How to Print a Document Video

How to Print a Document

How to Print a Document Video

This week in class, we created a video teaching you how to create and print a document. We started by creating a storyboard and sketching out our ideas for each frame, making sure to use different shots and angles for each one. Next, we went to the library and shot some pictures to get an idea for our video. After that, we then shot our video clips. Our last step was editing and exporting the video. Our group agreed on all of our shots, and helped shoot the pictures and videos. 

During this project, I learned a lot of new skills. I learned how to shoot pictures to make them more interesting. I also learned how to use an editing program that I've never used before. I had to use communication in my group to make sure everyone agreed on what we were creating. We had to use collaboration and accept each others ideas. We also had to use time management to make sure we were on track, and wouldn't run out of time. 

In this project, I would have shot more video so I had more to work with. I also would have had more shots, like wide or extra wide, to make it more interesting. I would still edit it the same, and have the same plot. Overall, this project was really fun to shoot and edit. The creation process was a good learning experience, and I learned a lot of new things.

Sidewalk Chalk Project


Sidewalk Chalk

         During the sidewalk chalk activity this week, we learned about symbols and color. First, we brainstormed, and each of us came up with a symbol to represent ourselves. Then we sketched a rough draft on to our paper. After we brainstormed the symbols, we came up with colors for each one. We went with a color scheme of pink, yellow, green , and blue. Each symbol had its own color. We had to come up with a way to combine all four symbols into one design. My group decided on a crest split in 4, with each of our symbols in one corner. In the middle, we put all of our names. When we created our flag in the courtyard, we all helped color in the background, and helped with each of our symbols. We added some flowers around the crest.

         My team worked really well together. We all agreed on an idea, and worked together to draw and create it. Everyone had their own contribution to the group. The symbols helped represent each one of us, and when we put them together, it helped represent all of us working together. In the next activity, we will make sure to add more detail to parts of it, because the top part of our square was blank. We will still work together and cooperate. The collaboration helped us get to know our other classmates, and get to work with them on a. fun and creative project.
