Keynote Slide

As you see here, I created a slide. To create my slide, I used the concept of bleeding to the picture of the piano keys, so the viewer is left with some wonder and has to think about what the rest of the picture is.  I made the type big so people would be able to read it easily, without taking their attention from me speaking. I made the slide mainly visual by making the focus the photos that I added. I created the slide so you would only have to glance at it. I used the rule of thirds to somewhat separate my photos into three columns, and added a small amount of text to narrate what I was talking about. I used three photos of things that represent me. I tried to make it as brief as possible, considering how many things I like.

The reasons I choose this slide because its mine! The font I have my name in is Jazz LET. I think this is cool because it is not a normal font. The background and my name represents my two favorite colors. All the different words scattered around my slide describe me. Although I think this looks off, we're here to learn from what me make of things.

After all the criticism from my peers. I decided to change my whole slide. For my background I used a different layout provided by keynote called Watercolor. Although my original slide was bright blue I thought it would be better to tone the colors done. I made my name the focal point of my slide by picking a navy blue to contrast over the soft blue. I believe this slide has come a long way, compared to my original one.

MEDIA FLUENCY Presentation

Posted by Jasmin Gilliam in Technology- Freshmen - Hull on Monday, December 3, 2012 at 9:30 am

​The decisions I made on this slide were based on the things that we talked about in the last class. When Mr. Lehmann Came in and showed us that less is more i took it to heart and i used as little as possible to describe me. Three was a good number for me because it gives me the options to say what is constant in my life (love) what I love to do (art) and what i hope to do forever (travel). and those three things can be interpreted differently through different people, which is what I wanted so that people could have their input in my slide. The three second rule for the three photos. I made the text big enough to read from anywhere but small enough not to distract from my presentation and speech. The repetition was in the three photos and three words.

The first thing my slide needed was a title. Now, this is a slide about my self, so I made the title my name, in the fairly striking Synchro LET font. Next, I decided on a color theme. The light blue, dark blue, and red were all colors had contrast with the white background and each other, so I chose that as the color scheme. Then, I placed a few simple descriptions, with periods on both sides for maximum symmetry, and to funnel the viewers vision into the slope of the words. I used the Gill Sans font, bolded, because it was aesthetically pleasing. Lastly, to add a bit of an “image” to the slide, I added large question marks, which also served to symbolize the “Who am I” aspect of the project.

​ The reason I made the first slide was I wanted to give the audience a sense of what I like to do. I wanted them to know what meant a lot to me and the thing that I like the most. The thing that influenced me was the  Zen presentation. The presentation really helped me to fully understand how to create the first slide. I put all of the pictures in the position they are in because I wanted them in that place. I made my name in that font size because I wanted it to be big. I put the font in that color for a reason. I used different colors in the pictures because I thought using different colors would make the slide better. I also thought that using the different pictures sizes would be best for the slide. Last of all, I made these decisions because I thought they would be best for my slide.   

Since creating my first slide I have learned even more about making slides. I changed my slide completely. The reason being I had way too many photos on my first slide and I did not use presentation Zen correctly. I feel as though having too many photos is not good and does not work. I learned a whole lot from seeing others present their slides. I learned a lot about presentation Zen from others presenting as well because they used presentation Zen well. Furthermore I wanted my slide to be my best work and I believe that my second slide is better than my first slide. Overall I believe that my second slide is much better than my first slide.

I changed the background to the solid blue color because that is what I wanted to do originally but I didn't know how to. It looks better, isn't as distracting, and helps the pictures and text pop. It is also nice and bright and contrasts with the bright orange text.
I moved over and enlarged the picture of the watermelon to have it bleed, which I had forgotten to do the first time. Also, I wanted to draw more attention to it.
I changed the font because it was kind of distracting and complex, and I decided that it would be and look better as something simpler.
I simplified the 3 pictures into 1 idea that incorporates all of them to keep it simple while still including lots of information.

