GLO#2: Community Contributor

A community contributor is a person who participates in group or class discussions and activities. They do not do all the work themselves, nor do they let everyone else take over their share. In groups, these people area able to get along with people to complete a task or goal. When you come across a group full of community contributors the final product is amazing.


Student Television Network Sweet 16 Short Film:

We had a group of 10 people to make a (under 16 minute) short revolving around the prompt: "What Goes Up, Must Come Down." We only had 16 hours to storyboard, shoot, edit, and turn it in. Teamwork played a big part in this project as we all had to stick to our jobs and keep on task. My part to this was 2nd camera. My job was to get the close up shots, or any other side angles that were needed of the same scene, to vary from the main camera. Overall it was an excellent example in teamwork, and we did finish and turn in the project before time was up.

Roaring 20s Music Video: For social studies, in teams of 4, we were to create our own song lyrics to a jazz song describing an aspect of the 1920s. My group wrote our song on the automobiles and radios of the Roaring 20s era. In this project, my job was to write the lyrics and make sure they were easy to understand and stuck to the subject. We all acted and we all sung. My other team member edited the video. However, there was one more requirement to this music video: to get into the spirit, some type of 1920s dance style was required to be danced by anyone in the group. Thinking that we'd go the extra mile, another teammate decided to contact Ferrell's (the ice cream parlor). They had that 1920s backdrop feel we were looking for, and the manager allowed us to film before the shop opened. Here's our final product :)
