Senior year can get busy. With all of your college application deadlines coming up, maintaining a balance between social life and academic excellence, it’s hard sometimes. As you learn when applying to colleges, you have to consider the question, “Who Am I?” and find a way to give yourself a way to stand out from all the other applicants. As Freestyle students we were asked to make creations based on how we viewed ourselves in the world. Starting with English, we worked on our personal essays to reflect on how we’ve focused on our core values in life, and how each affects how we are as a person. In Digital Media, we created personalized mandalas that include illustrations of things that have significance in our lives. Finally, in Film, we created a reflections film to visualize how as time passes, the things we value in life change, and showed how that’s important to become a better person. Throughout this unit, I have not only enjoyed making all my projects but also was introduced to another side of myself, finding that being perfect isn’t always the solution to living the best life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In Digital Media we were asked to create a Core Values Video, where we learned how to edit and animate text in Adobe After Effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
