Student:
Adelaide Dawkins, Gabriel Dawkins
Entry Title:
Airplane
Project Description:
Adelaide had a school project to make a paper airplane to go 60 ft. She struggled and had to bring it home to work on testing different paper airplanes. However she had to video each take incase she had one that went 60 ft. Enter younger brother Gabriel. He recorded testing videos for an hour + as well as after dinner. He joked that Adelaide could make a blooper for the project and this video was born. Gabriel did the recording (except for select few school taken videos), Adelaide was in them and spliced them together with Clips app. Gabriel liked Adelaide saying “Airplane” for no reason at the beginning of EVERY video, so we included the “Airplane” clips as well.
