Jezaiah's Capstone Project
Hello my name is Jezaiah Aponte. I am a senior at building 21 high school. For my senior project I decided to make a documentary based on my journey becoming an adult. I didn't want to make the documentary all about me so I included others peoples stories. I decided to do this because my journey was rough but I made the best out of it and so did many other people. I want people to know that teenagers go through a lot of things be we are all strong individuals. The process of making the documentary was fun. I got to record my friends and family and hear their stories. I met with my mentor everyday (my mom). When I was stuck she help me and gave me ideas. My mentor guided me through my whole project, she told me when I made mistakes and motivated me when I was doing good. I did a lot of research which actually helped me come up with questions to ask in the interviews. This project made a big impact on me. I realized that everybody has a different story and everyone goes through things. It made me realize that no matter what you go through you can always overcome your problems.
