Class presentations
Spent the past few days getting our sketches ready for Project Three, and now the day of our presentation is finally here!
Reporting
Since we had only 10-12 minutes to presents, Jia Jia and I decided to present only four out of ten of our sketches, which turned out to be a good idea. If we were to do more – as in our the presentation for the previous project – I’m pretty sure we’d be rushing through the whole thing. We presented the four that we might to pursue in the final project, in hopes of getting better insight on which one(s) we would present to the panel the following Monday. As we were running quite short on time, we didn’t get to hear much feedback from the class. However, Seth did give a good suggestion which we happened to miss out on, which is to elaborate on how we got to the whole topic of travel video reviews. Overall a decent presentation, in my opinion. I also really enjoyed listening to all my classmates’ ideas. It’s so refreshing to see just how much potential online video has, and the various ways in which it can be put forward to its audiences.
Relating
I really liked the fact that we were able to first present to our class before proceeding to facing the panel on Monday. I do remember a time when Jia Jia and I did not get to present due to the lack of time. We couldn’t get any criticism nor comments, and that made coming up with ideas a little more difficult.
Reasoning
I have come to realise the importance of consulting your lecturer and peers – that sometimes it is necessary to first go through them before you proceed to improving a certain thing, as they would be able to notice your mistakes better than you, and give you suggestions that you may not have thought of.
Reconstructing
Based on the comments that were given today, Jia Jia and I plan to pick two to present this Monday. We also plan to better our presentation such that we will come up with a clearer explanation for the entire project as well as make some slides to present to the panel.
