Music Video Finale

P3T8 Work From Home from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.
  • Cite Musician & 2 minutes of the Song Lyrics use

The storyline is about how three friends used to have fun but since their friend Christina works at Starbucks they have no time to hang out anymore. Also the two friends Hailee and Tierra try to get Christina fired so she can hang out with them more often. The two friends end up getting Christina fired and she realizes how much fun it is to hang out with her friends instead of always working. The storyline relates to the lyrics because in one part of the song it says "your always on the night shift" which means she is always working at night. Last but not least another part it says that "I cant stand these nights alone" which means that we cant stand being alone while their friend is work.

In my opinion my favorite fast montage is when Hailee and I are drinking are Starbucks and singing at the same time while there is quick changing movement. Also I like this fast edit montage because it shows that me and Hailee love Starbucks and can sing at the same time. This is my favorite because I liked the way it was changing in a neat sequence. Last but not least this is my favorite because we were singing my favorite part of the song.

This music video shows my best work because I worked hard. Also it shows my best work because I had fun and I was created. Another reason why this music video shows my best work because I made arrangements and also my team worked as in a team in some ways. I like doing this music video because it was fun and it made me happy. Last but not least this music video showed my hard work because some of the behind the scenes pictures shows how much fun I had working with my team.

Musician: Fifth Harmony

But I can't stand these nights alone

And I don't need no explanation

'Cause baby, you're the boss at home


You don't gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work

But you gotta put in work, work, work, work, work, work, work

You don't gotta go to work, work, work, work, work, work, work

Let my body do the work, work, work, work, work, work, work, work

We can work from home, oh, oh, oh-oh

We can work from home, oh, oh

Animated Life Lessons

P3T2 Friends Clean Garage from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.



My teammates are Gillian and Steve.  Gillian's traits in the script is she is always singing, dancing, very emotional and is always reading books.  Steve's traits are he gets mad really mad easily, he loves science, smart and he is always talking.  These effect the script and the animation by him getting mad because he is always getting distracted when somebody is talking to him.  This effects the scene when Gillian is always singing and dancing also getting distracted easily just like Steve.


In my opinion I think  that my teams level of productivity was a seven because it was difficult but we could have done better.  Also it was hard at days because most of the teammates were not there to help out on a due date.  Another reason is because we all didn't really know each other.  Another reason why this project was difficult because every person didn't do exactly their part.   This project was difficult because we did not really communicate at all.  Last but not least I think that the best moment we all had together is when we accomplished a goal that day.

Character Development


Finished Product!


Im the type of person who is shy around other people but not her friends.  I am the type of person that is not afraid to express herself.  Also I am the one who loves to have fun and just be silly.  I will alway be myself.  Usually I am the person who is a little shy for example I will not volunteer as much as an average person.  Also I am the type to get things done but in a neat way.  Im the neat and clean person that loves everything nicely done and in order.  I am fun and happy when I want to be which is most likely always.  I love to play sports, exercise and eat healthy to keep in shape.  Last but not least every morning I feed the dogs to show that I care and love them.

The character traits that I tend to show is that i'm very flexible.  Also I think that my puppet warp shows that I am very expressive.  In my opinion my GIF project shows that I am super creative.  I do this to show that I like to have fun with my work and not be bland or boring.  Next I do this to show my feelings and how I feel on the inside.  I tend to show that my character is kind of clumsy like me in person.  Last but not least in my opinion I tend to show that my character is me just being myself and that I am a sporty, creative and fun girl.

The step by step process was a little hard at first but with demos and tutorials it got easier.  The first step to GIF was to get the pictures of yourself.  Also the second step was to open them in photoshop and cut yourself out with the magic wand tool.  Third step was to make some weird moves with the puppet warp tool.  Fourth step was to copy the layer and add a background.  Last step was to make it a GIF and size it.

.MOV FILM FESTIVAL

P3T2 Kailes Explores Talent from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.




In my GT class we are doing a sitcom or an animation filming process. My team is doing a sitcom which includes a mean girl, a great friend and a shy talented girl. Our team is planning on filming a sitcom where I am the mean girl and I try to stop the shy talented girl from entering or winning the talent show because of all her great and beautiful talent. There is also a really great friend who plays the part of the helpful encouraging friend. The mean girl then doesn't end up ruining the shy girls talent show instead they become best friends.

