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.

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.
