Convergence Journalism Feature Story Blog

       
       For this group project we decided to interview Drew Sappingfield on a few different topics about his Diabetes including, the everyday struggles he has to deal with surrounding his Diabetes. We started pre production by making sure we had everything we needed for the day like a good location, camera, microphone, and everything. We also made a script of the questions that we would ask Drew to make sure the answers would inform people and spread awareness. For the interview we made sure was looking at me and not directly at the camera.
     For editing I used Adobe Premier. I made sure I had enough time for this one to put in my best effort. My first version of the project had my voice over asking the questions like it was any regular interview. With my revised version I went through and redid all the video overs and made the answer connect to what I was saying and not like a straight interview.
       If I were to redo this project I would make sure we have more than enough B-Roll. I felt like we had enough but once the editing process started we realized that we could use a lot more B-Roll to keep the video fresh. I would use the same style of editing if I did this project again because I felt like it turned out pretty well. I liked this project overall and watching through this video I can tell that I have improved a lot since freshman year.

We got plans too a house and recreated it Sketch Up.  It had too be over 500 Square Ft. and it took us over 3 weeks. Once we saved the plans we started building it. I started by measuring out the dimensions and making the base for my house. I then pulled the roof out of the block. I started making all the accessories to the the house like the windows and the porch and the doors. I added all the textures and the roofing and then my house was done.         On Career Cruising Animator and Graphic Design and Videographer were all part of my 10 career choices. These are all things that I would like to choose as a career. I ...

        W E L C O M E T O M Y B L O G ! In Ecomm we had a sidewalk chalk projects to get to know people in our groups. We came together and made something that represented all of us. We spend the first day planning what we were going to create and made  a rough draft. My Group planning what to make The second day we started our final creation. Even though some people in our group put more of what they wanted in the chalk picture some parts of it represented all of us. The colors in our project didn't mean anything we just wanted it to be colorful. Each of the symbols represent things about our selfs. If we did this different I would want our group to work together more and make the decisions together. Thank you for reading. Good bye. Our final creation

E-Comm Final

 E-Communication has been a fun 4 years, and it is sad to see it end. Takeaways from E-Comm Senior Year Technical Skills - One of the biggest areas of improvements I have had throughout this year of E-Comm is with my editing skills. I've taken on the duties of Editor for many of my projects this year, and I was able to hone my skills and get to a place where I am proud to show off my editing. Communication - Communication was a struggle amongst all students this year with how often we had to switch the schooling style, from all online, to hybrid, to all in person. This made it difficult for us and lead to us having to communicate in different ways, whether it be through E-Mail, text, etc; However I feel like this struggle greatly improved my ability to communicate with other people. Collaboration - Collaboration is another part of E-Comm that was made hard this year due to the pandemic. However me and my groups were able to work together through different ways and work together on ...
