My Mash up

This Mash up project has been the best thing we have done in the entire year. I really got excited to do this. When I started to use this program I was lost. I didint know how to use it until I started to ask my classmates how to do certain things. For my Mash up I used three different songs. They are: Celebration from Maddonna, fight for you from Morgan Page, and shooting Star from Kevin Rudolf. My mash up is two and a half minutes long. It took me two classes to finish it. In the middle of my Mash up I mixed different parts of the same song to get a different sound and in my opinion this two noices matched with each other.. I think that this project was in the middle when talking about difficulty. In one day I learned how to use the preogram properly. I think that this project was fun and educative.

group Mash ups

I think that the Mash ups of my teammates were great. They were short but with good quality. I can tell that they used the time that was given in class. Many of them used really good music that matched with each other. They used many effects like the fade out and fade in.Most of my team used from two to five songs in their Mash up. Some people didn't do it so I cant talk about them. In my opinion the Mash ups were interesting and exciting.

My 1st animation

Overall the creation of my first animation was frustrating... all of it! It wasn't easy at all. Being able to put music was hard. But I was able to overcome my problem by asking some of my friends who were already able to do it. Although it was a lot of work, I liked the result of my video. Its simple but funny. I wouldn't change a thing of it. If I had to make the video longer, I would make my little man do some more exercises. Such as: push ups, jumping jacks, and if possible maybe integrate a machine and make him use it.

Typing Master Scores

When I first started to type in this class I was the slowest in the class. Know everything has changed. Now I am faster than many people. from 14 WPM ( Words Per Minute)I advanced to 17 WPM. I think this can help me in the future. If I work in an office I am going to need to know how to type fast so I can have my work done. The only thing that hasn't improve is my accuracy. I am starting to have many mistakes in my paragraph typing. My goal this year is to score 20 WPM and have 95% in my accuracy. I am sure that I can reach it if I really put time on it. I have to practice more in my house and class to reach this score. my guess of what am I going to score next week is 15 WPM and 85% in accuracy. I really think I'm going to have a good grade in this class because of Typing Master.

Live underwater

I think my project is interesting and it could work for the humanity in the future. In the future, when the ice melts the people in Earth would need a place to live so I think they could use this. the process of this picture's making is not as hard as it looks. for the buildings I just erased parts of it and cut some tubes and place them in the back layer. If I could change something I would put more things on it. it took me about half an hour to finish the whole thing. I think this artifacts are going to be used for the human's survival.


I think that Laura`s artifact was well done. it looks like she spent time working on it.
i liked that she attached the machine into a rollercoaster. Another good idea that i saw
is that she used the planat Earth for backround.the artifact being in space makes it look
more futuristic because the expeditions to space are not common. the last thing I like is the color of the backround. it has something that caches your attention. In my opinion this project
was a good effort from Laura.

Laura`s project is a great job and I think it would work in the future. the people of the
world could see one of the most fascinating things people have discovered. the scientists
can also be helped with this machine. They can come and go to the different places
in the universe without using spaceships. The machine can get back to Earth if someone
needs to get back . I think that is an interresting fact because in the spaceships of today the people have to stay as long as they are told to. I also thought that the floating sign is also a
good idea. In my opinion, this artifact could work in the future.

tutorial 2


In this tutorial called "Lighning a gaint elephant" I got many ideas for my artifact. One of them is use different layers with different contrast and brightness. Then i learn to convine them to form a different color. this idea is going to be effective for my work. I am going to use this on my project by using the light in the picture to make a reflection in the dome.

tutorial 1


In this tutorial called how "I created a raspberry frog" I learned ha few things i didn't know before. One of them is how to change the opacity to see the image underneath it and make a form of it. I also learned that by using Liquify you can change it into another form. I am going to definitely use this techniques for my artifact of the future. I am going to use this technique to make an robot out of a material that is not common in technology.
