Blog 15: Independent Component 2 Approval

Independent Component

Content:

  1. For my second Independent Component I would like to continue my documentary. It was approved by the Senior Team/Teachers that I would complete my first Independent Component by February 20. I had a discussion with Mr.Rivas and Mrs.Ortega about splitting my first Independent Component(IC) in  half. Since I am attempting to create a documentary, the first  IC would be interviewing and filming people. The second IC would consist of actually editing the interviews, shooting filler shots, watching documentaries to notice their methods of editing and storyline and reading books about how to create an actually documentary. To ensure that my documentary is the best that it can be, I can show a rough draft of my full documentary to the class, my peers, professionals, etc. and have them fill out a survey accommodations and recommendations of my film.
  2. Because the second IC is only editing film, shooting transition shots, and reading books on documentaries I believe that I can, a) give little snippets of completely edited scenes of my documentary, b) I can make a month's extra blog post about a book I read on how to create a documentary or actually watch a documentary and use the extra blog post of the month to explain their methods of storyline and editing, c) I can present actual tangible evidence of the surveys that the class, my peers, professionals, etc have filled out with accommodations and recommendations. 
  3. With this component, I am able to have a clear and concise representation of my second answer for my EQ. My EQ is : What is the most effective support for underprivileged youth to break the poverty cycle? This Independent Component will be a finished product of the hours of research it took to find my second answer. This IC, focuses on finding the driving force between youth who have intrinsic or extrinsic motivation to succeed or look towards success in life. Success is relative, but for my IC, success is being able to break the poverty cycle.
