Blogpost for Thursday the 29th -

On Monday I helped Chelsie with her slideshow in Irfanview.

On Tuesday we got to turn a regular photograph into a colouring picture. I did a picture of two flowers that look like this;


And turned it into this;

On Wednesday I started to work on the background for my Independent Project. So far I have the lockers and a school door. I have to cut them out and place them on a hard surface, like cardboard, to even stand it up.

Today is Thursday and I will continue to work on my Independent Project. I'm going to cut out the lockers and the door, and place them together. I will also make the small things for my aliens, like backpack/books.

Tomorrow is Friday and it's a PD day!

Blogpost for Friday the 23rd -

This week in Communication Technology I finished my Yearbook Ad Slideshow. I saved it under an .exe file so I can't post it on on my blog. It's upstairs in our school front foyer for the day and make for the week. I think I could have done better with it and made it more creative, because I like my friend Chelsie's more. We did the chapter 13 quiz last week and I got 7/7. I also thought of some ideas for my Independent Project. I'm going to be making the locker background on cardboard so it stands up. I also celebrated my 18th birthday on friday. My birthday was on the 22nd but the party was friday and it was funnn!to meeee!

Blogpost for Friday the 9th.

This week in CommTech I worked on my slideshow. It's going to be based as a yearbook Ad. The first slide looks like this:


I'm going to have a 'who, what, when, where, why, and how' slide pages for this slideshow.

The who section will have pictures of some students from Korah. What what section will be about what will be in the yearbook; picturs of the OSAID event, Seussical, and many more. The where section will have pictures of the places Korah has been too; Do the DU & Duke of ED. The why section explains why you should by the yearbook. And the how section will explain how you can get this yearbook; where to buy it & how much it costs.

This week I also made the actual buttons. The Korah Grad and my quoted one. Today I got a button that looks like this;
But the apple above ^ is actually an green apple mac icon.

Blogpost for April the 1st ;

This week in Commtech I observed the screenprinting process. Chelsie screenprinted a shirt, based on her martial arts. I also finished my design brief. It is going to be a stop motion claymation. I recently bought playdoh and am ready to start making my characters. This is my description of what my animation will be like;

For my design I plan on making it a school related background. With printed out lockers in the background. I will then make little characters that look like aliens to substitute for students, and make a bigger alien for the teacher all dressed up. 1 is the bullied alien, Alien 2 is the bully, Alien 3 is Alien 1's friend, and Alien 4 is the teacher. I will have a day 1, day 2, day 3, and a day 4 scene. For day 1, Alien 1 is walking in the hall, and Alien 2 will knock the books out of Alien 1's arms on the floor. On day 2, Alien 2 bullies Alien 1 once again; steps on Alien 1's work while the alien is working on his homework at his locker; Alien 3 is sitting with him. On day 3, Alien 1 is sitting alone, and Alien 2 starts to go and make fun of him. Alien 3 shows up with Alien 4, and Alien 2 gets caught. On day 4, Alien 1 and 3 walk in the hallways while Alien 4 is in detention writing lines saying, I will not bully. This will be a different background scene, a classroom scene. This will be a long period of working time, with all the stop motion pictures, but it will send the message out clearly. I will place these pictures in windows media player to create the animation and make sure each picture has the appropriate timings.

This week we also had a quiz on our digital terms. I think that went pretty well. And today is April FOOLS!

This weekend is the easter holidays with a 4 day weekend, ecstatic!
