Entry Title:
Day 17
Project Description:
Last spring, my Poppop underwent cancer treatment. My extended family and close family friends each picked a day to make a small video or picture of the day of treatment, for encouragement. My day was Day 17. I came up with the idea of drawing out a 7 and being the 1. For the video, I took a time-lapse of me making the 7 and combined it with the finished photo and slowed down and sped up certain parts, putting it to timed music. I used iMovie to create the video.
