Blog 10- Interview 2 Reflection.

1. Please explain how you are spending your mentorship time (Is it at a workplace or somewhere else?  Are you shadowing?  Are you able to do tasks that are meaningfully related to the topic?  If so, what?  Are there other people who are experts in the location?  Etc...) Boo has been showing me how he sets his reputation with the public which is basically his audience. So he is demonstrating how he markets himself and explains his profession to public. Other experts in this field are other professionals in the sport of skateboarding as well. 

2.  How did you find your mentor?  How did you convince this person to help you?  

I found out of Boo because he is currently dating my cousin. So i just asked him if he had the time and he said sure but i am currently looking for another mentor who wouldn't be on tour as much as Boo.

3. How would you rate your comfort level with your mentor at this point in your relationship?  How does this relate to the time you've spent so far at mentorship/with this person . I would rate my level of comfort with my mentor pretty decent.  It doesnt show no correlation to the amount of time i have spent with Boo. But i am pretty comfertable with him.

4. What went well in this interview?  Why do you think so?  What do you still need to improve?  How do you know?  How will you go about it? I unfortunately did not get to do this interview becaue my mentor was on tour, but as soon as he returns i will complete this task. 

Blog 9- House Advisory Prep 3

1. State whether or not you currently have a mentor, and what the status of your interview is with that person (I have completed the interview, I have scheduled the interview, I have not scheduled the interview, etc).
I have a mentor right now, and i have a scheduled interview with that person.

2. At this point, your research is probably guiding your studies toward more specific areas within your topic.  Name the area or two you find most promising and explain your reasons.  
 Two areas that they have directed me towards are clothing lines and video parts 

3. What kinds of sources do you think will help you in the next month to gain more research depth?  Where will you go to get them?
I think articles will help me because they're the most recent, and i will look online for them .

4. Write down a possible EQ.  Please don't worry about wording other than ensuring that it provides the option for multiple correct answers.  At this point, the senior team is most interested in understanding your thought process.
"What is the most successful way a professional skateboarder can market himself?"

Independent Camponent 1 Proposal

 1) Describe in detail what you plan to do for your 30 hours.
 For my independent component I plan on making a skateboarding video and taking the time it takes to make the video and the time it takes to edit it to reach the 30 hour mark.

2) Discuss how or what you will do to meet the expectation of showing 30 hours of evidence.
In order to reach the 30 hour mark, I will spend about a total of 20+ plus hours making the video and try to make the rest of the time with editing. I will record my hours with video footage as proof for how long it took to take it.

3) Explain how what you will be doing will help you explore your topic in more depth.
My topic is how professinal skateboarders market themselfes in the skateboarding world, and thier video part is a big way they put themselfes out there. So making an video is getting as close as possible to knowing what its like to market yourself.

4) Update your senior Blog.
Ok,
