Interviewing:
Interviews were filmed slightly far from the subjects leaving too much headspace. Lighting was okay, it could've been better. Setting was off, the two interviews were too similar which allowed them to be more as one instead as two. Besides that, the questions allowed well-elaborated answers.
As a subject, I realized during editing that being interviewed and sharing personal aspects of my life makes me uncomfortable. This is a lesson learned, as I cannot be a creator and subject of a project, It's not impossible, I'm just not comfortable being both, especially if I have to share with the class. Day two of critiquing, I skipped the class. (I'm sorry, Mrs. Stoklosa) I couldn't be there, I was so anxious of my peers seeing my personal life and afraid of their judgement. I didn't mind them critiquing my project but my life is too much. Not that they did critique my life. Nonetheless, I couldn't risk it. I felt my stomach churn, my heart sink, and my throat close up at the mere thought of being in the same room as my peers while they watch my life and silently judge. So I just didn't go.
Despite my absence, I read the critiques on my project. I'm glad to say I hadn't seen anyone cruel enough to critique my personal life...yet. I found the critiques useful and reassuring.
