What I have learned to make

 

More Dreamweaver

Creating a web page is hard. I learned a little off line http://designer-info.com/Web/dreamweaver_tutorial.htm It was easier after knowing a little about the program for me to get started on my web page. I decided to do my page on Jonathan Ive. He is the designer for the iMac, aluminum and titanium PowerBook G4, MacBook, unibody MacBook Pro, iPod, iPhone, and iPad. Ive has been named the most intelligent designer of our time. His work inspires me. I have the web page put together and I am not fixing all the little things like centering all the pictures the correct way (in CSS). 

Dreamweaver

Difficult is an understatement. I finally finished chapter 3 today of the dreamwever and it was extremely hard. I did finish though. I am proud of that.

Oh Flash

I have been working on a tutorial in my book using flash. I have to say it is extremely difficult. I push through it though.

AHHH

It took me way to long for me to understand the difference between shape tweens and classic tweens. I literally almost took out my MAC because I was sooo angry. After help from my teammates I got it down!

Design

Well I learned how to move objects and use masks this week. It was difficult but after working hard at it I have mastered the mask!

Podcast and Wiki

Millions of people use Podcasts and Wiki every day. They were created to make life easier. You can use podcasts and wiki for multiple reasons. Here are some examples of both.


http://wiki.answers.com/
A free website that allows people to answer questions you may have.


http://www.openculture.com/freeaudiobooks
A free website that allows you to view and post podcasts



Both of these sites have a lot of information that you may never have been able to retrieve without a podcast or wiki.

Day number 2

Today we were set lose on the campus with a few cameras. After a few random pictures with "Peaches" and some running around in grass we finally got a few wonderful pictures worth bringing to our teacher for inspection.

Why I am in Graphic Design.

I decided to go into graphic design when I realized Nuclear medicine (my previous career choice) was not the right path for me. After speaking with my concealer, and reading up on graphic design I realized it fit my artistic personality, but also had a business side to it. Realizing graphic design was what I should be doing with my life I eagerly changed my major and started down the path that I am now on. I have enjoyed what I learned so far and cannot wait to see what my future holds.
