 Hi Blog! We are now working on our Final Task. I will introduce the member who is working with me. For the Final task project, I decided to work with Camila Villatoro. She is one of my best friends. Camila is in 11th grade an is 16 years old. Camila has AICE Media studies during 8th period. I chose to work with her because I have known her for a long time. I would say we are pretty close. I am very hardworking and so is Camila. She is good at being organized as well as se is helpful.  Camila is easy to get along with. One of the reasons why I chose to work with her is because we are both good at communicating our ideas. She has many other qualities as well. She is very creative and open minded. Once we start the Final task, I will tell her all of my ideas and she will tell me hers and we will decide if they're good enough to be used in our plan. Camila and I are going to start planning the camera shots that are going to be used in the final task. I believe Camila and I can work ha
