today our meeting was OH SO successful. We designated the jobs and figured out what needed to be done. Tonight i will FOR SURE finish the script to our video and start finding/drawing pictures that are needed for the exciting film on Roman Art. Tomorrow we plan to start filming, even if Liz isnt there :(. We will just film her when we get back, then working on recording our voices.

__DECEMBER 2__** WE FINISHED OUR LOVELY FILMING PART :) it went very well at my house, unfortunatly pushing the date back to Monday, but it wasn't so bad. We started around 1:30 and didn't finish until 4:30ish 5. It was a very....................long process. We recorded our actual **voices** with Audacity today, it went very smoothly (even decided to add some funny bloopers at the end of the video). Last period, Amanda and i were putting the voices with the movie, RAN INTO SOME DIFFICULTY, but all was resolved thanks to Mrs. Carter-Morgan. YAY. Tonight i have to edit the video for the official publication and little details to make it b-e-a-utiful.

we're practically done!!! Just last minute fixers, and we found out that Liz presents Monday and Amanda and i present Tuesday...so thats grrrreat. Im going to work on the final touches of our sculpture game. Everyone should be fixing up their workspaces, ANNOTATED bibliography, and last minute jobs themselves. We had a meeting 8th period to discuss this :)
