Our Animation Story

Our focus statement is ''friend solve conflict". I think shows our story because Maceo tells us his personal story about going to Florida for a competition. It also tells us how friend's can help you threw certain things like a competition. Another way it tells our story is that quitting is not the solution. So far this is a great film i think and it will become a even greater film soon.

Our audience will learn that having good or even great friends is very good because they will help you threw life and competitions like the one in our story that we are going to show you threw animation and filming. The way our audience will learn is threw experience. Also another way they will learn is threw watching the film and seeing the out come of working together and being successful in being a team with your teammates.

I think that the best moment as a team was when we all filmed and animated together. Also when we teamed up and worked together and accomplished things together as a team! I also think that it is a good experience that we could work together to accomplish more as a team. I think the worse thing that our team Me,Ehu,Maceo, and Brook is when we couldn't figure out what to film and that took up alto of our time to film, do work, and also wright down our story. Another thing that our team struggled in is when we were filming. For example when we were filming a scene and we were having trouble were and how to film the scene. But we worked together and figured it out as a team and our film look's great now! thank you team!

Animation Outtakes

Two interesting things about all of my teammates are. Eheu is talented, funny, caring, And a good person to be around. Brook is a good friend to be around, Also very nice and kind to other people. Then there is Maceo. I do not know Maceo very well but i know him enough to say he is a great person who is interested about other people and also inspires other people for what they think.

Stop motion animation is when your have someone or something that stays still and you take a picture of then and then that move forward again and then your take another picture. And at the end you have a video of that person sliding across the floor of moving really fast in a weird was. A GIF is a short film that has about 10 frames per second, so it plays 10 pictures every second and it goes on for 3 seconds to 20 seconds. So if you do the math 10 pictures times 3 seconds thats 30 pictures for only 3 seconds of showing thats a lot! Also a GIF can go on a loop so it plays for ever!

Are group is telling Maceos' story and the reason we are it because it is one of the most interesting stories and also it relates to life more than telling a story about one of the other people in the group. I thing the reason that the audience should care about this story is because the story is important to Maceo and it shows you a life struggle.

Typography Images

Typography is the art of arraigning type of processing words and printing from it. Typography photos can be used with Typography to make an amazing picture that will show the person and show inside of them what there caricature traits are in words in there body. This picture is made into a lasting image because it shows how the person in the photo stands out and what there caricatures traits are in the photo.

My biggest challenge in this project is the steps to put the words in the image. This was really hard for me but I over came it be asking my friends and looking on the focus wall to find out what to do for the steps to put the words in the image. I also tried to find out what the black layers are and how to put them on the layer screen. But I still feel I still have some of my biggest challenges up to come in this typography photo experiment. For that I will also find a great way to over come the challenge that is thrown at me.

The three examples I have below are all typography photos that I worked hard on. Also I learned something from making theses photos in photoshop. Then how this teacher typography photos are made in photoshop also. All the things i am learning in photoshop with my peers! The difference in my photoshop photos are the typography one the teacher one and my self. Overall i like the ME portrait more!

Double Exposed Portraits

portrait photography is when you take a picture of the persons whole face and showing all there features from there shoulders and up. portrait photography doesn't really relate to profile photography that much but if I had to pick some things that make them similar it would be that is shows there face and there expressions but profile photography only shows the bridge of the persons nose. silhouetting is when you take a picture of someone with a lot of light behind them and it only shows the persons outline and there all black with light around theme.

To make a double exposure picture in photoshop you have to open photoshop go to file scrips load files into stack. I think the resign you would want two make a double exposure photo is because it look really good and an amazing photo when your finished.

The symbolism in my two photos I would say is some of the color and how we used double exposer in the pictures. The quality of my work could of improved by me taking a little bit better photo quality. I think that the pictures in my multi exposure are better quality than the pictures in my double exposure. Witch makes my final look beater than my draft photo in quality. Over all I am very happy about theses pictures!

HDR Photography

HDR photography is a way to make your photos look more like real life and also to show more shadows in the picture that you take. You should use HDR Photography when you want to show more contrast and depth in the picture. I personally LOVE HDR photography to me it is more fun then single shot photography and over all it looks a lot beater over all. And so far what I learned about HDR is amazing and i cant wait to learn more soon.

To use HDR step by step you take a bunch of pictures from really low exposure to really hight exposure and then go into your photoshop press edit > because A different > merge to HDR pro. HDR and automatic HDR is very different because auto HDR you just take a picture and it automatically has one picture and HDR you have to take seven or more pictures at different exposure and at the end it comes out to be one really good picture.

For these pictures below i had to take my computer out go to a place were there is a good view of landscape. Then find a person that can stay still for at least ten seconds and after I take the pictures I put them in Photoshop and merge to HDR. Then i take the pictures and put them in my blogger as you see here. I also love how you can use HDR superimpose

Movie Trailer Critique

This project was about a girl named Alex, character is very brave and determined when she puts her mind into something. In this project we had to record a video and edit the clips in final cut pro, and also in photo shop we had to make a poster for the trailer. This would not of been done with just one person. But thanks to Maya, Aedan, and Kaylynn. Our trailer plan is very helpful for helping us plan when and were we should record the film. I contributed to this movie trailer with writing the story and helping it become what it is today.

The requirement for this trailer were that we had to be done by a Cretan date and also we had to put Cretan transitions in the trailer and also the trailer had to be between one minute and thirty seconds and two minute and thirty seconds. Me and my crew completed all of the requirements for the trailer and i feel like we did really good in them. I felt like we did a good job on the trailer because it turned out good and i enjoyed it very much.

I feel like the class did a great job of deciding what our grade would be and how well we edited the trailer. I am also happy for what grade we got for the trailer. I feel like we could of did a little bit better than what we did , but i also feel we learned a lot from what we did with this trailer.

Our score we got for our trailer

this was our plan on what we were planing on filming, and the characters plots.

Movie Poster Promo

The main character in this movie poster you see is a boy named Alex. Alex is a boy that over comes his fears of big waves. Alex is in the ocean bogie boarding and getting a barrel. The beach that Alex is at is called lumihai a local beach in Kauai Hawaii.

The title to my movie is called "get over it". The title is trying to say get over your fears and face them. Also in my movie poster I said "a boy who over come his fear of big waves!" with i'm also trying to say to face your fears and over come them. In the movie poster I also said "in theaters soon!" when i say this i'm trying to intrigue people to come watch the movie. kerning is when you adjust the spacing between characters in a more professional use. When i use kerning I usually use it to make the words pop out more at the person that is reading the words.

The layer effects I put on my poster make the poster its self pop out more so people can look at it more. Over all i think it is a great poster.
