Well it’s the end of the semester; my how
time flies. At the start of the semester I never made any type of film or audio
projects but through all of the projects and assignments that we were given to
complete I was able to produce media I never thought I had the knowledge or
skill set to create. I had only wanted to promote works of media not create it.
But I had a very enriching experience in the world of film and media throughout
the semester. I have always had a passion for film, media, and television; they
are the main mediums that represent and tell the story of our culture and
society. The media is fast paced and something new is always developing which
is perfect for my easily bored disposition. During the course of the semester I
was able to work in various parts of the media industry and create work which I
am proud of.
Moreover, through the content that I created
this semester I was able to finally express some of my hidden creativity and I
was able to channel it through different forms of media like my sound
interview, short film, and various written blog posts. Through my sound
interview I got the privilege of sharing a very personal story of one of my
classmates and was able to spotlight the all too common social issue of
domestic abuse which she had gone through. I was also able to portray my
passion for comedy through the short film that I co-created; which showed a
very exaggerated and comedic portrayal of registering for classes at Hunter.
Producing these assignments gave me the opportunity to be a legitimate media
maker and allowed me to explore some of my interests and passions.
Finally, I am graduating this semester and
through the skills and knowledge I gained in Media 160 and my great internship
at 20th Century Fox I can leave college proud with my head held high
knowing I can concur the media industry
I so desperately so want to be a part of. I am hoping to use all of the work I
created this semester as a beginning portfolio while on my job hunt and I hope
to nurture and build what I have already created and add even more of my
passions and interests to it. This class was the icing on the cake to my last
semester in college and I will use all the skills, knowledge and creativity
that has been sparked in me to become a great media professional. #mediamogul
