Onward!

My video midterm is basically about commuters vs. residents. It's about the students opinions on if they'd rather be a commuter or a resident and the pros and cons of which they picked. I chose this topic because I want to show people that you don't have to live on campus, there's always a choice and you could still have fun! This topic will be helpful to first year students because it shows them the pros and cons of both sides. When I first heard about college all I heard was people basically living on campus while going to school, what if you didn't want to live there or couldn't afford it or whatever the case may be. I haven't heard of commuting until I asked around about it. I thought that I'd be the only commuter alive but it turns out to be a lot of commuters by train or car or however they get there. For my teacher, I asked the same question but in a different way, because the teacher really doesn't get the option of being a resident and living on campus lol and I'm pretty sure some teachers don't even know if their students are residents or not so they really wouldn't have a opinion on rather if its easier to have all commuter students or just all resident students. I tried not to be biased in this interview, getting both answers from residents and commuters. So far making a video is pretty hard, you try to think of ways to keep the viewers attention on the information without having huge distractions in the background. You also don't want to bore your audience because then they wouldn't get the point of what you have been saying. Also five minutes is way longer than I expected. Hopefully my video comes out satisfactory because this is not my speciality.
