- tell your step by step process and timeline
- First off when i starting thinking about doing something as crazy as a movie script or TV show, i knew i'd need a convincing background for the setting and characters. Each and every character i'm creating i'm putting all the love and development into them to try to make them as lovable or hated as i can. The second step was to make sure i had an idea on how much the whole deal is going to cost. Movie's are very expensive and to make a good one, you need plans on how to spend your money. The third step is what we're in now and it's finalizing everything and giving it the green light. Step four is to make a good and convincing trailer with what we have and put in on Kickstarter.com. This is to help reach our goal and possible make our money to make this Movie better than what we could have imagined. Step five is to make the movie. Its all planed out, the only thing i need now is cooperation and time. Who knows; maybe i can make it somewhere in the world with something of my own creation.

- What progress have i made in the last month on your Genius Hour Project?
so far i have created a new world for myself for a great setup in the movie script i have been working on. I'm still trying to figure out the main story line for everything to fit together.
- What steps do you plan to take in the next 3 weeks to further your progress on your project? i plan on getting all the costumes together and get the actors ready for their parts to make a good high quality trailer. it'll feature most of the movie plot and explain the movie idea and will be getting the anticipation that i hope it gets.

-What did you learn from persuing the blogs of other students participating in Genius Hour/20time.
The things I have learned from persuing blogs is the little ideas that I have for a possible next genius hour, like doing something i've been passionate about longer then the building things for a living. i was thinging about possibly attempting on making my own T.V. show script. me and my friends have made one movie for our english 11 class last year and loved everything about it. We have been trying to do it again but with no time. My plan is to atleast make a script and maybe when me and my friends have time we could start it off again. i already have a great idea and now all I need to do is write it down.

The presentation on TED talks was very inspiring. it showed how simple it was to change the worlds way of teaching its students. I thought that the way he talked about how the schools teach all the required things and don't let the kids who want to learn more about something else, learn about those subjects. For example, I personally feel that i could do with a little less english classes in my time spent in highschool. I am currently going to be pursing the welding bussness. To have four years of English is only getting in the way of me takign a class the requires two hours. I think that if we are going to educate kids to be what they want to be then let them take the classes that they need and want to take to get where they want to go.

Sir Ken Robinson's ideas about how to change the way kids look at school are in my opinion are great. If you give a kid what he/she wants to learn about then they will learn with a big smile on their face. Robinson's ideas inspired me be work harder to get where i want to go, and with the help of Genius Hour i feel that it can make it a whole lot more fun. Genius Hour is a great start for the basic idea of trying to get kids doing what they want to do to help themselfes and others. If the school had a class that focused on a thing like Genius hour, kids would have a better time in school and learn more about what they want to do when they're older and out in the world.

- What has been your most helpful resource in yout Genius hour project.
The most help tool or resorce that I have been using for this project is the use of the school classes that im currently taking to help get the projects done. without the woods room I don't think i'd be able to do the things that i'm doing, mostly because I don't have a lot of them at home. As for welding my dad has a welder that i've been using sometimes to maybe fix something that needs it.
