With Lucy Mogan and Wesley Fink
Storyboard/Script |
ProcessWe began this project by planning out our video. We made a script and storyboard to guide us while filming the video. After planning we started to film the the outside scenes. Once those were done, we moved on to the inside scenes, which we did on the white board. Once all of the scenes were shot, we did the voiceovers for the scenes in which we needed them. Throughout this process, we changed both the storyboard and script when we felt it was necessary. With everything filmed, we began to edit. There were a few scenes that were below our standards so we redid them completely. We also cut some scenes that were unnecessary. We added some finishing touches and our video was complete.
ReflectionOverall my group and I did really well on this project. With that being said there were some things that I could have done better. For instance, I was especially difficult with Wesley, trying to teach him about soccer. I should have been much more patient with him. Also, I should have been more of a leader throughout the making of this video. I was afraid to give suggestions or offer ideas. One good takeaway was that I learned to work with people who are less experienced in something than I am. I feel like I gained a bit of understanding. Also, I got better at planning a project and executing the plan. I gained a lot of planning and time management skills throughout making this video.

Force of Impact: Force of impact is the force that one object has on another object when they meet. We found force of impact of when I kicked the soccer ball. We used the equation mv=Ft where m is mass, v is velocity, F is force, and t is time. In this project we had already figured out the mass of the ball, the resulting velocity of the ball, and the time of impact, so we could solve for the force. The standard unit for Force of Impact is Newtons (N).
Vertical Velocity: Vertical velocity is the vertical vector of an objects total velocity, or speed in a certain direction. The equation for vertical velocity is V(vertical)=Agt, where Ag is acceleration due to gravity and t is time. We found this by timing how long the ball took to reach its vertical peak which was 0.6 seconds. We then multiplied 0.6 by 10, or acceleration due to gravity, which gave us the vertical velocity of 6 meters per second (m/s).
Horizontal Velocity: Horizontal velocity is the horizontal vector of an objects total velocity, or speed in a certain direction. The equation for horizontal velocity is V(horizontal)=d(horizontal)/t where d(horizontal) is the horizontal distance the ball travels and t is time. In our project, we measured the distance the ball traveled until it reached its vertical peak, which is 9 meters. Then we timed how long it takes for the ball to reach its vertical peak, which was 0.6 seconds. Then we divided the 0.6 from 9 and got the horizontal velocity of 14.3 meters per second. (m/s)
Total Velocity: The total velocity takes into account the horizontal and vertical components put into Pythagorean Theorem (a^2+b^2=c^2). We set up a triangle and used the horizontal and vertical velocities to find the hypotenuse. We found that 14.3^2 is 204.5 and 6^2 is 36. We added up these numbers to get 240.5, which is the hypotenuse squared. We then took the square root of 240.5 to find the total velocity which is 15.5 meters per second (m/s)
Angle of Release: The angle of release of something is the angle at which the object initially travels. We found the angle of release by using the velocities to make a right triangle. Next we used the trigonometric function tangent cosine which equals the opposite side of the angle you are calculating divided by the side adjacent to the relevant angle. In our situation, we did 6/14.3 and used the tangent function in a calculator to find the angle of release of 23 degrees.
