Pharaoh iMovie



In Humanities, we had to make an iMovie about one of Egypt's pharaohs. My partner and I chose the pharaoh Ramses II and we had to give an Intro, his accomplishments and his architectural achievements. At first I didn't think that we were going to finish on time, but we managed to finish minutes before we presented. One thing I thought that worked really well was the voice over. We both (mostly me) recorded over all the pictures we found on iMovie and it turned out better than i would have expected. There wasn't a lot of background noise to ruin the recording and we spoke REALLY loud, practically shouting, but not enough to make it unclear. Something that didn't go really well was how we spent our time because, like I said above,

For the intro, I thought my partner and I did pretty good, we had bits of information about Ramses II that were right and the correct time he ruled (according to the rubric). For the pharaohs accomplishments, I thought we could do better because half of the things there didn't really contribute to Egypt. Mostly important things that happened over his life. The architectural achievements were the best out of the 3 (at least I think so) we talked about his temple built for his deceased wife and I thought we did a good job.

We then had to critic on someone else's iMovie. We both chose Harjot's and Samuel's one about King Tut. Firstly, they did a really good job of speaking loudly, you can hear them really clearly and can easily comprehend them. Their information was good as well. It explained a lot about the pharaoh and it made sense. Sometimes they would put in a few EPIC VOICES to have humor but one thing that I would change would be how the EPIC VOICES are timed because it kind of overlapped with the main voice over. All in all, I would give it a 9/10
