CTE Expo Reflection Journal

  The CTE Expo is where freshman come to visit and decide on which CTE Academy to chose, and sophomores, juniors, seniors present their projects to the freshmen. By doing this the freshmen get an idea of how it'll be once they choose to join that academy and also get an idea of what they can hope to accomplish.

  The CTE Expo is important because not only does it benefit the freshmen but also the people presenting. It can benefit the freshmen because they can decide on which academy to choose and it can benefit the presenters because they can learn social skills and handshakes. Its an experience that is highly educational, it may not be academic but it is definitely educational and important.

  During the CTE Expo 2017 the freshmen got to see what others were doing in visual design and video academies. The thing that went wrong was that the freshmen don't listen, we can improve it by shaking hands or relate to them in some way to make yourself more friendly and inviting, then they might listen. It went right when I did what I am supposed to which is to present to them and shaking hands. It will continue to go well if I treat them with respect and kindness.

  The CTE Expo can help me and my classmates because it helps us learn how to socialize and communicate effectively. Learning to communicate and socialize is very important in my opinion. This can go a long way maybe even far into the future when you have to present something and you remember how to socialize effectively and be more convincing.

Blending Images

This particular blending images technique enhances the overall design of the medium by using different colors which relates to the name of the medium itself since colors are related to art. The design of the text is important as well since it shows creativity and enhances the overall design even more.                                                  The following text filled with image technique enhances its overall design by blending the image within the text unlike the example on top. It also enhances the design by using and image that is related to the text since an image of water is related to the text "water".

Windows 10 vs Mac Sierra

             There are many differences between mac and windows. The main difference is the user interface. For example, In mac OS there is a dock and in windows there is the task bar. The two look very different in terms of design. Also, Most software are built to run on windows and so mac OS is limited to the software it can run but that doesn't mean mac cant do anything, It can, its just that some software don't run on mac OS. The user experience for the both are great and overall they are just operating systems. Not a big deal.

Reflection Journal for Lab 7

 In lab 7, I used different kinds of filters on the same photo 6 times. The objective of the lab was most likely to see what each kind of filter does to a picture. To do this lab I created 5 copies of the same photo and used 1 different photo on the top right. On each photo I used 6 different types of filters, Artistic, Sketch, Blur, Distort, Liquify, and Diffuse filter. I added clouds in the background and lens flare.   I used a software called Photoshop to complete this lab. This lab is relevant to web design because it shows you what different filters do. But in general, the key thing that I learned is to try different things since it can give you different and sometimes better results. In design, trying new things is important. Sticking to the same thing all the time makes it boring. I will use these skills in the future when I want to apply a certain filter to a certain photo.
