Entry #19: Creative Critical...


Mood: Bittersweet




... Reflection. I couldn't bear to ruin the theme that I've been using for my titles; the alliteration is a part of my soul now.   

Anyhow, my CCR is here! Additionally, this is my last blog post. :( I remember that when this project was first assigned, I was slightly annoyed that I would have to document my entire process of producing Borderline; however, looking back at it and reading my posts, I am so glad that I did. This project was one of the most rewarding things I have ever done, and I'm so grateful for it. Not only was this project extremely fun to do, but it was a learning experience. I learned about myself, others, and media in one in-depth project. I could not ask for more out of any "assignment."

This project required a large amount of dedication and hard work, and I'm so proud that I did it, but I am happy to have a small break. This last entry is bittersweet for me because, after 6 weeks, this project feels like a part of me, which I guess it is in a way.

But, this is not the end; you will see me and my work next year in AICE Media Studies A Level, so there is that to look forward to. Thank you for accompanying me on my exploration of media, as well as of myself. Please be sure to check your settings to ensure that you're watching this video at the highest quality!

Have a FANTASTIC day!
