Summary of actual work over second weekend
Was able to get wood so that I could begin to build the platform for the camera.

Week2 Narrative
After class on thursday I went into the back room to try and look for some wood so that I could begin to build the platform. After looking around in the back room for a couple of minutes I could not find any wood so I went to home depot and brought 3 piecees of wood. Brought it to class the following thursday and get two of the pieces cut.

My Third task
I plan on building the platform for the camera and also looking up a way to make the camera move up or down according to a certain persons height

Summary of actual work over third weekend
I actually got a chance to build the platform for the camera. The first one that i built was not was i thought it would be because it was very unstable and was not well put together. I took it a part and added new parts to make it more stable then what it was.

Week3 Narrative
I went into the room in the back and started to rebuild what I had made the week before. I had to first take the whole thing a part because the way that I had built it the first time was not good. The first time i built it it was very unstable and the screws at the top were very lose. The second time I put a part in the middle so that it would be more stable and then put in different screws. I used shorter screws instead of the longer one.

My Fourth task
''Record what you are planning on doing for the team during the final weekend of project work. ''

Summary of actual work over fourth weekend
