Professional Project Review

      In this video a young High school student, named Micheala Gertner is being interviewed about weight lifting.  In her family weight lifting is very common, her sisters and he father compete. Although, she wieght lifts she is still your typical teenager. (CNN Montano)
      The video is primarily close ups with other shots to fill in the time.  A lot of shots are repeated to show the full action. Most of these shots are very well framed and everything flows together. For example, when she was lifting weights the action started with a close up and ended with the exact same close up.
      The story told was the story of a teenage girl who participates in an unusual sport, it was told through an interview. One element from this video I would apply to my own work is the amount of close up there in comparison to the other shots. One thing that is applied in this video that I already learned is framing.
       Based on the work I have seen the creator did a great job on framing he shots. The creator also did a great job on making the story flow together. However, the creator could improve on using less close ups and becoming more creative with the types of shots. By doing these things it would dramatically improve the video because it would create a different version and make it more interesting.
       Overall the video was very well framed and creatively shot. I would be more interested in it if it was more about how she go into weight lifting and what goes into a daily work out. In general it needed to be researched  more.  Some of the shots needed to be longer. In conclusion the video was good.   Micheala Gertner Video

The scope of this project was to create ordinary objects out of shapes. By doing this we created an object just out of simple shape that we normally wouldn't think would go together. My process throughout this project was to create something relatable and that go well together. Along the way I learned how use the path finder tool and  how to use the  live paint bucket. Next time I will make a different item and use different told.

Patterns

This is a repeating pattern. For this pattern I used the polygon tool and rotated it into a diamond. Next time I will improve my project by using smart guides.  My process through out this project was trying to come up with a creative pattern and using the correct colors. I also had problems aligning the shapes equally. This is a radial pattern. A radial pattern rotates from the center to the outside. I created this pattern by first making a circle then using the direct select tool to cut out pieces of the circle. Then I rotated those pieces thus creating a spiral pattern.

Professional Project Review

This article was about a tragic event that happened at community college in Roseburg, Oregon. In Oregon an armed gunman opened fire on the campus. Nine people were killed and at least seven were wounded. The article focuses on the reporters of the incident and how demanding they were of people to get an interview with them. Many people saw this as disrespectful and rude but the reporters were just doing their job. The author does not take a strong stand for either side of the argument. He mainly discusses both sides and does not state which side is right or wrong. He agrees with the victims that it is rude but he also agrees that it is their job and that they don't mean to come off rude, but it is their job to get information quickly as possible and give it to the public. The Aritcle is not a strong source if you are looking for information of the shooting but it is strong public opinion on the topic. It discusses how reporters are too demanding of people and come off strong ...
