Benjamin Magyer
Digital Video Coordinator
My
name is Ben Magyer, and I’m a sophomore here at KSU. I’m currently a
business major, but I will soon be switching to history. I figure that
if I have to go to college, I might as well study something I love.
Although I love history, my real passion lies with ultimate Frisbee.
While attending KSU, I’ve changed from being a KSU hater to a KSU lover.
I love playing “ultimate” for Kennesaw; it gives me a sense of purpose
and integrity.
I
attend class four days a week, work part time and still make some time
for practice. This semester is rough with certain circumstances
hindering the time I have to study and actually attend class. It seems
all I do is work, school, work then school, but I can tough it out for
one semester. Somehow, my grades have not even suffered and I’m proud of
that accomplishment.
Team Role:
For this
project, I am the digital video coordinator. I believe this is a good
fit for me for several reasons. I do not write well, so I do not want to
be in charge of the formal report. Being the web master is just not very
interesting to me, so I would not do a quality job. I've been the group
leader in college, and I did not like the predicaments that arise at the
last minute which always forces me to do others’ jobs. Finally, digital
video editor, that’s right up my alley.
I’m thinking this is a
good fit for me because I find the process very interesting. I will be
in charge of filming, editing, and fully completing the video. I have
never worked with iMovie, and I enjoy working with new computer
programs. Also, I have very limited experience on Macs, so this will
give me a chance to learn more about software overall. After attending
the special class for video editors and group leaders, I was really
interested in the capabilities of this program. I plan on spending some
time in the computer lab before the editing takes place, that way the
process will go much quicker.
