ONW 1 in 2000

Image
For my ONW: 1 in 2000 video I had the pleasure to interview Isaiah Pickens. I was able to talk to him about what he did over the summer and his experiences with his trip to Minnesota. He went with about 40 other people to help out the community but also get to have fun with other excursions. The trip also happened around the time where racial tension was high because of police brutality towards a black man. When I initially wrote my voiceover, it was very short, but when I saw my other classmates writing whole paragraphs I decided to jump on the bandwagon and write more. When I was finished I ended up with about a 3-4 sentence masterpiece of a voiceover that fit the outline of his experience into about 15 seconds.  When we were shooting we had some technical difficulties. Whether it was our SD card not working, the tripod missing, or even forgetting to press record on the camera, I'd say it was a very interesting experience. We had a really good time filming the video and be...

Hexadecimal Color Sampler Page             When creating the hexadecimal color sampler we really focused on the div tags in order to create the shape and border of the colors. By figuring out the code of the colors using the rrggbb method we were able to create not only all of the colors on the rainbow but also the lighter, pastel colors of the rainbow.  Creating the colors was very easy, especially when you put them all in the div and set the div properties in the style. I could have made a background for the divs and the actual page but I felt the page looked better with a white background. Font Sampler Page       When creating the font sampler page I used much of the same coding knowledge I used for the color sampler but with font types. Because most of the code used the same sentence, all I had to do was adjust the type of font I was using for each paragraph. I labeled the Serif Fonts and Sans-Serif fonts for ea...

Personal Project Review

The assignment was created for Mr. Zuck to showcase good behavior around ONW. We demonstrated the appropriate way to check out a book in the library. We first created the story board in order to get the order of shots, we then set up the camera in various places for our multitude of shots, and once we had our shots we individually edited our videos. I learned how to use Adobe Premiere because I have never used it before and didn't know how to use it. We also learned how to manage our time in order to have time to edit and get our videos in on time. If I had more time I would have changed the moving camera shots to non moving camera shots. They didn't flow when the camera wasn't moving. I would have kept the rest the same, because I felt that the video was pretty solid otherwise. I will use the constructive criticism to help better improve my products in the future. I had an enjoyable time creating this video and had a great time collaborating with my partner...
