Q: Evaluate the PSA project unit --- what did you learn? What helped you to learn? What was the most challenging aspect of this unit? How could the unit be improved?
A: Overall, I would give the PSA project a solid 9 on a scale of 1-10. It was a fun unit, yet also required a lot of thinking and effort to complete. I learned about what exactly a PSA is, what makes a PSA successful, how to make a storyboard, how to make a pitch for an idea, and many more tips on filming and editing. Alex and John were helpful in the beginning stages of the unit (the pitch, the storyboard), and really got us off to a good start, which in turn made the rest of the project a lot easier. The most challenging aspect of this unit was meeting the length requirement for the PSA, which we didn't exactly meet with our final draft. We basically had too much important footage to cut down to 90 seconds, and ending up being around two minutes. Not too far over, but still not at the original goal. This unit could be improved by maybe bumping that length requirement to around the two-minute mark, but it's all good, since you still accepted our final draft.
