My Pitch

Image
Pitch A: Friends go for a drive, one of their cars breaks down, and one of them takes the opportunity to convince the other about electric cars.  I would be interested in pitch A for many reasons. One reason that I would be interested in it is that I like cars a lot so it would be something I would be able to understand the topic easily. I would also be able to bring different approaches to it with many different perspectives from the multiple people that would be in it. I would also be able to show how the future will be because climate change has shown how we will need to have electric vehicles for the future.

I could also show this from many points of view where someone could show it from an economic perspective as well as showing it as a social way where it is more ethical to do this and more. Finally, this pitch allows me to expand the topic throughout the topic of climate

The Big Decision for This Project

Today I had to choose if I was going to work with others or by myself for my final filming project of the year. I originally felt it would be best to work in a group with people I knew were productive and I knew they would do their part to help out.

The ones that said yes were not my top three picks which is why I told them that. I felt if I was going to work with other people I should make the best of it and choose people I felt comfortable doing this projec

The Start of a New Chapter

Hi there, my name is Aaron Shaffer and I am a student at Fort Lauderdale High School. I am 16 years old and in my third year of high school. Over the years, through the opportunities I have been able to receive, I have been able to achieve a lot academically. One of those achievements was being able to be a part of the Cambridge program at Fort Lauderdale High School which has allowed me to take multiple college level classes that are allowing me to receive credits, scholarships, and more that I would not have been able to receive otherwise. A little bit about my backstory is that I was born in Fort Lauderdale and have spent all of my life here. I find it a great place to live and enjoy the things that it allows me to do. Having access to so many different activities has allowed me to have many memories made with my friends. Things such as going on jet skis, boats, water skiing and more are things that I could not do in many other places year-round. When I am not out on the waters, som
