SCHS Athletics Promo
December 18th 2019
For one of my first projects during the first quarter of school, I decided to do an athletics promo for SCHS. I decided this because I really like sports. Being that I edited highlights all last year, I wanted to do a highlight reel-type promo. In addition, this project helped my editing skills, which was definitely a good thing for me. I put a lot of thought into this project, although it did not take much time to complete.
A lot of this project was just finding film in the B-roll folder. First, I found potential clips to put into the video. Next, I re-watched the clips I picked out to see which of them I liked the best. Thirdly, I edited together the clips in a sequence that made sense to me. Finally, I added music and graphics at the end.
The hardest thing about this project was finding athletics related clips that I could use. I definitely spent the majority of my time spent on that. Overall, I really enjoyed doing this project. In addition, my editing skills were improved greatly while working on this. Finally, I think this was a good choice as being one of my starting projects.

Decreased Reading Scores News Story
December 12th 2019
For our news story project, Mr. Holt proposed that my group should do a story about decreasing reading scores. We procrastinated this project a lot, but in the end got it done just in time. This project I worked with Eric and Isidro.
We first interviewed Mrs. Geist, secondly Mrs. Wasinger, then finally Mr. McCormick. We got B-Roll in the library, an English class, and of kids on technology. Eric and I had no clue how to edit this project and smash it all together into a clean product. This is when we stayed after school the day before it was due to edit. That afternoon, we got the editing halfway done thanks to Alexis. I thought we would not get this project done in the end, but thankfully, we did. At one point, I was planning not to even do this project. Since my group members were not motivated either, it took us a push to get started.
However, when we finally got the project done the same day it was due I was relieved. I personally think the end product is good quality. It also gets the point and information across to the viewer. In addition, at the same time I was educated on this subject.
