Physics of Sports Video
In the physics of sports video we analyzed an action used in sports and gave the physics behind it and how to use it in a sport. In my video we did the forward roll. The forward roll can be used in almost any sport. While running if you stumble rolling is a quick and effective way to get back up and also avoid injury. We started the project by making a storyboard, a storyboard is a sequence of drawings, typically with some directions and dialogue, representing the shots planned for a movie or television production. Storyboarding gave us a clear plan on what we wanted to do in our video. After making the storyboard we started filming and finding other footage that we needed. Once we were done with filming we recorded the audio that you hear in the video. After the audio was recorded we had to edit it all together in a way that made sense and matched our storyboard.

Content:
In the video we used speed to find how fast our roller was going. Speed is the rate at which someone or something is able to move or operate. We also used velocity, when the roller was rolling he had a certain velocity. Rolling is the speed of something in a given direction. Our group also calculated acceleration, when the roller runs and rolls he accelerates. Acceleration is the increase in the rate or speed of something. |
Reflection:
Throughout this project I thought I worked well with the other members of my group and contributed to the final project also. Our group did very well in having a good plan from day one but our execution of the plan was poor. Our group did not communicate well so at the end of our project we had some problems with editing the video but in the end it turned out fine. I found out while doing this project that I am good at making compromises. In the beginning our group wanted to do parkour but that was ridiculous so I had to compromise by just doing rolling. While doing the project I could have helped the other people in my group a little bit more with the script. Next time I will try to help out my group members more and not just focus on what I have to do because it is a group effort to make a video. I also could have been a little bit more patient with my group members because I would get frustrated when they insisted on doing parkour and not doing something we were capable of. These things will help me in future projects and improve the way I interact with other people.
