Remix Slide

something that stands out to me in this slide is the picture of me. that stands out to me because baseball is me ive played that sport since i was 4 years old. in this slide i put all the sports on the bottom so they can go together instead of it being all over the place. 

the changes i made to this slide was to balance things and make the font neat but not that notable . i made that change because  it took away from the pictures. i also change the title last time i had ''me magazine''. i change the title because first it was not a magazine and it was a to long of a title for one slide. i put the pictures to the eg of the slide because it had to match the whole slide so it could bleed off.

something  that help me change the slide is my classmate feed back on it. to change my slide i watch a video on how to make things bleed and put pitctures in the same catorgy. i look up good slides on how they desigh the slide or what font most of them used to make it how they did. i did the back round bring blue so the pics can pop. i made sure the pics had no back on them so they can look really nice and neat.

Brielle's Remix Slide

Posted by Brielle Thompson in Technology - Freshman · Hull · d1 Band on

I learned that my slide wasn’t really a thought out design. It was just a few pictures slapped on a white background and there wasn’t actual design techniques on my slide. I made my pictures altogether and a quote in the middle so it could pop out. I chose colors with darker backgrounds because I didn’t want any pictures to stand out more than the other.


The research made me realize that everything had to be nice and clean because it is very noticable if not. Also, I had to change the font because it was a font  middle schoolers used not real designers. I know that my slide was too plain before so I had to fix it to make the audience have interest in my new slide.


The first time I did my slide it wasn't really organized it was pictures all over the place and I thought i was doing something by slanting the pictures to make them all fit but that wasn't it at all. I tried to make my picture kind of bleed off my name but it looked tacky and sort of covered my name. The websites that i read from helped me improve my slide tremendously. I used Presentation Zen, Elements of Design Defines, and Slide Design LInk.

Me

This is supposed to represent the definition of me and who I am. The ocean blue background is not just my favorite color but also is a symbol of creativity and intelligence.  I love arts and sketching and video games cause it is one of the things I do enjoy besides drawing. The word that I say that defines me is creative. I learned from this that I don't have much to say about myself.
 
The changes I have made is that I'm describing just about my creative personality.I did run into a couple errors with part of this, at first I was going to put in a zoo picture to talk about my love for animals but that was just something i liked. I made this slide better through finding parts about me that have more meaning. I enjoyed making this presentation. While creating this I discovered a little more about myself.

Nicco: Remixed

Remixed Nicco
​So, originally, I thought the first slide was awesome. It took some constructive criticism for me to figure out how I could make it better. Everyone thought my slide was overly disorganized, making for a hard-to-understand slide playing with the viewer's attention. I fixed that.

First, I tried organizing the slide by straightening everything out. There was still something missing at that point, however, but I remembered Ms. Hull said it'd be a good idea to make opposite-colored rectangles. I thought it was a good idea, as it would make the text easier to see and decrease the insanity (that I still want to keep alive) and put them behind the text. It looked much better, but I decided to make them slightly transparent, to hind the background behind it.

I mainly used ideas from zachholman.com, as the slides presented in the blog were very eye-catching, in my opinion. I made everything big and bold, but for the remixed version you see above, I used more ideas from presentationzen.com, to deal with the "clutter", inspiring me to use the rule of thirds (in some part, anyway) and to increase contrast to make things easier to see. I think I've learned a lot about making presentations, and I think it was fun making this.

After presenting my slide to the class or rather table, I received many critics to improve my original slide. I Learned to straighten out my images and use the negative spacing in my slide accordingly while not overcrowding the slide. I did learn that my text's font was quite boring and dull so I changed it to be more eye catching but yet not take all the attention from the center of the slide. I also learned to incorporate more of the slide designs into my slide. 
I made changes to my slide again because it was kind of dull and not eye catching. Now to fix this I had to start using some colors that would match the background but also match the other images. The rule of the thirds also helped my slide look more organized because the bitmoji resemble my social life so it took up 2/3 of the slide. I also made the text match the basketball so the upper half would be one color and the bottom half another color.
The research I did made my slide better because using a bleeding image instead of the entire image made it fit in. I did not need the entire image to be on the slide, it gets rid of unnecessary spaces it takes. It also taught me about texture and coloring. The rule of the thirds made my slide look more organized. I used bitmojis as one of my sources and presentation zen.

