Semester 1 Final

Reflection

This semester I have learned a lot. Like using Photoshop and Illustrator. I like Photoshop personally because it is a lot easier to learn and I like photography and editing my photos better than making graphics on Illustrator. My two favorite Photoshop projects have been one of the first ones we did, which is the "Nature Man" one. I also really liked the Panorama one.

Nature Man

For this project we were given a picture of this man and a bunch of nature pictures. We had to put them together by using clipping masks to create a "Nature man". I do not remember how long this took because we did this project at the beginning of the year. I had trouble just getting started and trying to decide what I wanted my vision for him to be. I honestly just played around with it until I made something I liked. I learned how to use photoshop a lot better like using those clipping masks to put more than 1 picture together to create just one picture. The feedback I got was I did not use any blend mode or adjustment layers. I did not have time to make changes.

  Panorama

For this project we had to choose a theme and use 10 pictures to make one panorama. For my panorama my theme was the beach and I used pictures I took on some of my trips. Half were from Florida the other half were from Hawaii. I think this took me a couple a weeks again I can not really remember. Some challenges were just how to make all the pictures blend together right to make it look like they are both from the same place. I learned how to use different blend modes to fix that problem. The feedback I got was that there were a few areas that were a bit choppy which I tried my best to make it less choppy but like it is what it is. But then she did say overall this was really good and she said the colors were very beautiful. 

Thoughts 

Graphic design has been pretty fun so far. I just do not like using illustrator at all. The first quarter I liked better because like I said before I like taking my own pictures than getting to use Photoshop to edit. So I hope we learn more about photoshop.

How To Print Out A Doc. At ONW

width="560"> Pre-Production Our creative process was to name all the steps first on how to create a document and print it out then we looked at all the shots and put them on our story board to see which type of shot would make sense for each scene.Then we each used the iPad to just take pictures of each shot. Then we decided that I would be the actor for the video and Jaidyn would be the director and film.  Filming Like I said before my role was just the actor and I learned that you have to act like the camera isn't there and not pay attention to other things around you. I also helped like place the iPad in the right places and i learned how to make your shots level and use the 3 thirds rule. Editing I also edited the video. I learned how to use premiere pro and how to put the videos together and make sure they make sense so the audience doesn't get confused or it does not look weird. I also learned how to add words onto the video and how to ad...

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 ou...

My Personality Type

About My Personality Type My personality type is an ESTJ. This means that I am extraverted,Sensing,Thinking and Judging. Extravert means that I like being around people and i get more energy when I am around people. I do think this is true. Sensing means I make decisions based on logic and evidence not how I think this should happen. I think this is also true. Thinking means that I use logic for my thinking and I do not really think about feelings. Judging means that I would rather have a plan and know whats going on rather than just winging it. Some famous people that are the same type are Hilary Clinton and Michelle Obama. Some reporters and lots of actors and actresses like Emma Watson. How Well Does This Describe Me I think this describes me pretty well. I am definitely extraverted I hate being by myself I get energy from being around people. I also think the sensing is right too because i never really go with my gut I always pick the most logical or reasonable thing to d...
