Vlog experience.

I have returned from my trip and finished editing my vlog.Some of the obstacles encountered was 
•figuring out how to edit 
•vlogging Saturday and Sunday because of my busy schedule 
•keeping up with my Selfie stick 
•keeping enough battery to save for my vlogging 
All I need to do is create my PowerPoint of the expenses of dance.

Journey





                               What is the cost of consistent dance training?


In my English class, we have started a project called Genius Hour. In this project we have to choose a interesting, passionate, and beneficial topic that we want to educate ourselves about. My mind is going towards a dancers life and his/hers expenses.
     Dance training in general is expensive but I want to get down to the absolute number. For example, every summer I go to about five dance camps that are about 500 dollars each . On top of that during the year round I go to a studio classes with monthly payments of costumes ,choreography , and competitions.I want to thoroughly explain this to my class.This will be part 1. 
      Also in my project I want to make a part two of my research: A dancers life. Coincidently I am going to Los Angeles for a week to train. I want to show my class the intensity that I train at and how it is NO JOKE . My dance training is very important to me and I am willing to sacrifice my money and time to be successful. I want to include the expenses,amount of hours I train, and overall the whole experience during this video blog.
    Some of the problems I may run into are:
-finding the right camera to vlog with
-calculating the expenses
-lack of information
-not getting off topic
-editing the vlog
   In conclusion,having the knowledge of the expenses for training will benefit me.It will give me a boost of more appreciation for the people that pay for me to do what I love. In addition , I feel the vlog of my work ethic may inspire viewers or other dancers.
