Final Reflection

Recently in e9 we completed our final project. This was a very fun and relatively easy final. I really enjoyed how well my team worked together, agreed on pretty much everything and how my team would always pull their own weight and get their job done when the rest of the team counted on them. I also like how my team came up with some great ideas and we collaborated really well together.

o What was the scope of the project? We really came up with our idea by all sitting together and writing down random logos and products down on paper, and when we all agreed on one we liked we went ahead with making it a reality. Then we all would decide on where we would be best in creating this product. We all agreed on who would be best at what position and went ahead with doing our own part pretty much.

o What did you learn along the way? I learned a lot about my team and what everyone excels at and struggles with. With my own knowledge i didn't learn really that much new things. It was just mainly reveiwing what I forgot in the other strands and having that knowledge come back to me.

o What would you do differently next time?Why? Next time I will try to help other struggling group members finish what they need to or kinda just teach them how to do something that they might've not have known before. I also would have spent more time bettering my project and my contribution and not wasting time playing games or doing other non-important stuff.

o What would you do the same? Why? I would bring the same helpful and cheery attitude i did this time. I also would like to interact with my group as much as I did with this project, as I fell it really made us all whole and really united us as a team all trying to reach the common goal.

This is a screenshot of our commercial i acted in and also helped collaborate with my group to make this the way it turned out.

Final Project

For our final project in e9 we got together in a group and worked on a fake product. Our company name was Only Average Products or OAP. We made a product called ScentedSocks,as you can see our commercial above.I helped act in the commercial as well as help create it.

Final Project

This quarter in e9 we are focusing on our final, end-of-year project. We combine all four strands, Website, video animation and graphic design. In my group I was mainly focusing on the graphic-design aspect of the project. My team really worked well to resolve stuff and come up with great ideas for our project. I had a lot of fun being apart of this final project and being in e9 this year.

Today in Highschool

Today in "eComm" we played with legos as a group. Our teachers wanted us to do another team building exercise, and made us play with legos. We were supposed to have one person telling instructions while the rest of us worked. We did this four times. It helped develop new "working with a team skills."

Blog Post Critique

These past weeks in e9 we started exploring with web design. We had done this a little bit last quarter in Graphic Design, but we started focusing on it more these past few weeks.

Web Design is fun, but it's not something I choose to do. Honestly, i was really confused at some parts. But i got to learn more about web design which is awesome.

I learned more about the Adobe Suite, especially Dreamweaver. There's a lot of confusing stuff to remember, but I could see myself enjoying it in the future. I learned more about different codes and different css style's.

Dream House Project

These past few weeks we have been working in Google Sketch-Up to create our "dream house." Google Sketch-Up is very easy to use and also very fun, I look forward to using this more during our time in animation.

Keynote Animation

This quarter in e9 we have moved on to the Animation strand, instructed by Mr. Sappingfield! This is our first main project we have started, and we animated through Keynote. After we have met our 200 slide minimum we imported it over to iMovie, and then added in some music and sound effects. After we had all of our music in and it was ready, we uploaded to YouTube and Edmodo, the YouTube link is; https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U3ivFVm-Dj8

The quarter with Mrs. Lofquidst in graphic design is coming to an end. actually this is the last day of freshmen year. I've learned a lot throughout these nine weeks and might consider taking it again next year.

The final project we did was actually pretty simple and not too hard to do. We cut a snowflake out of blue tissue paper and then scanned it into the server folder. Then I tok the snowflake into Adobe Photoshop and changed the color, and took a picture from my favorite ski resort in Keystone, Colorado and just added a couple flakes to the ski slope.

Web Project

These past few weeks in e9, we have been working on a web project in Adobe Dreamweaver. We made multiple pages with HTML. We learned all of the basics of Dreamweaver and even a little extra. This was a really fun and interesting project to do and make. We also had some questions to answer, found below.

B1. HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language.
B2. <head> and </head> are the tags that make headings.
B3. <body> and </body>
B4. H2
B5.  <strong> and </strong>
B6. <em> and </em>
B7. <p> and </p>
B8. Insert>HTML>Special Characters

Final Project

These past weeks in photoshop we have done around  four projects. These were all really fun and we all learned the basics about photoshop. My favorite project was the raven, seen up top. This project was the hardest and the most fun to do. We had to get rid of the cars and light poles, and also blend in all the pictures of Olathe Northwest into the raven. I really enjoyed this quarter in graphic design, and can't wait to return next year.
