I'm going to focus on three main things:
1. I'll show the sports I play. I'll narrate it with voice over, and show me actually doing the sports. For soccer, I'll juggle and play soccer with a friend. I might run up to the camera and talk a little bit if I feel like it. I'll also play a little bit of bball. I'll film myself making a shot that's hella tight. Or two.
2.I'll show my hobbies. First I'll play a little diddy on the piano, making some sweet music. I'll cook some food in the kitchen of my house, like frying food and baking perhaps. I'll show a clip of me just hanging out with my friends. And maybe speed racing in a car since I do that competitively.
3. I'll show some basic things I like and don't like, just so the person gets to know me a little better. Things I like: dancing wiht my friends, singing with my friends, laughing and watching gossip girl. Things I don't like: when my hair gets tangles in it,when it's cold out, watching scary movies. So I'll show these.
The video will be filmed by someone else, with me in it. Most of it will be filmed my house, some at the soccer field, some at the basketball court and also in my car. But it's not my car because my parents won't buy me one and I don't have money. Really cool mom and dad. thanks. I think it'll be kind of a goofy and funny movie.
The commercial type will be a combination of demo and exemplary story, maybe with a little bit of presenter and unique personality property.

the Huge assignment hiller made us do when he was gone
1. How did his video resume help Trent?
His boss wouldn't have even given him an interview if he'd done a paper resume, but doing a video resume showed character and personality,which helped land him the job.
2. What did the employer say about the video with regard to hiring Trent?
He said that the video was just the thing that Trent needed to show what he was really like and to get ahead of other prospective employees.
3. What advantages does a video resume have over a paper resume?
It allows you to show personality compared with a paper resume, which is more black and white and kind of boring.
4. What did you like about these video resumes?
I like that the people are using creativity and showing possible employers what they are really like, instead of trying to just impress them with what seems like the employees want. I liked how Ben's was interactive and not all about work (like when he showed himself playing the piano).
5. What did you dislike?
I thought some of the humor was kind of annoying and unprofessional. But Stanley had a good point that if employers didn't like his humor then that workplace probably wasn't the one for him.
6. What is your opinion of the quality of the video?
I thought both videos were well done. Stanley's was a little boring because it was just him sitting at a desk.
7. What would you do to make your video better than these?
I would have interesting backgrounds, and try to make them more exciting, without coming across as obnoxious.
8. Which video did you like best?
I liked the one the girl did about photoshop.
9. WHY did you like that video best?
It was entertaining and creative. It was also simple, which was nice, and the music was a nice touch.
10. Which did you like least?
The one with the guy who wanted to be a photographer.
11. WHY?
There was a lot of movement and he didn't show anything about himself. Plus it didn't make sense.

Promotional Video
o Who am I?
I'm Megan Raymond. I'm 16 years old, and a junior at La Conner High School.
o What are my work objectives or career plans?
My future is a clean slate. I would like to have a job where I make some pretty good money, get vacations and the chance to travel, and do something I love. I just don't know what that is yet.
o What are my education objective to reach that?
Well I am planning on graduating from high school. Then, I'd like to go to college, probably in California. In college I'll find out what I would really like to do, then decide if I'm going to continue in more schooling from then.
o What are my strengths as a student?
I always get my work done. I enjoy most subjects that I take. Math is interesting to me, and I work hard doing it. I also like writing and reading, as long as its subject is something that i find interesting.
o What is my work history and work strengths?
I've had summer jobs, including painting for Hedlund Builders and being an office assistant at Pransky and Associates. I work quickly, am organized, and handle problems calmly and efficiently.
o What awards have I gotten?
I've gotten varsity letters every year in all the sports I've played. I have first team honors for three years of soccer, and 2nd year honors from one year of basketball. I've had a 4.0 all through high school, so I've been on honor roll.
o What are my interests, hobbies, sports?
I love playing sports and exercising. I play basketball, soccer and run. I like baking, reading and spending time with my friends and family.
I don't have video clips of myself playing sports or working. I do have pictures of myself playing sports though. I could also put a picture of the barn that we painted when I worked for Hedlund Builders.
I'm not sure what the whole video is going to look like but I'll plan more out and let you know.

Persuasive Slide Show
Everyone should recycle. I'll put images of how much people in the U.S. waste that could be recycle, every day, week, etc. It'll be plastic, paper, metal, etc. I'll also put some images of landfills to show how big they are. I'll do some pictures of the environment, oceans and the air to show what we are harming by not recycling. I'll start with pretty pictures of the environment oceans and sky and say some good facts about the environment. Then, I'll show picture of the bad things (landfills, waste) and talk about how much we are wasting. Then I'll do some pictures of recycling plants and talk about how much we could be saving. Then end by doing a list of simple things to recycle, and finally a happy picture of the earth.
