Oh The Things I Learned in Term 2



This term was a very exciting term. We learned so many things. From new techniques, new styles of art and new ways of telling a story. We also got to play around more with iMovie, although our encounter this time with iMovie was stressful we got to experiment more and discover new things about it. I had fun with the Macro assignment where we learned how to take extreme close up shots. We learned how to use a magnified glass to help us.  

I want to learn more about iMovie and what other possibilities that can be accomplished on iMovie. It would be fun if we got to make our own movies on a topic, but we unfortunately do not have enough machines. I'm looking forward to what we will be learning about on Publisher. I really want to see how the layouts work and all that.

On the Things I Learned this Term 2!


In Term 2, I've learned a lot from using Photoshop, camera and Imovie. I've learned how to make to make a pop art like Andy Warhol using Adobe Photoshop. I've also used Photoshop to enhance the photo that I've taken using the cameras for my Macro Madness and Photo Essay assignments. I've learned more thing about Imovie. I've learned how to zoom in to a certain things, to put video clips and edit them using the program, and to cut the video or picture to just keep the sounds in the background. During the process of making these four assignments, I had the chance to explore more by using the camera  and using the different shots and angles. 

For Term I would like to explore Photoshop more. I would like to learn how to put pictures into a picture that people would not recognize that I used photoshop. I would also want to learn how to animate a pictures.

Macro Madness

iMovie Reflection 

Andy Warhol

Photo Essay

I learned a lot in term 2. I think our first activity we did was Photo essay and I learned how to make a story with pictures, it was really difficult for me to make my story. After finishing our photo essay, we learned how to ghost with the camera and practiced it for a few class, it was really cool but we learned that we need bright color to make it stand out. After that we did Andy Warhol which means we had to go full model to do this, but I learned how to use cutout in Photoshop

Oh The Things I Learned In Term 2






What I Learned in Term 2:
     
       The things that I learned in Term 2 was editing pictures like Andy Warhol and exploring more of Photoshop. Before this class I never used Photoshop at all and I was introduced and exposed more to it. I didn't know how to edit photos and make the colors stand out more. But with Photoshop I can make good pictures and make them look a little better because of the colors I make stand out. Also, removing the background and changing the colors on a person and making it look very artistic. I also learned to use the manual focus on the camera. I never used the cameras we use in this class but it taught me the different ways of using it and manual focus being one of them.

       Next term I wanna learn more things on iMovie and how to use it better and be an expert at it. Especially when it comes to editing videos with all the effects and making it even better. Also, being more exposed to photoshop and not just with editing but making pictures look even better and even more interesting. I wanna make a very boring picture into something really interesting and make the viewers see the details that aren't noticed a lot. 

Thing I learned in term 2

I learned many things this term. This term i learned how to use PHOTOSHOP! I was very impressed on how easy it was. I hear magazines say that people get "photoshopped" and I'd always wonder that photoshopping would be so hard but its actually really easy. More things that i learned how to do was use imovie, do macro photography, manual focus, and get a better understanding on cameras.

Next term, I want to learn how to make the yearbook BETTER than the other years!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!




The Things I Learned in Term 2


First of all, I finally learned how to edit a video on iMovie, which is something that I have never done before. I actually learned how to do simple animations using nothing but Google drive and screenshots that I put into iMovie. I learned somewhat more in Photoshop with the Andy Warhol assignment, and that removing the background of a picture can be a pain especially when you have a lot of hair. I also learned how to use the manual focus on a camera which is also a pain. Also taking a bunch of photos and somehow turning it into a story is probably the most painful.

For the next term, I want to learn how to actually use Photoshop, and not just adding filters. Although adding brightness and contrast might be enough, I want to learn how to blend pictures together and use all of the expert tools. If possible, I do want to use iMovie again and learn new things on making a video. I also want to work a lot on the yearbook so I can have something to look back on and say I was a part of, when I leave Sargent Park.

Term 2 and stuff. ;D

Links to projects

Macrotography

Photo Essay

Andy Warhol


I'll just write the movie reflection here.

As always, it was a good experience. Well not really because it was a different version and was rather tedious. Especially when we had to record stuff and find footage. It was okay I guess.

In this term, we worked more on projects, and worked with the cameras a lot. We used what we learned in term 1 to photo edit and enhance our projects.





