Me, myself and I project

This video is all about me. It was quite annoying that I had go through thousands of pictures and get the most suitable one. I have made this video using iMovie, however, as I have never used them before, I had few troubles trying to add the music and adding the pictures to the movie. My video is the link below. I found many pictures that I don't even remember that it happened. I quite liked the project actually because as I was looking through the pictures, my sister who is currently 2 years old, came up to me and said it's her pointing at the picture of me when it was the first day of kindergarten. I am really sad that this is probably the last music project we are going to be having in this rotation, but at the same time, I am excited about what we are going to do in music in Gr. 8!

Cat's theme edited using mixcraft

This is my video for cat's theme. 
this video is edited using mixcraft. 

For this theme I have looked at the notes for the piano and I have learnt this theme by myself. As I had no one or it may be just that I didn't know, I didn't have anyone to teach me and I also thought this is a good chance for me to understand the notes and try playing them in a way that I thought. Also, my difficulty for this project was that when I practiced, I have managed to play well and I was successful, however, as I started to record, my fingers got mixed up and I couldn't play well. Then I asked my teacher and she said "record while you are practicing" so then I thought that I should look at the notes even while I am recording because that is the way I practiced my cat's theme.  I would like to try to use this way because I usually get scared when I am recording or playing/saying something in front of a lot of people.
