  1. Community Connection

    February 14, 2022 by Anna

    For this assignment I decided to interview Corina Boettger, (also known as @corina.boettger on Instagram), is a voice actor known for voicing many characters from video games to TV shows.

    I chose to message Corina because they are very talented at what they do and seem very passionate about their career. Currently I am still not sure about what I would like to have as a career and this assignment was perfect to talk about a career I might be interested in, that’s another reason why I chose to message Corina about their job as a voice actor.

    I learned that there are many obstacles in any job but if you are willing to work for what you want to do and are truly passionate about what you do you can find ways around those obstacles. I also learned that voice acting is a job you need to practice for A LOT and it takes a lot of time.

    Questions and answers:

    1. Can you explain your roles and responsibilities with your current position?

    My role is to act. That’s it

     

    2. Why are you passionate about your job or role?

    I’m passionate about it because I get to be free while doing it.

     

    3. What obstacles have you faced to get you where you are today?

    The obstacles I face more have to do with my physical & mental disabilities and finding accommodations for them in my job.

     

    4. What advice would you pass on to someone interested in what you are doing?

    Take acting classes with teachers that are currently in the industry and have been for at least 5-10 years

    5. How was your process becoming a voice actor?

    I took classes and started auditioning!

    6. Are you considering other jobs or will you stay being a voice actor?

    As long as it’s acting I’m doing it.


  2. Element Sway

    Go to this Sway

    Part 2

    The questions I needed to ask were:

    • What are some features about Dysprosium?
    • What used for?
    • When was it discovered?
    • Who discovered it?
    • Where was it discovered?

    The tools I used to get this information:

    • Google
    • Sway image finder

    How I got my information and cited my sources:

    I searched up my question and found the 3 most helpful websites that had the best information I needed and carefully took notes of the information and then wrote down all the important information onto my sway. I got all my pictures from the Sway image finder and cited the sites they were on.

    How the product and process went:

    My Sway could have had more content since I only wrote down what I thought was most important out of all the information I read. The process went well and it was quite easy and fast to do, but I do think I should have put a bit more time into it.

     


  3. Digital Footprint

    September 20, 2021 by Anna

    How might your digital footprint affect your future opportunities? Give at least two examples.

    My digital footprint can affect me many ways in the future. Whether it is when I am applying for a job or getting into a dream school, my digital footprint will always be just a search away. If I am trying to get a job and I have posted something inappropriate or unprofessional on the internet, then a manager or employee could easily search up my name, find those inappropriate posts and decide not to hire me because of them.

    5 Common But Costly Interview Mistakes Qualified Candidates Make

    Describe at least three strategies that you can use to keep your digital footprint appropriate and safe.

    One strategy I could use is checking to make sure that what I am posting is appropriate and safe. Another strategy I could use is to make sure my accounts on social media are private so that my friends or people that I know are the only ones viewing my posts. The last strategy I could use always make sure the things I post do not reveal personal information about myself or others close to me.

    What information did you learn that you would pass on to other students? How would you go about telling them?

    I would tell other students to be careful with what they post because everything you post and do on the internet is never fully private. Even if you do delete something you have posted, it will not be deleted for good. Someone could have taken a screenshot or downloaded it on their device. I would also tell them that having a clean digital footprint is important for any job you have or may get in the future.
