Final Project

My plan is to make a "mockumentary" on myself, by myself...for myself, hah nah for real I'm not that egotistical im way too good to be egotistical. But I do have a great idea for a mockumentary....which would be structured like a serious documentary and i plan on being dead serious but with intent to create laughter. I run a small business cleaning out waterless composting toilets for beach cottages. I have over 15 regular customers and I am going to make the video as if a news channel was doing a showcase on me...except it is going to myself doing a showcase on me. I plan on submitting this video to Mike Rowe after the class with hopes to get on Dirty jobs

ireport!

This is found horrendous, I can not imagine ever doing something like that in a kitchen or more so in front of the camera! These two numb-skulls will surely lose their jobs, and will todays economy not the best idea to put things in your nose! especially other peoples food, from a journalism standpoint the video was horrible, this is a video that would accidently uploaded, or a hidden camera, I can not believe that this person actually put this video online, It has only been up there for about 40 minutes and I wouldn't be surprised if CNN did air this, because the public loves to be grossed out. I would certainly edit it down to a couple soundbites and the close-up of the dummy sticking the piece of cheese up his nose.



I would definitely put this on the air, even though he talks to us and an almost insulting slow mono-tone I feel this would envoke some great discussion, so if in the studio we happen to have a a panel of experts and maybe an IRS agent talking about Doc's situation and the many people who find themselves in similar situations(and the fact that he titled in "aint afriad a no IRS" I would love to hear some white stiff anchor intro with that






Turns out this guy has had a few videos posted on CNN already, He talks up his point and uses some very strong language, which is why it would make good television. The great thing about television is that is dose not have to be politically correct to be aired, people love to argue, even when they really don't know what they are talking about for instance this guy does not know all the facts but he does have an opinion and that is what is great about today, because he/she/I/they/we can broadcast this opinion across the world...for free

SLIPPIDITY SLIDE

This was a great slide show i really liked the pics that were sequences of a single wave. The written captions were priceless in my opinion

from moving water to frozen water

This was a cool slide show because it was from killington VT awesome snowboarders! but....the photos lacked varaibility, most were taken from same standpoint. I would have liked to see more pictures of some of the other features that the competeitors had to hit not just the big booter jumps(which were sick)

Podcast critique

I have been aware of the existence of podcasts for quite some time, but only recently have I actually listened to one of them, and now actually on a regular basis. This being Joshua B's Reggae Rhythm Update, i stumbled upon this podcast while searching for new reggae music now with over 2 years of archived shows that tops 60 shows.(I'm so happy abut this podcast I already have it on my blog under *reggae beats!*) The producer/DJ puts out his podcast from his "golden touch studio" which is a spare bedroom in his apartment. I've listened to many of his archived shows and with my newfound interest in his podcast i decided that some day i should create a podcast of my own. With assignment being to find and critique 3 podcasts over break, i was lucky that i had already followed one, but needed to find others. So i googled popular podcasts which i felt would direct me to some credible podcasts. I found the ESPN radio most imformative, and very helpful for keeping up to-date on sports, if only I truly cared about being up-date on sports. I continued my search and found more reggae! a podcast called Reggae Flow which was very cool because it's origin is in Brazil, so it was cool to hear what reggae they listen to/ don't listen to. I will surely make it a point to listen to Reggae Flow regularly and maybe find some more reggae podcasts.
