Past, Present, Future


About.

This website is all about me! It starts from my past and goes all the way to my future. I created my layout on Photoshop and then completed the website on Dreamweaver. For my design I used the idea of a film reel. I chose it because I enjoy photography and I think film is hella cool.

Process.

The first step of this process required me to go onto Adobe Photoshop to create my layout and design. We did this so we could get an idea for the layout and to create our rollover images. I am not experienced with photoshop, so I learned a lot. I learned about the ruler and slicing to create separate images. It was a challenge getting my animations for rollovers saved correctly and working. I have a new disliking towards Photoshop, I prefer Illustrator.
While in Dreamweaver it was a challenge getting my rollovers to work properly and getting the layout to look good. The rollovers took a while to install because I was struggling to save them properly so when you hovered over them they would animate. The layout was a struggle because I had gaps between images and it looked bad. After the struggle, my website ended up looking decent. 

The End.

In Dreamweaver I learned about the div id called inner bottom, which allows you to layer text or images on top of another div tag. I chose to add French titles to my page because it gives my site something interesting. I do admit to using Google Translate, but it's accurate, I checked with my teacher, Madame. My background is a lens flare to go along with the picture theme. I put the center of the flare at one end so it wouldn't be too distracting. It adds subtle flare, ha get it? If I were to do this again I would change the rollover. There is a large gap between the text and the top of the page because I needed room for the rollover to go down. It took a while to get it right, but it worked in the end.

Short Film Strangers

Image
Our group originally chose Courtney's script, but after shooting we realized that the footage was bad and trying to do a party scene would not work. Instead we chose my script, but revised it in order to be able to shoot it as efficiently as possible. My script was originally about a boy and girl who both suffered from social anxiety and together they are able to work on it and overcome it.  The pre-production process was rushed due to our time restraints. Courtney spent a day revising the script to reduce the amount of locations we had to go to. I called a couple coffee shops to see if we could film there, but ended up filming everything at JCCC. I also created shot lists for our shoot day in order to try and give some structure and efficiency. Courtney was our actress and she found Danny for our actor. I was the cinematographer and editor for the film. Originally Grayson was the cinematographer, but was unable to make the shoot.  On a Saturday Courtney, Danny, Wes, a...

The Hidden Premiere

My Role  My role in The Hidden was costume designer. It was difficult to plan all the outfits in advance due to filming dates being moved around so I did not have the ability to plan in advance as much as I would have liked. it was also kind of difficult to come up with a variety of costumes that weren't boring and repetitive. I learned that it was important to communicate with the actors in advance and have good communication with the director so we are on the same page for the vibe of it. I think my work was alright, it didn't make much of an impact because it was everyday clothes. I have used my time 75/100 productively. Sometimes I would work on graphic/photoshop projects in my free time or client work. I watch movies and a variety of shows outside of class. I think I am decent at time management and leadership. I complete most of my projects on time and can lead a project/group when necessary. I could improve on my collaboration with others especially with talking to n...
