Remix: One Google Slide

1 slide tech (2)
When I made my first slide, there were a lot of mistakes. I realized myself that the picture I had was low quality and that it needed to be changed. My slide wasn't eye catching nor was it clean. I was told to make my slide look like an actual sticker book instead of just a little bit. I learned that when everything is on the same level it confuses the audience and bleeding is okay. 

When I was changing my slide I removed the picture, since it was low quality. I decided to add more stickers so it could actually look like a sticker book. I also didn't make them on the same level or really far apart. I made them go around my name. I was told to not put my name on it. I thought that I should make my slide look like a cover of a book about me. I decided to keep my name but change the font, size, and color so it can catch the audiences attention ( I even tested it out with a few people ). 

The research that I did helped me a lot. It made me realize that plain and simple isn't the answer at all. I should always try to make something catch the audiences attention. When I did more research they talked about the font for letters. They said do something big, which is what I did. I did bleeding for my first slide but decided not to. Bleeding can make my slide look better though. It just didn't go with any of the pictures that I had. The first time I made my slide I tried to have a balance space but it didn't look good with all of the empty space. The research I did, did teach me to have a visual theme. Having a visual theme helped me get an idea of what I want to do. The sources that I used were all very useful websites. For example there was Presentation Zen, Slide Design Link, and Elements of Design Defines.

My new slide

I learned that my old background was really wild and distracting. It didn't really match what my picture was. I also learned that I should put my quote on the left because that's the way people read. So I changed the picture and I fixed my quote.

My research taught me about color contrast and composition. It also taught me the section of the frame you should put your main focus on. That's why my quote is not directly to the left.
I used google images(but I made sure I wasn't copyrighting.) I used the sites I was given and some other sites I found to learn things like contrast and composition.

In 2019, the SLAmbassadors will be participating in two European exchange programs. In April of 2019, twelve students will travel to Frankfurt, Germany for our third annual exchange with Gymnasium Riedberg High School. And in October of 2019, ten students will travel to Torun, Poland for a weeklong exchange with students at Nicholas Copernicus High School. 

 

The program is a part of Philadelphia’s Sister Cities initiative, and cost of activities abroad are mostly covered by the hosting schools. As a result, the cost of the flight is basically the cost of the trip – but many students cannot afford the ticket.

 

Can you sponsor a student for this year’s exchanges? No donation is too small - any amount would help their dreams of international travel come true!

I learned that the shape, color, value, and form is important if you're trying to design a good slide. The color is important because it contrasts the font color with the background color. The shape of the picture includes space. You don't want your pictures to be too big to fill up all the spaces or form a cluster. The value and form is the height or width of the pictures. It's also the different tone of color, darkness and light of your pictures. 

I made these changes because I realized that the background should be a little lighter so the black would be more eye catching. I changed the ukulele to a different color because I realized that most of my pictures are black and white, it wouldn't be balanced if I used a different color of picture. I switched up the pictures so the all black pictures wouldn't be all together on one spot. 

The research that I did helped to create a better slide because it gave me different examples. It showed me how the fonts size and different shade of color for your background is important. Some of the sources that I used to create this slide was to figure out the vocabularies that were part of the websites. I also used multiple examples from the websites to figure out how to make a good slide. The websites were, Presentation Zen, Slide Design Link, and Elements of Design Defines. In conclusion, it showed me the differences of size fonts, background color and more.

Hello my fellow classmates. My name is Christopher Jacobs and today I am  going to show you guys my project that defines me and shows some things you may or may not already know about me. The picture I  have shows many things about me that represents my overall life and how I think. For example the Sonic in the background shows my overall love for the series and love for videogames in general which is supported by the Overwatch logo and the Playstation logo. This picture defines me in a number of other ways as well such as the Marvel logo is a big part of my life as I adore the comics and the movies not as much. What influenced me to use the pictures I did was just some real hard thinking about what truly defines me but is still simple enough to be a picture that’s easily understandable. This picture overall describes a big chunk of my life that I feel comfortable in sharing without it all getting too deep. What I learned is things on how I should design my slide like inputting big letters with colors that pop out and to make the circle of attention and many other things. This picture is not my final one but I will discuss why I changed it, I changed it because I simply feel as if it was too much and I could do better and considering this should be a billboard, I feel as if it's something you wouldn't be able to skim it and see everything in the picture, especially on a highway.


A little bit about myself

Here is my slide. As you can see there is text for all of you to read, and its a little bit about myself one of my hobby's is that i like being creative and  like building these small model kits right here. one of my favorite foods is sushi, and I also love baseball. I put in a blue background because I love the color blue and what it represents it symbolizes faith trust and wisdom and loyalty. What I could do better is that i could find more ways to represent the definition of me because I feel that there is more of my likings and favorites than my own emotion.

Hello Class


Welcome to my All about me Slide


        My goal here was to make this a mixture of my personal taste and commonly used design techniques.

    The first thing I thought of when I was begining my slide was that I wanted to make my backround the complex aspect of my slide


The next thing I thought was really interesting was the “the thirds rule”


For people who aren’t familiar with this term. The thirds rule


and used that rule when I was choosing the background.


I used the text to be the simple aspect and the background to be my colorful aspect


And yeah


Mother

Mother

(Walks out of a corner store, shocked and sad) This can’t be happening! (starts to cry)He’s my precious child, he’s my love and joy, He’s my Noah. He can’t die, not like this. Please God he’s only 12, please don’t take him. He has so much to live for. Please Noah, we still need to go to Japan, remember? You said you wanted to go. Please Noah, if you come back to me I’ll buy you anything you want and take you wherever you want to go. Please Noah, I was Just in the corner store buying your favorite snacks for you. Please just come back, I’ll do anything to have you back. (go down to her knees)Please Noah, Please, Please(says this a little bit quieter), Please(says it even quieter), Please(murmurs)… (everything goes quiet).


(wiping her tears)He’s not coming back. My baby boy Noah has died from a stupid heart diseases that was suppose to be cured by now.You know what? I am going to text the doctor that was suppose to save my boy. (stands up and pulls out her phone) you f***ing liar! You told me that his heart would’ve been cured by now, then why has he died. This is all your fault. And send. (Phone dings)Oh it’s him. (shock)


(reading the text message)WHAT! He would’ve been cured by now, but Noah didn’t take his medication?! Why didn’t he take his medication? Does he hate me? Please Noah tell me what have I done. Please, why did you stop taking your medication? You were so close to having a normal life again. Why did you give up on life? (everything goes quiet again). You know what, Noah deserves to die. That’s what you get for not taking your medication.  And all you are a little punk. (angrily)Even before you got your heart disease all you were was a needy little brat that didn’t appreciate anything.  (throws the snacks on the ground)For example you always just stand there and ask questions or distract me when I’m working and so I don’t get my work done. And my boss almost fired me because I keep handing in important work in late. Also when I bring food to the table all you would do is complain because you don’t want to eat it or you don’t like it. Also that time at Disneyland you yelled at me for not buying you an ice cream cone. And the same thing happened at the beach. I don’t even know why I spent money on your ungrateful little punk ass. (yells)I wish I never had you. (everything go quiet once again) (shock)


Oh God, what I have I done. How could I say those things. How could I call myself a mother after all those terrible things that I said. (goes down to her knees again and picks up the snacks on the ground) (starts to cry) I am sorry. I hope you could find forgiveness in you heart to forgive this terrible mother. Noah I am sorry.
