1. Describe two situations that aggravated, bothered, shocked or otherwise stressed you during Drift 1 or 2. (Please note that the situation CANNOT be technology-related.)
For Drift 1, I noticed that when you are taking recordings in suburban areas and not in busy streets and intersections, many people notice you a lot more than they would closer to downtown. After the 5th or 6th time of explaining what you are doing, it tends to get a little aggravating. Yet, it is still interesting to find out which people are suspicious and which people are just plain curious, on my walk it ended up being about half and half. On my second Drift walk my strategy was shooting video of tree trunks close up, and since I wanted to use video instead of a still shot it became frustrating to find the right balance of steady movement with the camera. However, while I was editing I was surprised to find that I actually liked the shakiness of the camera to a certain point, more so than editing still shots to make the appearance of movement, it makes everything seem to linear. So my main struggle in Drift 2 was to maintain a good balance between shaky and linear movement.
