The Physics Of Archery
Project description
For the second project of my freshman year in Stem we did the physics of a sport video. My group chose the sport of archery. We decide to make the video more entertaining we would incorporate the Hunger Games. So we then set out with our props which were a wig, bow, and arrow, to find a filming location. After we got a few shots of Sterling who played Katniss and measurements we went back into the classroom to start editing and calculating the physics. After calculating all the physics we started to film the second half of the film and then we added in some background music and the Hunger Games clip. This project didn't take as long as the Rube Goldberg machine and was a lot easier.

Reflection
In this project we all worked together very well. But, we all could have worked together more in the editing part and the filming and we could have put more effort into the physics part of the video by putting up graphics. But we all contributed very well to our own parts of the video and we are all very creative which helped us out incorporating the Hunger Games aspect.