Sophia's What I learned in term 2!

iMovie Reflection




In term 2 I learned a lot of techniques using the camera.We learned how to ghost, macro, and to do manual focus. In ghosting we needed to change the aperture setting and needed to play around with the camera. For most of the techniques we did were all about playing with the camera and how to be creative with it. I also learned how to edit in Photoshop using the Andy Warhol technique. The Andy Warhol technique is basically making our photos look cartoon-like and add bright colours to them to make them stand out.We also had to make a video about our school which was a bit stressful but we managed to finish it. I learned how to use iMovie and transition the videos together make it fit.  

For the next term i would like to play more around Photoshop and learn more techniques with the camera. Maybe work on the yearbook more and take more memorable pictures for the yearbook. So when people go back to see it when they are older they will remember the time they had in Sargent Park.

Things I learned in Term 2

In term 2, we did:
The first thing we did on Term 2, is making a photo essay. It was hard to think of a topic, because most of the ideas I got were already taken so I just thought that maybe I should choose something I really know about; so I chose art. Then, we did the Andy Warhol with the Photoshop. It was fun making it because we could pose wacky poses then edit the colors to make it more lively. 


Oh the Things I Learned in Term 2!


In this term I learned how to take photos from different angles. I also learned new and different things about photo shop in the making of my Andy Warhol pop art. I learned lots of stuff from Imovie too like adding photos, zooming in on the video, splitting clips and lots more. It was a lot of fun playing with Macro Madness, in this I learned that you can make anything even little things look interesting. In the photo essay I learned that you can take pictures and turn them into an essay or a story

In the process of making the yearbook I want to learn 1) How to make pictures into a collage using adobe photoshop and make them into an object like a torch or a bottle. 2) How to wrap stuff around an object like a set of clips around a torch 3) I want to learn how to apply a gradient color using photoshop. These are some things I want to learn during the term.

Here are the things I have done in term 2:

What I have learned.

        In this term, the Andy Warhol assignment was very educational, here were many aspects of Photoshop that were still unclear to me, however by doing that assignment I learned how to use the lasso tool to select an object from your picture, and to add a new background behind the selected image.  For the Sargent Park video, (We are Sargent Park) I learned how to use iMovie, and how to speed up a clip as well as changing the background music. I also learned how to edit certain clips in iMovie, like cutting out particular scenes and sounds.  For the Photo Essay assignment I learned how to take more thoughtfull pictures, and how to follow and convey a particular story line through pictures. With the Macro Madness assignment I learned how to take extreme close ups with a magnifying glass and how to manually focus a camera because sometimes auto focus does not cooperate when you are taking shots from such a close angle.

What I would like to learn:

        For this next term I would like to work more with Photoshop because I know that there is still a lot to learn from that tool.  I would like to use Photoshop for more than just enhancing images (if that is even possible). I would also like to learn how to make interesting formats for a book (yearbook) and how to make everything tie together well, because as you stated before, we will only individually do a couple pages on our own. There seems to be so many things that I would like to learn in the field of graphics, and digital art. I would love to learn more on how to make digital animations, work with more typeography, and maybe with some more filming.

Stuff I learned in term 2!! :D

Some stuff we learned include Macro photography, making a movie, making a photo essay, Andy Warhol pop-art pictures

Project Links:
Pop Art
 Photo Essay
Macro Photography
Movie Reflection

In this term we learned how to take really close pictures and make them look good. We also learned how to make a movie (took some time). It took sometime for us to understand how to make a movie. Making pop-art was the probably the most fun I had because of how unique just one photo could be. It was also the most frustrating because confusing the instructions were at first. When we set out to make a photo essay, I didn't know what to do. So I just took pictures of my gaming set and some turned out fine. I also had a lot of fun writing the essay of my photo essay.

Photo Essay Assignment- http://gctatsp2014.blogspot.ca/2014/12/denices-photo-essay.html

I've learned many things mostly on Photoshop, but not so much in iMovie. I learn how to make an Andy Warhol on Photoshop, putting filters on the photos on Photoshop, and how to adjust/ enhance colour/ hue saturation. I learned somethings on  iMovie like deleting the sound, and putting effects. And I also learned that taking pictures of sunsets in winter is not a good idea.

