I am not an expert video maker. In fact, I am barely an amature video maker. I needed a lot of help when I was putting together my midterm video project. I didn’t even know how to add music to the background! Technology and I never got along, from the very start. Lucky for me, technology will not stop me from creating a high level video draft for my final project.
Fancy equipment and dazzling special effects can only get you so far. Don’t get me wrong, they are very cool and they do add another level of effort, expertise, and creativity to your project; but, I can still get a very good grade without all the smoke and mirrors.
Research is key. Actually, patience might be the key to keep me from throwing my computer across the room when the video software fails me. So, that makes research my new best friend. With a lot of research on my topic from several different resources, sites, and points of view, I will be able to create a well rounded, informative video. I will also be able to create a strong argument for my point.
I currently have three opinionated interviews from students of various years. Each interview consists of their opinion, an explanation of why they feel this way and an example of their point. I also have several different articles that include surveys, data and testimonies from accredited persons and places. At this moment, I only have two different written examples of policies from two known colleges; but, I hope to get a couple of more and compare them, helping the audience to create their own opinion.
Research will help tremendously. It help to create a full understanding of my topic and argument. It will also help me put forward a good argument. With any luck, I may be able to convince some important people, which would result in a change. For right now, I will just settle for an A.
