Scratch Game Design

 I wanted my game to be easy to play and also fun. I also wanted people to think the characters and background were fun too. I wanted the players to like the game. I also wanted it to be funny. The game is easy to play, colorful, and fun. The background is balloons, and you are the unicorn chasing the bouncy ball, and the goal is to touch the ball one hundred times. Then you win! To control the unicorn, you use the arrow keys to move and try to chase the ball which automatically moves by itself. To see how I made my game go to Scratch and see inside. I hope you enjoy playing my game!

I wanted people who saw my game to think it was cool and colorful. I wanted them to like the game and enjoy playing it. I wanted them to like the theme and think it is funny and cool.

Some things about my game is the background. It is fun and colorful. The scene is a party and there is a rainbow of colors. There are a bunch of balloons and it is really fun to look at. Just like the background, my characters are colorful and fun as well. I wanted my game to look like a fun, happy rainbow. Looks like I succeeded! I also wanted my game not just to be fun to look at, but also fun to play. In the game you are the amazing unicorn chasing the orange bouncy ball.  Once you get to one hundred points you WIN! I hope you think my game is colorful too!

On my plat former game, one of the best features is my starfish. I wanted my game's theme to be really cool and have a great color scheme. I used pink on turquoise and pink on black. It ended up looking really nice. However my characters did not end up moving smoothly. My game did not end up functioning very well, but i'm still working on it!

I think my best code that I did on this project was when I was working on the unicorn. Some parts of it were very complex and hard to do but I did it and I think it works very good. I had to get the unicorn to move smoothly around the stage. The orange ball was easier. It just had to move randomly around the stage. The concept was to chase the ball and touch it 20 times.

Invention Commercial

My teams main goal was to make the commercial funny, while also showing the products features. We had to show what the product did, but we had to show it in a creative way. We had to come up with an idea to make it entertaining to watch. We had to spark everyone's interest and keep it. I personally wanted our commercial to be very well made and good. We also had to stay within the time frame given to us. Overall I think we reached our goal. I hope you think so too.

My favorite team moment when we were making our commercial was when we were filming. We were at the beach, and we had a lot of fun. We were dressed up in those silly costumes, and laughing, and we had a lot of fun. We had on the silliest things. A hat made out of a cup, a dinosaur costume, a bunch of other crazy costumes. Alexis even had a caveman costume! That was my favorite part of making the whole commercial. We had a lot of fun making our commercial, and we hope you have just as much fun watching it.

While we were editing we all did a lot of different jobs. I did the music and some voice overs, Alexis did transitions and voice overs Teresa did some voice overs. We all mainly arranged the B-Roll. We worked very hard on our project. All of us did some sound effects. Sometimes we filmed at school but a Alexis and I filmed outside of school at the beach. Teresa could not make it but we still succeeded and did our very best. In the end I think we did very well. So enjoy our commercial for...the Enviro-Protector!

I am very proud of the results for our commercial. I think we did really good. And a lot of the class seems to think so too! A lot of people thought of commercial was funny and creative, and that it was good quality and that it showed how it works, and what is does very well. Some people even voted ours best overall commercial. I am proud of myself and my team, and I hope my team feels the same.

Composition Scavenger Hunt

I think the most important composition technique is both of the rule of thirds, subject and scenery. I think these are important because, photographers use it a lot. Also it is important because it makes the subject stand out because they are only in part of the picture. The viewer looks at the subject. That is why I think the Rule of Thirds technique is the most important.

 
The most difficult composition technique to me is forced foreground. A lot of times it is hard on certain cameras to get just that one object clear. It takes a lot of work and carefulness. One single wrong move and the only thing clear could be the background. You have to position the camera exactly right, and you have to get the exact angle. I can improve on this by being careful and cautious. I can also work hard on it.

My teammates are Alexis and Teresa. For our composition project, we all filmed, and spoke. When we were editing I did music, Teresa did titles, and Alexis worked on transitions. we all put the shots in order, and worked hard. To speak for my whole group, I think we did really good on our project. We worked together and in the end, we created something awesome.
