20% Project 2014: Week 12

Week 12:

So in my 10th grade English class we started a project back in September and our goal is to help improve someone's life. I decided to make a pool video, that's sort of a tutorial video but yet its a quick easy game. I had video taped myself playing in a game and I tried to upload it to my blog but I could not figure out how to upload the video to Youtube. So since then I have started prioritizing what needs to be in the video and what does not need to be included in it. Since its been a while since I have played, I will take pre-games before I actually record. The recording will probably take place on my phone so the quality will not be as good as say, a regular camera. During this week and by Thursday of next week I will plan to record myself playing and post it to Youtube.

20% Project 2014: Week 11

Week 11:

    Since I have not received any comments from anyone I will talk about what necessities you would need if you are interested in competing in any forms of tournaments. The basics of tournament play is call all shots in what pocket, and in some cases watch your time limit. When I played in my tournaments all that was regulated was call every shot and one safety per game. Once I started playing I got comfortable because I started getting used to calling every shot on every play. I rarely called safety because I got the opportunity to get around my opponents balls safely. The basic necessities you need when playing is your own gear such as personal stick, chalk, (optional) your own glove. Some players will bring everything pool related gear with them to all competitions from 9-ball, 8-ball, and even snooker or trickshots.

Week 10: 20% Project 2014

Week 10:

        This week I have not worked on anything because no comments are rolling in from my viewers. Since not one single person has commented I have not had any situations to work on myself to help you. I hope that ALL OF YOU comment on this blog so that I have something to help you, the viewers with your problems. Quite frankly I have been getting upset that people do not comment even though I have been asking for weeks for just one person to comment so that I could help them with their problems. Next week I would like all of you to strive and comment so that I could go out and report back with solutions to other people's problems. I myself have not played pool in over a month due to the fact that not one single person has commented. I hope that whoever reads this blog will actually comment on some questions or problems they have while playing pool.
