Second Slide Reflection Eastwood

Posted by Alyssa Eastwood in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b2 on

What I learned from the critique that my peers gave me is that I should make some of the pictures and the writing more center. So I put two pictures on each side and put the main one in the middle with Alyssa's Life above it and I put the emoji under it. I also added a bold red background so it wouldn't be plain. I made these changes because I wanted my slide to be more eye catching and i wanted it too look like I really did listen to my peers.

My new slide

Posted by Tyreek Speedwell in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
My first slide was pretty good. I worked really hard on it and it expresses my love for basketball. I was truly interested in what my classmates said I needed to improve on. They inspired me to make those improvements. There were a few things I fixed instead of leaving out of my slide like my name, the jordan logo, and the LeBron James quote. Overall I changed a lot to make my new slide more appealing to my auidence.

Reflection for Slide - DeRock

Posted by Antonio DeRock in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b2 on
Me Magazine Slide (1)
​I learned that I need to make my slide simple, and make sure the audience can understand and read the things on my slide. The words on my slide were small and couldn't be read by the audience. There was a distracting blur in the corner of my picture. The big flaw with my presentation was the lack of knowledge. I didn't use any words from the websites that were provided.

When editing my slide, I wanted the words to pop out to the audience, so I highlighted the words in yellow because its a very bright color, that is easy to see. I took a screenshot for the part of my image that didn't consist of having that annoying blur that was in the corner. The picture bleeds a little bit as well. The words on my slide are easier to read now, and my slide stayed simple.


Final Slide Design

1.) From the criticism I had received I had learned a lot more about what my slide should look like and how I was to present it. The first thing that I was told was that the color on the slide where far too bright and did not go well together. I had two colors as my background and I was told had it should only be one which is why I had changed that. Also my slide had multiple pictures on it and was all over the place and I had to stick with a single topic which is what I did. In my old slide I had many pictures that were all different colors which brings me to the last piece of criticism. I was told that it would be much simpler and neater to have one big picture that shows my topic quickly instead of having multiple ideas on the slide.

2.)The first change I had made was the color because before it was bright and slightly difficult to read so I had changed it to something darker so if I put white writing it would stand out more. I had gotten rid of all my pictures because I felt as if they didn't go with my main idea. My old slide did have a title but I saw that it was better to put large words that had meaning to them because it gave to the reader something to think about what kind of person I am.  

Media Fluency Part 2- Lor, Autumn

Pictures that covers the whole slide, makes it less eye catching. When it’s a big picture, it takes away the main focus. On my slide itself, I felt like it was a bad picture to put as a slide shows. So instead of making it a plain picture, I changed to texture of it.

I changed the color of the fonts and I also changed the positioning of the word “photography”. I kind of had made it follow along the line at the top of the building and then moved the words “me magazine” to a different area. The last thing I did was taking out my name.

Edited Slide Reflection

Posted by Waverly O'Neal in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on

After receiving criticism from my classmates I found that the size of the chocolate picture made it hard to make out, to fix this, I made it bigger. Also, the picture of the butterfly turned out pixelated because I had to widen it to fit the slide, so I made it longer to balance out the alterations. The title of my original slide was “ The Wonderful World of Waverly”, but after consulting with my peers I found that the inconsistency in words beginning with “W” caused a subconscious discomfort. In response I changed the title to “Waverly’s Wonderful World” to eliminate the unpleasant vibe. I’m happy with my edited slide and think that the little changes made it all the better. The next time I see a sign I will be able to appreciate all the planning, science, and critical thinking behind the advertisement.

Reflection + Second Slide - Gerber

Posted by Bea Gerber in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b2 on
From my critique, I learned that my font was off. Some people also didn't like the white background or other small things about the literal photo, such as flipping the picture, but we all agreed that there wasn't anything we could do about them (the word NIKON would be backwards etc). I did know that I could change the font. I decided to do a little research. I looked up what font the NIKON logo is, and found out it was basically just Arial but bolded and in italics. The only difference is that the "i" is an oval. I put this font onto my words, and initially it looked very odd. I had to kern my lines and space them out using even spacing. I kept my first letter the biggest to balance out the largest camera, and I made sure the quotation marks were the same size as the rest of the letters. Overall, I didn't have huge changes to make, but I think that they made my piece much easier to look at.

Me magazine slide #2 -Vivian Pham

Posted by Vivian Pham in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on

Something that I learned through the critique from my fellow classmates is that in the previous slides, the color and contrast schemes wasn't really eye catching or uses the technique of glance media very much. Sure, it had the pink color to distract the person who sees the slide or if it were to be on a billboard in the middle of a highway. And along with trying to make the theme more appealing, the color of the text in my old slide was pretty plain and boring and also pretty jumbled up. The text color was all black and some letters were bolded for specific reasons, and that's pretty plain considering the background was white and the text was white. And along with the text being a problem, my initial idea was to put words within words like a letter in a word could also fit in another word with the same letter and I learned from the critique that it made it really confusing. 
I made quite a lot of changes to the new slide, I changed the whole theme of the slide like the colors are different from before. Before it was just white and pink which were pretty subtle and simple tones. I changed it into a brighter color which is yellow and the blue complimented the yellow and the colors don't clash either and I also changed the style change as well. And I took out a picture that didn't really make sense with the colors of the whole slide in general and separated the pictures so that they weren't so close to each other. And as for the text I kept the text all black because I didn't want to overcomplicate the colors so I didn't want the text to be all different colors that wont match the background. I also boxed al of the words and letters with a white banner so that it was easier to see and I boxed my name as well so that the text was all boxed and not just some.

