Entry #2

My pitch is to start a cooking channel on Youtube that's by beginners, and for beginners.


My concern about my pitch is the the presentation. I'm not a very good public speaker and so, my presentation usually suffers a bit due to it.  I'm one of those people that either freeze or forget when speaking in front of people sometimes.  But obviously, this just means that I will have to practice a bit more and spend more time rehearsing this by myself. I'm also a bit worried if the class and Mrs. Weck will actually like the idea of the project. However, I'm hoping that this idea will be a success, even if I will have to make some minor tweaks to it.  Also, I'm hooping to work on this project with a partner *ahem Sarina ahem*. I think that a partner will make my project a lot easier.  It's quite hard to only film with one person.

Entry #1

I think that this project is actually really interesting, and is focused on both helping others and myself. Honestly, I thought that this project was going to be more free and concentrated on what I wanted to learn for just for myself, but now I can see that it is an opportunity to help others as well. I think it is time for me to think beyond myself and start giving back to the world, even if it is just some small little thing. This project has the possibility to reach hundreds and maybe even thousands of people due to the internet with what I have in mind.  I could teach people something that could be useful to them, even if it is just a little tip.  Anything that people could take away and use from my project would be considered a win for me, although I would obviously like it to be more than that.  To me, knowledge is one of the world's greatest gifts and with it, almost anything can be accomplished.  I hope to help some people accomplish some of their goals someday.
