Character Development


Green Screen Portrait
Hello again, so this week and for 2 more weeks we have anew project called"Your Animation".for this weeks blog we have to write about what kind of person we are. So I would define my self as funny, crazy, loyal, caring, happy, honest, and amazing. We also have to write about what humorous or relatable imperfections that I do. Every night when I go to bed even if its cold like 60 degrees that night I NEED the fan on full blast or on high or else I cant sleep if its not that way.
My GIF

Some character traits that I plan to make or exaggerate are making myself looking like I'm dancing really amazing (which of course I will be...winky face) for about 5 seconds then have a really cool, awesome back round in my GIF animation to cause interest to the viewer. It will also make them want to tell others about my GIF animation that we are all working on as a class.
Cut-Out Front Portrait

The step-by-step process of creating a GIF would be 1.) Taking a picture of yourself with your arms spread out as shown above. 2.) Would be to cut yourself out in photoshop with the "Quick Selection Tool" so that there is no more green screen in the back. 3.)Starting the animation. Add a couple of frames, use the move tool to move your character to where you want. 4.)Puppet warp! Each time you make a change with puppet warp, you need to make a different layer or else that change will apply to each frame. Maybe try labeling all your layers that you make so its less confusing. 5.)Now pick any background in your finder windows and drag it from finder to photoshop and then easily move it to fit the frame.

.MOV Film Festival

P3T7 Blondes Think Big from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

Visual Plan 
Behind the Sense 
Hey Guys, I'm back with another blog post it's all about our new project. We have to make a Movie trailer, Sitcom, or animation our group chose a sitcom. This project is for the "Student Annual .MOV Film Festival."Our keywords connect with our audience because it describes what the sitcom is kinda about like some of our words are"Crazy, Hilarious, Accident, Interesting, Expectation" our sitcom is about how "Blondie's just wanna have fun." Like when we do the Secret Blondie Scene,The Tree Scene, or the Balloon scene.

Visual Plan 
Behind the Sense 
Our overall message was to teach other people that some blondes aren't dumb they just like to act funny or mess around (Which you will learn more about in our sitcom). We let people know that it doesn't matter what the color of your hair is blondes aren't dumb they just like to act funny or mess around. But movies and tv shows these days make blondes act like there the stupidest person in the WORLD!

Visual Plan 
Behind the Sense 
Our teams biggest team was for Alexis (clear throat) to keep focus while we were filming because most of our bloopers are from (clear throat) Alexis. Another one of our teams biggest challenges were trying to get Alexis and Katy to meet up and film our sitcom. Our other challenge was trying to make the balloon float up in the scene of me letting go of the balloon. Our last challenge was editing we took so many videos we had to watch them all to see which one were bloopers and which were good for our sitcom thats DUE THURSDAY!!!

Tiny Spherical Worlds


Polar 1 
Polar 2
Hey guys I'm back and this is week's blog is about our new "Polar and Spherical" project. The point of a composite is it make the picture more interesting. One photo isn't enough when doing this project because it doesn't make the picture come alive. It also give more interest to the viewer when there looking and your polar and spherical panos.

The difference between Polar and Spherical panos are Spherical has less steps than Polar and Spherical makes you look like your super tall in a long angle of yourself and Polar makes you look again super tall but from a high angle photo. When your looking at a Spherical pano it makes you look like your in a snow globe. And when your looking at a Polar pano it looks like a tiny world  blurring of into space.

Spherical 1
Spherical 2
My finished Polar Spherical world are convincing to me because it takes so long to make and you can see these everyday at the store for sale, and sometimes when you make something your proud of it in the end. It looks unique and like your floating away to space when looking yo the Polar pano, and it the spherical pano it looks like your king of the world. Another thing to make your finished final Polar and Spherical panos look realistic and convincing is to have the horizon line in the middle of the photo and to take the pictures vertically.

Hockney Style Joiners

Final Photomontage
Hey guys I'm back we are in a current project called a Photomontage.A photomontage is where Several different photos are taken or arranged to create a new picture or abstract art. Click on MEAH's Blog to see the photomontage she made of me. This week blog is about how David Hockney's photomontages are different from our photomontages. David Hockney's photomontages are different from our because David Hockney is more skilled at doing photomontages because he has done hundreds of photomontages and we have only done at least two or three.

