Final Reflection

Final Reflection

The most valuable takeaway from technology is learning how to use final cut pro. Final cut pro is very important because that is the software we used to create our videos. Collaboration is also important because in a news room you must work with the people around you to create a product. Communication is important because it gives us the ability to tell others what we need them for or to tell them if we need help. As  newscaster our job is to communicate through our  news stories and tell the public whats going on. Project management is important because it is the time frame we need to complete a package. In the real world a reporter will be given multiple projects at a time and it is their responsibility to get it done. Leadership is always a great quality  because we need more leaders in this world. Also in a news room the leaders are the reporters and directors because they tell everyone what to do and when it needs to be done. Great news stories come from great leaders.

I learned these five guarantees by being in this program. I learned how to communicate by working in groups to create ONW NOW. I learned great leadership skills by working with partners to create our news packages. Project management is a valuable skill and from being in this program I have learned how to manage my time in class and finish my packages on time. Along the way I faced challenges with working with others and time management but I worked through it and overcame it.

My greatest strength is my leadership skills. I tend to take charge in groups and most of the time that means our projects are done on time. I think being a great leader is very important because they are the people who help their group prevail. My Weakness is staying on task. Staying on task a little difficult for me because I have made a lot of great friends in this program and i just love to chat with them.

I have improved tremendously in my voice overs. My voice overs are leading into each soundbite and add to the story. I still need to work on fixing the lighting and framing. When I am out filming I tend to forget the 6 shot system. However, with the skills I have learned from this class I will be able to fix that easily. One thing I would change is the requirement of doing these reflections as our final. Also the 5 Guarantees are not really implemented in our class.

In conclusion this year I learned how to work well with others in order to create a great package. I also made some great friends that helped me complete my projects. The program is a great way to teach students collaboration and how to problem solve.

1st Semester Reflection

This year I gained many strengths. Some of my strengths include project management, cooperation, and leadership. I have strong project management because I get my assignments done on time and they are quality packages. My cooperation skills are strong too because I communicate well with Haley and calm her down when she's stressed out. I have great leadership skills because I can lead people without being bossy. Also my leadership skills have helped me finish my work on time and work well with others. However, I have a few weaknesses like staying on task and being proactive. My plan to become more proactive is by helping out with more things after school and helping set up the broadcast. I will also sit in on the game day broadcasts and learn how to work the equipment. I will stay on task by working on my portfolio and my blogs. Overall this semester was very successful. I learned how to work well with others and what it takes to be a strong leader. I also learned how to be a go...

  My personality type is an ESFJ. ESFJ are kind, smart, and detailed workers. We are concerned about other peoples feelings more than our own. ESFJ take pride and their work and appreciate praise and compliments. I think my personality type fits me right on. For example ESFJ are organized people and  we get our work done on time and that describes me perfectly!   Whenever I participate in group settings I mostly try to be the lead role. I work well and cooperate with my other group members. If my role in the group is not the leadership role then I still tend to participate as much as I can.                      However, sometimes my mom misunderstands me because I try to boss my little brother around. My personality sometimes clashes with my family because we are all very loud and we try to talk over each other most of the time. For example my brothers and I's personality  clash because he isn't very o...

I created this logo by using adobe illustrator. I used the shape tool to create the circle and then i used the color tool to change the color to blue. I then used the triangle tool to create the chevron effect and used the color tool to change the colors. I also used the type tool to type my name and changed the font to reflect my girly and feline side.  Some problems I faced while creating my logo were creating the chevron pattern and figuring out how to position my name.  I addressed the problems by first testing out different shapes and lines to form the chevron then i used different colors to create the illusion of chevron. Some things i did well in the logo project was creating the illusion of chevron and the different colors that went into my logo. However I still need to work on adding different levels of interest and adding more depth. Next time I do this project I will spend more time on details and on the shape and less time on choosing fonts. ...
