Yesterday and today in e-Comm we took the Myers-Briggs personality test. My personality type is ESTP. ESTP stands for extravert, sensing, thinking, and perceiving. I'm 34% extravert, 1% sensing, 3% thinking, and 9% perceiving. I share a personality type with Donald Trump, Ryan Seacrest, and Taylor Swift. ESTP's are energetic and have a good sense of humor. I think this type relates to me because I'm energetic and I talk a lot. ESTP don't like long boring conversations and I don't like long boring conversations. The description of ESTP relates to me and is spot on. My personality types explains why I'm always trying something new and why I'm involved in so many activities. I'm always doing something to keep me entertained. I get bored easily if I'm not doing anything. I like to keep moving. My personality type explains why I like to be loud on the basketball courts and softball fields and at home. My uncle always complains that I'm ...

  My Animation This is my animation of my bouncing ball. I made this animation in Photoshop. We have been learning about the 12 principles of animation; squash and stretch and ease in/ ease out. I learned that by using the timeline panel everything is done frame by frame. Then you have to repeat all the steps. To me the hardest part of this project was getting all the frames in order and making sure you didn't have two or more of the same frames.  Animation Links   To learn more about animation click the link and watch the video below!   AnimationPrinciples Check out this video on ease in/ ease out! 

Yesterday, we read an article called "They loved your GPA, then they saw your Tweets." It was about social media and how more and more colleges are looking at your social media posts. The article talked about how high school seniors work hard to turn in applications to college but what they do online is affecting them in a negative way. Things that surprised me in this article was that 381 college admissions officers who answered a Kaplan telephone questionnaire said that 31 percent visited the applicant's Facebook or other social media so they could learn more about them. 30 percent of the admissions said the information they found out about them had affected them negatively. It also surprised me that most admission officers are young and technology-savvy, not older professors. One other thing they said is that students maintain two Facebook accounts and "sanitizing" there social media so it seems more appealing to colleges. Why would you not have it clean i...

This week we have been working on Photoshop. For this first image I had to resize the background and add a compass layer. After we added the compass we had to use the magic eraser to get rid of the white background. Then we centered the compass in the middle and put the opacity at  70 percent. After that I typed the word "ONW" in white with 360pt font. The font type is Impact. I centered that and then set the opacity at 60 percent. It sounds easy but, it took me a while to get it done.    This second project we practiced using the magic wand, hue adjustment, and the clone stamp tool. First I had to open a copy of the butterfly and set my background to white. Then I changed the canvas size. I selected symmetric areas from the wings and used the magic wand and adjusted the hue. I kept doing that until I had all different colors. I then used the clone stamp tools to imitate a fluttering butterfly. Thats it! This next project took me th...

A few weeks ago in e9 we had to design a personal logo that described us. We learned about what different colors and shapes mean in a logo and how it can affect the look of the design. I choose to type my initials. I made my type smaller on the "m's" because I wanted the "H" to stick out, thats also why I made it pink. Pink represents friendliness, inner peace, and harmony. I choose to enclose it all in a circle because it is known as the perfect shape. It is like pure perfection.
