ReplyDeleteI think it was a good idea how you used the whiteboard to post little notes up, so that we could see and hear at the same time. Most groups had words with their graphics, but this groups' was simple, and was easy to follow. Also the narrator spoke at just the right speed, which made it even easier to understand.

easy to listen to, easy to understand, and easy to visually see. I thought that the video is really nicely made; both technically and educationally. Although there were alot of information in the video, because it was clear and simply said, it was really easy to understand. I liked how they used the whiteboard as their background and used magnets to move their props along with their talkings.

Nice voice quality, visuals, and information! The white board idea was actaully very creative, giving us a better and easier idea on General Ford. I actually didnt really know anything on Ford and the informaiton given was new to me. It usually takes time for me to understand what is going on (I usually have to see or listen to it over and over)but this time the back board and the visuals really helped and I could understand it easily.
ReplyDeleteIt was interesting how the proclamation of 4311 increased the number of crimes and also made people loose trust towards General Ford, resulting in Ford`s presidency to not really stand up.
I liked how this video was very simple because it made it easy to grasp the important facts. I thought it was a very good idea to stick the key words on the white board, and change them according to the topic. It made it easier to remember the information.

Mai.H, Risa-
The introduction was very clear supported with the texts on the board. I liked how you spoke with a nice pace, so that I can actually understand what you guys were saying. Very informative, good job!
The video started with a good introduction. The notes on the whiteboard helped me follow along the presentation. The information that the group shared are very clear and understandable. The video ended with a strong conclusion. Overall, great job!

The points of info placed on the board in tandem with what was being presented helped me follow what went on during Ford's presidency, both economically and politically. The social aspects of Ford's presidency weren't something I was able to follow well though.
ReplyDeleteThe style of this video was very smart and efficiently done. It helped sort all the information in my head, especially the part about the economic issues during Ford's presidency. The drawings of Nixon and Ford resembled the figures very much, wow! Sadly the last part was cut off (technical difficulties D:) but I understood what you wanted to say, and I thought this was very neatly done.

ReplyDeleteWith only two people, it would have been quite hard to research all those quite big amount of information! This presentation is a typical presentation which is very neat. There is no jokes or acting scene but I think it is rather strong part of this video. The trasition from one scene to the other is very quick and it is full of good information. I liked it!
This video was really easy to understand! There was lots of interesting facts about Gerald Ford, and I was able to learn lots of thing about him!
ReplyDeleteI also liked the idea of using white board. This was really original idea!!!
Although there were some technical problems, I really enjoyed watching this video.
With only two people, I think you put lots of time on researching!!!
Nice job :D

ReplyDeleteThe introduction was good, it helped the viewers understand whats your topic. I think the idea of using pictures and words to explame your ideas and information. Well done!

this presentation was alright, It was good in information as well as flow. I did like the idea but it could be improved. Still nice and very simple. Clean, i liked your conclusion, it was nice to know about ford. Changed my point of view.

ReplyDeleteThis presentation is well done, It was very unique to present by whiteoboard and narration. I have learned lot of information about Gerald ford and this presentation was very easy to understand.
I loved the format of this video which resembeld comics. Nice use of whiteboard and magnets; it really helped understanding and provided nice and humorous visuals.
ReplyDeleteI had never really known about Ford before and thus the video helped me alot to understand his presidency. I liked clear conclusion which evaluated Ford as nor bad nor good.
I really liked the visuals in your video, such as where Risa talks while moving the cartoon cut-outs as visuals that follow what shes saying. It made it very easy to understand her points. I learned a lot about Ford from this video though your precise and clean as well as unbiased layout of information. Well done.

Creative idea of using whiteboard as the background. Magnet notes helped me follow the topic visually and with audio. I liked it how the group were clear and simple. Nice job with missing one of your member.

Your idea for this topic was very well thought out. It was good to put the main words on the whiteboard because it was way easier for me to understand. Very funny visuals, I appreciated that part of the presentation very well, especially because I had no information on Gerald Ford previously.

It was nice to have a visual help for the audience to understand the information. The presentation was clear, informative and well-organized. Now I know many things about Ford that I did not know before.

It was very interesting that they used whiteboard with stick the key words on it. It was very clear. Somehow I could understand the informations very easily, because they put the main points on the white board. Well done
ReplyDeleteAlthough somewhat bland in retrospect to the other movies filmed in the entertainment field, this was perhaps the most clearly informative movies of them all.
ReplyDeleteThe white board technique and calm reading made understanding this video easy.

ReplyDeleteReally creative movie with their interesting idea of using whiteboard to show details. With their details what was shown helped me to understand better topic of the movie and history of US during presidency of Ford. They talked really clear and it was easy to understand the contest. It was nice movie and they had also worked on their bibliography.
I though using the white board and sticking the words on the board was very creative. It made the information they were telling really easy to understand and it also was good visually. Everything was simple and was not complicated or busy. The video was good.
ReplyDeleteFord: The chart on the whiteboard made it easy to follow what you were saying. It looks like Ford did not do much except stuff to the economy.
ReplyDeleteGood job. It was done very well overall, but I also thought that Risa's introduction was very clear and easy to understand. Starting off with a great introduction, you went on to giving detailed information on Ford's policies. The use of props made your presentation even better.
ReplyDeleteNice job!
ReplyDeleteI liked how your video was very easy to listen to, in addition of being highly easy to understand due to the words and numbers posted on the white board.
I agree with Maya that Risa made a very clear introduction which helped me because I always thought Ford was the car guy...
There was lots of information, which comes to show that you put in a lot of time researching.
Good job~
You definitely utilized what you had to make a successful video with just two group members. Using magnets with pictures and important terms on the white board was a good idea since it was both entertaining and informative. The video was structurally organized with Risa introducing us Gerald Ford and his basic info and going on to explaining the most important domestic and foreign policies such as operation baby lift from vietnam and the helenski accord. Mai clearly explained the social and economical atmosphere during Ford's presidency and the pictures helped me a lot in keeping up with all the info. Mai closing the presentation was very nice since we got to see both the members in the video and not just the pictures and texts.
ReplyDeleteThe fact that he was appointed to be the president of U.S.A is interesting. I like the use of little paper tags for explaining the information. It made the information a lot more easier to understand and easy to get the idea of the situation. However, it will be better if we can see people’s faces who is reporting. I believe there is no conflict in combining the paper tags and showing faces.
ReplyDeleteYou got a great main points, has a great start. The information was so much fun to understand and fantastic to have the information.

Aww I wanted to watch til the end! Why technology? Whyyy??
What lacked in entertainment in this video was made up for by the organization and easy-to-understand presentation. Your voices are very clear, and the pictures on the board made the information you presented stick both visually and audio...ly. Great flow and enunciation!
This video was really interesting to understand with the visuals on the white board. The information was very well organized. The general flow and the transitions were very smooth. I was impressed by your work because I know it must've been hard to do it with just the two of you. Your voices were very clear. One new thing I learned about Gerald Ford was that he helped reduce the inflation significantly! By all means good job!
ReplyDeleteThe transition from one scene to another was swift and I helped the audience to follow the video without disturbance. The information presented were solid and neatly explained. Well DONE!!!
