color wheel

The Project

We were given a project where we had to make a color wheel on adobe illustrator, but before we could make the color wheel we had to learn about the different colors and how there are different color combinations that work together. After we took notes we then had to start using adobe illustrator, which was pretty new for me so it took some time to figure out all of the shortcuts, shapes, and everything like that. After getting used to the program It was a pretty fun project, which was good.

What I Learned

Throughout the days that we were working on this project we learned a lot of information. We looked at the color wheel and how there are primary and secondary colors. We also looked at different color schemes like complementary which are colors across from each other, and triad colors which are three colors that make a triangle on the color wheel, not to mention schemes like analogous and split complementary. We were also taught about different types of a certain color, like hues, tints, and shades. That day I was also introduced to adobe illustrator which as I said before, was very new to me. We had to make a new file in the program and I had to remember the different shortcuts that we learned, along with the basics on how to put different shapes on the screen, fill them with colors, and add things like text into my project.

How It Went

I think that overall the project went very well. After I got used to the program and really understood what we were assigned I think that this was very fun and low-key project. At the beginning I was a little confused with how everything worked but after just a couple of minutes i got the hang of it. For next time I think that I could do a better time with my job management. I feel like I went kind of slow on this project, which was most likely because I was being introduced to something new, so this will be an easy fix as I go on to the next project.

quarter 4 final project

Our Project For our final project, the teachers gave us teams of four or five, and assigned us with the task of creating a product. This may sound easy now but trust me, it was pretty difficult and had many different components to the whole project. Not only did we have to brainstorm ideas to make the product, but after we decided on the idea of making a hair growing shampoo called Ulu Lae , we had to make sure that our product would sell. We created advertisements, animations, logos, graphic designs, commercials, and even a website so we could really show off our product to the buyers. After all of this was created, we then had to present our ideas in front of the e9 teachers and anyone else in their classes, sort of like an episode of shark tank. This project had to be very thought out, and took mainly the whole fourth quarter to create, with rotations from the e9 teachers classes around every two weeks. Many people saw the more put together side ...

When we first got into our group, it took everyone a little bit of time to figure out what symbols we would want to use. For me, I already knew that I could use a dance shoe since I am a dancer, but I wanted to use something a little bit different. By the end of class that first day I had a few options that I liked a lot, a horseshoe for good luck and a red rose for hope, balance, and promise were a couple of them.  I was thinking that good luck is always something that everyone wants, which is why I chose the horseshoe. For the rose I knew that different colors had different meanings and I came to the conclusion that the meaning of a red rose fit what I wanted the best, especially since it symbolized hope. On the second day of this project my group finally started to combine our ideas into one symbol. It took many, many sketches but we finally found one symbol that we liked. The outside part of our symbol that tied everything together was a basket, our idea was to put all...

AB Sequence Video For this this project, the main task was to make another video, but this video had different requirements then our first assignment. For this video, we had a one minute time limit, and it was all about the sequence of the video and getting from spot A to spot B. We also decided teams in a different way, instead of having two people in a group, we had four team members and each one had a different task. Personally I was the person that filmed the video, which I enjoyed doing. Overall, everyone got along in our group very well, and we all collaborated and gave each other advice, which helped the whole filming process go a lot smoother. When our groups were decided, it took a little bit of time to map out and plan exactly what we wanted to do. After a few minutes we came up with the idea that since our group had two dancers in it, that the actor could go from the classroom, around the school, and eventually ending up in the flex theater where the two group memb...
