Having hated group work in high school, I feared that the collaboration so vital to the film world would be an issue for me. After taking this class however, I have grown tremendously in the confidence I have in my abilities to organize and work with people. I have strengthened my work ethic and have improved my organization overall, which I've found is increasingly important when you're managing the schedules and responsibilities of others as well. I learned about myself as a filmmaker that I enjoy just going to a location with my camera and seeing what I can make out of it as a cinematography/editing exercise. I also discovered that the people you work with has a tremendous effect on the final product, and I've been thankful not to have any group catastrophes and to have had four happy working experiences with every group in this course.
