My experience of this project was a hard one. The person I interviewed is my grandmother. Since she lives in south county so it was hard to see her and find a good time to do the interview because I don't have easy access to a car. But I learned a lot of things about when she was younger and how she spent her time and what she did with her friends. She was a very active member of the student body at her high school being involved in the newspaper and planning all sorts of events, which she continues to plan to this day. The editing of my interview was very hard because I'm not very good with final cut pro even though we have been using it this semester I was still learning new things about it and furthering my knowledge on using it. But overall the project was fun to do because it helped be become closer with my grandmother.

Ernest Hemmingway was an American author who started the trend of 6 word stories with his story "For Sale: Baby Shoes: Never worn." this was supposedly a bet between him and his friends on if he could write the story or not. My favorite 6 word story that I found was "Strangers. Friends. Best friends. Lovers. Strangers." I feel as if this one sticks out to me because its something that I experience a lot. You become really close with someone until you drift apart.
In this video I learned a lot of things about recording films. Some of the main things were the different size of shots like tight, medium, and wide. The rule of third is also important where the picture should be broken up with a grid to help the people watching know where to focus. You should also white balance your camera to make the shot as clear as possible. Another thing is that you should avoid background lights because they will make your shot not as clear. I also learned that even if you have good equipment good technique is more important.
We have been learning about final cut pro and the different features it includes. Its similar to iMovie from a layout perspective but its much better with the functions it offers. Its also much easier to implement music and you can customize the text easily.
During this unit I learned how many jobs are needed to produce a tv show. My favorite was the tech board because you had to pay attention and make sure you were on the right camera and switched to Aja and the cg when you needed to. The other job I really enjoyed was the prompter. You had to make sure you were focused on how fast the talent was reading and you could have it go too slow or too fast.
During this project I encountered a lot of set backs like my computer crashing several times and losing all my progress. I got to look back on my past through these pictures of my past.