My overall message is to make a sitcom about 3 girls who perform at a talent show.  Although one of the girls decides to be selfish and mean.  The message of this story is to not be a selfish person and take risk in life.  Another message is to be yourself and don't let anyone change that or you.  Also the message is to don't let anyone ruin something that is important to you because if you do then obviously it wasn't that important to you.  Last but not least the final message is to defend yourself if anyones is bullying you.

In my opinion I think the biggest team challenge we faced was communicating with each other.  Also trying to plan our filming days was a challenge.  For example if we were all free on the weekends we should have communicated to get more work done.  Our team faced this problem by then talking and communicating with all of us.  Last but not least we know now to talk and socialize with each other.

Tiny Spherical Worlds


The point of composite images is to create from combining several different pictures to go beyond the limitations of a camera. The reason of composite pictures is to go beyond the limitations and do better photos or pictures after being critiqued from the first shot or photo. You can also do more than one because you can what needs improving by judging the first photo. Next is you can also do one more picture instead of sticking with one so you can make an effort to the next one. Last but not least one more picture can be better than just one picture because it shows that you can do extra credited work.

In my opinion I think the difference between spherical and polar panoramas is that polar panoramas look more like a world and spherical panoramas look more like a glass globe. In my opinion I also think they look different because polar is different when in the process of being created than in the making of spherical panoramas. The difference between polar and spherical panoramas is when the finish product is done the polar has a black background and the sphere has a white background. Polar and sphere both use feathered backgrounds but have different colors. Also the polar looks scoped out and the sphere looks like a planet.

The tiny worlds will look convincing because they will have quality work done. In my opinion I think that the worlds will look really convincing because they will be done with hard work. The world we are working on will be convincing because of the portraits and the shadows. It will also be believable because it looks like a mini world. Last but not least they will be convincing because of the creative and quality work.

Hockney Style Joiners

David Hockney's photo montages were different from mine because he spent more time and effort on his than I did. Also Davids photo montages are different from mine because he took more pictures and better quality pictures. David did a different type of photo montage than me because he did creative work. Also because David Hockney uses more high tech equipment than my type of photo montage. My photo montages are different from David Hockney's because I did mine in a less lightened place or area than his. Last but not least David Hockney had a different perspective than me because he is more experienced than me and my photomontages.

Images or Photos can send different messages because of the way the picture is being taken. The picture or photograph can have things that set off or trigger an emotion or feeling. For example if there is puppies playing it might set off or trigger the emotion of happiness or if there is a girl crying it might set off the emotion or feeling of sadness. If the picture is taken a curtain way then a normal perspective than it can set a different feeling than a normal or original photo. Last but not least they can send different messages depending on what is being taken.

The message I want my audience to have is that my work of art is part of a photo montage.  Also that my message from my picture is that I care about my mom and I appreciate her.  I think that the message my photomontage gives them is joy and happiness.  I intend my message to send them of how much I am grateful for my mom and how meaningful she is to me.  Also how I give so much love to her.  Last but not least I intend my audience to see how much I respect her and love her.


David Hockney English painter, draughtsmen, print maker, stage designer and photographer who lives in Bridlington, East Riding of Yorkshire, and Kensington, London. This is a picture of David Hockney on a sofa in the workroom on the top floor of his beachside house.  I got this picture from  www.theguardian.com

2016 Aspirations

In the year 2016 I think I can attain the goals of making new friends, Increasing my learning in math, play with my animals more often, putting negative things in the past and being more confident.  I think I can attain  these goals because in the past years I haven't done these things so now I think I can achieve the goals of this year.  I also think I can achieve these goals because I am Confident and that is one my goals but to be more confident.  These goals may help me because ill change and try something new.  My goals for this year may help other people because they may like my new attitude and how I do things.


I think the number 1 goal I really want to achieve for this year is to make new friends.  I think this is the most important goal to me because I think I can learn other and different cultures of the world. 
Also because I think it is a way to be more social with more people.  This is an important goal because making new friends can be interesting and fun at the same time.  Last but not least I think there could be different type of people with different types of attitudes.

