Mythbusters awards qualifications


I think that we deserve the title of Most entertaining. I would say we deserve all of them, but that is more work that I don't feel like doing. Despite how it seemed it would turn out, Zac, Will, and Danny did quite well with the editing, leading to a hilarious final result. The video was well made, as well as it was the one with biggest words use properly. I feel that our video meets most if not all of the criteria, while still completing all the goals set in place.

Why We Deserve The Entertaining and Unique Awards

I think we deserve the most entertaining award because our video is rediculously funny. Our theme song is very whimsical. The bloopers are hilarious. Our video is VERY awkward. By the criteria given to us we are the definition of the entertaining award.

I think we deserve the most unique award because our video has a very unique topic. Our logo is creative. Our theme song is original.

One With Biggest Words Use Properly

I believe our video most deserves the "Most Entertaining Award" because of several reasons. First of all, we are funny. Second of all we are one with use biggest words properly. Lastly we used our humor effectively without taking away from the content and actual science of the video. We worked hard on our video and I think Zac deserves a special written affirmation because he went above and beyond what was expected of him and made the video flow seamlessly.

THIS IS A POST: :P

I think we should get the award for the most entertaining video. As for the reasons, well, I want to spoil the video. :D

Award


After watching our Mythbuster’s video I think that our class deserves the Most Entertaining award. My reasoning for this is that we have been the only class as of yet to make Cheryl laugh so much due to our video. We had a catchy title, introduction, and logo, which further add to my reasoning. Our video also included a bloopers real, which also added to the entertainment value. Lastly, we had Jon in our video, who added his comments in a very awkward yet entertaining way.

Homework Thursday 5/2 (due FRIDAY 5/3)

This is for EVERYONE whether or not you were on camera today:

Take a look at the data tables and also recall what happened during the plant experiment.
PUBLISH a blog post (as a comment to this post) regarding what you think happened for each experiment (recall that data as well as what happened with the plants) and decide - do you think biofeedback is something that can be scientifically relied on? Why? Why not? Be prepared to discuss this on camera (and for those not video editing, write about it in a lab report).
