While this piece was originally to be a written submission, I decided that although I enjoy writing fiction, I still wanted to deliver something realistic to my audience. Furthermore, I realized just how much I have changed over this past year and how many new experiences I’ve acquired. I guess I could say I had started to become curious of who I am and what that means. In order to share my experience I gathered all of the pictures I liked from this past year and uploaded it into a folder. After that I wrote a short monologue that really helped me plan out what exactly I wanted to mention and what I wanted the order to be. It essentially helped me organize the project and put it together. After writing the short monologue I recorded my own narration using what I had written and edited it on an editing app. I then applied the photos and videos to match the voice recording. I also included transitions and music to help level up the piece as much as I could and also reflect my tone and what I was delivering.
