Video Production
Video Production Reflection
Growth:
My career in e-Communications started my freshmen year. Freshmen year started off with me not knowing anything at all. Quarters were divided and I went through the process of going through animation, video, web, and graphic design. I knew I wouldn't want anything to do with web and animation as I completely didn't have a clue of what I was doing. However, I did now I wanted to go to video regardless of who the teacher was. Fast forward to sophomore year and I was taking Video Production and Graphic Design. I really disliked graphic design, mainly because I didn't learn anything because the teacher didn't know how to teach and made the students ask google how to do a specific thing. Not the best experience. Video Production continued to grow my interest as I learned more and realized filming was a lot of fun and much more simpler than graphic design. It was fun and the only reason I'm still in e-Comm. Now that my junior year is over, I've learned a lot of things to how to get shots in sports events to how to use the camera and tripod to how to set up for games. I've learned how to edit and make videos cleaner and more professional. I've improved a lot since freshmen year and I'd like to thank you, Mr. Cooper. I'm not sucking up, freshmen year I learned a bit but not that much. Sophomore year you've helped since second semester and I'd like to thank you because when I needed help you didn't tell me to go ask google but instead you actually helped and helped me grow in the field.
Relationships:
Throughout this whole year, I've met some new people. Not a lot, but new peers in this class. Seniors, although I didn't speak with them unless I needed help with scheduling. I've met new juniors but only like 3. I've developed a friendships with them. Not to deep but I got along with all of them and there wasn't any drama. I learned how to cooperate with them and made sure communication was a priority in order to make sure no one was disagreeing with an idea. If they criticized my videos, I felt comfortable with them and make sure not to take it to heart because their critiques were very helpful and helped me improve on my video productions. Their help really helped me grow and I'm happy I got to know them personally and professionally.
Time Management:
This class has really pushed me to make sure I used my time wisely. There were times where I had to stay after school and finish videos and there were times where I had to make 2 videos in the time of 3 days. It was stressful and sometimes I wanted to scream but I made it through. My first video was probably some commercial freshmen year and now my normal pieces are of sports that are 35 seconds. They got better and I improved which I am satisfied about because I am really considering taking video production as a career. It took me about two hours to do each one but as the year went on I became much faster and it has taken me about only one hour.
