Proactive or Procrastination?

To be honest, I am probably the biggest procrastinator you will probably ever meet. I don't use my time wisely and I'm one of those people that lays in bed on Sunday night and realizes that I have a ton of work to do. Yes, It's real, that really happens.

I have free time all the time, which is probably what causes most of my stress because I need to turn things in on time. Like half of my projects are done at last minute the night before. I tend to work better when I'm tired though. Or when it's late at night because my "creative mind" gets going. Or even when I'm listening to music.

I think I would change my work habits by not waiting to the last minute to finish my work, definitley. And maybe trying to complete everything thats mandatory first, so then I don't have to worry about it in the long run. I could probably do a lot to change my work habits.

Lessons Learned

The most interesting part of this project so far was probably getting to interview a bunch of people and learning a lot of new things about interviewing and B-Roll and Rule of Thirds and lighting and Exposure Compensation, I think all of that was really cool and that was definitely the most interesting part for me.

I think the biggest roadblock we've encountered throughout this whole thing was probably planning wrong and having only one interview when the transcribes were due, but definitely due dates were the biggest roadblock we've experienced those are scary.

I think the most valuable part of the filmmaking process was probably getting to edit our shots and getting to see what it looked like all together and instead of different little shots and definitely just getting to edit in Final Cut Pro and learning about and getting some good opinions about what were making.

Back to School

So school just started again and it's going really well so far. This is our first post of the year. My favorite moment so far was getting into GT and getting to sit next to and learn from my best friend, Makena. I'm only a first year GT student but last year I was in Digital Art/Yearbook so I'm pretty familiar with everything and it's nice to be back in this class. My biggest challenge so far this year would definitely be having to transition from 6th to 7th and having new classes and new teachers and knowing that this grade is gonna be harder than the last.

To be successful this year I plan on trying to make everything easier for myself. I know everything that I need to know and how I'm gonna turn everything on time and be on time for most classes and definitely try not to fall behind in anything I do.
