The Difference between a d1, d2 and a d3 baseball player
For my 4th and final project in my sophomore year I compared and contrasted the differences between a d1, a d2 and a d3 baseball player all at once, then I synthesis them by combining their ideas and mindsets, and putting them together to really show how close the three levels of ball are from each other.
English
For english i decided to do 2 different interviews supposing to be three, that consists of the same questions between 2 different baseball levels and combining their interviews to make one big video representing how close the divisions of baseball are to each other. The work ethic may be harder and more intense, but it's just baseball.
The synthesis I was going for in my project was to describe or tell how similar these two baseball athletes are to each other. I feel like when you try to combine two different kinds of things, the product does not come out as clearly as possible, but when you compare the same general area of interest, but different aspects of it to each other it makes a lot more sense. Comparing a Division 1 and a Division 2 college baseball player to each other really gives another perspective on the idea, it also leads to the realization that we are all somewhat the same. even if you're doing something similar to someone else just at a different level, doesn't mean it's a different thing, it's the same thing, but from a different perspective. When you combine the two it makes you realize that it's a game, the only thing that changes is the scale difference. you could be a Division Two player who was very good in high school, just never had the chance to see Division 1 schools, but as a Division One player, you could be a mediocre player in high school and still make it to your respective level. the divisions depend on your skill level and personal interest in the college.
Art
For art I decided to do a collage consisting of multiple different kinds of material, then painted over it with modge podge to give it a better look. I used synthesis by combining revolving parts around my project to make a product that combines the differences between the divisional levels of college baseball.
