This portfolio project is all about showing off what we've accomplished in our two past years at Freestyle and getting constructive criticism from professionals in the field. It helps us realize that our work has real-world applications and allows us to connect with people that are actually working in the field. We are also encouraged to reflect back on our work and choose our best pieces, and in doing so we identify common motifs and signatures that we've developed over the past two years. It's a great way to say goodbye to a fruitful two years here.
Freestyle has been such an integral part of my high school experience. I've met wonderful people who also happen to be incredibly talented in animation, audio production, website design, photography, graphic design, writing and more...Freestyle is a hub for honing all these skills and making meaningful products out of the knowledge we acquire in the classroom. It's a perfect place to spend my afternoons - I find that it's a place to seek refuge from the demanding and stressful academic world. Freestyle has challenged me in a completely different, creative way, and for that I am infintely grateful.
