GearHeads - South DocuDrama

This is one of our two semester long projects in this class. In this project we made a movie to show at a presentation on December 9th. We worked in the same groups as we did for the Vocab Video. Our video was modeled after the Discovery Channel show "Sons of Guns" which is about fixing and building guns. Our show is an explanation on fixing different motors, from a small outboard to a truck motor. Nothing really went poorly for us. Nothing was broken, no boats were swamped or flipped and every motor ended up better after we had worked on it than before. Here is our trailer and our full length movie imbedded.
