Improving the Journal

I think that my eight hours of work per week is pretty transparent throughout my journal. I make sure to very explicitly state what happens and my ideas about each weekly mentor meeting. I spend a lot of time journaling and I also have been continuing to research and find new pieces to inspire my work. This has been exemplified by my continued communication of videos I've been watching and information about how the technology I'm working with works.

Additionally, I usually post about the times I go out and film. I could probably be a bit more explicit with what happens when I edit, because the labeling and cutting and editing and sound work I'm doing takes a lot of time. Sometimes I'll spend two or three class periods in one day if I'm feeling particularly motivated. I can try to be more specific in future posts of what I'm doing while I'm editing, but it's pretty mundane and time consuming process. I'd rather blog about other things, but I also want my readers to know all the work I've been putting in.

Here are some spring blossoms on a tree in my backyard:
