Weekly Review 2

Weekly Review 2: This week was much busier than my first week. After I had recovered from surgery. I got straight back to work. I worked on a multitude of things throughout the week. Such as my Canva designs. Film study and breakdowns. My 3-page paper. As well as my slideshow for Wednesday’s presentations! Overall a much better and more productive week than week one!

    I got most of my first Canva design done and finalized the 2nd one on May 23rd. I also got only around one or two games of the film done, as It took a lot longer than expected to be able to get them done. For each play, it took me around 5 or so minutes to determine the correct formation and find the correct play. Meaning it took me lots of time to complete a single drive, let alone an entire game. For some plays that I didn’t know, I would just leave it blank. It made it even more difficult to decipher when the formations and plays had errors in them, as then I was looking for a formation that did not exist.

    Overall, I had a lot of fun this week. As though I had some difficulties with my knee. I had lots of time to take care of myself while still being able to be productive and work at my senior project. Though I am going to fall short of some of the goals I set for myself at the beginning such as finishing all the games. I also completed some tasks I did not see myself doing. Such as making designs on Canva and totally reconstructing my right knee! Overall, a pretty productive week.

Day 3

  Day Three 6:30 Pm: I woke up at 9 again today. I began working at around 9:15 as I ate breakfast as I worked. I wanted to look at some other designs people in the football world used. So I scrolled through Twitter accounts such as Notre Dame’s Football page, Alabama’s Football page, and the New York Giants football page. Many of their designs were pretty simple and I took a few pointers from their designs. I also think they use a much better app them Canva, but I am going to just stick it out with Canva. I researched and worked on my design for about three hours before I went in for lunch. After lunch, I watched some film and got around halfway through the first game. It is taking me a long time right now, but I hope to get faster the more I do it. Overall, I worked from 9:15 to around 12:30, and then from 1 to around 3:45. A total of around 6 hours of work.

Day 11

  Day Eleven 1:30 PM: Today I began working right when I woke up at 9 AM. I wanted to finalize both designs on Canva. I also wanted to make one or two more designs using the skills I had learned. Canva is hard to use, as it makes posting your design complex. I worked on finalizing these designs for about three hours. From around 9-12. This completed the hours I needed and I could work on the slideshow. As well as the three-page paper for the rest of the day until I needed to return to Proctor. This brought my total hour count to 51 hours. Added to the 24 hours I missed due to surgery, I now have all 75 hours completed!

Day 1

  Day 1, 3:30 PM : I began my day by waking up at around 8:15. I was showered and done eating by 8:45, and was ready to begin my senior project for the first time. I began by texting and scheduling my meeting with my mentor Ben Rulli. It was going to be at around lunchtime and I had some free time to begin researching how to watch and study film properly. I took some notes from a number of youtube channels and professionals. Whose job was to review prospects and watch how they broke down film. I did this for almost two hours before Rulli was able to call me. We then talked for around an hour before I took my lunch break. Then, with the new information and access to film provided by Rulli. I was able to begin planning my film study. I organized the film into different games and organized a key to help me determine plays and formation. I did a preview of the film of our first game before I had to log off for the day to go to our varsity lacrosse game. I worked a total of around 6 hours t
