          My name is Carey, and I am currently enrolled in AICE media studies. I am a sophomore. I am taking this course because I want to learn about filming in the industry. I believe later in life the information I learn in this course may be helpful for my career. I don’t wanna do filming specifically, however, the information and skills I learn from this course will be helpful in the long run.     In the long run, I believe this course is a asset to my future because of the skills I will learn how to display my creativity in a cohesive manner. Moreover, learning about how to display my creativity through film itself. Bringing in many different elements and ideas together into one single project teaches how to display different ideas you have in life. Overall, I believe this course will be incredibly beneficial in the long run.
