E-comm is a huge environment with many ways to develop and i think that i have many strengths in sports but i would say i have many strengths such as Animating, typing blogs and reflecting on our blogs, taking criticism and improving on it and looking to change things that we do to look better while also making us improve our skill. I think that my animation skills have improved if i can get help with the ideas then i am good at doing the actual animations and i also think my editing skills have improved and developed into a quick and fast process but it is never perfect and i need to focus more. I am good at reflecting on things we do because i want to do better than i did before because improvement is key in becoming your best possible self. I think strengths are not easy to come up with because you can always get better than you are. I would say being able to grow is best strength and i intend on working on making this strength even better. Weaknesses are something that surround e...

I think that this was a good media day for the broadcasters and that they did all the things that make them flow well with great backdrop and they had sponsors and things that helped them give Virginia a good opinion on what they think will happen. One thing I think we should do is we should send questions prior to this session because in the player portion of the interviews they had horrible responses to on the spot questions that I think that people need to know questions so we can give good genuine answers and that with High school students that are barely into seasons will not give the answers we will want and I would love to see a good first media day but we do not want prepared statements so maybe we give them questions prior to walking up to the stand, some people do not talk well on the spot and we need to make this successful so I think that we should do what is best for our program but also gives us good answers.

I think that Sports is a great chance for a class but we do not always have stuff to do so we should have to do things that can benefit us like making hype videos or injury report videos. We need to do things like make coolest catches in NFL history videos so we know how to edit well and get audio well while we learn about sports and make these videos that people love from using lots of internet sources and giving all of them credit Even if we do not have to make each of these online view-able but have lots of things to grade that are give what you get, if you do not want to do a whole lot you wont get a whole lot out but people always do nothing which makes no sense when they should have to do something even if it is simple. There is no excuse for people not having the ability to edit or do things like this for these are learned skills and they can be taught so we need to make sure people know they need to work hard, however we should let people do projects they enjoy because doing s...

Olathe Northwest Sports recently started a new segment called Raven Round up i think this segment should start to be filmed live just so we can get the experience but overall i think it has improved our ability to talk to a camera and i would say it gives a lot of people the chance to anchor Pros We learn a lot about things before we talk about them we can give opinions that are supported we can all get chances to talk while not being rude about it its more social and like a connectable show it compares to many ESPN like shows Cons we need to be careful about opinions we say we are not super trained to do live broadcast we do not take enough initiative to do it we need a big rotation of anchors Ideas We need to do this live we need to cover more out of school sports we need to do everyone with a common weekly theme we need to let people get chance to try producing team people should get to choose a subject each one

Ezekiel Elliot Court Case Ezekiel Elliot is a running back for the Cowboys, he was charged with domestic violation crimes by an Ex-Girlfriend in July 2016 this was filed m girlfriend but no witnesses or proof that it was done to anyone else or they even lived together was ever found so he was never charged until NFL's Roger Goodall looked into this case looking to stop violent crimes in the NFL. He unreasonbly charged Elliot with a 6 game suspension. Why can the NFL do this? this is because the federal law and NFL law are 2 different things. Federal Law is innocent until proven guilty but NFL has turned to a messed up guilty tie proven innocent due to the overpower of Roger Goodall. this decision was made solely by Goodall and only proof found toward Elliot was bruises on this former girlfriend even though she had admitted to being in a former bar fight Elliot will play against the chiefs even though being just suspended and now he is looking to work on another appeal to conti...

Around the horn Pros for  espn social lots of opinions new every week very specific frequent visitor Cons for espn annoying to not frequent visitors constant repetition opinions not facts vague topics Pros for ONW Social talking not the same old show lots of opinions for people Con for ONW we can not say a lot of opinions because it is a school thing we do not have a lot of single things to focus on. we have a lot of shows already that do not always get lots of views

ONW highlights I think that highlights would be a cool thing to do for ONW and have it be a ONW Vote and we just show a bunch of plays that we have and we choose the ONW 10 I think that ESPN video right here is sweet because you get the best moments and for how good ONW is not we need plays that show us as good and show off on our show and I think that this would be a great addition to our show where we put a link on it so every week or month we do 5 top plays that a way its not a lot of pressure but it is still good plays that we could manage to make. There are a lot of people who don't do a whole lot so we need to do little things like this people can actually do things that would be able to do. I think that voting is also a huge thing which would make people want to watch our shows to see if they go t their play chosen.

