For my senior capstone project, I created a documentary titled Behind the Screens: What It’s Like to Work in IT, which explores the responsibilities and importance of information technology professionals in modern workplaces. My documentary focused on two specific branches of IT: automation and data management. To create this project, I researched the IT field through articles, videos, and other sources while also interviewing two professionals currently working in these careers, such as my father, who works as an application administrator in automation, and my uncle, who works in data management. I filmed interviews, recorded narration, gathered additional footage, and edited everything together into a final documentary that explains how these careers help businesses operate efficiently and maintain important systems. Throughout this process, I learned how much planning, research, and editing goes into documentary production. I also gained a better understanding of how broad the IT field really is and how important these careers are in everyday life. This project helped me improve my time management, interviewing, and editing skills while creating a final product that highlights careers many people often overlook despite how essential they are to modern society.
