Finals

The tool we used the most for this project was the text mask tool and used the effects panel to make them more transparent.

 Here we used the clone stamp tool and we selected the edge then slightly moved it to the side to give the effect of movement.

 We used the text mask tool and then selected the inverse and added a gradient of blue and black so that the school was showing through the letters then I edited the colors of the picture to make it look more like a painting.

Here we used multiple pictures then selected them and added them to the big picture, the lasso tool, the effects panel, and then added a vector mask to each of the pictures to make it seem more dreamy and remove some of the edges.

Website

This was all but difficult, i loved every second of it. I've always wanted to make a website but i didn't know how but now i do. Now I can make A WEBSITE ABOUT KITTENS!!!!! Just kidding, thats weird. Thoughts, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm, n-no.....WAIT YES!....can we make more websites because this was really fun and i would love to make more, but just with more freedom to make it how we want.

Logo Sketch

The Scope of this project was to see how good our understanding is with logos.
Well i really like ravens so i wanted to make a raven logo, but it was so plain so i decided to make it out of words, i really liked the way it looked, but it needed something in the background and i wanted to involve a moon, so i made a moon looking thing.
I learned that making logos is fun and takes a lot more thinking than i thought.
I won't do anything different next time i love my logo and process.
Everything, I'm happy with the final result and it was fun.
I will think more deeply about the colors i use now that i know the meaning of them.
I liked this, more projects like this will be fun.

Logo Color Use

This logo is the Alienware computer company. They make really good computers for gamers. The colors it uses varies, but their main one is this blue one. It is this blue color because when you see it you think of how cool it is and blue is a cool color. So that way whenever you see it you instantly think of how cool it looks and it makes you want to go buy one. It uses the shading to make it look mysterious so you are curious about it and it adds to the cool factor.

An Interview with Alex

This semester was really fun. I enjoyed laughing at the funny videos that people made and the filming/ editing of my videos. I might take video next year because it was just really enjoyable and was something i liked to do. In the future i planned on being someone that i refer to as a "YouTuber". Ever since i saw my first video i was amazed, and when i started watching more and was laughing i decided that when i grow up i wanted to be the person making people laugh. And i did a pretty good job of doing that this semester, Whenever i created a video, in my head i always thought of the potential comedy in it. So when we did the first project i was sooooo nervous about people seeing it because i was worried they wouldn't laugh, but i was so wrong. When my video started playing up on the screen it was silent, i started to hide my head, then i hear laughter, then more, my video was funny! They didn't stop laughing till the end. Thats when i knew i succeeded in making everyones day better. So what i took away from this class is that my dream of being a "YouTuber" might actually come true.

What i learned is that filming a chase scene is super fun and exciting, even when i am the actor. Plus when you use the 6 shot sequence it is very quick to film. With the next project i might use the 6 shot sequence but probably not because i don't like the fact that you have to use all the shots. If i could just use a few of them it would be more fun but, until then i still don't quite care for it. But if we had the choice to do a chase scene again i would totally do it because it is fun and it keeps the viewer entertained, and they don't get bored as quickly. With this project it needed more collaboration because there were to actors in this Video. With one person running one chasing and the other filming it was a very fun Filming process. In the next project i should try to let the others have more control on what scenes are filmed/created. The team i had was awesome when it came to collaboration because we were all participating and doing our share of the work.
