Mission 1

Creativity

Reflection

Looking back on this project i would say I am quite happy with the outcome. I went into this project very nervous as it was the first group project of the year. I tried my best to keep an open mind through the nerves at the beginning. I soon realized there wasn't actually much to be afraid of. At first i was very nervous of having to work with people i didn't know but thankfully i ended up in a group with two people who were so nice and easy to work with. Splitting the workload evenly was something that made the experience a lot more comforting aswell, knowing i had as much a part to play as the others and that if i needed help they were there to work with.

I really enjoyed making the podcast and found it extremely interesting getting to understand the behind the scenes of how a podcast is recorded and edited. If I was to do a podcast again in the future, which hopefully I will, I would like to do it with a better production, I would use a professional microphone (or multiple if possible) and i would like to do more editing on it now that i have more experience. I would like to use more sound effects and music to enhance the podcast some more as i feel it engages the listener better than just talking.

I feel that the grade we got was accurate considering it was our first assignment. I will admit we could have made it better if we had really pushed ourselves further although i am still very proud of the work we created which is why I think the grade satisfactory is deserved. During the presentation I did notice myself stutter and fumble over my words quite a lot and i was speaking very fast. This was of course because of the nerves with this being the first presentation I had done, I am a fairly shy person and public speaking and presenting has always been something that scared me but now that i have gotten my first presentation out of the way I am genuinely really excited to work on this and improve with the next missions.

Overall I feel that we were successful in completing this mission. We achieved all of our goals that we had set out in the beginning, we successfully recorded and edited our very own podcast and we created a power point presentation with all of the information we had gathered. I am very happy with how this project went and i understand now where i can improve in my next assignment and I am really looking forward to getting started on mission 2.

Thanks for reading :)

Mission 2 Internet Of Things{reflection}

Mission 2 Culture Reflection Personally i believe this project was a success. We achieved our goals which we had set out in the beginning, we created a power point presentation, we conducted a survey and compiled our resulted into a visual representation, we made a list of IoT devices and represented this on an infographic, we learned about the evolution of IoT along with its safety issues and we also took a look at where IoT will continue to grow and develop over the coming years. We were not able to meet up as a whole group as much s we would have liked due to us all living so far away from each other however this problem was made a little bit easier when one of my team mates introduced the idea of using google slides to make the presentation. This meant that we were all able to edit and look at the slides separately and allowed for us not being able to meet as often. One of the group members thankfully was more experienced in using spreadsheets and creating different cha

Mission 2 Internet Of Things {Product}

Mission 2 Culture Product The product of this mission was mainly the power point presentation itself because although we did our own survey we did have to represent the data we collected in the power point. The power point began with a list of Internet Of Things devices which we compiled and then laid it out in a more aesthetically pleasing format. We made sure to include both everyday household devices and also more industrial devices to really show the range of IoT devices that are available. We did this by searching for a template that we liked and then inserting the names of IoT devices we found, each with a small image because we wanted to give visual aids as to keep it interesting. I conducted a survey to find out how many IoT devices people have in their homes and what those devices are. Originally we thought asking people individually would get us quicker responses and be easier, we later realized it would have been more efficient to use a survey making website for this

Mission 3 Image Visualization{reflection}

Mission 3 Methodology Reflection I believe this mission was a success. We were able to hit all of the goals that had set for ourselves and everything in the mission brief. I really enjoyed this mission because it was so different to the others we have done previously. I loved getting the opportunity to develop my editing skills (which are still not great but have improved) and this has genuinely given me a new interest in editing. Its now something that i would consider messing around with in my spare time just to see what im capable of and how much i can improve. If I was to do this project again i would have liked to maybe get some real life clips recorded and put into the video just to break up all of the screenshots and screen recording and just bring some life back into the video. I think this would have not only been more interesting to the viewers but also would have given us more opportunity to actually get to play around with premiere pro and be more creative in cre