I think the types of steps to accomplish my goals is to at least try to complete one goal at a time.  Another step is to try my best to complete my goals.  I think steps will be easier to do than do all my goals at once.  In my opinion I think my goals can be done with steps because instead of rushing ill do step by step.  Last but not least a step to. ensure my success I will make sure that there is a plan to make sure my goals are accomplished.

Scratch Game Design


In my class we all had to create a scratch games that were call Chase and Platfomer. Some of the requirements were to not make a remix of other games and to have blocks to get to a next level. Also it had to be named correctly so you know it was your game. I created this game for people to play it and not just for me. The users of my game helped me create my game because of the games people play today.

In my opinion I think my game was different and unique from my other class mates games because I used different sprites. I also used a different background then most of the other scratch game makers. My game is also a little different then some other makers like my game has a beetle and some people have just a mouse or fish. I also think that my game is different because it has different foods then most people. Also I think my game is kind of unique because I came up with it.

 I think the most difficult coding was getting the beetle to get to the different types of foods. I think this was hard because the ghoul would go haywire and it go's super fast and touches the beetle at a weird time. This is a hard coding because getting my food to move around was hard and getting my ghoul to move slowly was also hard. Some other difficult problems were getting the background to only have one backdrop and not more than one. These problems were hard for me and it may not be hard for you so if you have a solution please let me know.

Invention Commercial


For this assignment my teams goals are to show an audience on how our product worked and they cant live without it. Also another goal we worked on and tried to achieve was to get a good grade and getting it turned in on time. My team worked hard to meet our goal so we can approve. Some goals I think my team could have worked on was time managing and the way we film. I think that my team reached important goals and worked hard on this project.

I think the best team moments is when we all worked together and I popped up in one of the shots.  I also think that moment was fun because we were all working together.  Some other moments that  i thought that were fun were when the whole team had to say how food is important.  This moment was also the best because food is my favorite thing in the world.  That moment was fun and I wis it could happen again.

In the process of editing my team worked together.  Also my team didn't have any special parts of working.  My team worked with different parts such as fixing up extra parts of the clips and with naming the work.  So my team really didn't have a part because we all worked in different ways.  This team was helpful with the production of work.  We also worked hard on doing our own jobs and I think we can succeed even more next time.

Composition Scavenger Hunt



In my opinion I think the most important rule is Extreme Close Up because extreme close up gives better details when looking at a picture. I also think Extreme close up is the most important because you can see everything that cant be seen in a regular photo. I also think that extreme close up is the most important because it can tell you so much in one shot and many details. Extreme close is when a subject is very close to the camera and seen.

I think the most difficult rule is repetition of shapes because in the world now there aren't many resources to find that look exactly the same. Repetition of shapes is when there are many objects that look the same but are different colors or different sizes. I think this is the most complicated because people in the world today try not to make objects and resources the same now days.  In some places you might find repetition of shapes.  Finding repetition of shapes may be easy at times but at other it is not as easy.

This week my GT class did a project and we had to get in to groups of three.  A girl named Hailee and another Christina we were put together and we all took turns speaking, filming and playing a role in the shot.  My teammates helped and we all worked hard to make things come together.  I think in my own opinion that my team was very productive and helpful.  I also think that my team worked in a appropriate way together.

Cracking the Code

In my opinion I think everybody should learn to code because it can help with many problems in life.  Also when people wonder what kind of things create apps and games they have coding to show them the special things that run through apps, games and networks.  I think coding is important to learn because it shows you the basic steps of what happens to the the icons you see on your phone today after you are done using it.  Coding is really fun in my opinion because there is so many things to see and create.  In coding you can express what you want to design and you want the app to work.

My first experience with computer programming or what I like to call coding was really fun.  It was like I was in the game.  The game that was part of coding was really fun, it was called angry birds but a different version.  In my own opinion I think that other people should try coding cause it shows you a lot of resources behind the scenes of a game or app.  Coding is amazing and I think everybody should try it.

If I could make my own program I would make a game where you would have any character from Disney that swims underwater.  The object of the game would be to swim to a golden key without touching any objects listed that are not bad.  After when you past the level you will get more challenged.  As you get higher in levels you will soon be able to change the back round and use more and different moves.  At the end you will get a gold medal.

