Rememberance Day


To make this video i took a video and a song from youtube and put them together. I cut some parts out of the video and added text. I also added fade effects to it. I think this project was pretty good.

Week 8

Monday
Today, using final cut pro I cut out the peice of film that i wanted to use from the video clip i got fro youtube. I chose my song and added it to the video. I brought it to motion 2 and checked out some effects but didn't get to use any yet.

Tuesday
Today Mr D. gave us a note on photography and video and how to make it look good. I added fade effect to my commercial and added text. I am finished it now and it looks pretty good.

Wednesday
Today Mr D. assigned us anew project. We have to make an ad for cyber bullying. We brainstormed all class and got some good ideas.

Thursday
Today Mr D. told us that we could use a different idea other than cyber bullying. We spent most of class trying to think of a new subject but we couldn't think of one. Mr D. came and told us we can do our video on bring your kids to work day and how to be safe.

Friday
Today we got assigned a side project for Halloween. Mr D. showed us some photoshopped picture of teachers turned into Halloween people. Then he had us do it to ourselves. It turned out pretty good.

Wednesday
Today i finished my shsm poster and it looks sick. It took me almost all of class to finish even though i only had a little bit left to do but people needed my help. I didn't get a chance to do the avatar thing but i will tomorrow.

Journal Week 6

Monday
Today was Thanksgiving Day so we didn't come to school.

Tuesday
Today, I finished tracing a computer which I don't know why I did ( maybe I will use it later ). And I took some pictures for my poster. I took like 10 and one is good but i need to retake it because
Mr D. wants me to blur out the people in the background.

Wednesday
Today I retook a picture and it turned out good. Then I cut out my main figure from the picture and changed it to my liking. Now I have an idea of the poster layout.

Thursday
Today I added some star effects to my poster along with the website. I put stuff in its place and its looking pretty good. Also, we stayed later in this class because we had a pep rally right after.

Friday
Today, i cut out the white space on some of the pictures because it was getting in the way. I fixed the layout a bit and it looks even better. I went onto picnik.com and got some cool text to add to my poster.
