Portfolio Project reflection

 My final reflection!!

Let's start over. Hello, my name is Christian Schroder, and this is my final reflection after working for a pretty long time on the Portfolio Project. Me and my partners Sebastien Nicolas and Kai Rader have worked and done the best possible, we enjoyed every moment of this Project. We encountered many problems including the time, the shots, the re doing of things and even the editing. We have gone through it all, but it was all worth my time.

Anyway, I came into this class not knowing anything. I was thinking of switching out. Throughout the class I wasn't very interested. But when the Portfolio Project came, I was even more bothered. I was thinking, more work, and there goes my time off. But I didn't realize that it was going to be this fun! Obviously, my partners were a huge part of the fun that I had, but learning all the different shots and techniques in the media sphere was more than interesting. I would 100% recommend this class to anyone, even if they don't know anything. I looked forward to coming to class and even when we had to film in the weekend because of this Portfolio Project.

These blogs really helped me with everything, like the shot we take, the CCR content and it even gave me a base to build my overall Project. Overall, this Portfolio Project was a gift. What I mean by that is that this school year itself has been hard, a lot of studying and a lot of tests. The Portfolio Project was a way that I could relax but also being involved and interactive while having fun. It was as if we were working but at the same time, we weren't. Sure, there was some problems and they were surely annoying and complicated to fix, but it was all worth it in the end. 

I came into the Project knowing little and left with a huge amount of knowledge. Whether it was the preparation or the process of building the film opening as well the CCR's, I came out with a lot of important details that will not only help me in my future essays and possibly any other classes, but it will help me with my life. Yes, this Portfolio Project was indeed one of my highlights in this school year. 

Anyway, tomorrow will be the last blog that I will post. It's sad that it's all coming to an end. But it surely isn't all done. Tomorrow, I will give you guys the final film opening product as well as my CCR that is divided into 2 different videos. Questions 1 and 2 in the first video which is the director commentary and the second video with question 3 and 4 as a talk show that featured my brother Stefa Schroder which was also in the film opening as an actor.

Stay tuned!
