Short Film - Personal Project

What script did you use for the project? What was the concept of the script?      We used Sarah Pitts' script. The concept was about a teacher who is secretly a serial killer. The students get killed one by one until eventually Eliza, another student, kills the killer, only to find out that she herself enjoys killing. What was your process?     Our Pre-Production process was to first set up a location, start casting and refining the script. We had to make sure every scene we needed was storyboarded and ready to go, along with assigning production team roles. There were only three of us so production took a lot. Once we got the location we set up a day of everyone to show up and stayed until late to make sure we got every shot we needed. What was your role in the process and what did you learn along the way?      My role was the Art Director and the Location Scout. I learned that actually finding a good place that fits the script and concept of the film is harder to actually do

Final Reflection (Web Design)

What is one valuable takeaway you learned?           I learned how to better my usage of technology in web design. I learned that just making a simple website does not get the job done and how to make the website more appealing. I learned it by making websites by code and designing it in my own way. This is important because with the mental health online business I plan to run I now know how to make my own website layout from code. Challenges I faced was remembered which code to use and when. What are your greatest strengths/what are your weaknesses?           My weaknesses would have to be not being able to get work done on time. I tend to be OCD and a perfectionist when I work so I always get caught up on making it perfect. My greatest strengths would be color scheme and font. I can always pick a good font and color scheme for the website depending on the topic. What are you going to do with what you have learned?           I am going to apply what I have learned to my onl

Final Reflection (Video Production)

What is one valuable takeaway you learned from each guarantee?           I learned Project Management as my most valuable takeaway from E-Comm. I learned it by having to work in groups with a large project and a limited amount of time. It was important because when I go to college and even throughout my high school years I will need to lean to make schedules and time manage my projects. The challenges I faced was sticking to the plan and not procrastinating by changing the plan every few days. I had to learn to stay consistent. What are your greatest strengths/what are your greatest weaknesses?           My greatest weaknesses are time management and accuracy/quality. I can do very well with hands-on projects, but when it comes to computers or internet projects I do not do very well. I am a very visually physical learner so if I am not able to touch/highlight anything I will do much worse. My greatest strengths are producing scripts or writing. I have always done well with writi

History of Flash

     🔺 In the time before Adobe Flash the "only thing exciting thing one might find on a webpage was a low-resolution GIF, or blinking text" (Collins 1). When Adobe Flash was first introduced, people were astounded. The new application brought "web-based video, animation, and interactivity..." (Collins 1).       ðŸ”º Then the Flash Player plugin was introduced to the world. This guaranteed that when the application was put on a computer the design of the webpages would look the exact same for every computer, no matter the product's company or the type of browser the buyer used to access the internet.      ðŸ”º Steve Jobs, the founder of Apple,wrote in 2010 his thoughts on the new Flash Player. In the letter on the Apple website he said that instead of using the new Adobe Flash, he was going to make iPhone's and Mac's with HTML 5, CSS, and JavaScript. His reasoning was that Flash could not animate or be made interactive.
