2 Days Until Presentation

Almost done!! Right now I'm just constructing my poster board and my video which will be looping while I'm presenting. I still have a lot of work to physically do but I have it all mapped out in my mind so hopefully all will go well! :) My video has 3 girls all doing a double down which I will then show the physics showing the force it takes to do this move on the poster board along with the physics concepts of F=MA and others! lalalalaaa almost done yeee!

Last 20% A day!

Its the final week in our 20% project prep that will be done in class. It's interesting coming from being a dancer and having a dancers background to do this project because I get to see how much force I'm truly putting into my dancing and all the hard work that dancers really put on the floor. On my poster I'm also going to do a bio section for each 3 girls to show how experienced in dance they are and give a background on them. This will add a more personal aspect to my project so the audience will gain a better understanding of why I chose this topic :)

coming to the end

It's almost presentation time and I'm working on my poster board and a powerpoint (or possibly just a looping video). My powerpoint will include more of the visual aspects to the project and the poster tri-fold board will show the data and comparison aspect. I want to coordinate them together so that they are in unison. Ex: have a slide on my ppt that says data and comparisons are shown on the poster board or the other way around like look to the video to see what these jumps look like!

#7

This week I have scheduled a time to work with my friends from dance. I have decided to scrap the idea of a x/y 2D jump because there is a lot of work that I would have to learn and do. I'm making a table of the masses of the 3 girls, height's of their jumps and the time for their jumps as well. I'm starting to understand what I'm working on a little bit more and more every week :)
