 * Eye of the Editor - Compare and Contrast:**
 * 1) How is your story similar or different from the stories in the movies of your group? My movie has the videos in order like the rest of my group's movies, but the music, the theme, and the text is different.
 * 2) What techniques did you use or did members of your group use to change the story? I had the text on the video clips and I had the music off when the clips played. The text was related to the story.
 * 3) Describe how the editor can control and manipulate the final version of the story to change the message or to change the emphasis. The editor can change the order of the movie clips and take parts out from a clip. The way that the story goes is the editor's decision.
