renewed website

In this project I chose a templet from a popular website and then turned it into a Olathe Northwest website. The website I chose was Teslas main homepage. I then turned it into a Olathe Northwest website but using the same layout.Basically i just made different banners and images to replace the teslas ones.

Past Present Future

This project was overall pretty tough. I did not really finish this exactly because I got confused on what we were supposed to do. I thought we were supposed to put all of the information all on one page instead of putting it in different links. The scope of this project was to create a site about ourselves and to give an insight about what our past was about, what we are doing right now, and what we think we will be doing in the future. The link below will be to the project that I created.

topic review

Snake topic 

The scope of this project was to create a site about a interesting topic that we wanted to create a site about. First we had to create multiple pages for our site to explain the topic more in detail. After we did that we created links to different pages about the topic. Then we uploaded all of it onto our index page. I learned that you can change the names of your links and they will still go to the same site. I would make my format a little different next time and i would make my font black. Next time i would keep the snake skin background because that was pretty cool. Overall i think this project was pretty fun and not to hard.

semester reflection

Semester Review

     This semester at Olathe Northwest High School we learned many new things that we can apply to our every day lives as well as our upcoming semester in video. The most important things we improved on this year would probably be our editing skills. On every project that you work on in video you will most likely have to edit your film before you put it not the timeline. Last year we learned how to edit, but this your we vastly improved our editing skills and really dug into how to do everything on the timeline. Another important asset that we learned this year was the rule of thirds. This helped s out a lot when in a interview we needed to show the audience who they are watching and listening to. This year we were able to apply all of the shortcut keys that we learned in last years video class so it will improve or speed and quality of our projects while working. My favorite project that we did would have to be the one where you got assigned a person to write a story over and really got to know them better. I was assigned Will Vestal as my partner and I got to learn how his baseball skills have affected his life and others around him. He did his story over me, which i told him about my amazing Guitar Hero skills and abilities that lead me to be a great video game player. Most of my elements that I applied in my projects worked and turned out to help my project in the long run. This semester we didn't learn very much but we did improve all our skills that we learned last year by a vast amount. I really think that my social skills and Collaboration with teammates improved greatly this year because we have done more group projects and projects that required us to work with a team and really lean on each other. I really ended up enjoying all the things we learned in this class and all the projects that we have completed throughout the course of this semester. Next semester i am going to try and focus on our tasks provided and not get off task talking to other people or working on other things but other than that I'm going to do everything i did this semester because it turned out to be pretty good and I turned out to get pretty good grades on my projects that I am happy with and would want to increase the grade on them a little bit for the next semester but that would be it. Next semester I hope to learn new elements that will improve my learning and increase my quality on projects that we will do in the future so when i get out into the real world i will remember all the things i learned and be able to apply them to my job.

Blood drive reflecion

Blood drive

  
      The scope of this project is to find people to interview about the local blood drive that will be taken place at Olathe Northwest soon. The people in the video i watched of a blood drive did not do very well shooting their footage, they did hardly any of the six shot sequence rules, the only thing close to decent was when they showed a wide shot towards the end of the video but other than that the camera man was really shaky and clearly did not know very much about video.The story that was told was about two people expiriences with donating blood at a red cross blood drive. I would apply the use of the wide shot he used because that was actually decent but other than that i wouldnt apply anything that this person used in their video. I have already learned the six shot sequence and what to do for it but the only thing this person used from there is the wide shot that was not very good.The creator had a decent idea on to film his blood drive experience but he could greatly improve on numerous video shots and the way he hels the camera. Thanks to Lynn wray Dillard for the video.
