Unit 1: Personal Journal Part 3-simulated work experience

At the beginning of this group project, I was assigned to create a ten-second shot based on the storyboard. However, I quickly realized that this task was not as simple as it seemed. The storyboard provided by our teammates was quite rough and difficult to interpret. Additionally, we did not fully understand the story, which made it even harder to visualize the scene. Since we were given creative freedom, we struggled to produce anything concrete.

As the team attempted to communicate, our teammates eventually realized that their initial expectations were difficult for us to fulfill. As a result, they changed our task to conducting research instead. However, after completing the research, we did not receive any feedback or further instructions.

Through this group experience, I did not necessarily gain new technical skills, but I did learn the importance of communication in teamwork. A group leader should guide the team towards understanding the project and its vision rather than leaving everything open-ended with minimal guidance. Without clear communication, the team can easily become lost, leading to inefficiency and confusion
