Quarter 1 Project

Kristen Medina

The whole project is basically about picking different concentrations for each quarter and we got to choose either to do a news cast, sports, short film, documentary, weather, commercials. I choose to do a mini documentary about alcoholism, because it was something very personal too me.

The process was basically getting the idea approved and trying to get interviews, and editing the video right after and meeting deadlines for when things were do. Some challenges i faced were trying to get interviews because i would call places and no answers or getting call backs. Yes, I think it showed how personal the topic was to me and it showed how it can impacted my life and showing others my story.

Some things that i learned was making sure to meet the dead lines, and getting interviews ahead of time and i also learned that the topic that i choose was really big and how it effects people on a daily bases. I choose this concentration because it means so much to me to talk about this because it was very personal topic to talk about and i wanted to show people my side of the story and what i went through.
