Looks good to me! I like the music choice. Don't forget to add where the music came from in the credits. I don't have any idea about how to add the graph except maybe a screen capture? Frank would a better help. Love the movie and the message!

I think your students learned a lot when making their film (about the food they eat). A great topic for teens. They might want to make the "Sometimes Not" bigger. It gets a little lost. I agree that if we could see the graph up close and have a chance to read it, it would make a bigger impression. Nice job.

Great job, Gayle! I like the music, and it seems like the kids did some solid research and learned a lot. If you don't get hold of Frank, I'd be happy to help you export the graph from Pages and import it into iMovie.

Great subject matter. I liked the specific factual content (...grams of fat...). Your kids were well prepared with their roles and it definitely tells a story. The graph could be exported as a PDF (just like the storyboard was), and imported into iMovie. There, you might try a Ken Burns effect where it starts as small as possible centered on the laptop screen and ends with a full screen view (so it looks like it zooms up). Add a cross dissolve at the front to gradually appear as it zooms up. Let me know if you need more.

Great audio and research! Showing graph bigger is definitely a good idea. Possibly put some of facts as titles over the picture.

NIce job! Some of the audio seemed a little louder and clearer than other clips. I know it is really hard to film outside with the sound. Good information!

I like the music. The student in the hood should look up. The narrator speaks a bit quickly on Gatorade & Snack - a graphic title would help emphasize your point. Computer Bar Graph maybe a close up??? Well made.
