Assignment: Create A Two-Minute Video

There was a virtual job fair for teachers and the assignment was to: “Create a two-minute video, or elevator pitch, telling us how you will positively impact our students. Be yourself and show us what sets you apart from other educators!”

I got the job! As a matter of fact, I had two offers and had to turn one down (Which was difficult because the principle of the other school was super nice.)

I have to give a shout-out to PowerDirector University which showed me how to do green screen. I also learned that, when lighting for green screen, there better not be any shadows.

Here’s the video:

    You did a great job in this interview! Including skillful use of green screens, clear diction, and conveying sincere enthusiasm! I’m glad you had a choice between two different jobs. I hope you are happy with your choice, and are still working as a teacher at the same school.

    I ended up here after responding to a comment you made, about a post regarding the puzzle piece symbol of autism. It was an old post, written by lady named Jenna in 2018 or thereabouts. No, you are not autistic! Nor did you claim that you were. I’m the one with a problem, as I feel contrite now, because I could have been more courteous and pleasant. I didn’t curse at you or anything horrid like that! If blogger Jenna chooses to publish my comment (one never knows post-COVID19 … also, the blogoverse has become more quiet every year since 2012 or so), and you read it, please accept my apologies if I was too strident?
