We need to find something that is done or deals with physics and explain it. I need ideas, and I love making videos so I wonder if maybe video making deals with physics. Any ideas?
Doesn’t have to deal with video making, just ideas.
You can video some dynamical process like gyroscopic motion of a spinning bicycle wheel suspended on a rope or the parabolic trajectory of a ball. Use the video to quantify it’s motion with frame grabbing software and show it obeys classical mechanics.

Well, sure, you could do a project about the light entering the camera lens, how it bends, refracts, etc.
