Reflection:

This project was completely different than other project the I had before, Because we did not have a project that we should make a video about 5-8 minutes. That project was interesting and it was a new thing for us to learn, However we had some issues with recording the video. The idea of the video was learning more about our culture and I think this is a perfect way to learn more. But I think the time was not enough for us to do a perfect video, Although the time of the video is too short however we should cut a lot of scenes from the video. I learn a lot of that video such as how to communicate with tourist and give them a good fell about us and our culture, At the same time we had some fun. Hope that we have another project like that one.
