My section of the group’s video

So far this week, our group hasn’t had much communication with each other, and therefore we haven’t managed to edit the individual clips together into one video yet.

My part of the video is based on the positivity that eggs and chickens can have one people. I managed to break down into 50 seconds the way that chicken soup can bring a person comfort, and how raw eggs can help bodybuilders achieve their goals. Overall, the point I was trying to make in my video was that eggs and chickens provide positive feelings for people, and that is why they are the food of the people. I used my phone to record and upload the video, which consisted of my talking whilst showing some images to support my points on my computer screen to the camera. I edited the video by making it slightly shorter, brighter and less shaky later on y computer using the built in editor on Youtube. 

This week has shown me the importance of others in learning. Whilst learning can be a personal task, especially in independent learning, however having others around you to aid your learning can be a great help. Working in a group takes away some of the pressure that working alone can sometimes have. It also ensures that everyone in the group understands their role in the task, and that everyone should get a fair and equal amount of work to do. 

Overall, this week would have been better if there had been more communication in our group, however I think that as individuals in our group, we still managed to get the work done well. We just need to work out a way of bringing all our efforts together as one.
