NATHAN HERNANDEZ:
All right, day 4.

2
00:00:02,430 --> 00:00:03,888
Today, I'm doing
an audio recording

3
00:00:03,888 --> 00:00:05,500
to see what's the
difference when

4
00:00:05,500 --> 00:00:07,840
I'm talking versus in my video.

5
00:00:10,490 --> 00:00:13,182
So moving on-- day
4, story boarding.

6
00:00:13,182 --> 00:00:15,640
First off, I apologize to you
guys I seemed a bit out of it

7
00:00:15,640 --> 00:00:17,630
during class.

8
00:00:17,630 --> 00:00:19,200
When I made my
last reflection, I

9
00:00:19,200 --> 00:00:20,450
said I was going to go to bed.

10
00:00:20,450 --> 00:00:22,330
And then some things
happened that caused

11
00:00:22,330 --> 00:00:25,080
me to have a bit of a thing to
deal with that I couldn't go

12
00:00:25,080 --> 00:00:27,392
to bed until I got to a
point where I would have been

13
00:00:27,392 --> 00:00:29,350
sleeping through class
if I had tried to sleep,

14
00:00:29,350 --> 00:00:31,200
because I don't like getting up.

15
00:00:31,200 --> 00:00:32,720
Anyway, day 4.

16
00:00:32,720 --> 00:00:34,430
Story boarding was
really interesting.

17
00:00:34,430 --> 00:00:36,776
It's really made
me think about how

18
00:00:36,776 --> 00:00:38,150
I'm going to
present my material,

19
00:00:38,150 --> 00:00:42,010
not just in making sure
the content is interesting,

20
00:00:42,010 --> 00:00:44,120
but how to keep everything
visually engaging,

21
00:00:44,120 --> 00:00:47,580
because I can't really
just sit and talk

22
00:00:47,580 --> 00:00:52,630
and word vomit all the facts.

23
00:00:52,630 --> 00:00:53,480
And I knew this.

24
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:55,880
But I hadn't really
thought about how are you

25
00:00:55,880 --> 00:00:58,202
going to go about this.

26
00:00:58,202 --> 00:00:59,910
So it's kind of
difficult because I still

27
00:00:59,910 --> 00:01:00,740
don't have my script.

28
00:01:00,740 --> 00:01:01,573
I'm working on that.

29
00:01:01,573 --> 00:01:05,570
And I have not very
much at the moment--

30
00:01:05,570 --> 00:01:07,405
just a lot of fragments.

31
00:01:07,405 --> 00:01:09,030
And I'm going to try
to piece together.

32
00:01:09,030 --> 00:01:13,860
But I also had a bit of an
aha moment this morning.

33
00:01:13,860 --> 00:01:16,370
It mainly gave me some
ideas on what I can

34
00:01:16,370 --> 00:01:22,690
do for my story moving forward.

35
00:01:22,690 --> 00:01:24,820
Particularly, what I guess
I'll just say is one,

36
00:01:24,820 --> 00:01:27,010
I've been looking
at decomposition

37
00:01:27,010 --> 00:01:29,890
in just the context
of food in the fridge.

38
00:01:29,890 --> 00:01:32,070
But I think one
question I get asked

39
00:01:32,070 --> 00:01:33,570
that could be the
title of the video

40
00:01:33,570 --> 00:01:37,250
even is how's your fridge
like a forest floor?

41
00:01:37,250 --> 00:01:39,160
Because the cool thing
with decomposition

42
00:01:39,160 --> 00:01:41,960
is that there is
basically nothing on Earth

43
00:01:41,960 --> 00:01:43,140
that eats lignin.

44
00:01:43,140 --> 00:01:48,140
Lignin is the other
main polysaccharide

45
00:01:48,140 --> 00:01:52,520
or sugar-like carbohydrate
thing that makes up wood.

46
00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:56,650
It's cellulose in
a matrix of lignin.

47
00:01:56,650 --> 00:02:01,170
And people think it's cellulose,
but not think it's lignin.

48
00:02:01,170 --> 00:02:02,510
Termites eat it.

49
00:02:02,510 --> 00:02:04,830
And then protists in
their stomach digest it.

50
00:02:04,830 --> 00:02:06,360
And then there is
fungi and bacteria

51
00:02:06,360 --> 00:02:08,259
that can digest lignin.

52
00:02:08,259 --> 00:02:11,850
And that's a really cool
thing that decomposers

53
00:02:11,850 --> 00:02:13,620
do that the world
really actually needs,

54
00:02:13,620 --> 00:02:15,962
because if you
imagine-- and this

55
00:02:15,962 --> 00:02:18,420
is the second idea for a video
that would really be turning

56
00:02:18,420 --> 00:02:22,244
everything on is imagining a
world without decomposition

57
00:02:22,244 --> 00:02:23,410
and what that would be like.

58
00:02:23,410 --> 00:02:25,600
That could be another thing.

59
00:02:25,600 --> 00:02:27,850
Both ideas that I think
would make great videos.

60
00:02:27,850 --> 00:02:30,490
And it would be I
think a good place

61
00:02:30,490 --> 00:02:32,519
to go with where I
am, because right now,

62
00:02:32,519 --> 00:02:34,060
I'm just going
through an explanation

63
00:02:34,060 --> 00:02:37,010
video of decomposition.

64
00:02:37,010 --> 00:02:40,160
And, yeah, those
are the two aha.

65
00:02:40,160 --> 00:02:43,350
What would life without
decomposition be?

66
00:02:43,350 --> 00:02:49,654
Or talking about how your
fridge is like a forest floor.

67
00:02:49,654 --> 00:02:51,320
And you could even
say like your stomach

68
00:02:51,320 --> 00:02:53,278
and how the word
decomposition-- but I probably

69
00:02:53,278 --> 00:02:55,550
won't do the stomach.

70
00:02:55,550 --> 00:02:57,800
Aha moment,
storyboarding, I think

71
00:02:57,800 --> 00:02:59,520
I've come up-- at
least for the part I

72
00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:01,353
did storyboard is
actually a pretty good way

73
00:03:01,353 --> 00:03:02,650
to present the material.

74
00:03:02,650 --> 00:03:04,670
So I'm excited for that.

75
00:03:04,670 --> 00:03:07,490
And yeah, I really, really
liked the presentation

76
00:03:07,490 --> 00:03:08,360
by Planet Nutshell.

77
00:03:08,360 --> 00:03:10,450
I thought they did a great job.

78
00:03:10,450 --> 00:03:15,830
And they're super helpful
and getting me to understand

79
00:03:15,830 --> 00:03:19,740
what the process is.

80
00:03:19,740 --> 00:03:21,720
Yeah, wow!

81
00:03:21,720 --> 00:03:24,560
Makes me appreciate
also in the end,

82
00:03:24,560 --> 00:03:26,800
it was about a month
working on that animation.

83
00:03:26,800 --> 00:03:30,910
So I think that animation
is far beyond what I

84
00:03:30,910 --> 00:03:32,300
would expect myself to produce.

85
00:03:32,300 --> 00:03:35,860
But given I have less
than a month-- less

86
00:03:35,860 --> 00:03:37,060
than professional skills.

87
00:03:37,060 --> 00:03:39,365
I feel a little less
pressure, at least

88
00:03:39,365 --> 00:03:41,490
if I want to animate
something or add these things,

89
00:03:41,490 --> 00:03:44,150
then that I'm not going to have
to do some great production out

90
00:03:44,150 --> 00:03:44,650
of it.

91
00:03:47,880 --> 00:03:49,430
See you.
