For my final project, I have decided to explore history of
the Jewish religion. I myself am Jewish, deeming it a very
appropriate and personal topic.
The main purpose of this project will be to educate
viewers on the topic of the Jewish religion, specifically
discussing the various rituals, celebrations, customs
traditions, and holidays that the Jewish people partake
in during the year. There is a very long list, so my final
project will focus primarily on the ones most known and
most celebrated.
The production of my final project will feature an
infographic, music, animation, text, and narration.

Jewish
Customs&Celebrations&Rituals
Being Jewish comes with responsibility. There are
certain rules to follow when it comes to following
Jewish customs. Some of these rules are stated
in what are called the ten commandments, said
to be inscribed by God on two stone tablets and
given to the Israelites at the biblical Mount Sinai.
These commandments include instructions to
worship the one and only God, keep the Sabbath,
and discourage murder, blasphemy, theft, and
dishonesty among other things. These ten
instructions are at the core of the Jewish religion,
and are valued quite intensely by some.
Another Jewish custom is to wear a kippa or a
yamulka, which is a small round cap that is worn
in order to separate you from God. It is worn at all
times by orthodox Jews.
Part of being Jewish is to perform an action called a mitzvah, of which there are
infinite possibilities. A mitzvah essentially means to do a good deed, which could
be to feed the homeless, volunteer your time, help the elderly, anything as long as
its an honourable act. Being an honourable and humble human being is a big part
of the religion.
Similarly, there is also a celebration called a bar or bat mitzvah, which is a
celebration of a Jewish man or woman coming of age - becoming an adult.
For a man, the bar-mitzvah typically happens at the age of thirteen, and for a
woman the bat-mitzvah occurs at the age of twelve. One is allowed to have a
bar or bat mitzvah at any time in their lifetime, although this is rarely done over
the age of twenty years old. During this celebration, there is a ceremony and a
celebration afterwards. During the ceremony, the boy or girl will read a portion
of the Torah scroll in Hebrew, which is the language of the Jewish and Israeli
people. This portion is read after a thorough learning of Jewish culture and the
Hebrew language, and of course the memorization of the portion. Afterwards, a
celebration ensues, typically in the prescence of family and friends.
