Process

        During editing video I faced to timing problem because there are a lot of letters to explain and limitation of time. But my video is educational video - it means that understanding takes more time. 
For video I chose song name "Timber" (instrumental) by Kesha and Pitbull. I take this song because I like rhythm of song. I think it suits my idea and support video a lot.   




Idea development

            My first idea was to create video to introduce Cyrillic alphabet to English speaking audience. To tell history of Cyrillic alphabet, compare using of Latin and Cyrillic alphabets in the world with infographic and show how many alphabets in the world. Also to explain difference between two alphabets. But due to limitation of time I desided to focus on explanation of difference between alphabets because it is very big topic that take a lot of time. I can not cut anything from alphabet because it exist itself. 











Collecting data

          Most of information I took from myself because I am from Kazakhstan and know several languages including Russian and English. But now I am studying in Malaysia. With my video I want to help my classmates and friends to understand language i speak.
