Media Fluency
At first it was very difficult to make a decision on what I wanted to put on my slide. The assignment was to incorporate what you wrote on your “Me Magazine” and put it into your slide. I thought it was going to be easy. I thought to myself how hard can it be? I ended up making three slides all crowded, and very disorganized. After seeing some of my fellow classmates slides I decided to look at the sites. On one of them it talked about color and texture. It was a hard task to make the colors have intensity but make it look good at the same time. Many times I put myself in the perspective of the people who will be looking at my slide. With the first couple of slides most of my colors were either too bright or dark and in some cases you could not see the words. I decided to go with a light soothing background. It pops out but it doesn't hurt the eye when you first see it. The background made me feel calm and makes it easy to read the words on it. It was also difficult to write something in your slide that sums up what you talked about in your “Me Magazine”. The slide could not be crowded so I took many things that weren't needed out the slide. I decide to put one picture so they can focus on it more. If there were more pictures they wouldn't know what to focus on. I also decided to make the words big so they could focus on them to and make it easy and simple to read. I didn't want to make the people looking at it use up to much of their time, I want it to be quick and nice. The reason I decided to put the picture tilted was so the design of the slide could blend in and make it have space so you could see the depth of the picture. To conclude the key to having a good slide is to incorporate having space, color, balance and size.
