My Little Intro !!!

Hi there!!! Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Jotham Penalosa. I am 19 years old.


I am a first-year student at TUD (Technological University of Dublin) and I am studying Creative Digital Media. So far, I am enjoying the course a lot.


Now let me tell you more about myself. Let's start off with my hobbies, simple but can tell a lot about a person. I enjoy listening to music a lot, not any particular genre. It just depends on my mood.


Going on adventures with friends is probably my favorite hobby. I do enjoy nights out but i prefer to go out and explore and find a place to just relax and talk about everything.


I'm not really an athletic person and I don't take much interest in sports too, but I do go to the gym just to balance out all the unhealthy food and drinks I consume.


Haven't really had a favorite film until Joker had come out to the cinema. I particularly enjoyed this film because how it tackled the problem society impacts on some people and how unfair the world really is.

So now let's talk about food. It's hard to pick a favorite especially when it comes down to food but if I had to pick one, I would have to say pizza. I mean the combination of toppings is endless. From your plain cheesy margarita to something bizarre like tuna, egg and pineapple (not that I have tried that).


There isn’t much left about me to discuss. So, I guess this blogs purpose is to show you guys my daily go about in life as a student in hopes that you and everybody else who follow the blog can relate and enjoy another student’s journey in college and daily lifestyle.


Enjoy.

Third Mission - Digital Journalism - Fake News

~Product Pt.1~


In order to make a video for fake news we had to come up with fake news. Instead of taking an idea of the internet we decide to have our own story. We based our news on Shaun, the news did not have to be in any way extreme we only needed to demonstrate what fake news is and how it effects the media. Our fake news is on Shaun who is pretending to have a Donegal/American accent and is actually from Finglas and had a heavy Dublin accent.

In the first week we planned out how we were going present this video. We came up with the idea of making a skit that shows how fake news spreads and effects the media. We did some individual research about fake news and how fake news is created in order to help us with our task. We gathered the information we have collected and agreed on ways we could spread the fake news. Blogger will allow us to make a blog that lays the foundation and source of the fake news, then we will use the the app Snapchat to spread the fake news the blog has provide.

We plan on filming the video on college ground so that it is easier for us to gather and film after our lectures and labs. One of our group member is kind enough to let us use his camera for the filming.
