Q1: What is video production?

A1: In a sense it’s like yearbook in videos because we attend a lot of school events and cover a lot of highlight videos for sports and dances. It gives those who were not able to attend a chance to see what they missed by going on to our DHS YouTube account.

Q2: What is your position in this class?

A2: I am president. My job is to overlook all upcoming events and assign people to go record it and create the video.

Q3: What is the most memorable moment that you have been involved in because of video production?

A3: Because we are meeting a lot of new people and keeping connections, we have many, but the most memorable had to be the volleyball team experience. We went with them everywhere, to every game, even up north. We became really close to the players and coaches.

Q4: What made you join this class?

A4: It was because of my friend, Eliseo Juarez, that I joined this class. He thought that I would be perfect for getting in front of the camera with the whole news reporter thing, and I am so happy he brought me in. I love this class

Q5: What are the requirements for being in the video production class?

A5: You have to be experienced with computers. That is pretty much it. As long as you are comfortable with iMovie and computers.

About the Contributor

Kimberly Dominguez, News Editor

Seventeen-year-old Kimberly Dominguez is an avid writer and the News Editor at The Downey Legend. Although Dominguez has always enjoyed writing, it wasn’t until her teachers recommended her to expand on her writing skills that she decided to join the Online Newspaper. It is her first year on staff but she is enthusiastic about her position and she states, “I want to put my very best effort in my work.” Aside from writing, Dominguez also enjoys playing softball and drawing. Friendly and optimistic, she believes that no dream is too difficult for anyone, and therefore is intolerant of low self-esteem in others. The News Editor values and cherishes family and lives by the advice her parents have given her: “Keep moving on. Clocks keep ticking and time will never stop for you.” After high school, Dominguez plans on going to a state college in California and then hopes to transfer to a UC college after a couple of years. She aims to work in the Behavioral Analyst Unit for the FBI, where she can question criminals and learn more about their thoughts. She is preparing for this by studying Psychology, and she is also taking Sociology and Philosophy. Another dream of hers is to open a humane animal shelter with plenty of play areas and no metal cages. In the meantime, Dominguez hopes to express her writing skills through The Downey Legend and enjoy her last year at Downey High.
