While working on setting up editing the CCR video footage, I decided to test out the editing software's capabilities. The software I decided to use was a free trial of Final Cut Pro, and I needed to check how it differed from the purchased version. How I decided to test it was to upload the file of the final project, even though that file didn't have exactly what I needed. But, to my surprise, when I uploaded the final project into Final Cut Pro the file had nothing missing! Before, the file was only audio but now the video was back! This meant that I could start working on the CCR immediately. But working on the CCR had already become more difficult with the start of a new online school week. Teachers have been assigning lots of work that's all due around the same time, so I've had less and less time to work on the CCR.
This shows how my own time management skills need to improve. So far, I have three ways to improve my working habits: an e-calendar, a physical planner, and setting myself a schedule. The e-calendar is to help me organize when everything is due. The app I use sends me reminders the day something is due so I won't forget. The physical planner I use to prioritize my work so I can get the most important things done first. Lastly, I have made myself a school day schedule so I can stay on task. I wake up at 7 and work until 10 before taking a break. Because of the transition from school to online that means there will be a significant learning curve I'll have to work on overcoming.
Additionally, I've gathered all past work I've completed in my AICE Media class to see how much I've improved. I will take these past projects and breakdown how I improved, and what areas I still see myself struggling in today.
