My Mind Is Growing Faster Than Me

Having a growth mindset isn’t all that easy, but it can be. Prior to the last 2 or 3 months I didn’t really have a growth mindset for most things, and it’s not that I didn’t realize and want to change that, it’s that I didn’t know how to. However, in the process of learning…

2016 Was Only Practice

For most, looking back on the year 2016 is disappointing, a year that we wish we could have skipped. Beginning with the death of music legend David Bowie and book-ended with Carrie Fisher, 2016 seemed pretty bad from start to finish. The thing is though, for all we know, 2017 may be just as bad….

Camera Angles Comic

I had fun with this little project. I enjoy photo/videography so this was cool. We learned about 6 different camera angles that were used in film-making. Our teacher Mr. Featherstone then took the class outside and gave us the rundown of what we were going to do. Half of the class would play a game…
