Music Evaluation
What Has Been Your Favourite Thing You Have Learnt This Year?
Probably learning new songs on the piano.
What Have You Found Most Challenging This Year?
Actually having the stomach to get up and perform in front of the class.
Are You Taking Music Next Year? If No, Which Passions Are You Following Next Year? If Yes, What Would You Like To Learn Next Year?
No, I'm not taking music next year, in fact, I'm going to take metal and art next year. I decided this because I love being very artistic and creative so I decided metal and art were right for me. Except I will still be playing instruments in my own time as a hobby.
So for science, I am going to be researching more about the Andromeda and Milky Way collision that is said to happen in 4.5 billion years. Basically, they are two different galaxies that are said to collide with each other and don't worry it is said that the sun will be okay and some of our planets too.

Paragraphs...
The Milky Way, the galaxy our home planet 'Earth' is kept safe and sound in its orbit around the sun. Our Milky Way has been around for 13.51 billion years and in counting. This place with our solar system has over 200 billion stars and is known to have a lot more dust and gas to make way more. "It's almost like we're sailing through the galaxy sideways" - Merav Opher. The Milky Way is around about 3 million light-years away from the Andromeda galaxy, so we are safe.
Now for Andromeda, now this galaxy is aged at 10.01 billion years and has about 1 trillion stars. Andromeda is the closet large galaxy to the Milky Way and has an apparent magnitude of 3.4. It is quite scary that Andromeda and The Milky Way will collide, in fact, Andromeda is approaching the Milky Way at approximately 100 to 140 kilometers per second. A fact about Andromeda is that it has at least one supermassive black hole hidden at the core of the galaxy.
These two galaxies are going to be meeting each other in 4.5 billion years. While Andromeda contains 1 trillion stars and the Milky Way contains 300 billion but the chance of even two stars colliding is very slim due to the huge distances between the stars. Anyways this collision has been confirmed and honestly is bound to happen, let's just hope it doesn't cause too much effect.

Today we had to get put in groups, my groups cool. We are deciding to do a basketball-themed film in 30-35 seconds. What we did today was plan out our plot, create drawings and decide what camera shots we were going to use. This is will be a fun project and hope our idea comes out well.
14/11/2019

With this Wednesday today the group will hopefully get more shots and some more footage for the film. After we will put it all together tomorrow if we have English and see where we are at. We would like this to be the last day of filming so we can start creating and hopefully get more shots if needed. Also we would like to complete it a little early so we can not worry about time limit.
Basically we filmed some more shots and now we are ready to review our film and make it up tomorrow hopefully and maybe get more shots tomorrow.

21/11/2019
Well we have already put the film together and it's 24 seconds long, so we might have to film some extra stuff to make it a full 30 seconds.
Now we are going to edit next and then we will review it from then.

22/11/2019
So we have already finished editing and now we have to just get it from my phone and onto my drive.
Basically, what I said before we just need to get it uploaded.
