Mission 1 Creativity gifs

Working together on our project getting all the hands we can to get it done. It's tough at times to meet up so we can work on our project but we are getting there slowly.We have started to research the history of gifs and looked at some popular gifs.We also have checked out a few apps on our phone
and websites to create gifs ourselves which we can then use in the presentation.

So we have started to work on our first project and we have already decided on the layout of our blog.We have the basic steps all done after just one meeting.we hope we will be able to meet up a lot because it's much better to get things done when we have a meeting rather than texting or calling. We have starting to do some of our own research and we are planning on then getting all the information we found together and decided on what goes where as a group.

We decided to start off with the powerpoint first so we should have a guideline of what to research and what we have left to do. We have discussed a few ideas together about the presentation and what each of us wants to add to the powerpoint. We are finding a lot of information which is very detailed which makes it slightly difficult because we aren't sure what to focus on more and what we should involved in the powerpoint. Apart from that we are moving forward everyday and have met up a few times outside of college in a local cafe where we go through what we have gathered during the week.

So far as a group we are working well. We are meeting up when ever we can and communicate on social media such as Slack and Messenger. We would discuss every idea together before making a decision. Since we all live far away from each other most of the communication is done through social media. we are trying to do video call and send pictures of any work we have researched or done. We have shared the powerpoint amongst ourselves so the we all have access to edit it and discuss any changes that must happen. This means we waste a lot of time as  it's hard to communicate fast when we are texting or calling through social media. This makes it harder at times and means we are moving too slow with the work.

It's hard since this is our first project we don't know what to expect and how we should present it correctly.We are getting stuck at times because we aren't sure how much into details we have to go in and whether we will present it right. We are constantly going through the powerpoint, adding or changing bits to improve it.In order to get some inspiration we are watching different gifs online and practicing our own ones. We have decided to do our gifs on the theme of "comedy" after doing the research. We agreed that if we stick to the theme it will make us more focused on what has to be done and how to go about doing it. I find the comedy gifs the most interesting to watch and I think that they are used the most. unlike gifs that have the theme of sadness or anger the happy and funny gifs are more popular and the most familiar.

We are slowly getting there and I hope we get in all done in time.
