Color Wheel

Overview:

So for this project I created a color wheel that showed all primary, secondary, and tertiary colors. The primary colors are big circles in the wheel the colors are blue, yellow, and red. The secondary colors are the squares on the wheel and those colors are orange, green, and violet. Last but not least there are the tertiary colors which are the smaller triangles on wheel and there are 6 tertiary colors and they are yellow-orange, red-orange, red-violet, blue-violet, blue-green, and yellow-green. How to get tertiary colors is you have to mix a primary color and secondary color together.

What I learned:

Something that I learned while doing this project is you have to have a lot of patience because if you don't you will get really frustrated and give up on trying. I also learned it's a learning process and you will mess up a lot and have to use the command z button a lot but that's ok because your still learning. 

Another thing I learned was that it takes time and many times I would press the wrong button and mess something up but I had to keep trying. Lastly I had to make sure I was using the tool to do certain things like the text if you were still on the text tool and you didn't press the cursor tool the you you just draw another text box instead of moving the first one to where you want it.

What I did:

What I did was try my best in making a color wheel that was aesthetically pleasing and correct. I think that I did a pretty good job on this project considering that it was my first time using adobe illustrator. But something I would do differently next time would be to figure how to tilt the text so that it was sort of the same angle as the color it was describing. Lastly I would also try and get the colors closer to what their name is because I didn't really know how to customize them.

Chase Scene

When I was creating the ideas for this video I sort of had trouble because I could create one good story and the others weren't as good. But we did end up going with one of my ideas for the video and I think it turned out pretty good. Some other ideas that other people in my group had was stealing something for example a lunchbox or something easy to steal. Our location was in the mostly the hallways of the school which was good because you want small walkways for shooting a chase scene. Everyone did agree for the location which made the video shooting process a lot easier.

The filming process was a little different for me because my group was not very focused the whole time which made it a little difficult for us to get all the shots done and multiple runs of the shot and still get done on time. Some of our disagreements were settled by trying to look at the problem the way the other person sees it so that we could understand where the other person was coming from and hopefully that would solve the problem. My role in the film was actor so it was Conner and I  acting in the video. Something I would do differently is try getting more runs of each shot because we didn't do that and it was sort of difficult to edit it when one of the takes was bad. Some challenges was faced was trying to make sure we got all of the 6 shot systems equally in the video because it is a little difficult to make sure you have all of them in a chase scene. My skills in premier have gotten a lot better since I started using it because I had never used it before so it was definitely challenging the first time but I have gotten a lot better. Some things I want to learn going forward are how do I make everything flow together smoothly so that it all goes together nicely. I can continue to grow by staying in e-comm so my skills can continue to get better as I get older.

Working with my team was a little bit difficult because I didn't really know them and we all didn't really share the same thoughts we didn't work very well together. Our aspect of making the the film entertaining was all the same but the aspect of getting it done nicely and orderly were not because they liked to goof around a lot. Something I will do differently is making sure I don't take over the whole thing because I tend to do that in teamwork situations.

AB sequence

When we made this video we had to be very careful to make sure that we didn't break the 180 degree rule which is very important to not break. We also wanted to make sure we had all the 6 shots in our video to make it very diverse. Our brains thought alike because we both came up with the idea to do the video on someone being lost on their way to class. We both decided we wanted to do a lot of shots to make the video pretty interesting and something you want to keep watching ad not get bored. My experience with editing this video was a little rough because my video time line somehow got deleted and I had to restart to the whole video. But I took this negative this and turned it into a positive thing because I could really get a second chance on some of the shots if I didn't like how I edited them.

Our video had a lot of diversity because we had a lot of close ups and extreme wides, also we even went outside at one point in the video. We went all over the school for example the elevator, the lunch  room, and the front office. My partner and I worked very well together because were pretty good friends to start off do working together was a breeze. Something that I would do different is the music I didn't really liked what I picked but I was sort of in a time crunch to pick something.
