Major Project Ideas

The topic of my project is fashion or me & my best friend, i would be interviewing her or other people in order to get ideas about what they think about fashion or my best friend about what she thinks about our friendship. I'll be taking pictures of people showing off their different styles they have or have pictures of me & my best friend being us. The information i would research would be fashion about the latest styles or me & my best friend
The type of project i would make would be making an animoto; the type of of service i will use is Animoto. I think this is the best service to use in order to make my project because i will be able to set up all my pictures the way i want & make it look nice. I will capture this content most likely in school or out of school as well.. I will transfer all my images, audio, & text to the computer whenever i can in order for me to get started on this project as soon as possible.
