Professional Article Review

About This article is about how people feel uncomfortable about reporters ambushing them electronically for information on a report. Now that people can "live tweet" events, new reporters want accurate information they can give the public and quickly. Article Review This author takes the standpoint that it is a reporters job to give accurate information to the public. He says that journalists have been saying the public misinterpret their actions,"this how news is gathered and how the pubic gets accurate information when news breaks"(Farhi). Before this news reporters would knock on doors or ask strangers. The article does not show a clear standpoint of whether or not they agree with the claim that new reporters are attacking people via social media or not. The article gives plenty of evidence that is relevant. The author summarizes what happened in Oregon and how reporters are getting backlash for trying to get information about the event.

Color Codes Today I shall teach you about hexadecimal, rgb, and rgba colors. I will also teach you how to use the rgba colors in Dreamweaver. Hexadecimal and rgb makes it easier to manipulate how dark and light a color is compared to telling Dreamweaver light blue, which could not be the right shade for you. This gives you the power to get the color you specifically need. This is especially helpful in web design so your server knows which exact color needs to be used because this is an almost universal code. Color Words: Color words are colors written is words hence "color words" You do not have as much control over the shade and tint of the color In a code you will type the color name Example: Website:   Color Words List   Hexadecimal:  The hexadecimal color code is a 6 word and or number combination.

Michaela's video . This video had input from her mom, dad, sister, and herself. There was a voice over explaining special events that happened and what was going on in the video. I would use the voice overs to explain what is happening in the video. Another element I would use is the shots that look like they are one continuous shot, but are actually two different shots. I have already learned some of the shots used in this video like, extra close up, wide shot, and medium shots. The creator did well with the continuous shots from one shot to another that looks continuous. He also did good voice overs and made good use of natural noise. The creator could have had better quality and do more varied shots of Michaela and her mom in the kitchen. Overall the video was well edited and created a good idea about Michaela's favorite sport.

Way Back When

YouTube In 2005 YouTube was created and the very first outline of the website was created. It had the same logo, but the color scheme, and layout. In 2005 the font was blue, ad the banner was grey, the only colors on the page were a royal blue, light grey, and light blue.  In the coding they mainly used tables to create the layout. In 2015 there is red icons, the font is still blue on the links to the video, but all of the banners are white. The old layout was all center aligned except for the home, my videos, my favorites, my profile were left aligned, and the sign up, log in, and help links were right aligned. Now the logo, popular links, and search bar are left aligned. The sign in and upload buttons are right aligned, but the popular videos are center aligned. The coding is mostly div tags to create the layout of the page.  Apple One of the first Apple websites was created in 1998. They did not have the Apple logo only their name and a Apple compute...

Final Review

Our Product: Shockers The Beginning Our final project was a product pitch. We had to come up with an original idea and use all of the different components we learned throughout the year to create it. We used video to create our commercial, graphic designate to create our logo, banner, and ad, web design to create a website for our product that has all the important information, and we used animation to create a 3D visual of our product. The day we started our project with our groups, we began listing off random ideas.  The Process None of our product ideas had to make sense we just wanted a list of ideas we could narrow down to one. After narrowing down our ideas we decided to go with Alex's idea of a candy that gives you superpowers. During our time in graphic design/web design we came up with a theme for our product. We wanted it to be an eighties kind of feel with bright colors. Overall we wanted our product to be kind of cheesy especially in our commercial. It took u...