Raven Roundup Reflection: I think that our first raven round up went well as in we had good content to talk about but we should do it maybe in a more organized way like they do in PTI or just run down stuff quick because we don't want people to get bored. I think that we have a long way to go but I also think we had a very good start and they looked more relaxed and better to watch than Gameday and it needs to be very specific because it felt a little like game day. But if we just write out what we want instead of last second and do not do as much script I think we will improve a whole bunch. PTI Comparison and Critique Something I think that makes this difference is the switching of camera angles to only one person talking which if done well we could copy and it would add some perspective to our show but I think they argue so much that it makes show less appealing but it could add a little bit of flavor to our shows if done in small amounts but I think that if this is...

Sports Cast Review I think that this video was a good representation of what we should do in our class. The positives of this are things that could truly add to our class and would make our shows more hooking to watch. Things such as visuals when we are talking and things like charts or such that show data we say or what we mean. This showed parts of the match that really made me interested in something that maybe was so interesting but if we could apply this to other things then we would have a better show. I think that we should maybe do the social sit down during Game Day because it is hard to not sway or look nervous standing in front of all those lights and I think sitting down is social and relaxed and good for things such as highlights so you say them in a smooth manner. One thing that even this reknown station did not complete was talking with fluency and slower. It always sound weird when you talk fast but pausing and recouping to talk slow and consistent is best. So it is b...

Boom Goes the Dynamite This is well known video for its humor of his one saying " boom goes the dynamite". But I think there is a lot to learn this video. He started off well but he didn't put down enough things to say so when he was recapping them game he did not follow a shot sheet. He just gave us a result which was a problem because it does not keep our attention which I think is a way to reflect on the way our newscast will go because you never can say too much. If you talk to long its easy to conclude and move on but this young reporter was talking and then stopped because he did not have enough to say and in a 2 hour game there is always some thing to say. But not to constantly bash on, he did something that I think really makes or breaks a sports report and that is enthusiastic talk because a saying like " boom goes the dynamite" might be new and kind of weird but it kept us watching and the things he said made you feel the heat of the moment so all ...

Video class had a huge impact on me by teaching many useful things that will help my career in e-comm but also it taught me a lot about life lessons and getting along with other people. These things that i learned are collaboration,communication,leadership,project management and technology. These are very impactful things because each have features that will impact each and every little bit of your life and help you progress as a person,worker and e-comm student.Video is what i am looking going into so i think that each thing we did was huge on helping me later in E-comm and i will look forward to using all of these in Sports next year. I think a huge thing that i learned in communication category is that talking with people before a production is very important and making sure that everyone knows whats going on. I would say this was a huge piece to me because i am very extraverted and enjoy talking so communication is not a problem but i think that it helped me expand on it because t...

     This is my Animation reflection. I used many different things this year such as green screening, special effects, 2d animation and 3D modeling. These are all things i learned and  we took steps of copying what Mr.Netterville did then we repeated and added our own sweet touch to each thing. I think technology was a huge takeaway because i have developed and learned many thing about working with computers and typing faster and just being better at editing pictures and manipulating them to what i like.     The first thing we focused on was 2d animation and it was pretty easy for me and i helped a lot people but i liked all the things we did because they encouraged us to be individuals. I think this helped us l earn about technology because we put a lot of pieces together and learned about parts of technology and what we needed to do to complete our project while using all the things we have to our disposal.      Another takeaway was L...

My video is George of the Jungle and my team composed it altogether using special effects, green screen and 3D animation. This video was using all our skills from animation and since i use a lot of my video skills to edit i think that my video was very well composed. We had to make sure green screen looked good and the shot was well done so that it looks like he is actually in jungle. I added a lot of sound effects which i think added to the video and was part of my video skill but my animation skill came key when i touched up on green screen and made sure that the video flowed together but i think this final was my best project and even though it looks cheesy. However , this is a well done piece of animation and could be made into movie if we added story and touched up effects but in our class i think mine was the best and that my group worked hard to get even the little things and that making it go fast doesn't give much time for people to notice the mistakes.

