Table of Contents for research journal:

Bio sheet for five main participants followed by each intro will be artifacts supplied or pertinant to that particular participants story
miscellaneous artifacts, notes, artifact description and other necessities I have collected through time with the project
Mapped out plan for multimedia portion (updated):
I am deciding still whether it might be a good idea to have three partipants that are studied more in depth or if it would be more beneficial to be broad and only have five participants. Thus far I have conducted one interview and am still in the editting process of both my personal intro to the story as well as the clips and audio from the interview. I plan to have an intro that introduces how I came to the project through personal experience with mixed clips of things that involve my stress and how that relates to me. Then with a transition slide I will begin the interview clips with intermitant clips of stress causers, relievers, and outlets that are pertinant to the participant and what they are talking about throughout the interview.
Codes:
STR-YOU-stress caused by pressure one puts on themself
STR-OTH-stress caused by others or surroundings
RL-reminder literacy, things that are used to maintain organization in order to relieve stress
ORG-use of organization to lower stress levels
My project is definitely starting to take shape, the main focus is organizing the different thought concepts and how they will be portrayed in the multimedia presentation. I look forward to getting to learn more about the editting programs and getting a good start on organizing the multimedia presentation to express the ideas that were spoken about throughout the interview. There is a lot of valid information that needs be put in order in the best way to express the idea of the project. Also, I still need to film the intro to the multimedia presentation that will describe my personal experiences and how they led to my study. There is alot of editting to be done and still alot of interviewing to be conducted but I am definitely pleased with where I am at this point in the project.
