We went around with a still camera and took pictures of objects that resembled letters.
We found each letter from A to Z. I assisted with finding photos.
I eventually compiled a movie using the letters we found.
I used garage band for the audio, and I Movie for the video.

Copyright
Listened to an audio of a woman named Helane Hegemann whom stole an extract from someone's blog and placed it in her book. Below are the notes that I have taken.
Plagiarism: homage or stealing?
Helane Hegemann defends herself by saying there’s no such thing as originality, just authenticity.
Helane Hegemann is being accused of plagiarising a blog, by taking out about 20 paragraphs and inserting it into the book without mentioning it. Her book, entitled “Axolotl Roadkill”, is a book about a teenage girl whose mother died of alcoholism.
Helane Hegemann has just turned 18 years old; her father is a famous director of the Berlin theatre.
If she Helane Hegemann had acknowledged where the blog had come from, the charges against her would have been less severe.
The blogger said ‘she stole my life’, ‘I experienced that, and she just took it and put it into her book.’ The blogger’s book sold only 100 copies whilst Helane Hegemann’s book sold 100,000 copies.
Philipp Theisohn is the author of a book called plagiarism: An Unoriginal Literal History.
