​The Process

Creating my spiral took a lot of precision. First I began making a right triangle, with Angle a and b to be both 1 inch. Then I connected them to make a full right triangle. Once that is done, I made another 1 inch line, connecting the previous triangle to start on the creation of the next. I keep that process going, until eventually it gradually increases in its hypotenuse and reaches its max.

Street Art

Posted by Indigo Burton in ART 9 - Hertz - a2 on
I've been intrigued by street art for some time now wondering if it was vandalism or art that meant something. My friends became interested too so we explored the internet in search for answers. We found that snod was a local street artist that liked to put inspirational quotes in his drawings. I then wanted to have a face of my own and that's how this picture came along. I decided I wanted it above eye sight so people would have to look up and really look at what I had there instead of it being some kind of vandalism. Since I've done this project I've realized that there is so much art on the streets that ivebeen missing

​Materials 
pencil 
protractor 

Step 1
I put a dot anywhere on the paper. After that I drew two 1 inch lines to form a right angle from the dot. Then I draw  line to connect the two 1 inch lines. When I did this it formed a right triangle. 

Step 2
After I created my first right triangle I put the dot that is located in the bottom middle of the protracted on top of my triangle highest peek, 

Step 3
After I made my make at 90 degrees. I the used the ruler at the bottom of the protractor to draw another  inch line aiming at the 90 degree mark. This line stemmed from the top of the hypotenuse on the original triangle I drew. 

My head’s messy, my room... clean.

I picked this because my mind is all over and my thoughts are as well. My room is clean and everything that’s mine in my room (I share with my sister) is clean. I have lights near the table because that's where I do my work. I have my bed nice and organized and my dresser is across from my bed. My sister likes go have her things all around the room so I usually clean them up. It is difficult sharing a room sometimes. Also, my head gets messy when I have a lot of work or something chaotic is going on. There is a lot of things I do to prevent my room from being messy like, cleaning up after I do something or I make my sister clean up after herself. I'm lucky because I have a big room so it honestly is not that difficult. It is more annoying than it does any harm. This is how my room looks and it describes me perfectly.


Vinyl Cutter

Posted by Talib Coffield-Zaboor in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - d2 on
This project, this instructional video was nothing but fun to me! Throughout this process it seemed to me that we would never get through with it because we couldn't get the cutter to work properly. We both were beginners with this machine, so we couldn't exactly figure out how to work it. During this video though it came easier to us because we was basically used to it. We made a tiny mistake during this video, but we figured the issue out and moved on with it. This project was fun one because we it was really a journey( like literally ) so I am proud that we can both say we know how to use this machine. Our initial goal was to make these posters so we can post them around school, but unfortunately we don't have enough time. We still succeeding with achieving the small task, so for that I am proud.

Instructional video

Posted by Robert Lemley in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - d2 on
I decided to do my video on how to use the chop saw. The chop saw was the first tool I used in the maker space. I used it to make the peg of our trashketball hoop. I did this video because i would see people use the chop saw incorrectly. so I though I would make an instructional video on how to use it properly. the only thing I saw that people weren't doing right was not leaving the blade inside the wood until the blade stopped. it took me about a whole class period to make this video. thanks to capture cast. capture cast is an extension were it automatically uploads and records videos for you. this was a very educational project. I earned how to use a new extension, and I look forward to using it again for some other project. 

How to use Wevideo By:Tsion Tucho

Posted by Tsion Tucho in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - d2 on

This video is the first step to getting to know wevideo and learn how to use it. The video that I have made is very simple and it is for first time user. I use Wevideo when I want to make an informative video especially for projects. It is very simple and if I forget some tips I can click on help and automatically there would be a person explaining the process which some websites don't do. The only bad thing about Wevideo is you have to pay if you want your video to be more than 7 minutes and 30 seconds, you have to upgrade. Also, you only get that amount of minutes once a month. What I did to accomplish this video screenshot every step that would take. The process was very simple because I got to know more about Wevideo in the past years so, every step that I made is what I am an expert in.  Wevideo is easy to use for anyone who wants to make a simple, easy, and cheap video.


Tech Project Quater 4

Posted by Tiffany Irick in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - C2 on
For this quater I learned how to use a little app to record my screen as I talk. Earlier in the year I used a website called adobe slate and I wanted to show the world how to use it. So therefore, I used a app called Techsmith Snagit. With this app I can show people how to use the website adobe slate well talking to them. Cool huh!!!! Well I learned how to use Techsmith Snagit and I thought it was very helpful. Not only was it helpful for me but it is also a great help to others that want to learn about other things. I think if I create a blog I can use that app to help me show others how to work different websites. This was a cool experience. One thing about the app is that it picks up lots of outside sounds. Therefore, you need to be in a more quite place to record. I learned that the hard way. But other than that I was fun to work with. 