School Photomontage 
Photos can give positive and negative messages. One way of a negative message or photo is showing people all your expensive clothes on a photo to show people who sees these photos to view you as popular, rich, or even better than everyone. A positive photo can be like nature, the scenery. Just always think "How does this photo make other people feel about me is it good or bad?" When posting to social media like Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook, or Google plus.

I want and will give the people that are seeing my Photos whether its classmates, teachers, or just other people off the Internet to be a positive by showing what is important to me if its my family, my dog, scenery, or just everyday things. I don't want people to see negative photos from me, that why you should always "THINK BEFORE YOU POST!" It's a good idea to do that. Remember "How do you want people to view your posts?"

2016 Aspirations



Hey guys I'm back, Can you believe its already 2016, 2015 went by fast. 5 different goal for 2015 would be... Getting strait A's in school and excelling in school. Another goal would be having GREAT friends this year and not having friends who talk behind your back. Being more organized. I would like to be a Better problem solver too. Also I  want to become a better looker because I know I don't find stuff that easy that is right in in front of my face.. These goal I hope to accomplish this 2016 year.

  My one goal I really want to accomplish this year is getting straight A's this year. Its good to get good grades in school because it could affect you when you plan to get a job, or if you are planning to go to college. You may really want this job and then the boss pulls out your records from school and then gives your job to someone else. Wouldn't that be terrible! That's why I want straight A's in school so that this tragic moment I just made up wont happen to me. Not saying that that's going to happen to you but there could be a chance. So yeah...
 
  Some steps I would take would be always do and finish my homework on time , pay attention in class, If I am absent I will be sure to make up my missing work, ask when I don't understand something, and if I make a mistake try my best to not make the same mistake again. If I do all of this I should reach my goal of getting straight A's.

Scratch Game Design


Scratch Game Chase

Scratch Game Platformer

     

Chase Code
Freedom Game
Hey Guys Im back and this weeks blog is about our "Scratch Game Design" how we made it and who we thought about when we were making this Scratch Chase game. When I was creating my game I thought each character or sprite should be 3 of my friends because each sprite is really wacky or crazy. That's why instead of the shark sprite saying "Im going to get you" it adds  more detail like "Im going to get you little fishy" One of my friends is the Shark, tough and likes to chase people. The fish is my second friend she is shy, but is very confident and will beat you in a game. The third sprite is a wacky crazy starfish that doesn't know what's going on and wants to get somewhere else.
                                                                     
Platformer Code
The feature of my game is for my sprite to get my two other sprites the evil yellow blocks.You have 1 minute to get both of the blocks. I need to debug my game a little more because when your suppose to jump it glitches and goes somewhere else so I need to do that if I did that my game would be good and I need to make my game a little more smooth too. If I do that my game should be good.

My best code would be when im trying to make my sprites say something corny or funny. My most difficult problem was when I had to make my sprite jump. I had helpful tips from the focus wall on the videos of ''Simple Jumping and Gravity Engine''. I also thought that Google helped me a lot because if I was faced with a problem I would look up a way to solve the problem.

Invention Commerical


P3T2_Invention from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

Hey guys this weeks blog is about our Invention Commercial. We just finished an assignment that he assigned us. Our assignment was to create a commercial that solves a common problem. Our teams main goals for this assignment,, we asked, "Are we going to finish on time? Is it under the time limit? And are we going to get a good grade like an A ?". Its important to get a good grade because it can affect your future. It could go on your college application, your future jobs, and other important things in your future life.



Our teams best moment in our commercial was when Kaile couldn't grab the spatula and Meah fell on the floor behind her laughing really hard, it was funny, I even laughed when we stopped the video. We had other adventures throughout the filming, like the trampoline. Ohh and trying to make a PERFECT pancake! We have other adventures throughout the filming like I said before.

So when it came down to editing our commercial, we put all of us in charge but when one of us were absent we would put someone who was going to be here like Meah. We knew that she would be here mostly everyday when Kaile and I couldn't be here. We all wanted to help in editing our commercial but sometimes each one of us got busy so when one person couldn't be there we would put whoever was there in charge.
