Free State Free Press Critique.

One thing I really liked was how they talked about Christmas coming up. I really enjoy Christmas (not only because of the presents) but because it's an awesome time to experience all the beautiful snow. And the report really got me excited for this upcoming winter season.

I think they could improve on when they talked about the music here at Free State. They spell Jon Fitzgerald's name two different ways. Maybe they could actually ask him how he spells his name.

1 in 1000 project questions.

1. What did you most like about this project and why?
-I really liked getting to know Grace a lot better, and seeing how good of a volleyball player she is. I also really liked the interview because there were multiple moments when I would ask her a serious question and it turned out to be a laughing matter. It was a very fun experience!

2. What challenges did you face?
-Some of the challenges I faced were when I coached her to speak in complete sentences but the audio came out and there were a couple responses that were not complete. Another challenge was the pictures I took because volleyball players don't stand still very well when playing. They obviously move around a lot.

3. What is something you would change if you cold do the project again?
-I would definitely change my audio and try and get a better recording than what I did. I also would take more in-focus pictures and maybe take some of when she wasn't at practice. I also would have asked her for some of her pictures from when she was younger while playing volleyball.

Overall, I really liked the project even though it was very difficult to fit a time in that worked well for me, and for her.
