2016 Aspirations

Since it is a new year 2016 I would like to set some goals. My first goal is to go the Kalapaki or Kealia and catch the perfect wave where I could get in the barrel and out of it and then it has a long ride after.My second goal is to get me a hover board. My third goal is to get good grades and not have any C,D,&F what I haven't been getting. Also I would like to keep my room clean. My final goal would be better at football and bodyboarding.

My main goal is to get good grades. If I get good grades then I could get into a good collage. If I get into a good collage I could get a good job. Then when I get a good job I could have a successful life. And doing what I love for like 30-40 year I can retire. That to me is like a good life right there.

 The steps I will do is come to school every day. Then I will listen to the teacher. If you don't listen you don't know what hapening. When we get work Ill try my hardest on it. If I don't know how Ill ask how to do it. When it comes to the next day Ill try to repeat those steps again.

Scratch Game Desisgn

In Mr.Sanderl class lately we been learning about scratch.User experience influenced me by helping me get better at my game. When I first heard about code and scratch I had no idea what it was. It also showed me how to make the time, score, and how to move a sprite.

With these two games the plat former and the chase they have similarities and differences. One thing that is different is the sprite I chose, the background, and simple things that you can tell. Something that you can't tell was how complicated they were to make from each other. Things that were the same about the game was using the same blocks to move my sprite. Another thing that was similar was that I had problems with them and I still do.

Out of these two games I would have to say the chase game was more easy. The platform was more hard because I had more problems than the chase game.The most difficult bug fixes is I had for the chase game was when my score stopped working. When I went back to fix it I couldn't find it so my chase game still has bugs in it. For the plat former game I had a lot more bugs then the chase. My sprite would stop moving and when it land on a plat form it would go right through. I wasn't the only one and I got so worried but I wasn't the only one. I still can't find what is wrong with these two games.

Invention Commercial

For this project we had certain goals that we had to meet. We had 3 main goals that we needed to meet. First goal that we had is, is it entertaining. Second does the video show how your product works. The last goal was does it work and that we need it and can't live with out it. Meeting these expectations for our team was kind of tough.   

The best team moment that we had together was when we were filming. When we were filming it was actually starting to get fun because we were talking and just hanging out.  Another moment we had was when we were editing because we were playing around with the computer like with the transitions and things like that. Another moment we had was when we were doing the song part because we forgot or we stumbled and we kept ruining it.

When we were doing this project we all did different things. I was mostly being the main character. Jaesha did filming and editing. Mike did filming and editing with Jaesha. I didn't film because I was the main character.

Composition Scavenger Hunt

Recently we had a project about composition techiques. The best composition techique to me that I think is contrast and content. To me I like it because it has something that stands out. An example would be having the backround all brown then having a bright bird that stands out. It would be your first thing your eyes would see because it stands out. 

To me the composition techique that I find that is the hardest would be unusal angle. I find that one hard because you wouldn't be standing up. You would be in a weird spot. I could use unusal angle more by using it in videos. An example would be like squatting and having the camera facing up but not that much as low angle. If you are in a weird position it would get the character in that weird position too.  

On my team there was Mike who was are team leader. Mike also did voice over along with Jaesha. Jaesha also did some voice over and filming with Mike. What I did was being an actor along with Mike. I also did filming with the rest of my crew.

Cracking the Code

I think that coding is a thing that most people should learn. In class we are learning about coding and right now it's fun. Coding is instructions in programming a computer or a device. coding can be complex some times. After when you do it awhile you get it.

When we first started coding we had a website about coding. When I tried coding for my first time it was hard to under stand. I didn't get it. I didn't even knew what it was. In class Mr. Sanderl showed us coding and what it is.

If I could make my own game I would call it maze shooter. It would be where your character would be in the maze and it has all traps. The way you would get away from getting traped you would have to jump in time or do a move to get out. When you get traped the game would go slower so you can see what to do. It would be kind of a challenging game for strategy and memorization.

My Humorous Monologue

KaneakuaZ_Comedy from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

From this project a few things I learned; One thing was how to work Imovie better. The second thing was how to tell a joke better. Another thing that I learned was about sarcasm like when there being sarcastic and when they aren't. The fourth thing was how to import.

A pad is when the visuals cover the audio in the empt space so you don't see a blank space. Padding in a movie is important because it goes over your monologue so we don't see you just speaking. You use your visuals to go over your audio so you have something to look at.

The parts I was weak at was getting the visuals. It was hard because some parts I had to use my other camera for it because a part was in the ocean. Parts I was strong was putting in effects. The parts I could improve was better footage, having parts stable, lighting should of been better, and no windy noise.

Comedy Writing

Sense of humor is an important character trait because to have a good joke you need to have a sense of humor. Sesne of humor is to perceieve humor of a good joke. It is also important because having sense of humor is also finding ways of jokes that people will like. You don't want to have a good joke that you would like and then you have no one laughing but you only get it so you want to have a sesne of humor so not only you get but other people get.

My comedic monologue is about three people that are hiding from the cops. There is a Filipino a Hawaiian and Portugese that is me. At the end The cops look for the portugese and he is at a potato field and they say is anyone there and instead of being quiet he says POTATO. It's funny because instead of being quiet he / I speak and portugese can't stop talking.
