Meet the Squad!

Group Member Profiles

Hello, viewers! Today, I have something a little different than usual for you. I will be introducing my group members for our Media Studies project, where we will work together to create a movie opening! Along with myself, I will be collaborating with Rayyan Awan, Edison Chen, and Eugene Oh! Obivously, you guys most likely have not met these individuals, so let me tell you about them:

Rayyan Awan

When introducing my group, there is no better person to start with than Rayyan! We have been best friends for many years now! We first met in a debate class during our middle school years and quickly grew close due to our similar interests, sense of humor, and overall personalities. Over the years, we have strengthened our bond, overcoming obstacles such as being at different schools for a period of time, given that we are not in the same grade level. Rayyan and I have worked together on in-school and recreational projects already, so we have experience engaging. We also typically play video games with one another, so we are fairly coordinated with one another, allowing for greater ease in the media studies project. As an individual, Rayyan is academically gifted, earning the highest grades in a schedule overflowing with college classes. He is also a prominent leader, holding an officer position in numerous clubs at our school. These traits will allow us to plan out our project and execute our ideas efficiently, with Rayyan taking a leading role in overseeing and organizing this process.

Edison Chen

Next, Edison and I met last year at school through our mutual friend, Rayyan. While we used to only exchange a few words in the presence of our mutual, our bond has grown over the past two years, and now we are close friends and relate to one another greatly. Edison is a passionate person, determined to achieve whatever he sets his mind to. Most notably, he wanted to form a club where both badminton and pickleball players could meet and play with one another, and so he spent countless months planning and forming this organization. Unsurpisingly, he succeeded this year, and now this club, known as Pickminton, is not only an official extracurricular at our school but a widely known one as well. Apart from that, Edison is an outgoing, genuine person overall, and would make the process of making our two-minute film feel seamless and fun. Edison is an amazing addition to the team due to the fascinating ideas he could bring to our film and his determination to reach his goals, making him an effective member.

Eugene Oh

Our third group member, Eugene, appears to be a perfect addition to the team. Since we met in middle school, Eugene and I have grown progressively closer over the years. Sharing passions in football and gaming, we had various topics to connect on, and this has only gotten us closer. We have also been a part of numerous friend groups that have risen and fallen over the years, and our friendship is one of the few to remain intact and strengthen, for that matter. We have an immense level of trust, and we feel comfortable sharing our emotions, issues, and more with one another. To put simply, he is a friend that, if I needed him at 3 a.m., would be there for me, and vice versa. Now, in terms of his contribution to the team, he brings a unique perk: photography. Eugene's family has plenty of experience with professional photography, so it is no surprise that he has substantial experience in the field as well. This would be a magnificent aid to our team, as he not only has professional equipment to use for our film, but he also has enough knowledge to know how to properly operate the machinery. This would give our film a more cinematic, professional look, enhancing our project!

Ahmad Saleh (Me)

Last and certainly not least, ME! To make inferences about myself, I believe I can significantly benefit our team. First, I have an amazing academic record, portraying me as an advanced mind who is no stranger to critical thinking and problem solving. This would allow our team to tackle obstacles we may face while working on the project and keep our flow going throughout. Moreover, I am a passionate and loyal person, as many have noticed due to my loving commitment to Liverpool. These traits would mean that I will always be committed to our project, whether this be working on my portion of the project in a timely manner or even just my energy that I will give to this group and project. To top it all off, my close relationship with all my group mates will allow for an efficient, relaxed, and cooperative working environment that will allow us to get the most out of our collaboration!
