- Amy and a classmate worked on creating a music video over several months from September 2009 to April 2010. They researched music videos, analyzed songs and videos, created storyboards and designs, filmed and edited footage, and created supplemental materials like a marketing plan. They worked as a team to complete the project, with each contributing ideas, though the classmate felt Amy could have been more involved in editing and supplemental tasks. In the end, they managed to finish the project on time despite some inconsistent work periods.

I think Amy and I managed our time fairly well but could have been more consistent with our working. We tended to relax and then have to work hard at the last minute to get things done. However we did manage to complete our task and I am pleased with the overall product. I think Amy and I worked well as a team, we both gave ideas for the development of the story and I felt Amy was always willing to try new ideas. I felt Amy was good at thinking logically about how to overcome an obstacle and worked well with the camera. I felt however she could have been more involved in the editing of the video and the creating of the ancillary task. Although I realise only one person can work on it at a time I would have liked to have had her helping in the more technical side of the project. Overall I think we were a good team.
