All About Me Project

My inspiration for this project was that I wanted to share three hobbies of mine that I really love and enjoy.  My favorite thing to do is compete in marathons and triathlons; I have been swimming, biking, and running for almost five years.  I also love to travel.  I had the opportunity to go to Guatemala last summer and it was an amazing experience.  I really want to travel to more countries in the future.  I am also an avid reader; I could spend hours getting lost in a book.  I included these hobbies because they represent a part of who I am.

The biggest problem that I got stuck on with this project was the timing of the words with the slides they went with.  First, my words were coming to fast and then to slow.  I had to play around with it and try different settings until I got it just right.  It was really just using trial and error until it worked the way I wanted it to.

I am most proud of the way everything flowed together in the final project.  Getting the words, slides, and music all in sync was challenging, but I'm happy with how it turned out.
