Group Blog

  Today, I will be discussing my Final Task. On this project, I decided to work with my friend Lincoln Rodgers. I chose to work with Lincoln for a multitude of reasons. To begin with, I have known Lincoln for over a year, and during that time period, we have gotten very, very close. He and I have worked on other projects together and have been very successful on them, so I don't see how this one could be any different. We also have other classes together, meaning we can collaborate outside of Media Studies if we have any free time. I always feel as if Lincoln and I are on the same page when it comes to getting work done, and that can be very beneficial. I trust him a lot with his judgment when it comes to how we are going to get stuff done, and without trust in your group partner, you won't be able to go far. Lincoln can help benefit the project by using his amazing editing skills to take the Final Task we have filmed and make it into something special. He is very intelligent when it comes to cyber editing and making things look appealing, which I am not good at. When you pair up his editing skills with my creativity and thought process, we can really make this a great Final Task. Lincoln and I have been on the same page and will continue to be on the same page throughout the entire blog. The positives of working together will be that we can collaborate, and we aren't just solo. We both excel in the academic realm, and we know what we are getting ourselves into. If we ever got into a disagreement, I am positive that we are able to come together and find the best solution possible that will benefit the both of us. He has experience in doing these types of projects as well, which means he can even teach me on the right way to do these things. All of these reasons are why I decided to work with a partner, because I love to be around others and learn from other people. I would rather be taught a valid way to complete this Final Task from Lincoln than wrap myself up in a bubble by myself and just do it how I want to without any other feedback. All in all, I am very confident in my team's ability to work hard and complete this essay. The following reasons above have clearly proved that, and I cannot wait to continue on with these blogs and share our wonderful ideas!
