ESPN did a run down on the top NFL Power Rankings. I like how the producers did the graphics. Even though it wasn't a very long segment it was very interesting. The anchors use various intonation which make the audience want to listen. Also the commentators are not very negative when talking about some of the poor plays and choices the players or coaches have made.

Some things they could improve on is making some more creative backgrounds for the graphics. They could also make some of the segments a little longer. Some of the teams were not even talked about, yet their pictures were still shown.

I would still like to include some creative graphics and varied intonation. In the next package I need to include stronger voice overs and cool graphics. I learn a lot of new techniques from watching ESPN.

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.

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 ...
