My senior project is a continuation of my junior project, Sunshine Today. Sunshine Today is a podcast that I started last year with Anu, where the goal is to spread positivity, provide entertainment, and bring awareness to mental health. For my senior project, I’ve been producing a second season of Sunshine Today with the same values as before.
The 21st Century Skill that I associate with this project is Self-Directional Skills. I have to keep myself on task in order to complete my senior project, and all the pre-production, production, and post production for Sunshine Today is done by myself. The first quarter of the school year was hard, because I was only able to produce one episode. I’ve just completed my second episode, and I’m now getting back into a good working rhythm.
I’m proud of this project because I’ve been able to accomplish my goal of making the episodes shorter. I’m seeing a major improvement in quality, as the episodes are scripted rather than outlined, and by making them shorter, my audience is able to listen to them in a multitude of scenarios, like in the car, or on a lunch break.
The most difficult part of this assignment is finding time to work on it. I’m taking two college classes this semester, and applying to colleges, so I find it hard to find time to work on my senior project. A way that I can fix that is to set aside a certain amount of time that’s dedicated to working on my senior project. Even a half hour will make progress on my project.
