IntroDuction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The Documentary Unit was one of my favorite times at freestyle academy. In Animation we <\/p>\n\n\n\n

learned to put together a large composition of all the things we learned to do into something that<\/p>\n\n\n\n

was truly special. We incorporated the things we were learning in or english class into our animations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I documented my sister and her struggles through quarantine and how she has overcome challenges<\/p>\n\n\n\n

through her time in isolation. Putting these emotions and struggles into art was very special to me <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and this unit will forever be a reminder of what I can create with the things I learn in freestyle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Through the unit there were three main projects that really made it special, one in each class. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

All classes have their values and in this unit I explored the utility and value of taking each of <\/p>\n\n\n\n

these classes at freestyle. This Unit was a project that spanned all of the classes and was based on<\/p>\n\n\n\n

profiling someone for an article in english, A print option in digital media, an I used the interview<\/p>\n\n\n\n

recording in my Animation Classes. The best part about freestyle in my opinion is the connections<\/p>\n\n\n\n

between the classes and this unit really displayed that interesting and rare style of learning <\/p>\n\n\n\n

environment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first project that was very helpful and taught me lots of interesting skills was using <\/p>\n\n\n\n

InDesign to create a brochure in Digital Media. Using this software allowed me to bring my profile <\/p>\n\n\n\n

article to life by using slick formatting and interesting color schemes. This project taught me how to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

use the software and how to make unique text documents that can be printed out and used in real life. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I can see myself using these skills long after freestyle is over to create fliers and formal documents to <\/p>\n\n\n\n

enhance my professional and personal life.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our english class, we were tasked with interviewing a <\/p>\n\n\n\n

noteworthy subject and creating a profile article on them and I choose to profile someone who was <\/p>\n\n\n\n

struggling with mental health because it is a very important topic for me. I profiled my sister’s struggles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

with mental health and the pandemic and how she learned to cope and overcome these adversities as <\/p>\n\n\n\n

well as some advice that she has for people in her position.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is Gloria Copeland. She is in the sixth grade <\/p>\n\n\n\n

and through lessons learned through her struggles<\/p>\n\n\n\n

in the pandemic she has learned to rely on herself<\/p>\n\n\n\n

and other to cope with the isolation Covid instilled<\/p>\n\n\n\n

on younger generations of students. She is doing <\/p>\n\n\n\n

much better now that the pandemic has ended and<\/p>\n\n\n\n

has adapted to a bad situation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My profile article covers the struggles Of gloria and how she was able to overcome them using coping<\/p>\n\n\n\n

skills and reaching out to the people that cared for her. We see an interesting story of how the pandemic tore<\/p>\n\n\n\n

her down, and how she built herself back up after being crushed by the isolation of quarantine. We also see<\/p>\n\n\n\n

some insight from gloria on things that others can apply to their own bad situations to make themselves able<\/p>\n\n\n\n

to cope much easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In animation I took an interview recording <\/p>\n\n\n\n

from a conversation between me and my sister and I created a unique animation out of the interview <\/p>\n\n\n\n

recording. This project was one of my favorites because we were given complete creative freedom to<\/p>\n\n\n\n

create whatever we wanted with the audio that was given.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