The reason I made my slide look the way it does is because those are the things that describe me in the most simple way. It has my 3 favorite sports (dance counts as a sport!), my favorite things and my name and the word “me”. Since the entire slide is about me I thought I’d incorporate “glance media”. I added size, unity and texture. The size of the word “ME” and my name is like that so people focus more about the fact that’s about me and then who I am comes after that. Unity, the way it all comes together. Like the soccer ball and the point shoes, and the over lapping of things. Then texture comes from the iPhone being slightly 3D and the background having ridged lines. I choose to do all these things to make the slide as simple yet eye catching and easy to understand.

Javier Peraza Q2 Media Fluency

Posted by Javier Peraza in Technology- Freshmen - Hull on Monday, December 3, 2012 at 9:08 am

Before I tell you why I made my slide the way it is, I will tell you that what solely influenced me to make the decisions I made was the rubric instructions and the Presentation Zen website. Now back to business. First I put a picture of myself to make it a visual theme that someone would just have to look at once to know it was about me. Next I only made one point and that is that I am “half seen, half witted.” This also is meant for only a three second glance to know what it is. I purposely made it cryptic and vague so the audience will half to listen to me speaking to understand it. I then made the word “ ME” in big white text on black background to get the attention of the audience. I used contrast by changing colors, font, and size for each text to make the slide more interesting. Another reason I did this is to make the audience think that this is more important than it really is and to give the audience a “WOW” thought. I purposely made my Last Name and Picture bleed because one it went with the “Half Seen, Half Witted” phrase and because it gives it a better artistic look that is appealing to the audience. The rule of thirds in my slide allows the viewer to get their eye caught by the big picture of me and then drawn to the words giving them a better understand of what my slide is about. I used empty space to give it a more mysterious but yet artistic look. I purposely did a black back drop instead of a white because black seems new and appealing while white is the first variant. It makes the viewer feel like it is important. My slide has a visual theme for the mix of pictures, colorful words, and exotic black back drop.

Reflection: 
Looking back at the critique I began to matriculate that the cinched, lucid, and unambiguous slide design is more often aggrandized by the monotonous audience. A monumental confabulation inscribed on a slide show is paroxysm to the benighted, and perhaps even moronic, musters. Not only that, but it distracts them from the real picture which is what transpires from the vocal cords in your throat. The persisting sound during phonation is no amalgamation with culminating knowledge. You want your assemblage to be completely ken to what you are saying; therefore your slide should have as little as possible along with the most meaning. This alone can be vindicating enough, so the elementary way to do this might be challenging. The idea is to have your point unequivocal to give the onlookers the topic in diminutive amount of time. Maybe more importantly, it is salient to have the slide visually appealing. You don't want to lose your 'people' just because you are too intwined into sloth to care. These articulations have a perfect panorama on why I changed my slide to a mild but tenacious introduction to 'ME'.

The devices on my internet connection are all electronics. We have a desktop computer for the entire household to use, my iPhone 4S, my dad’s iPhone 5, my mom’s HTC EVO Lite, our nintendo wii system, my school laptop, my brother’s Toshiba laptop, my toshiba laptop, and my mom’s android tablet. All of these things we use on a regular basis and they won’t be as useful without internet. I learned how a modem is what connects to the internet and how a router is what lets the modem connect to computers in the area. I also learned about how anything posted online will always be there. Even if deleted, it’s still out there permanently. And if I were giving advice I would say to be careful as to what they decide to put out there because people will take your things and repost, reblog, etc. and that could end up being a big mistake.

Levy, Leo. Lucidchart, Home Network

Posted by Leo Levy in Technology- Freshmen - Hull on Wednesday, November 21, 2012 at 11:53 am

My L.A.N. consists of a series of airports and airport expresses, broadcasting wifi to all the individual devices in my home. This is in conjunction to the hardwired ethernet connections, and my entertainment system. Before this class, I had approximately no knowledge at all, whatsoever, even slightly, about home networks or any networks to be honest. Now, I can proudly say that I have a very very minimal understanding of networks, clearly a vast improvement over my old situation. One word of advice, have someone who understands your network explain it to you. Very, very slowly.
