between just having it here and having it here but also having it at my mom's parents in Missouri. This year, though, my mom's high school made the Missouri State Championship so we are going to St. Louis to watch them play on Friday.

Reflecting on the comments and grade of your stop-motion animation... what you would do differently if you had to do it all over again? Would you manage your time better? Find better lighting for your photos? Come up with a better idea? Explain what you would change about your video.

If I could do anything differently, I would try to find better lighting and try to keep the camera more steady and focused. Some people said that my video had too much going on or it was too busy so I would try to cut out some details that aren't needed to make the video clearer. I would probably come up with a different idea and not wait until the last couple days to take the pictures. I would also try to keep the camera in the same place because my camera angles moved a lot throughout the video.

Tell me about your experience with taking your stop-motion photos. What problems did you run in to? What did you find difficult about the process? What would you go back and change about HOW you took the photos? Explain yourself.

Parts of it were difficult because I had to figure out how I was going to do certain things, like moving objects across gaps. I did find it hard to keep the camera steady. If i could go back and change it, I would probably change to stay in the same spot while take pictures to make it look more like a video. It was fun I guess but it was complicated, like most everything is.

Tell me about your weekend.

On Saturday morning I went to my grandparents house to help them start moving into their new retirement home apartment thing. Then Saturday afternoon one of my friends came over and we hung out and then went to the Legends. We ate at Stix, which is like those Japanese chop em up places. It was good. After that we went back home and watched Bad Grandpa, the unrated cut, and then he slept over. On Sunday I went to church and watched football.

My idea is basically just making a meal and then eating it,. Its original and creative because it is making a quesadilla which I'm sure not very many people do at home that often. This will basically show getting the ingredients, putting the quesadilla together, moving the quesadilla over to the quesadilla cooker, cutting it, getting a drink, moving the drink and quesadilla over to the table, and then eating the quesadilla.

What is stop motion animation? If you don't know, look it up! Explain.

Stop motion animation is basically taking pictures of people or things in different positions and then putting the pictures together to make it look like the person or thing is moving. The person in charge makes little tiny adjustments to each thing for every frame. And I mean TINY adjustments like moving a persons arm up a centimeter.
