We are at the last day of class before exams, which means all make up work and late work is due. I'm on a crunch right now, i have a few assignments i have to turn in. At the time being i can see the light, the end , i can see me passing. Some of my teacher have been very cooperative, i don't want to say any names..... Mr.B...... but i appreciate them alot, they have reminded me, and they have given me hope. Like i said the end is near, next week the exams are taking place. I have decided to take the week off from work to focus on school. i hope i can turn this around and be successful.

we are already in 4 week into quarter 4, so that means progress reports. My grades aren't looking promising, I'm very worried and disappointed in my self. I put my self in this stressful position and i cant see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm glad i have Mr. B as my teacher, he is very helpful. He always worries for me and my wellbeing, which many other teacher could learn. I'm hoping i can turn this around to prove myself to Mr. B, so he knows he didn't waste his time talking to me and helping me.
I am sure many of you have heard about the game Minecraft, has been a popular game among us gamers.
Minecraft is very fun, time passes very fast although when I finish I feel exhausted and tired. Minecraft is one of a kind, adventurous, survival, and overall fun. You are literally in the middle of nowhere with nothing but your intelligence. In the beginning, you will collect wood from a tree, which you will use to make a bundle of sticks. Then you will attach a little more wood to these sticks and make a pickaxe. With this pickaxe, you can extract stones to help build a house. And so the game cycle continues. You will spend your time exploring the world around you and collecting what you can to help you create what you need. Over time, you will learn more about how to find and create more complex materials and tools, combining them to create new and complex creations. It is a great investment of time and research and will probably frustrate even the most experienced player from time to time, but the reward can be satisfactory. the objective of the game is to defeat the ender dragon. Over all I give this game 4/5 stars! these 4 months has been a roller coaster for me. from covid to bills, then school. most of this year i have been stressed out, with thing at school and in my personal life. i am the older brother so im expected to do many things my siblings dont/cant do. my grades here at school are the lowest they have ever been, for so many years i have been a "a" honor roll student or a "a","b" honor roll student. its very hard to go to school in a different environment. the district has decided that we should not go to school for the reminder of the year, which i strongly oppose. for many reasons i decided to start a job i was working about 50 hours per week in the summer. i accumulated many absences, and thats because i would work instead of going to school. and the small times i went to school i did at my job during my break.
Mr. B and the class started with premiere pro like 2 weeks ago. I can't say much, but relatively it is easy and I'm sure the work I'm doing is nowhere near a professional level. Premiere Pro is heavy software meaning it needs good hardware to run without hiccups, so I decided to use my computer which is more power full than the school computers. So most of my assignments I do are at home due to this. I've had used the software before we go to it in class, and I didn't know how to do anything that was until Mr. B showed us some basic skills. I got my first job of editing a video for someone on youtube and got paid $50 for two hours of work. I knew how to do most of the work, but there was someplace that i was lost, so I looked up tutorials and how to do it. In conclusion, i believe that Premiere Pro is a great software to understand, and I'm thrilled I will get the chance to experience it more.
The five-night game was an independent game developed by Scott Cawthon and in my experience this game was scary. The game was very fun and would put you in different situations, such as a sandwich with two animatronics. The game would scare my life, especially if you run out of energy.The story and plot of the game are varied and unclear, but according to the evidence of the game, there was a murderer who was one of the animatronic costumes and killed 5 children and then placed their bodies in each animatronic in the pizzeria. The plot of the game is set in the pizzeria called Freddy's Fazbear pizzeria. And you, the protagonist, were long to be a guard during a night shift. On his first day, he meets the animatronics who try to enter his office and try to kill him. you have to survive from noon at 6 am and you have 5 nights to live and survive. There are bonus modes such as night 6 and night 7 as well as night of costumes with which you can maximize the level of the animatronics to 20. The game is varied Basic you are in an office with two doors that can be opened and closed button and you also have a light in both doors. You also have a camera to watch the pizzeria at night. Moreover, it has a limited amount of battery that you can use if the battery runs out, the pizzeria goes out and remains in danger because the animatronics are still Roman and Freddy, the main animatronic, can kill him. the visual is variable, it seems realistic but also cartoon-like, mainly in gray gradient but with color. There is a lot of medium around you. The audio is varied and mysterious can give you goosebumps and can increase the thriller of the game. In total, I would give it 4.5 stars because of incorrect interpretations of the game. The argument is also not very clear. But overall it is a great game to play. I recommend this Five Nights to Freddy's game
Interpolation is a tool many people use to make animations from key frame to key frame.