My Humorous Monologue


WashingtonT_Comedy from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

To first start off my class had to to do a project on comedy/monologue.  Some things we worked on in class and outside of school were our B-roll, filming, how to sign out a camera and how to plan our work before starting our project.  I learned from this project how to work in iMovie and place things properly also to set up your file in iMovie neatly and correctly.  Other things I learned in this project was how to film B-roll and how to use the camera sign out properly.

Another important step is padding because it backs up your projects and many other things to.  The step of padding is crucial because it keeps your things safe in the process of your work. Padding is an advanced safety control to have your things all neatly.  This control helps in many ways like for example its like a net it catches things that are important. In my opinion padding really helped me cause it made things easier in my first iMovie project.

In my own opinion I think some weaknesses would have to be working in iMovie.  Another weakness is padding it may be helpful but it is much more difficult than it sounds.  Some strengths are using the cameras properly and planning your project.  I think these are more easier to work with because they have more options that are mentally and physically better to operate with.  I think some ways to improve these weaknesses and strengths are getting used to using the controls and the many ways of working on different projects.

Comedy Writing

A sense of humor is important because it shows how you feel or how you react to something.  There are so many ways why sense of humor is important for example if you tell a joke the sense of humor would show your reaction or expression to the joke.  To show sense of humor anything the audience is listening to has to have expressions and emotion.  Sense of humor is also important because it takes more than just a joke to see and hear sense of humor.  Last but not least sense of humor  is also important because it is what other people are feeling.



In my opinion I think comedy writing just has to come from what you think.  Some things you say may not be funny but sometimes you have to say what you think might be funny.  I think comedy writing can be a challenge because sometimes you have to wait till something comes to your mind.  Also when doing comedy writing you have to have confidence in yourself.  Comedy writing may be easy for you but it takes much more to go in front of a crowd and tell your original joke.




My comedic monologue was based on a random joker telling a joke to a city crowd.  In my opinion I thought it wasn't funny but everybody else started laughing.  The joker is silent and points at me with anger and such shock.  I think my joke was funny because it shows the sense of humor do to a random girl who thinks a joke is not funny but is also a buzz kill.  In the end the random girl starts to laugh and show that she was not a buzz kill.

Motivational Poster

So first the requirements to a motivational poster is to have some motivating quotes.  Then you need three pictures that symbolize your personal self.  Then you open all pictures and quotes in  you photo shop.  You will also need to kern your letters which means to move them closer.  Finally you will be done.

First step is that I had 3 #gtsym photos and a jumble and mixture of motivational quotes.  Then I downloaded all my pictures into photoshop and I also put my text layer inside photoshop.  The next step is to start kerning your letters.  Next you lay you pics to the background of the text.  Last but not least arrange photos by clicking the alt button and moving your photos around.

To start off with trouble my first was kerning and transporting all my pictures and my text. The kerning was hard because you have to move your words to a certain place to make it look good.  Another one is when you have to rearrange your photos.  With even more trouble I had a ton of hard time with moving photos around in photoshop.  Finally you will need to know how to finish and be creative.

Personal Manifesto

Five interesting things about me are that I love to play soccer, I like to play with different types of animals, going to the beach, hanging out with all of my friends, and taking long soothing walks down the road.  I've been playing soccer for six years and I continue to keep it up.  I have four dogs and I love playing with them.  When I go to the beach I splash the refreshing water against my face.  I love to hang out with my friends because we talk about so many amazing things.  Finally I like taking long walks because I love to exercise and live a healthy life style.

My manifesto is to, Live life to the fullest.  Just do it.  Always be positive.  Work hard.  Have fun.  No drama.  I can and I will.  Impossible is not a word.  Don't forget to smile.  Stop wishing start doing.  Inhale confidence and exhale doubt.  Be a fear-free person.  I hope to achieve all my beliefs by the end of the school year.  Live life to the fullest. Impossibles not a word. Never say never. your beautiful.  Be a leader not a follower. Stay healthy. No drama. Be happy. Be nice. Be yourself. Be unique. Be original. Be truthful. Succeed in your dreams. Always be positive. Just do it. Stay humble No grumble.

What's A Manifesto?  Well a manifesto is what the text is above.  A manifesto is a public declaration that creatively shares personal beliefs or ideas.  I think this manifesto will help very much because this paragraph of a manifesto will show you how to create or set examples for manifesto's.
