Final Exam Preview

1. Explain your experiences with creating videos. Anything counts, facebook live, youtube, vine, tiktok, snapchat, insta, ect.

I have experience with using youtube and creating videos on the platform. I know how to edit and such but it isn't too well since I don't make videos often. I only use it to see where my progress is for doing something that I want to try and improve on.

2. What do you think the biggest differences you might encounter using a DSLR or GoPro compared to your phone.

The biggest different I think I might encounter is having to figure out how it works because I have no clue at all and compared to my phone, I already know how to use it very well. Also the fact that for GoPro and DSLR you can't tell where it is aiming at while on your phone you do because you can control it.

3. Now that you know what your assignment is, please list at least three ideas you have for creating video.

I would most likely create a video about  my newest pet in the household to see what he does in his free time or just throughout his day. But also it would be cool to create a video about kids playing on a playground or even just a time-lapse of a long hike or traveling experience throughout the day.

4. I could probably email it to myself or screenshot it so that the photo will become a still image.

5. To explain the music I will be using or playing, explain a photo that is complicated and just a thank you audio of myself at the end.

Personal Essays



1. What was one idea that the writer gave in the Wide Range of Topics section that you can use as you start deciding on a topic?


  • You can write about something you care strongly about so the readers can know how you feel and understand where you're coming from




2. What was one idea the writer gave in the Opinions Pieces section that you should remember as you are writing your piece?



  • Avoiding abstract expressions as you are writing opinion pieces because you don't want to bore the reader with generalizations. You want to pull them in with details instead.





3. List three suggestions the writer makes in the Personal Essays and Crafts section that you will use as you write.



  • Writing essays in a great way to get your opinions off your chest, but avoid philosophical rants which make no connection to your reader’s experience. Again, keep it personal while relating to a wider world
  • The hook is the device you use to get your reader’s attention. It’s the doorway through which you welcome and orient them to the piece. Try using:

  1. A question. (“When was the last time you went without a meal?”)
  2. A quotation from someone famous or something you’ve read/overhead. (“Be careful” were the last words my father said to me each time I left the house.)
  3. A strong statement that your essay will either support or dispute. (“If you eat enough cabbage, you’ll never get cancer.”)
  4. A metaphor. (“The starlings in my back garden are the small boys in the playground, impressing each other with their new-found swear words. The crows all belong to the same biker gang. You need to know their secret sign to join their club.”)
  5. A description of a person or setting. (“Michael once mowed the lawns around Municipal Hall wearing a frilly apron, high heels and nylons, with a pillow stuffed under his sweater so he looked pregnant. And it wasn’t even Halloween.”)
  • Personal essays by definition contain a personal perspective. You should be there. Watch your construction. If every sentence begins “I”, you need to rephrase to provide a better rhythm and pace to your piece.

She had already became the baseball manager and helps out a National Charity whenever she can.
