Although a ton of people came on to help build the place, it didn't immediately get too much attention. It wasn't too hard to figure out that most teenagers have already lost their Minecraft account passwords, so I had to figure out a way to get these 2 weeks of work out and about. I went to Twitter and posted about it, and that's where the first wave of traction came.
But a lot of it wasn't even from Enloe students. In reality, the 496 people liking that tweet were mostly Enloe graduates, baffled at the lunacy of the dolts that were still at Enloe. But they found it cool! Surprisingly. While I wouldn't shrug off nearly a thousand cumulative likes, most of the clout actually came from Instagram.
I had been planning to make a video tour for a hot minute, but it took me a while to actually accomplish it. I wasn't exactly a ripened veteran in the field of Premiere Pro, and I had to grab quality footage of the entire school. My laptop did not enjoy the task.
However, after learning what a keyframe was and how to use premade text effects, I successfully made the wonderful video at the top of the page. I was proud of it already for how nice it looked considering my lack of experience with the software, but I certainly had more to be proud of the second it went on Instagram.