Tech Project Q4

Posted by Indigo Harris in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - C2 on
Through out this process of this project I learned how to work a new app called Snagg it which allowed me to take a video of my screen as I explained everything that was going on. This is a app I will be able to use in the future when I have future presentations.I would recommend people use this app when trying to explain because it allows you actually show excatly what you are talking about 

Instructional Video Of Motor Fan.

Posted by Md Uddin in TECH (INTRO TO DESIGN MULTIMEDIA) - Hertz - d2 on
In my instructional video I decide to make motor fan for my tech project for quarter 3 and the reason why created because I wanted to create a small version of fan which run with Battery, I came up with smaller versions of motor fan that run with battery, So I can carry it with me anywhere I want, the reason why I make is and inspired me to make it because hot warm day at school I get really sweaty and because school fan is always at one of the 4 corner of the room and if you sit on others corner you will not able to feel the air, So I came up with old mind from childhood. The process that it took me to create this motor fan is about 3 hours, but technically it took be about two to three days because I was getting everything together. And I have learned lot of things during this project.

Life’s maze; you’re the puzzle solver

Life is a set of experiences that shape you up and make who you are. It depends on who lives it and how he/she decides to take course. Life is a puzzle that can be solved by choosing the right pieces or evading them. The same experiences that make up who you are, are the ones that will guide you towards success, in this case a : house / wife / kids / money / or just plain old success. YOU ARE WHO DECIDES TO LIVE, nobody else can control you unless you let them. Be you and only you, finish the puzzle awaiting you. One experience that shaped me up was when I was moving from my home country to another country in a totally different place. At first I felt uneasy but after a while I faced my fear of not fitting in and got accustomed to the new culture, environment, and manage to have a good experience after all. example: In my room I drew various boxes with sings of fragile and also some frames with photos of a family. I did this because it says that it reminds me when I was starting to move from PR to Philadelphia. It was a big leap that I never thought was going to happen, and it is something that I wanted to represent in my drawing. It connects to my experience because my house looked exactly how it looks now in the drawing.

Travel Project

Posted by Michelle Pizarro in SPANISH 2 - Moran - A on
The Travel Projects' objective was to create a travel company/agency. This project was a group project. Parts of this project included making a brochure, commercial to advertise your company, and a presentation or prezi. But this was not all, each group had to pick a place there "customers" would go to, like, Puerto Rico. For this project the groups had to make 5-day, 7-day, and 9-day packages. The packages had to include what the person would do each day spent at the Spanish speaking place that was chosen. All of that was included in the brochure that had to be printed in color and in complete Spanish. The commercial was also in complete Spanish. The commercials idea is was to advertise your company, this included a number to call, and the company's' name. The presentation was to explain one of the packages, talk a bit more about wherever the chosen place was, and also go into more detail about transportation's, religions, touristic parts of the place, restaurants, etc. 
This project was a "time taking project". To complete this project with exceeding expectations or meeting expectations the group must really be cautious with time, because there was so many steps to this. For this project my group and I work pretty hard for this but could've done better. Though the grade we earn was not what we wanted, we all enjoyed this project and all collaborated well together.

Poetry Project

Posted by Michelle Pizarro in SPANISH 2 - Moran - A on
​ For the poetry project students had to choose a Spanish/Hispanic poet from the ones provided. After choosing our poet we had to research and learn more about them. There was multiple tasks and parts of this project that was needed to complete in order to earn a good grade and meet or exceed expectations. These parts included writing a biography about the poet that was chosen by the student completely Spanish, find a poem that the student liked, write about what we thought about the poem, like themes, write an autobiography and also make a poem based on the same type of theme. All of these parts had to be completed in Spanish. 
For this project I personally think I did very well. This was a pretty easy project and the parts of the project were easy to complete and exceed expectations. I enjoyed learning about the poets and also reading the poems that the poets made. In my opinion this was an easy project and interesting. This was an easy A project as long as the student completed everything correctly.

This picture has no meaning it is something that I thought about while drawling i so it is a bunch of random things. If this things didn't exist i wouldn't know about them nor like them so the influenced me. I picked a random place to put this so that everyone could see it, it wasn't special. No my views on art has not changed what so ever.
