week 6



Image result for golf courseThis week, I met with my mentor to figure out what else I should do because I am running out of ideas for videos because I have already made a ton of them. Because of this, I have to decided since it wold be pointless to film random video that would not be beneficial, to start grinding out my website because I have had so many problems with it. Right now I have been setting the website up with everything other than the videos and the descriptions. I have been adding account details and backgrounds for everything, to make the website more professional and beneficial. This week, I will be figuring out how to upload my videos to my website, because I honestly do not know how to do that. Once I figure out how to upload them, I will start adding descriptions of them below the video. That is what I have t do next for my project.

week 5

This week, I have been making at home golf videos because my country club is currently closed and I am not allowed to practice there right now. I have also been making videos on what type of equipment is best to use at home, in case people were wondering on what the best things to use if you are trying to practicing putting or chipping at home. Right now I am trying to make my website so I can upload my videos, but I have ran into so many problems because I can not find a website that is that easy to use. I found one that I am most-likely going to use. After I finish making my website, I will be uploading all of my videos and will be writing descriptions about them under all of them.  Once I finish my website, I will be able to progress so much on my genius hour project because it will allow me to see what I need to do much easier.

week 4

Image result for brentwood country clubThere are many ways that my genius hour project helps me stand out to college and helps shape my life plan. The first way my project helps me is that it shows to colleges that I am different and I want t put out extra work for something they I am passionate about and want to improve at. The second way is that it shows colleges that I am unique because not a lot of kids want to put the effort out to challenge them-self to improve while they are helping other people. Another way is that it shows colleges that I want to help others by helping other people improve by using my time to make golf videos for them so they can learn new tips and drills. The main way that colleges with notice me more than someone else is that they will be able to understand and realize that I am a hard worker and am will to put out extra work to help myself and others improve in many new and even older ways. Hopefully colleges will notice that we all are putting in a lot of time and effort to make these projects and to work on them each week. Also hopefully they realize how hard this project is and take that into consideration. My genius hour can potentially shape parts of my life by maybe making me want to do something golf related when I grow up and get a job in the golf industry one day.
