panorama project

personal narrative/panorama project

For this project I used New York City as my theme. My parents surprised my sister and I with a trip to New York over spring break. Our hotel was right in the middle of Times Square so we were always entertained.  We were only there for four ways but they were jam packed with fun things to do. Our flight landed around 7pm New York time, but instead of having dinner we went straight to dessert. The next day we walked around and just admired the city, we stopped into a lot of the stores! I had such a fun time looking through all of the stores. They have a lot of the same stores that we have nearby but the stores in New York are so much bigger. The second day was my favorite day, the day I saw Wicked! We went to go see the show around noon, but I woke up so early because I was too excited! When we finally got to the show my parents told us that we were in the very front row. I had never seen a broadway show before, I want to see so many more.

The next two days we walked around some more. Even though we were kind of in the same area we saw a lot of things that we hadn't seen on the first day. These days are where most of my pictures in the project come from. We went to the top of the empire state building and the top of the rock. It was so cool to see the whole city from so high in the air. The city is amazing just walking around but its even prettier looking at it from up top. I also went to Central Park on the last day. It was kind of weird seeing an area of New York that had grass and trees. Most of New York was a lot of people and crazy drivers. It was really nice going to central park because there were less people and you could sit down and admire a different part of the city. On the last day we also went to the 9/11 memorial. It was an amazing experience to see everything. I didn't take many pictures in there because I was trying to take it all in. In a lot of parts they wouldn't even let you have your phone or cameras. I did get a picture outside of the memorial.

The picture farthest to the left I got on the first day, it is a picture of a really pretty tech I saw. The picture next to that is also from the first day, its the very first picture I took in New York. its just a random building but I thought that it captured New York really well. The picture in the middle is in the middle of time square (my favorite area)! The picture of the building next to that I took on top of the Empire State building, not bat the very top but one of the many floors. The picture closest to the right I took outside of the 9/11 memorial. I also added pictures I took like the broadway street sign, the time square subway sign, and the globe sculpture. I put the five main pictures side by side and used the clone stamp tool to add on parts of the building onto the next picture. after that I added in the tiny pictures and put them wherever I had room. I added blending modes and the opacity of many pictures. I also added a blue and green tint to the overall picture.

movie trailer blog post

movie trailer blog post   the project process When we were assigned this project we were asked to pick a high school movie trailer and make one recreating it. My group and I decided to re create the breakfast club movie trailer. We thought it would be fairly easy because most of the video takes place in a school library and the rest in the school hallways. We had to plan out filming and planning days for the project which is something my group and I didn't do well on. The next step was to story board, we had to go through the whole movie trailer and describe and sketch out each frame. When it was finally time to film it was very close to spring break, we had two days of school left and we planned to film all of our footage in those days. Unfortunately we didn't get much done those days, the footage we did get had actors that dropped out so we couldn't't use any of it. When we came back from break we took around a couple of days to find more actors. The actors we ...

final blog

graphic design final reflection blog One of my favorite parts about graphic design was making the vector illustrator portrait. For this project we had to choose an image of ourselves, a family member, or a family pet. We then had to choose if we wanted to do an organic vector which is tracing the facial features on the objects face or a low poly geometric vector which is when you make lots of different and tiny triable on the subject. I chose to do the low poly geometric because I felt it would look better on my dog. It took me around two weeks to complete this project. I was gone towards the end of the first week, if I wasn't gone I most likely would have finished the project sooner. I faced a few challenges along the way. At the very beginning of the project I didn't know how big to make the triangles. I decided to do small triangles on my dogs features and bigger triangles on my dogs body. Another challenge I faced was having all of my triangles looking very similar whic...

music video blog

Music video blog  When we were assigned this project we were told to pick a song and make a video rein-acting  the original music video. The first step of this project was to pick a group. With working in a group comes teamwork and agreeing on things like the song, dates we were going to film, and assigning jobs in the group. My group originally was going to use the song "Tonge tied" by group love. We decided that we were going to change our song because the music video was in an older house and had a party going on. One of my groups biggest struggles was finding times to film so we decided that we wanted to film our video at school. We finally decided on the song "Congratulations" by post Malone because it took place in a filming studio just like the one we have here at school. The video also had the same "party" theme that the Tonge tied video had so we were somewhat sticking to our original idea.  After we began the beginning process of pic...
