Music Genome

  1. A) Identify your chosen musical genre & B) say why you chose it.
  2. Describe how you went about finding your songs and information. 
  3. What different kinds of technology did you use to compile your project? [Web tools, Mac tools, etc...]
  4. What are you good at...what went well for you in this project?
  5. With what did you struggle on this project...what was difficult for you?
  6. Did you decide to use still slides? Why or why not?  [If not, how did you convey your information?
  7. For what other classes, situations, uses could this type of project be adapted? 
  8. How did your project use the transformative property of borrowed images, music, and information to comply with the Copyright Law of 1976? [...not just that you cited the information, etc., but how did you transform the music, information, images, etc.]
  9. Would you do another project like this on your own? Why? Why not?
I picked Jazz because I thought there were such great songs and other characteristics that were good and I wanted to learn about Jazz.
I searched Google for all information on jazz and other main songs. 
I used GarageBand, iMovie, PowerPoint, and Firefox to completely compile all of my information. I was the best at using iMovie and PowerPoint because of all of the previous projects. The hardest was transferring the GarageBand songs to the iMovie. I used still slides because I thought it was easier to show animations with building in instead. I could use this to convey information through a PowerPoint and make it look better. I used a Works Cited page to show all of the images, songs, and movies that I ended up using. Yes, it is interesting to see the different types of projects you can make out of PowerPoint and iMovie.
