Digital Story 3

This is digital story three. In this video we had to choose a current event and write the story from some other persons perspective. basically we had to make believe a character who was actually there when the event happened. I chose to make the story on ferry crash. i hop you guys like the video and tell me to what i should improve for further videos.

Digital story 3 narrative

          It was a bright saturday morning, I was very excited to go to the city as it is a big part of New York. I got up took a shower and quickly ran out of the house to get to the ferry. Now i was on the bus and shockingly i was falling asleep. I was bored out of my mind so i took out my ipod and i started listening to random songs. Finally it was time to get off the bus. The one thing that i hate the most is getting late and missing the bus and the ferry,and so the ferry was about to leave and the door was about to close, but amazingly i made it to the ferry. On the ferry i was sitting at the outer part so i can enjoy the view of the ocean. Everything was going smoothly until the ferry started to move in a very unusual way. this happened around 3 o clock, the ferry started to make weird noises, people inside started to panic  and everyone started yelling wondering what is wrong with the ferry today. as i was sitting outside the movement of the ferry was not normal and instead of going straight it was going to the left towards this wooden pillar. suddenly it crashed into the pillar and people at the front got injured very badly. thank god i was sitting at the back where i didn't get a single scratch on me. finally the helicopters arrived, people came to help, and i went home as soon as i got off the ferry. I  turned on my tv to watch the news and i saw that thousands of people died, and of them was my friend who i was not able to see for a long time.

Future new contest video

Reflection: This video is different then what we did before. This time the story is based on the genocide in Darfur. In my video you will see images and the conditions of people in Darfur right now. The reason why I chose this topic was to show people that what is going over there is wrong and mostly to make them aware of the event. If you feel there was something missing in my story or overall i didn't do a good job with it let me know so i can fix it, also i would encourage you to help them.
