Quater 2 reflection

I think my area of strength could possibly be story boarding. I could probably improve on using the axis line to my advantage. I loved working with my friends in video. I wish I could change it so we could have worked in  group of our choosing more. I didn't like the first project where we had to do something on our own. Next semester i hope to work more on posting blogs

Sequencing

I thought this was the chase scene so we did a chase scene, apparently it was Sequencing and not a chase scene.




So what I could have done better was added music and edited my shots so it looked like she was running continuously. I also would have removed an accidental speaking line I said. What I think I did well with was designing the story board and carrying the camera up the stairs without falling.

6 shot system

In E-Comm we learned about the 6 shot system and the rule of thirds. We applied the skills we learned to create a video



My video was made with objects instead of real people; I still used the shots and made the video. I made mine look bad on purpose due to the lack of an actual marshmallow. What I wish I had done was to write "marshmallow" on the marshmallow since you wouldn't know it was a marshmallow otherwise.

6 Video Shots

In Movies and TV shows there are 6 types of camera angles. Each shot lasts from 2-3 seconds. The 6 types of shots are:




Closeup
Closeups are used to show something in detail


Extreme Closeup
Extreme Closeups are used for more detail than a closeup

Extreme Wideshot
Extreme wideshots are used to show setting like where people are thats larger than normal wideshot

Over the shoulder
Allows the viewer to see whats happening from the shoulder's point of view

Medium shot
Medium shots are ideal for two characters talking as its a middle ground between widest and closeup.

Wideshot
Wide shots are used to show a large area of the scene but not as large as extreme wideshots

Social Media

We read an article on Social Medias and how employers can find social medias of students and how it effects whether you could get hired or not. You have to be careful of what you post online, since yours future employers could see it. Remember that time on twitter when you called someone out? Your employers saw it. The time when you posted something hurtful towards someone? Employers can see it. They know your social medias and they want to see what kind of person you are just based on your social media. It doesn't matter your GPA or test scores; if you post bad things online they will decline you. A way to avoid this is to think about what you type and/or send over social medias. You should have a professional email that is not connected to any social medias to help.
I'm personally not on as much social media as normal people my age, so I don't post anything that I regret.

Graphic Design Elevator Pitch

   
        I am an e-Communication student at ONW with a skill set for design. My fellow classmates compliment me on my art of characters or just general designs. I'm hoping to learn where I can put myself into a job centered around graphic design. I am a powerful thinker who is inspired to helping people with designs. I now want to use my skill in the best way I can to make ONW a colorful place. I hope I can help with logos in the school.

House Spin

Over the past week or so we used the 3d program "SketchUp" to create a 3D model of a house. To create the house we started with just a flat rectangle and molded it to resemble a house. Looking for a good house to model was not easy, we used a website to look at houses until I decided upon this small duplex. The hardest part of this was probably cutting the shapes to form the house, a lot of the lines ended up being slanted which prevented me from making an entire shape. I felt like the house was very empty but I didn't want to add people in the house; that would make it seem more normal. So I went into the SketchUp workshop and added pokemon instead.