​I learned that I should take away the text because they take away from looking at the pictures. I also realized that I should make my slide more of a collage with the pictures. I learned how to layer pictures on top of others, thanks to Maciej. I also tried not to make any of the pictures symmetrical or line up to each other. 

Slide #2, Tylier Driscoll

Me magazine slide
I learned that I fell into the trap that was set for the me magazine slide. I completely started the me magazine slide over with a black and white slide, my last slide had no pictures in it so I then used pictures that fit the theme well. I was also told to go into deeper things about myself besides school. I also learned to bleed the pictures off a little bit, and that I needed to fit some of the things about me into a concise form. I made my name as big as it was before and I added a book next to it to make it look better. I made these changes to my slide because I needed the slide to be able to be processed quicker than the last. This slide looks much better than the last because the changes made to the slide represents me a little bit more than the last.

Updated Me Magazine Slide, Lucien Hearn

In my updated Me Magazine Slide, I removed two images, and made the Thailand flag and the woman more prominent. In addition to that, I more so centered the text, and made the slide color the (relatively) same color as the woman's background, a salmon color. I made it seem like the two images' foundations are both aligned, but the bird is popping out, making the image seem like it pops. I'm very proud of this product.

Slide #2 - Nicolella

Media Fluency
I received my criticism, and I made my changes I thought made most sense. I created the slide into more of a collage, as that was one of my main comments. I fixed my words and the colors, making them properly fit and stand out more. The pictures became bigger, to use more of the space up and fixed anything else I had to. I learned a lot from doing this activity, I learned how to properly use colors and the shapes of the photos. I also learned the different aspects of design, and how much it actually matters with presenting and business matters.

​Reflection

From doing this slide, I learned a lot of things. I learned that symmetry, spacing, and wording is the key to a good slide. I also learned about the different tools designers use when creating billboards, like the rule of thirds, making the words big, contrasting the words and the background, and a lot more. I made changes to my first slide presentation. I changed the font, cleaned up the spacing, and got rid of the underlines. I changed the font because I wanted it to be interesting to my viewers and so I put it in Acme font. I cleaned up the spacing because it was sloppy. Each line seemed too close to each other and some of the letters touched the other words. Finally, I got rid of the underlines because it made the slide look messy and it touched the letters below it. These were the things I learned about in making this slide and these were the changes I made to my slide.

I learned that the slide is not only about your academic personality but also what defines you, so I removed everything I had and I made a completely new slide with the things that represent who I am and without explaining the slide to people they will know.
I add my favorite game: Clash Of Clans, a graffiti that shows my artistic side, soccer balls that represent my favorite sport, and finally the Illuminati logo.

Media Fluency#2, To

Posted by Cynthia To in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y1 on
     I learned a lot from the critiques of my media slide. I made the changes that I made to my slide because my slide was not viewer friendly because I made the pictures all even and boring and that I changed my words because they didn't standout and the changes will make my slide better. I learned that I should change my words and make it into a collage. I used contrast colors like blue and orange because the colors stand out more. I made all the pictures different sizes. I also added two different fonts for my name and what I like to do because they are different.

Media Fluency Part 2- Seng, Meymey

Posted by Meymey Seng in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b2 on
1. From the critique of my slide, I have learned many things from my peers. One of the things that I learned was that I should have stuck to my collage theme fully, instead of committing to it half way. What this means is that on one side of my slide I had two pictures, while the other side had three. Another thing that I learned was that I should change around the font to make the "MEy" part look less distracting to the eye. The third thing that I learned was that while presenting, I should have known more about the background of why the color scheme mattered. 

2. The changes that I made to this slide was adding another picture on the left end of the slide. This allowed my slide to have an even amount of pictures on both sides. I wanted to stick to my collage theme, although I made the choice of not the adding pictures to the top and bottom spots in the slide. This is because those are small spots and I do not want to cram my slide, instead, I want to make it simple. Another change that I made to this slide was changing the font of "All About MEy" from Lato to Indie Flower. I made the font to look more hand, which will hopefully make the odd capitalization more appealing to the eye. I decided to make these changes to better my slide for everyone to see.

Finalized Slide

Posted by Marcin Czapla in Technology - Freshman - Hull - y2 on
1. What I learned from the critique of my slide was that simplicity is sometimes better then making something more complicated, and since my slide was very simple they enjoyed that aspect of it, so I decided to keep it that way. Something I did learn while presenting though was that I should pick a different color soccer ball, or one that would not blend in with the background since it was hard to see. One more thing that I was told to change was the way my word were placed. I was told to make them outline the soccer ball, so that it would look nicer.

2. The reason why I decided to make the soccer ball have a black outline is again, so that it would not blend into the background. The reason why I decided to make the words that describe me outline the soccer ball was to make it more aesthetically pleasing.

Media Fluency 2, Johnson

Posted by Kiah Johnson in Technology - Freshman - Hull - b2 on
When the critique process was taking place, I had a lot of good comments about my slide and only a few minor adjustments to be made. By being told these corrections, I learned how to make my slide look more believable that a professional did it and how to make kids and adults look at the slide. One of the suggestions was for me to make sure that my mickey mouse wasn't in the way of one of the flags, because the castle is just as important of the idea of Disney as mickey mouse is. The next thing I did was brighten the picture a little bit, to make the slide look more excited and colorful. Once I did that, it made the slide look like it was having fun and it wants to be seen by many people. The last thing I did was that I fixed Mickey Mouse's bow ties. I was told before that the Mickey Mouse heads were a good addition to the slide, so I wanted to make them well noticed. I played around with the shapes and I found a circle and put it onto the bow tie to add just a bit more color to the Mickey Mouse head.