The movie that i reviewed was a youtube star known as action movie kid and it is just videos of a kid running around but special effects are added in so his toys actually shoot or his toys will blow up or fly away. I would say that all these special effects are well done because obviously they aren't real but they are well done and look like they could be real. I would say this is a well done clips because he is most likely using same equipment we do yet his look real and so this was a good choice to review because he just has more skill so if i can learn to do things like him and practice i could have 70 million views he does and this is why i would love this channel. This channel is just normal daily life things that he uses special effects to completely change and he makes many different things happen in a normal house with a normal kid so he really is just adding effects and not faking all of the setting with the green screen. Red giant is what he is using so he just takes tuto...

This is my Special effects project and we took a video of just a normal street and added in an explosion and a fire burning in the street. This project was helpful for my E-comm career because it will help when i continue in video so i can add little effects to make things look better or add a cool effect. The most important part of this is making sure that it looks real so if you look at the picture to the right you will see the explosion coming out of the building and the trick was to cover up the things that would block vision of the fire. This was so important because if it starts off looking real then you will assume that it is. This bottom picture is the smoke and burning fire and it was put because there has to be an aftermath and this shows the fire burning and making it seem as if the fire was real and now has to burn. When its burning you can evaluate the street and actually get a real explosion look around and see that it could be real.This is probably my favorite project ...

How to make a revolve object in Maya First put yourself on whatever view you want to make it in. After you choose this view select the curves section and get the EP curve tool and that will put points on the graph and you when you click "ENTER" they will all connect together This is what it should look like when you place the points so click "ENTER" it will form together and all you have to do is revolve it all the way around to complete it click the revolve tool after selecting it and it should revolve it all the way around creating a symmetrical object. the completed project will have hole at top that you can cover up with scaling but it should be the curve all the way around Now you have revolved a line all the way around

We watched a video on Walt Disney's Plausible Impossible and this video talked about how even though in cartoons crazy things happen that wouldn't really happen but they might be impossible but we can still fathom them due to concepts that make sense to us. If you look below, you will see mickey getting shuffled into a deck of cards which would obviously be impossible to happen but we know that a deck of cards gets shuffled so making someone getting shuffled in them could be a reasonable concept to a certain extent. Also if cards were hostile, how would they fight? Well if they all of them then they could shuffle you up and make sure that you get shuffled in. This is an example of an impossible thing that we can still believe.        Another one also would be the idea that swallowing soap would cause you to burp bubbles when swallowing a bar of soap would obvious be very harmful but it puts that aside to make him burp the bubbles so you understand that soap ma...

 Production: I would say that we had a good overall project production but we should have started filming before because we had to rush due to time constraints. This project was hard to produce because making a trailer isn't easy due to the fact movie studios make the movie clips then the trailer but we had to just produce a trailer which includes a lot of extras and costumes. A big difficulty we had was our trailer had a lot of extras with shots that were 2/3 of a second long which is hard to time out well. The easiest part was the settings, our trailer had a small amount of settings so we did not have to find very many places to film at but all the shots are so different that lots of costumes were needed.  Planning: The biggest part of planning was getting costumes and people to film with, I think a hard part was getting extras because everyone else was making videos which didn't give us much options for extras but we were told to do edit for edit and shot for shot so ...

Upswing Music Video            Overall         I think that this was a interesting project because music videos are mainly focused on the song but for our first entertainment project we made a music video but it was mainly for the shots and the overall editing. I think my video was well done, with many aspects of it that improved it. I didn't get as much close ups as i wanted but i think they key to making a music video is constantly switch frames and this is was something i learned and will help me in other entertainment videos. Editing is a huge part of making the video to make sure that it has same style or has a good ending or even adding in funny things so the video has an appeal that will make you laugh.     Development         Music videos and other entertainment pieces are very hard if u dont plan because then everything wont turn out how you want it. so making a script and writing our scenes m...

Song:Hammer Time  by MC Hammer  The song I reviewed is called hammer time and i think that it could really help me in my music video because its a old song but the video is still done very well which proves doesn't take a whole lot just need lots of lights and scene changes. He constantly dances and sings in front of the camera which doesn't seem like a big part of the video but it really makes the song enticing and the lights go to the rhythm. I Think that this would be good addition to the video we are making because it shows we don't need a crazy story or some kind of awesome back drop just good lights and that was so long ago now we have better editing. I also like at the beginning of this video he put a video of him winning an award because hammer time is representing himself. Having a theme or something to focus on is really something that adds to a music video and in my music video i can hope we have a good theme. I love this music video because its such a well ...