From the critique of my slide, I learned that I probably shouldn't bleed pictures off of the page, and should definitely take out most of my text. My first biggest change was to take out most of my text. Before, the text overwhelmed my slide and made the whole thing unbalanced.
The research that I did explained that a little is a lot. I tried to implement this into my slide everywhere possible. I also tried to reduce the amount of color I used in this slide to make things pop more. One source that I used that really helped me rebuild my slide was a website called garrreynolds.com. This website has many helpful tips for building an attractive slide.
In conclusion, I fixed the issues with my slide and hopefully made my slide look lots better.A good looking slide can be very helpful in the real world. It can be the difference from you getting a job or not or passing that final project.

The Story Behind James Kry

The Story Behind James Kry

What I learn from when I presented my first slide is that I had to change the color of the font to be able for it to see. Also, I was told to do pictures around my title and nice color font that’ll match my background.

I made my changes how the way it looks because I wanted my pictures to be equally balanced around my title. There was some difficulties because their were some pictures that were really stretched out so I had to change the picture.

I had choose a different research site because the one I chose before didn’t work out right. I choose a different slide option which was putting pictures around the title. The research I did was about someone buisness job interview. They put pictures around some of their titles, but theirs were somewhat transparent. Some sources were google images and presentation zen.

All about me slide (1)
In my critique, I learned that I need to make my slide more cohesive. I also learned that my slide would be a lot better if the colors were more focused. I changed my slide to a color cohesive color palette of black and blue. I kept my name exciting but made it more simple as I only used two colors. I kept my leg symbol as it fit with my color scheme, but took out the flower as it didn’t go with the overall vibe of the slide. The new flower I added was all black and a very simple drawing, with kept it matching with the other designs. I made sure all my drawings were transparent so that they didn’t have a background that would take the focus off of the important parts of the slide.
A problem I had with my other slide was the font. The fonts didn’t go together and didn’t make sense with the theme. This time I kept the font very simple and clean. I changed the quote I used because I thought that this one - that comes from Frida Kahlo - would work better and also look better on the slide. I used shadowing with my title, to keep it interesting and create a 3D effect to make the slide look less flat.
My research told me that less is more. I tried to convey that by keeping my slide within only 2 colors and just having a white background. My research also told me to use a color palette. I choose black and blue because they are a classic pair, I made the background white to help the colors pop. The sources were presentation zen and entrepreneur.com. They both said to keep the focus on the important parts of the slide, which I tried to do.

Jonathan Rodebaugh- My Redo Slide

Posted by Jonathan Rodebaugh in Technology - Freshman · Hull · d1 Band on


I learned many things from my critiques from my classmates. One of the things they told me was my pictures were very uneven with each other, they were even to long or too wide. Another thing was they told me to find common colors in each picture for a good background color. I learned a lot from my criques, I needed to improve a lot which is good. The criques really help me learn to make a great slide.

I made many changes on my slide. One of them was size of the pictures, none of the pictures were the same size, they were all not even. I really needed to fix it, so I evened it all out. Then I changed the text and background colors. The colors are far more calming to look at. I changed the colors because I thought that it was far too exciting, and the colors did not match, or work with the pictures.

With the research I had it made me really understand how to make a capturing and quality slide. I learned a lot on how to make my slide really look professional. I used a source called Presentation Zen, and Google Images, that were able to be used, and Bitmoji. Presentation Zen taught me a lot on slide making. I think I became a better project maker.


All About Me (2)

Hillary Hernandez Slide

Posted by Hillary Hernandez in Technology - Freshman · Hull · d1 Band on

From the critique of my slide I learned that I should include brighter and  clearer pictures. As well as that they should all be the same size and that they should be aligned with each other.  That I should use up the most space as possible and alligin both flags with the letters.
 I made the changes I did to my slide because wanted to include brighter pictures and less pictures. So I wouldn't overcrowd it as much and I made those pictures bigger. Than I fixed my quote because the one before was a picture and it was blurry so for this one I decided to type it and make it bigger. 
During my research I learned that you have to put something in the middle and have that pop and than I put two things along side of that to balance it out. Than I put something in the middle so it would balance the top. I aligned all of them and made sure there was no random spaces
