I'm Back!

Hey guys! That's right, I'm back for A Level AICE Media. I can't explain how happy I am to be here again. As a quick refresher, my name is Angel Noriega-Rodriguez. I'm in my junior year of high school at Fort Lauderdale High. I am so excited to be in this class for my second year. I had so much fun doing my final task last year and I truly enjoyed learning about audience and institutions. It provided me with knowledge that not many people will have. On the plus side, it makes for great conversation with those who do know about it. Going into this year, I hope to expand on that knowledge and grow my skills in handling equipment involved in a filming project. This year I'd say I'm much more prepared for this class and the projects coming with it. I have more experience with what's expected, the ability to do it, and now the equipment as well. Enough of what I did in my past, and here's what I hope to do in this coming year. For this year, I hope to work with other people and not try and do this project alone. Last year, I believe that was my biggest mistake. Trying to work alone on the final project led me to feel very overwhelmed and I had to work overtime constantly in order to get this done. This year, I'm working with friends to hopefully manage my time better in order to create a better product. Moreover, I think I will be able to work on bouncing my ideas off of others. Working alone, I only had my perspective on my ideas and had to find out the hard way about issues that could've possibly been seen by another person. Getting to bounce ideas on other people would also help me take criticism better and allow me to better myself.
