During my A level course i have came across so many obstacles making me sometimes feel as if i should just give up. My group wasn't really working together since we have different ideas and thoughts on what we should do. Sometimes filming could also be a problem because it might not turn out the way we wanted it to be. However, the only way to overcome this obviously to talk about it and that was what we did. There will always be a way out through tough times. This allows us to keep working despite the difficulty.
2. Risk taking
Throughout my A level media course, i can truly say that i'm becoming more of a risk taker. By this i mean trying to do things i've never done before, filming in places i'd never thought of going, coming up with risky ideas that might not work. All these things have taught me that being risky isn't a bad thing but instead it provides us with experiences and mistakes we can learn from and apply what we've learnt to future tasks. By doing this, i am sure that i won't be regretting any of my choices because at least i gave it a try, and if i don't succeed , i know and try something better next time. I am well aware that sometimes it'll cost a lot in terms of my time but then at the end of the day if it works then it'll all be worth it.
3. Planning and Organizing
Organizing is one of the hardest skills to maintain and being consistent with the level of it. Believe it or not, this blog actually helped me a lot when it comes to finding work or even ideas that were long gone. Being organizing made me see how easy my life was, how quick i just get on with the tasks since all the resources i need is right there. Being organized is very essential as it allows me to reach my standard as to how much work i should be doing per day. With the resources provided from the school ( storyboards, calendar, each diving sheets) it made me more aware of what i should be doing and when i should be doing it. This means that if everything goes the way i wanted it to be, the final project will be up to the standards of our group.
4. Creativity
I never actually thought i'd be able to do this or get this far with my creativity. I wouldn't consider myself as someone who really does things in a way in which is different or that it has an abstract sense to it. Sometimes i really do find it hard to just let go and let my mind wander off, doing whatever that pops in my mind and JUST DO IT . However, this task enabled me to experience that and for me to actually think outside the box. I remember writing everything i possibly can think of down on paper , coming up with new ideas, so abstract i couldn't even understand it fully. This task made me realized how important it is to let go and how easy it is to do that. For me it's all about overcoming that fear of getting it wrong, or that fear of certain consequences or even the fear of not making the final project up to my own standards. I have learnt to take risks and that in the real world there is no right or wrong answer as long as it's from ur heart and that you believe in yourself.
