Interview Project

    The story my group wanted to convey in this assignment was Alex Paulis point of view on school soccer. In my video, I personally made a story of how Alex started playing soccer and where he is now. I then talked about the future of soccer for not only Alex, but the whole team.

    In pre-production, my group wrote a list of 20 questions to ask Alex. This was harder than thought to be. We then set up a date to meet with Alex and interviewed him, asking all of the questions, knowing some of his answers would be longer than others. When all the film of Alex was taken, we turned to footage of the soccer team playing for b-roll. After I had all the film, I had to write a voice over leading into all of Alex's answers to the questions we asked him. I wrote the opening to the interview and an end, so there would be a clear beginning, middle, and end. After that it was just editing, making sure I got a variety of shots in my interview.

    My role in this process was writing questions, sceduling with Alex, getting film of the soccer game, and writing a voice over for the final product. I played a good role for the team. I learned more about editing a video, such as I learned how to add captions and make them move. As always, I improved my collaboration skills working with other people and planning around their schedules.

    In conclution, next interview I do I woud probably get close shots of the soccer game (or any b-roll), as playing too much of the same angle shot gets boring. Adding to this, the next project I will take the skills I learned about the filming process and use them to make a good final product. There will always be room for improvement with me.

My Personality Type

Myers-Bryggs type This personality test told me I was an ESFP. ESPF meaning extravert, sensing, feeling, and perceiving. Someone with all of these characteristics is usually friendly, caring and energetic. They are also good about expressing themselves and are confidant. An ESFP is sensitive to feelings and makes decisions based on how them and others feel rather than a more logical answer. I share a Myers-Bryggs type with Ronald Reagan and Bill Clinton. Me and my type My personality type I feel does generally describe me. I make decisions based on how I feel and I am very confident. WhileI feel I am an extravert in some ways , I also have a lot of characteristics of an introvert. This did show in the test results when it said 6% of extravert. While it was interesting to find out what type I was, I knew most of these characteristics about myself already. In real life situations I tend to do what the test says I do. I can lead a group confidently if had to, but I am easy...

Semester reflection

Starting the year This year started with my self portrait video. I put a lot of effort into this video and I feel it came out as good as I wanted it to be. This was a good start to the year for me and the videos that followed only paralleled this. Working in groups has helped with my other projects also, getting multiple point of views. Progression of the year I feel I have improved throughout the year with editing and filming. I have learned a surplus things to think about when taking shots for a video. I learned to think about the 6 shot system to create variety in my work. I was able to practice my editing skills with every video I made. End of the year By the end of the year, I feel that I have learned valuable tips on how to create news stories and put together interviews. Not only have I gotten better at creating stories, but I have improved in question making, filming, and editing everything together to create an interesting an informative video. With that, I have al...

ONW NOW

ONW NOW sports story project  Starting this project      I feel have have done the best work I possibly could have for this project. It started with my team brainstorming what sport we would want to do a new story on, taking into consideration of how easily we will be able to reach these sports. After collaboration, my team and I made the decision to do a story on the cheer leading team. It only felt the most appropriate because the team is going to nationals soon, and they practice during 7th hour, the hour I have video production. The next step in the process was to find some cheerleaders to interview. Interviewing process      We decided as a team it would be best to interview a freshman and senior, to contrast how they looked at the sport. We found that after both interviews the two girls said pretty similar things. After this, our team needed B roll. We filmed the cheer leaders doing various stunts and even got one of their dances. We tried...
