Personal Reflection On Group Groups

The team of four that I decided to work with were Abby R, Ben, and Emily T. Overall, I liked my choice of group members. We all got along pretty well with each other, and it helped that I knew Abby and Ben on a personal level. This allowed us to get together at each other’s houses, and work together on the project. This allowed for a much easier collaborative environment, and it also allowed us to collaborate on everything together, instead of one person being assigned one part, and the other person another. I feel like this was a much easier way of creating the presentation, rather than having everybody independent of each other. When a group works like that, the ideas can’t be spread around as well, and you’re left with a narrow point of …show more content…
Our film had a clear and interesting purpose, it flowed pretty easily and was easy to understand. There were parts where it could have been confusing but overall was good. The information that we found was accurate, and the primary and secondary sources were cited in our credit role. I feel like the information that we used from our interviews was strong. They helped relay the essential questions that we were asking the audience, and provided evidence to support those questions. I feel like our visual variety and pacing was okay. We could’ve done more with music, videos, and images, but overall it was pretty good. There weren’t any moments where someone was talking for too long and the pictures that we displayed transitioned at a good speed. We also could’ve done more with effects and not make it distracting. There were a couple instances where our narration was bad, but for the most part, I thought we did pretty good in that aspect. We could have tried to eliminate background noise when making the project, but almost all of our applicants were audible and understood properly. I thought our conclusion was the strongest part of the presentation. I feel like it ended very well, and left the audience thinking a little bit. Our credit role had all of the correct components to it. Finally, our presentation didn’t have any spelling or grammatical errors, and the creativity of the project was pretty good. I would say it wasn’t the best, but it was decent. We could’ve been a little more creative, but I don’t think it was bland at all. All in all, I thought this was a pretty good presentation. We had a lot of strong points, and a couple weaknesses, those being our conclusion, interviews, and narrations being strong within the documentary, and our downfalls being a little difficult to follow at times, background noise, and a little lack of creativity.
