Facebook Live

So this week I did an interview on Facebook Live.

All I can say about that is 😡😩😬

I am friends with the owner of U Top It frozen yogurt up in Orchard Mesa. She agreed to take some time to meet with me and let me interview her over Facebook live. I wrote up my questions, got there in time, connected to they wifi, blah, blah, blah.

I made sure the WiFi was working

I checked.

I checked again.

It was good.

I got on Facebook, pulled up live, and we started.

Good questions, good conversation.

We got about 8 minutes in.

It crashed.

It saved less than two minutes of my interview.

I now am super upset about it.

She runs her business by herself and had to get back to work, so I was not able to recover that time that was lost. We went through my questions again, in a quicker fashion.

This photo was taken while we were interviewing though, so that is nice.

This may have turned me off from live forever, or at least for awhile to sound less dramatic about it. 😂

Virtual Reality

Virtual reality was the topic of the week this week. I had never worked with this before and I find it fascinating! When I thought about virtual reality I always associated it with gaming. I had seen those commercials on TV with people staring into a small box holding their phone, freaking out about how "cool" or "awesome" something was. To be honest, it is a bit ridiculous watching someone with those, since you cannot see what they are seeing. When our professor brought some to class and I took a look I understood why people thought it was so cool. Looking through those and being able to turn one way and another, with the image changing, is pretty cool! Then, today in class, a fellow student showed us what they use virtual reality for. They have a camera at her work which makes online 3D models of houses which are being sold so you can take a virtual tour. I had never stopped to think about how those online 3D models are made. Listening to her explain the wor...

Final Class

Well, today was the final day of my Emerging Media class. It has been one of my best classes in my long, long college career so I am a bit bummed that it is over. It is exciting to be done with the semester though (almost)! Only one semester left and then done!! This class helped me learn a lot about social media. I had been boycotting hashtags heavily since I first saw them. I still don't use them on a daily basis, however, I now see that there is a point to them. I think I will forever be irritated by people who use 20 on one post on Facebook, but when used for their intended purpose I think they are very helpful. I'm still not a big fan of Twitter, however, Instagram has grown on me. I think I will continue to use that. I like the shorter format with more graphics than words. This class also helped me realize that, though I do love to bake, it will stay a hobby. I have had people suggest turning it into a business and I have considered that from time to time. Being in ...

Finals baking
