  1. What would you change if you had a chance to do this piece over again? 
- I would've done more pictures like the second one, I think it gave more of a dramatic flare, and I probably would've tried a much bigger space, but I was pretty limited at the time.
  1. What's the one thing that you have seen in your classmates' work or process that you would like to try in your next piece? 
- Using more Aesthetic Devices to portray a much clearer message in each of my photos
  1. What's one goal you would like to set for yourself for next time? 
- Possibly time split out or more time to capture my pictures and create a much more clear story that allows my audience to understand the flow of my story
  1. What things you might want more help with from the lecturer? 
- Teaching us ways to show things like sound or things that cant normally be depicted in just pictures, like methods that help better convey it
