TV Commercial/PSA Project

-

    For our final assignment, we were instructed to create a TV commercial or Public Service Announcement (PSA), of a topic, company or product of our choice. This project had to be produced in 30 or 60 seconds, and I chose to create a PSA about texting and driving, to raise awareness of a very common and potentially dangerous act that many teenagers and young adults are participating in without any worry or knowledge of what could possibly happen in result of these actions. 

    Many lives lost, and countless injuries in this country were due to distracted drivers. It's something that I believe isn't talked about enough. I personally am guilty of being on my phone while driving sometimes, and I don't think enough about the consequences. So, I wanted to create this PSA about not texting while driving, to shine a light on this subject to bring more attention to this for future drivers. I took the shots for this video over thanksgiving break, with the assistance of my younger brother, and I wanted to get a natural showing of the consequences of texting while driving.

What motivated you into wanting to become a teacher? 2. How long have you been teaching?  3. What are some of your favorite things about being a teacher? 4. What are some of the most difficult things about being a teacher? 5. What advice would you give to someone who wants to get into teaching?  Mrs. Danley has been an educator for a very long time and has been my mom my whole life. She really enjoys teaching young and older minds and has been a very good motivator for me to understand the importance of education and get my work done on time and efficiently.