Even though I didn't really participate on the movie I still had fun, like going back to the gr. 6 rooms/hallways , though I felt bad. The Marco Assignment was easy but hard to take the picture because it's always blurry and it's hard to take a picture of things that is hard to tell what is. The Andy Warhol Assignment was kinda hard/confusing because of the instructions that was given, but I got the hang on it, it was fun because I got to learn many other things on Photoshop that I didn't know about. The Photo Essay was hard because it's hard to pick a topic and a story that make sense and that fits. And I don't have that many interest except for anime and food but I don't cook it, I eat it. And it's freezing cold, it's hard to take pictures at night in winter! because I was shaking.

Oh The Thing I Learned in Term 2

Term 2 Assignments:

Photo Essay 

Andy Warhol

Macro Madness

We are Sargent Park Reflection


In Term 2, I learned more things about what Photoshop can do through the Andy Warhol assignment. I also learned more about Photoshop by editing my pictures for projects like my macro madness and photo essay. I also learned how to use iMovie through the "We are Sargent Park" video. Before that project, I had no idea how to work in iMovie. But after a stressful month of editing, at least I know how to edit a simple video.

Next term, I would like to learn more about Photoshop. I've always been fascinated by people who know how to use the program. I wan't to learn everything about any Photoshop application out there. Mainly because I want to mess around and create weird things. Learning how to use Photoshop like a professional is what I'd want to learn in Term 3 for my personal enjoyment.

Things I've Learned In Term 2

The things I've learned this term 2 :
  • Photo Essay
  • Andy Warhol
  • Macro Madness
  • Movie
Photo Essay:
http://gctatsp2014.blogspot.ca/2014/12/andreas-photo-essay.html

What I learn about photo essay is taking pictures in different angles. It's really hard to come up with a topic, if you're the type of person with lots of interest. But I just picked art Because it's one of my hobbies. It's easier because it's already prepared, I mean because if I choose something like baking, I still need more stuff just to take some pictures.

Andy Warhol:
http://gctatsp2014.blogspot.ca/2015/01/andreas-andie-warhol.html

What I learn about Andy Warhol is to put different kinds of color around my face and etc. But first I was having difficulties in where there's like part of my face that has the same color, it automatically selects that whole area the same person, but I don't want it to be the same color. So what i did is I carefully select it with pencil selector or whatever what it's called, and just draw where I want it to be selected. Then taking  pictures, it's not that hard, as long as you have a blank background.
Macro Madness:
http://gctatsp2014.blogspot.ca/2015/02/macro-madness-assignment.html

What I learn about macro madness is you can actually use a magnifying glass to even more zoom in into the object your focusing on. I actually didn't know about until we worked on this assignment. It's sometime hard to take pictures because, sometimes you found a really nice object and take a photo of it, it sometimes end up being blurry (like some of my pictures). It was fun working on this project.

Movie:
http://gctatsp2014.blogspot.ca/2015/02/andreas-sargent-park-video-reflection.html

What I learn about I movie is teamwork. Well I did a little computer work. But mostly teamwork. Taking photos was hard too. Asking classes is we can take some pictures. If we forget to take picture from the classes upstairs we have to go back up. But i had a lot of fun.


What I want to learn about in the last term is to animate or maybe to more effect stuff. I don't know why but I just really want to learn to animate in a easier way. But maybe just learning stuff that I haven't known is fine too.

Oh the things I learned in Term 2!

Lizley's Sargent Park Video Reflection



Sargent Park Video Reflection


I think the hard part we did in doing this is taking the pictures and videos. And I guess for me is to think of ideas in the first place. Because the good ideas were already taken and the ones I thought of requires a lot of time and may be nearly impossible to do with the programs we should use. And it took us some time get photos and videos to finish because we have to take those on certain times. Like when we have to take videos on 3:25-3:35 so we could record kids leaving school. So I missed my bus that day (that's the pain =T). I feel funny though in taking photos because I felt like a cameraman from a news channel.

Then, we're gonna think of what class is the next class we should take photos of. Because some groups might have been to that class already. And then pile them all up on a folder, view them one at a time, then decide which ones are gonna be used and then edit stuff. And also in the video editing process, there's a lot of people in our class and jobs are just few.