Back when animation was just getting started we had to make every frame, then as we became more advance we made a tool that makes a computer make the transition in space all by its self. After this tool became popular Animations more common, more people were making them. Many people such as Disney took advantage of this and created entertainment therefore making money for the company. It is common to be nervous or curious when new things are introduced to you. It was no different this time I wasn’t sure at the beginning, I can’t remember how many time I got frustrated because the animation was not doing what I wanted it to do. I had to rewatch many tutorials, I spent some of my own time to figure out some good ideas to use with this new form of animation that I learned. TLDR What is interpolation My experience I have been playing Call of Duty Modern Warfare for the past weeks. Every time I would finish playing a game I would have mixed feelings. Some times satisfied, angry, and annoyed, this all depends on what happens. I get annoyed when I get killed by a camper or I get satisfied when I get a good kill ratio. I get angry when I’m the only one making the team great. When I played the campaign I put my difficult level to veteran which is the hardest, there is a variety of difficulty. The campaign is one of the best, everything that would happen had an explanation. The story was engaging, it was well written it made me very curious, and I wanted to keep playing. All the characters were very well in-depth. The Details put in everything was very good, I'm talking the name tags and the weapons. Let's start with the general premise of Modern Warfare's campaign. Loosely based on the Gulf War, Modern Warfare sees you primarily playing as CIA officer Alex and SAS Sergeant Kyle Garrick (accompanied by familiar face Captain Price) who are working to recover stolen chemical gas that has been hijacked by a terrorist organization in Urzikstan. While Alex is embedded with rebels in the fictionalized country - battling against the Russian forces who have occupied it - Garrick begins by dealing with the conflict's impact on London, in the form of a terrorist attack, before branching further afield. like I said the store is very well written. I rate this game 5 stars. the attention to detail and the very good planned story.
Me and my classmates have recently moved to a new software called Adobe Illustrator. This software used vector graphics instead of bit maps. When you zoom in into an image made by vector graphics, it scales it to the size of the display. Animators and graphic designers can you this software to make images for anything. Animators use this software to create a lot of the smooth animations and creative art you see in animated content online is done using vector images.
Graphic designers also use this software, most use it commercially. Graphic designer are contracted to make logos sign and other kinds of art. I could also use the software when and if I’m contracted to make some art for a company or an individual. I’m good to all bit-map and vector graphic all share pros and cons. Vector graphics are useful for storing images highly dependent on lines and polygons. Vector files can also be easily scaled and manipulated with simple text. On the downside vector graphics cannot store complex images like photographs. Bit-mapas can be easily created with preexistentes pixels. Pixels can also be altered individually according to the user. Like vectors they also have cons for instance the size of the file may be larger than of a vector file. Bit-maps will never be easy to scale and that can really change the look or the way of the image. Personally I would rather you the easiest for any kind of work I have to do. Summary What are vector graphics who uses vector graphics what would I choose My Photoshop skills make me feel protected, I really like Photoshop and I also think about buying the software, but I still don't know too well how to use the software. I was very excited to use blend colors to colorize black and white images. These blending modes help me put color into an image and make the color natural. when I heard about the project I got excited because I could use some of my families photos that are in black and white and give it color to make it look real. I chose the farmer picture to add to my portfolio. I tried to make the farmer as modern and realistic as I could. To be honest I think I did a really good job, considering it didn't take as much time I did with my other image. I'm very confident, seeing my work very well, so I'm really safer and now I think I have good Photoshop handling. I think now that I have a good fundamental understanding of Photoshop and hopefully, my skills with photoshop the software will develop as I continue this very pleasuring class.
