Once we picked out three topics, I was happy to see that we would get to select which topic or group we wanted to join. I had zero interest in the conservation topic, but right away found interest in our healthy eating on campus group. It was nice to work with people who cared about the topic, so I was glad we got to choose our group. Before production even started, I did not like the idea that the groups who goes first and second would get extra credit, because in the end they got more time to edit their project, which is mostly what our grade reflects anyway. So we ended up going third, with no extra credit, and also had the least amount of time to do our editing in post-producion.
When the groups split up and we started working closer with our other team members, we were able to quickly divide the work and establish who was going to handle what. However, what I really liked about our group was how well we utilized the discussion board. We all checked in on the discussion form at least once every 2 days or so. It also helped us step-up and help a person out if they were struggling with their contact for the show. During production I also I enjoyed that we got to pick our jobs during the shoot and call all the shots. I enjoyed being floor manager because I got to work with the guests along with the people in the booth.
In post-production I didn't like that we were in charge of doing the editing. Before the assignment was given we could chose to either be with a team and do a show or help with post-production. However, in the end there was no one to do post-production so the groups were in charge of it. We only had one person who was able to do the job on our team which left him to do it by himself. Overall, I think everything worked well for our group and we did a great job making everything work for everyone involved.
