Quarter 4 Final Project

 

About The Project 

For the last quarter of E-9 we had a shark tank project. A shark tank project is when we get put in groups of 4-5 and we had to be basically apart of a made up business. For our business we needed a name for our company, a product, a logo for our product and company, a coupon, ads, a commercial, and a 3D model of our product. Then after we have done all of that and put it all into our website we had to present it to
about half of the freshman E-Comm program. All of this took us about 2 months to do all of this. 

Our product was called the LI. It stands for Language Interpreter. It can translate any language for you with an earpiece that tells you what to say and glasses that can read off what someone says or even writing. This product we thought would help unify our planet and everyone would be able to hear the world their way. 

Some challenges we faced while doing this project were trying to decide what we were going to do with our commercial and also communication there was just some stuff we never really talked about and we just had to come up with it on the spot. Also the people who were in charge of doing the sketch up never turned in or made their Sketchup into a video. But from our struggles I did learn that next time we do a group project we need to keep each other accountable better and make a group chat so we all can communicate better. Some of the feedback that we got back was to have all of our bios the same size and for our presentation to work on cleaning up the end of it. We did work on the ending together. I also got feedback on the ad I did to change the colors and make an ombre effect and I did change that. 

My overall opinion on this quarter was that it was really fun to actually get mixed up and meet other people in the program. I also loved how we got to make our own product hat doesn't exist yet and hat we could make it look like its a real product with a commercial and ads and a website. I also loved how we got to show everyone our work and got to see what everyone else got to come up with.



Time Management 

During class time I completed all the work I was in charge of. For Animation I was in charge of the bigger ad and I completed that in class. In Video I edited and helped film all during class. In Graphic design I was in charge of the Logo for LI and I also finished that in class. When I finished a project early I would usually work on other assignments for other classes or try to fix something from animation or video or graphic design to make it better. I came in once during power 50 to touch up some stuff.

Maximizing Strengths

The way we made sure to use all of our strengths was to ask everyone what they thought their strength was and hen thats how we assigned all the work and surprisingly there was no fighting over what a person wanted to do we just vote and then thats it. My strength personally would be editing videos or graphic design. So I made the whole logo for LI and I made the globe for the Embraced Global logo which was our company name.

Weaknesses

To support our weaknesses was that we had an extra person since we had a group of 5 so we either had one person just try to help everyone if they did not feel confident about something. Like my weakness is animation but Yabi helped me a lot during that rotation.

Summary

The thing I loved most about this quarter was working with other people I did not know and making the commercial even tho it was really cold outside because we had a bonding experience. The thing I would change is maybe having everyone write down at least one person they would like to be with. I learned that it takes a lot of work just to commercialize a business. Also communication is key. One goal I would like to set for next year is to challenge myself more and get out of my comfort zone. Overall this was a really fun project and I would love to do it again.https://youtu.be/r0NrJQAvbYA

House Project

The Project So for this project we used sketchup and we had to make a model of a house we found on houseplans.com. This let us learn sketchup more and how to use different techiques in sketchup. The Process First we had to find a house then we had to look at the measurements of the house. I first just made a big block then I shaped it to look like my house. Then once I just got the shape of my house I added a porch and stairs. Then I started adding windows, doors and stuff like that. Then finally I looked back at my house and just tried to compared them and I added extra details that I forgot to do. Then after that I made an animation of giving a tour of my house.  I used this texture for my porch I used this texture for my house. What I Learned I learned how to use sketchup and different tools and techniques within sketchup. Like the push and pull tool to make a shape different heights. Then I learned how to use the orbital tool to move the camera an...

Short Film

What I Learned I worked on the "Victoria" I learned that sometimes you need to problem solve last minute and I learned how to do that because 2 actors quit on us. We got replacements fast and made an effective schedule that works for everyone. I also learned how to organize everything better to make everything easier.  What I Would Do Differently I would have picked different actors who were reliable the first time so we did not have to spend a lot of time just worrying. I also would have changed the volume in some shots the car scene needed to be quieter and the coffee scene needed the audio of the dialogue to be louder. Also next time to make sure there is no jump cuts.

Music Video

About The Project For this project we had to choose a music video to recreate. My group decided to recreate "Young Dumb & Broke'" by Khalid. First we had to make a story board, film scape and beat sheet. Then we went out to film. Then we edited it.  What I Learned During this project I learned how much work it actually takes to make a music video. My job was being the director. As the director I blocked scenes and I also learned how to be a better leader and taking the lead in decision making. I learned how to use color correction a lot better. I also learned how to use some shortcuts so I can edit faster. I also learned how to use white balance in post production. I also learned how to slow down and speed up clips. I also learned I feel like how to a better leader when directing and  Reflection For this project what I would differently is pick a video that matches the weather we are having because the weather was a big problem. I would also try to get mo...
