 My group and I have landed on 2 different pitches for our commercial, and have chosen which we will be going with. Pitch 1:  Scene opens with a man running down a road/beach, looking clearly exhausted, breathing heavily with sounds of his heart beating quickly, he pulls out a Gatorade and takes a sip, hoping to rehydrate himself, but instead collapses. Others running see and help him up, handing him a Powerade and saying something along the lines of, "Here, drink this". The runner who collapsed has a quick beating heart, which can be heard, and as he takes a sip the beating quiets and slows down, and he says something along the lines of  "Ooh, I feel great".

Soon, my group and I will be starting to do our commercial; the filming, acting, props, editing, and sounds. I am looking forward to this project, not just because it seems like a fun assignment, but because of the people that I will be completing this project with. Most of my group is other 10th graders, Ben and Cannon, but there is one senior, and his name is Carson. To start, there's many reasons I am working with Carson, one of them being the fact that he is one of my friends older brother and my friend. This is my first class with Carson, and seeing how he pays attention, is respectful, is smarter than me and has much more experience in basically everything, he is a great addition to the group. I can't wait to see what ideas Carson brings, and can't wait to put this commercial together with him. Another group member I'm working with is Ben, I was introduced to Ben freshman year, and for the first quarter of the year, I didn't really talk to him. We went to diff...

A Little Bit About Me

Hi, my name is Albi, I'm in the 10th grade, enrolled at Fort Lauderdale High, in the Cambridge AICE program. I am also an immigrant, being born in  Korçë , Albania and then moving when I was almost 2 years old. I wasn't old enough to truly remember anything from when I was 2 years old in the mountains, but I am fortunate enough to be able to visit almost every summer. I'm 15 years old, and will be turning 16 in March, where I will hopefully pass my drivers test first try and finally get the license I have been wanting since the 3rd grade. For as long as I can remember I have always wanted to drive, and for no particular reason; I just have the urge to drive. I also like taking pictures, but I wouldn't call it photography, more just taking pictures of nice things I see, if there's a sunset, I'm taking a picture, a man proposing, I'm taking a picture, a stray cat, I'm taking a picture. While I have my hobbies, I also have my responsibilities, responsibilit...
