I like this assignment in particular because it directly deals with the Media, Self and Society program itself. This assignment feels like a full circle of sorts because we were able to make an advertisement advocating for people to join the program that we are in today. Not only were we able to use our personal experiences to make this assignment the best possible, but we were also able to learn concepts we newly learned, as well. The idolatry frame helped us get straight to the point and allowed us to be personable in expressing our thoughts.

Our group project from this fall was an especially strong one, in my opinion. I was proud of how we were able to work efficiently as a group despite the COVID-19 pandemic limiting our in-person meeting abilities. While each member of our group split up and took one part of the presentation, we all worked together through various Group FaceTime calls in order to perfect the presentation. My specific part of the project dealt with personal relationships as it pertains to streaming services. It was an interesting way for me to dive into streaming services such as ESPN+ and see how they personally relate to their customers.
