Explanation
To anyone here to view/assess any work I may have posted up here.
I have repeated my technology class due to my lack of comfort and intense frustration with video/audio media, specifically my podcast and video tutorial.
In my attempts to finally upload my podcast after probably the worst weekend I have had in months including my final semester's classes getting dropped and getting into a car accident, my entire page's worth of projects got deleted.
I am making no attempt to recover anything, to try and make my page look good for what it is, nothing. I am here to upload my projects, the required materials along with my finished projects, and to go home so I can stop crying in the computer lab.
I truly apologize if my lack of politeness and inability to stifle my immense frustration and sadness on the subject effects anyone's opinions/grades towards me. Thank you for understanding.

Podcast Attempt #2
This project and I do not have a kind relationship. It was a struggle Ive felt uncomfortable with the entire way starting back into February 2019.
In the grand scheme of things, this was a really good skill to know, but I probably won't be doing podcasts anytime in the future. Due to my PTSD and intense dysphoria towards my own identity recently, having to carefully focus in on my voice was incredibly hard for me. The next struggle I faced was mostly inaccessibility to resources; in my school's library/computer lab, I was only able to find adobe premiere pro, a really intense program to try and navigate on your own. I was able to do it though, then I accidentally deleted my audio several times trying to add photos, a simple task I had to google for over half an hour to do. I could see this being a useful tool for at-home step by step tutorials for students. I won't use this skill in my classroom in the foreseeable future, due to discomfort with my own voice and really developing a sense of "is this ever going to be easy enough to where I can finally finish it?!" towards the process. |

Video Tutorial
This project was still really hard, especially in the editing stages, but I actually enjoyed myself with this one. Once I was able to surpass having to show my face/speak, it made the project entirely more comfortable for me.
This is a medium I have been interested in for a while, a teacher I observed for did a lot of video tutorials and having grown up on YouTube speed paints and tutorials, I also got excited seeing my work in a format I used to look up to. This was a really fun process. I just need to pay more attention to shot set up and how long my videos are (or find a way to transfer larger videos from my phone to my computer). Even though my tutorial looks more like a 'thumbnail sketch' than a 'finished drawing', it still looks really good to me for my first attempt! :) |
