Week 3 EOC: Swingers - Deeper Meaning

The deeper meaning of the movie Swingers is about just going out and meeting new people, networking, etc. You should be honest with others. Don't lie about who you really are and what you do because it can backfire in the end, never lie about yourself. Don't oversell yourself because you make yourself look ridiculous and no one will want to be interested in you. Be confident and believe in yourself. You should know how to talk to people and be able to engage different crowds. Always stay interested in others conversations and show that are interested in getting to know them. During the movie the character that was going out on dates being played by Vince Vaughn’s shows that he is not confident talking to people nor he is confident with people talking to him. He lacks the ability of staying social and keeping an interesting conversation.

With a deep intention of heart, I wish to serve in this field of engineering as a sound engineer. Hope my talent will prove very productive in growth of the company in upcoming days.

Week 1 EOC: "Voice"

I come from a small town located in the central coast of California called Santa Maria. As a kid I was always surrounded by art. As I grew up I enjoyed simple things like drawing, taking pictures, filming, and deejaying. I would go to the beach and lakes and take pictures. In high school during the rallies I would usually be the one taking pictures and filming as well as deejaying when I could. I would deejay house parties as well and I really enjoyed doing it. After high school I moved to Las Vegas and I would help my uncle set up the sound systems for events that he had going on. That's where I got my first experience as a professional. I would work with Mexican bandas, mariachis, norteño grupos, etc. I would also do some photography and filming whenever I can as well. I would set up and be in charge of setting up and breaking down at the end. Also I would be in charge of the board and making sure everything is working properly. Since I’ve attended The Art Institute of Las Vegas I have acquired the skills as an audio tech from mixing and editing to basic camera skills. Not only that but understand and know to trouble shoot equipment and is needed I’m able to fix it, basic electronic engineering skills. I’ve been offered gigs such as being a deejay at one of the clubs on the strip. Ive also been offered to film company events.
