1a.  I had Doo Wop Music.
1b. I choose that genre because I have never really heard any Doo Wop music, so I wanted to see what it was like.
2.  I went on the internet and searched Doo Wop music.  For my information I searched things like Doo Wop history, and the origins of Doo Wop.
3. I first used keynote to make my informational slides and then I exported them into iMovie.  I also used a transition on iMovie called Scrapbook.  For my music I found my songs on iTunes and then downloaded them through Zamzar.  I then used garageband to edit my music.
4. I was good at editing all of my music and and making my slides.
5. It was difficult to import my movie clip.  I had trouble with that.
6. I used still slides.  I thought it would be easier for people to read
7. This could be used for any of my other classes or any other projects.
8. I transformed my pictures and my music into my slides and it worked really well.  I cited everything for this project.
9. I really liked this project. It was fun to listen to the music and put it to my slides.  It was an enjoyable project.
