Mostly, it has taught me how to face a challenge. There&#8217;s no easy answer for when something goes wrong. When an actor doesn&#8217;t show up, when audio gets corrupted, when a battery is forgotten, and when the YMCA starts playing music at 8am, you have to find a solution yourself. Unlike so many other schools, with tedious lessons amounting to nothing, at Freestyle, I spent months working a video that would only last a few minutes. I was editing from 4 until midnight with barely any breaks. I stood in the street and traveled to San Francisco every week just to get the shot.

I&#8217;ve also learned a lot about editing techniques and story structure, which have helped me even outside of film. As someone who wants to go into theater as a stage manager or someone on the creative team, Freestyle has given me a lot of skills in creation that will benefit me as I move on to college. It has truly been a privilege and a pleasure to get to be a freestyle student.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The thing I want to showcase is my Junior year documentary.
