Media and Design Ignite Presentat

Anaya Thomas-Gomez

• Slide One: My name is Anaya and I will presenting my projects for my media and design class. In this class I create different things using different media tools. The projects I did this quarter was I first created a website. After I created the website I used the 3D printer and created a name tag. The last project I did was I made a road sign.

• Slide Two: This is my webiste that I made in the beginning of the school year. These are screenshots of the main page of the website and the all about me page.

• Slide Three: For the first quarter I had to make a website. The website had to be about me. In this website I added things such as an “about me” page and a “project” page. The goal of this project was to make a website that we could use as a portfolio.

• Slide Four: During the process of this project I found that it was quite successful. I found it successful because I didn’t really run into any problems when creating the website. Also I used my class time wisely so anything I had a problem with I could communicate with my peers and teacher for help.

• Slide Five: These are photos of what I created on the 3D printer. The first image is a screenshot from the online software I used which was tinkercad. The second image is what I printed from the 3D printer.

• Slide Six: For this project, my main goal was to learn how to use the 3D printer. During the process I found out that the 3D printer is easy but the difficult part was creating the image on the online software. Since I was new to 3D imaging I decided to make something simple, I made a keychain.

• Slide Seven: This project ended up being successful. My project was successful because I followed all of the checkpoints. In the beginning of the project the checkpoints was to watch tutorials and practice them. This helped a lot.

• Slide Eight: This is an image that I created using the website pixlr.com.

• Slide Nine: For this project I was to make a road sign. I had to use  a graphic design browser. For my project I wanted my a sign that symbolized watching your mouth since a lot of people in our generation don’t do this.

• Slide Ten: This project ended not being successful in my eyes. I say this because it ended up not looking like a road sign and a poster instead. Also my project wasn’t visually appealing. Although I worked hard on this project the website that I chose to use wasn’t the easiest and didn’t have a lot of options.

• Slide Eleven: For my revisions I took out the downloaded documents and put in the text entry. I also added questions to my about me page that described me. Along with this I added a slide show for the project that included 1 or more pictures.

• Slide Twelve: I chose this project because this project is basically an online portfolio and I thought it was important to edit it. I chose to do the slide show because when I first did this project it was difficult to do so since I had more time I did it.

• Slide Thirteen: This is what it looked like after I made my revisions.

• Slide Fourteen:  When I started this class I was unsure on what to expected. I just wanted to know what exactly media and design was and I assumed it would help my technology skills.

• Slide Fifteen: An area where I showed growth was being able to follow directions. I say this because with most of the projects that I have done this quarter I was unfamiliar with and was able to do this projects with the specific directions from the checkpoint.

• Slide Sixteen: A skill that I used was tinkercad. In ninth grade I used tinkercad in one of my mini courses to build a desk. I was still unfamiliar with the tool so the project I did this year helped me with that tool.

• Slide Seventeen: An idea I want to do is the coding project. I want to try this project because coding is something you can use a lot, we live in a pretty advanced world.

• Slide Eighteen: A tip for someone who is taking this class is to not procrastinate. Procrastination will hold you back.

• Slide Nineteen: Another tip is to follow directions. Directions are pretty clear and will help you.
