It’s me once again. It’s been nearly two months since my last post. I had gotten so wrapped up in everything else that I simply stopped posting. It wasn’t until an email from my professor that I realized I had completely forgotten about my blog… Oops! I don’t need to/want to graduate anyway, right?
In the past few months, I have made a number of leaps and bounds when it comes to both my Capstone and life in general.
The hardest part of my senior Capstone project is done: I’ve caught up with all of my interview subjects and (with the help of a quite a few Broadcasting buddies) have recorded my interviews with them on our lovely, little interview set in our lovely, little television studio. Going into the whole thing, I “psyched myself out” and lost sleep over the entire process when in the end, it wasn’t so bad! Through my experiences, I’ve learned that I’m fairly decent when it comes to interviewing people. I’m able to speak eloquently, ask the right questions and carry out a relevant conversation with someone on camera. Granted, I’m not perfect, but I’m better than I had originally thought.
With this stage of Capstone behind me, I must now capture, review, and edit all of the footage my friends and I shot. Looking at the film I have already captured and with time slowly withering away, I’m worried that I’m not going to be able to produce what I had originally intended. I’m stressed out and pressure from my regular classes doesn’t help matters much either. I just feel like what I’m going to create is going to look awful and I’m going to fail my project thus never graduating from college. I’m such a pessimist…
Once everything is edited down (and looks decent!), I hope to not only post the finished product on our department’s news blog (www.WCN247.com), but also on the corresponding web pages of the people whom I interviewed on Westminster’s website.
When it comes to my life, I’m slowly figuring out what it is I’d maybe like to do if and when I graduate. One of my classes this semester has re-kindled my creative spirit and I’m hoping that once I graduate I’ll be able to utilize my creativity in a career of my choosing. One of my professors has also recognized my creativity and has admitted that I’d probably do well in field where I can express myself. Right now, I’m interested in sales, advertising, graphic design or anything else that requires a nifty-looking image or catchy slogan. I’m continuing to fuel my creative fire next semester by taking a few more classes where I can not only learn, but use my imagination…
Hopefully next week I won’t completely forget about my blog. I hope to get back to my subject and post some relevant information. Right now, I’m looking around my room compiling a list of small things that (I’ve found) are great to have in a college dorm room.
Until then,
♥
