Immigration Video

 

Have you ever interviewed someone to have a good time or discover something new about this person’s life? Well this is finally the time I am ready to complete my immigration video about my dad. This project was from school and it took some time to plan. Even though this project taught me something. I got to have my personal opinion on what images I wanted to include and even decided which music seemed the best for each clip. Know that you get what made me interested. I will reflect on my opinion and what I learned throughout this enthusiastic project.

I will begin with my personal opinion on the video… While beginning to establish my video many things caught my eye. like the amount of pictures there were to be presented and the consistent pace you had to keep to make the video sound good. This all made me feel nervous and worried about my final result. Until I calmed down and got back on track to finish the video. however After some hours of working it wasn’t as bad as I thought it would be. The pictures turned out to be the right time and they all made sense to what was being told. Leading me to feel well and work until I was done with everything. But with three fourths of the video the system crashed at home! Making me have to wait about 30 minutes until wevideo reconnected. After all, it turned out to be just fine. As the project was obtained by the teacher on the correct date.

Second of all, this project has taught me good life lessons and has shown me that a good  time has to be dedicated to whatever activity you are doing. It might not be important or guaranteed but if you want to do it well you have to dedicate a lot of time to it. Another life lesson I learned from the project was that for a hard time to be over you have to calm down because getting mad will just make it more frustrating. This project is not only good but amazing. It taught me what is needed for a good project but in all it shows the matter of work for success.

In conclusion, this project is terrific. It has shown me examples of the right thing to do and is a new way to develop your communication levels. I really recommend this project to whoever has communication goals and is willing to make a video voice of themselves. However, the main point is to see if you can learn new things about the person you are interviewing. So go on to have a good time not only interviewing but learning.

Immigrant Interview

Have you ever immigrated to a new country or been forced to leave? Well Nicola has. Nicola is a former worker at AB INbev. AB INbev is a beer company that has sent Nicola to live in many places in the world like Mexico, even the USA.So now that you know how Nicola is ,I will talk about my experience while interviewing him about immigration. The interview might have taken a while but preparing the interview and asking the questions were the hardest and these two things will be shared in the next body paragraphs.

Even though preparing my work for the interview was exhausting, the questions were the hardest to come up with. First off, I didn’t know if I should talk about his character changing or about what he thought of living in a new country. After a while I remembered about this school template that had some questions to keep in mind. The questions were not bad so I decided to stick with many. After some more research I had a total of 13 questions permitting me to start interviewing my dad. Knowing that I had enough questions I had to prepare myself for the interview. I first had to locate and find a picture from where he was born and other images of his family all together. Even though the photos were not the hardest to find, I had to do it very carefully. With the questions and the images done it was time for the interview.

The interview was not the hardest to complete; it resisted of asking the questions and then rewriting them. This didn’t seem hard because I knew that Nicola had already talked about this before. Being how I am, I decided to finish it quickly. However I had forgotten that my dad was out for a business trip and would only come back 5 days before the assignment had to be handed back. This made me have a big disadvantage and I started to worry. After a few days of waiting he finally came back with no time to waste. I got right into it. Even though I had said that rewriting didn’t seem to be so hard, after all it wasn’t a problem, it just took a while of dedication and time… Finally after some days of work it was done.

Now that the interview was done we still had to make the video. However this time it would take a lot more effort and work. Meaning that there was no time to waste and the project had to go on!
