Spanish Discussion Video II
As the semester continues, we will be making more videos. This is the second of such recordings, and was centered around props, with the focus of using the environment around our video in our discussion.
My video was structured around the cars in our schools parking lot: Where I and my partners were arguing with the car vendor (one of my partners) about who deserves to buy a certain kind of car.
The script can be read below:

There are several things I would like to reflect on for this video - I surprised myself with both the memorization and effort I put into making this work with my partners, and I am generally proud of the final result. In less than four weeks, I have gone from knowing not a single word of Spanish to having a full conversation about buying cars. However, there are some things I can work on. Around the 1:20 minute mark in my video, I briefly forgot the response to my partner's question. I recalled it less than five seconds later, but there is a noticeable awkward pause for a bit. Secondly, we rushed our video a bit, but this is not easily noticeable and the timing more than doubled the requirement of one minute. I also seemed better with grammar in this video than in my first. Keeping in mind that this is my second video,I can safely conclude my preformance is much better than the first video, and that the habit of practicing at home has led to a deeper understanding of the language.
In conclusion, I am glad this second video went as well as it did and proud of my work, and will continue to push for a mastery of the language.
I would like to give a shout out to my partners for this video, Kieran Cunningham and Ben Saballegue. They worked hard in the production of this and also memorized their portions of the script leading to this excellent product. I with them success in the rest of the semester's assignments!
