Overall, this unit was a fun and interesting unit that kept me going. Through this unit I got the experience of filming an entrance video and what to say. I got to learn about myself as well; I got to see what different jobs that fits me the best. There were several results such as a shampooer, veterinarian, and patisserie and so on...
In my opinion I think for me this unit was a success because I had all the things I needed in order to make an entrance video and I had completed it. Although there were some troubles on the way I had overcome them and finished my task.
Investigation:
I had to write about the things I liked and the things I enjoyed. After investigating and writing about me, I had to go online to the specific site and look at the different jobs that were suitable and had to choose a job. I ended up choosing what I wanted from the beginning. I chose my career job as becoming a veterinarian. After choosing my career job I had to do more research on that specific job. I looked up which schools provided a veterinary education and chose a university. I also looked up the incomes and how much I would get paid. Through investigation I got to learn more about what it becomes to be a veterinarian and what I have to do. It was a good experience for me. If I was to improve my criterion A. I would have done more research on more schools and how much their tuition. If I had done more specific research I would have gotten more information and would have added it on the video.
Design:
For design we had to explain why we chose the job we chose and background information on it. I said I chose becoming a veterinarian because I wanted to cure sick animals and help them. I personally love all animals but I do favour some more than others but every time I heard about animal cruelty I wanted to make a change. It might not be that when I grow up I would be a veterinarian but it’s definitely on my list of choices. Suggestions for this step would be that if I had described more in detail why and how I wanted to become a veterinarian it might have bumped my grade to a higher mark.
Create:
The create part was the most tiring process. The part when I wrote the speech was fun because I got to write down what I had learned but when it came to the part of making the video, it was tiring. I had filmed it more than 5-6 times. I first filmed it at home but it didn’t end up being so good so I filmed it at school and then I filmed it more at home. I wanted to complete the video within one full video but it was hard. My words weren’t clear enough or I wasn’t loud enough. This was a tough job and since I was doing it all alone it made it harder. The speech and what I was going to say didn’t matter because I had already gathered all the information but when it came to filming it, although I was alone I got nervous and started to babble. If I were to fix it or improve it I would have memorized my speech and would have said it slowly. Also I would have asked someone to help me at home. At school Aiste had helped me film it.
The product is fairly good because I spent my time on it. I had worked with Movie Maker and studied the different effects. Although I had used it before I had forgot but after this project it refreshed my mind. I’m not sure if my video was persuasive enough or not but I did have all the information that was needed. I had the mentioned the requirements, skills and interests, training and experiences. I had all the information the video asked for. Aiste had seen my outline of the video since she helped me film it. She said that I needed to look more into the camera rather then the paper. She said that I had all the necessary information and that it was good. Although there were still some parts to fix, so after listening to her advice I went home and did and tried as she suggested.
I think throughout the year, this was the most fun unit. It had given me the chance to learn more about myself and research on what I wanted to become. Who knows this might even help me in the future of becoming a veterinarian.

Filming a university entrance video
Filming a university entrance video (Rebekah Shin)
What I should include;
1. Future Career Goal- to become a veterinarian
2. Qualifications- I have worked as an intern in Mongolia. Throughout my school years I had high grades mostly in the areas of math and science which is essential in order to become a veterinarian.
3. Educational Background- I’m a graduate student from ISU and IB school. I have studied about being a veterinarian and had experiences and training.
4. Extra-curricular activities- I work at a vet shop in Mongolia and help get the stray dogs out of the streets and find them a home
5. Volunteer work- Every Saturdays and Sundays I go out and work with the other veterinarians and cure animals without getting paid
6. What makes me so special- I have the experience with dogs and when my pet dog, Darong goes to the vet I go with him and observe. I also have strong affections towards animals and I feel the need to help these animals in the streets of Mongolia and everywhere in the world
The task of a veterinarian;
The task of this job is simple; you just have to make quick decisions when sick animals come to you. You have to cure them and although it can be hard and difficult. This job is for real animal lovers. Personally I really love animals but sometimes they can be very irking but in the end they are so adorable and cute.
This job also requires facility check and home check of these animals. On what I read it says that you have to check these animals’ homes and see if it’s clean and if the animal is being treated correctly.
Design your video:
Where you should film it
Around the couch area where it looks fairly formal and neat OR at home downstairs where the couches are
What you’ll wear
I will be wearing just normal clothes (jeans and a shirt) I chose to just wear comfortable clothing because this is a video that I should feel comfortable in and a video I should be able to express what I feel and my personality. I want my video to be simple and not too flashy and intense
What you should include (what you will say)
I will include a video of my 2 dogs to show how I love animals. I will be talking mostly about what the job does and why I want to become a veterinarian
Who will film it for you?
My one of my friends if they have time or my sister when I get home
What program you’ll use to edit it
I will edit the video on Windows Movie Maker
Background music, if any
Yes, I’m going to play a background movie while playing the video of the 2 dogs.

If I want to become a veterinarian I need to also learn and study mathematics, science, time management and speaking and etc… This job requires a lot of skills and knowledge. Although it is going to be tough trying to cure animals but if they end up dying it’s going to be really heartbreaking.

Investigation continued...
Investigation continued…
Soccer would be one interest. I liked soccer or began to like it when I was in 7th grade. Being away at ACAMIS with my friends and playing soccer was trememdous fun. Not only did I get to meet new friends and people we came in 2nd place which was a great memory. Another interest would be basketball. Despite the fact of my short height I enjoy playing basketball. No matter how much fun it was there were some difficult offers given such as; becoming fit and exercising more often. Another challenge was that I had to play amongst those who were bigger and better than me and try my best to stand out and play my best. The most important skill is to stay fit or become fitter and also to not eat junk food at all. Also in order to continue playing it I need to practice to get better.
Consider your skills
At school I do volunteer work such as orphanage and other days where we sweep up the field and etc… Although they’re not easy jobs they’re still very fun and I tend to learn more from it. After starting to work and play with the orphans I found out that they are sweet little kids who are very adorable and kind. I used to be afraid of orphans because of watching a scary movie at a young age of a disabled killing people. Now, I’m not afraid I’ve learned that no one is like that and instead they’re all very kind and cute. If I have a free time I tend to spend it with my friends and also tend to spend it by planning things such as what I want to do that day and etc… From experience I found out that planning ahead is always good and keeps you on track and makes things much easier. I usually plan or jot down things that I have to do it makes my day easier because it is all written down.
List or clubs I have belonged to;
1. Soccer
2. Basketball
3. Volleyball
4. Fabric collage
5. Orphanage
6. Jogging for fun
Volunteer work;
1. Sweep up the soccer field
2. Run 4 water
3. Clean up day
4. Talent show
After assessing my interests and skills I think that my possible careers are in the line of sports. Although in real life I don’t want to be sports star or anything. My dream job is to become a veternarian and help those who can’t talk. I want to also become an animal police that gets all the stray animals in the streets in a family that cares and loves it. Also by becoming a police I want to take and sue those who hurt animals violently and cruely. As you can infer I love animals. They’re the sweetest and the most adorable things in the whole-wide world. They’re very affectionate and i abhor those who torture them. I also want to become a baker and bake delicious goodies. I want to enjoy life when I grow up and live on my own. Instead of working under someone my whole life I want to start a buissness and be sucessful.
