20 Time Final Post

        The end is here! After roughly four months of work, I have completed my 20 Time project. Though the final product definitely diverged from what I initially imagined due to various factors, I can definitely say that I am satisfied with my work. For a more detailed reflection and additional information, see this post.
        Overall, I accomplished what I set as a goal: create a video series highlighting a topic biology class often do not cover thoroughly in order to supplement and enrich learning: the vast history of the Earth. Since the release of my initial drafts after compiling, editing, and recording, I have refined the audio and video quality, as well as uploaded the final products to youtube. In addition, I created a trailer to help publicize the videos and spread them as a learning tool. The playlist of videos (a series trailer and 4 parts) is embedded below: take a look!
        To evaluate my work, I definitely believe I achieved a satisfactory final product, and I would probably give myself an A on the traditional letter grading scale (i.e. A, B, C, D, F). Not only did I utilize my time effectively throughout the process, overcoming several obstacles and continuing to polish and produce to the very end, (details and evidence here, also see previous blog posts for updates of progression) I also adapted and set my goals along the way, creating new ones as I achieved previous ones. In this manner, I was able to accomplish what I have and reach my final destination regardless of what stood in my way.
