The first of these assignments was to take five photographs, each with a different purpose and focus. The different shots we needed to take were of a group of people in action, a group of people posed, a long shot of a location, a close up of that same location, and a self portrait of you in front of that place. I had a lot of fun not only taking the pictures, but deciding where and what I wanted to photograph. Although they're quite simple, I am happy with my results for this project.

Another project that our class was assigned was the create a video between 30 and 60 seconds long, depicting some aspect of St. John's according to the rules regulated in the Capture the Storm video contest.
Once again I really enjoyed this project and planning the various scenes I recorded. It was also my first time working with iMovie, a movie-making program that comes on Mac computers. Editing the different clips and adding music and sound effects turned into a marathon activity, taking over 4 hours, but I am extremely happy with the overall result.
My video highlights the different aspects of St. John's University that I love and how it has many things to offer to all of its students.
