Quater 4 project

Posted by Zoe Staack in Intro to Film & Video Prod · Hertz · C2 on Thursday, May 24, 2018 at 9:42 am
For my quater 4 project I decided to do photo editing. Which I created a tribute to one of my favorite childhood movies "beauty and the Beast". My goal was to make what was basically a movie poster. I found copyright free photos and using pixlr overlapped them using a variety of tools. At first for my project I wanted to photoshop a kitten in space but do to my little knowledge on about photoshop  it was to difficult for me to accomplish, so I decided to change my project to something that I knew I could complete. Using the laso tool, magic wand tool, eraser tool, and sponge tool I overlapped the three photos and created my final project. I had to use many different roses until I found the one that worked the way I wanted. After doing this I believe I have relativly mediocore knowledge in pixlr. Using pixlr made my project better than it would have been, it was the easiest program to use. I would reccomed for future students to use pixlr as well as have a clear idea of what they want to creat before hand. If I were to do this project over I would try to start earlier and finish my checkpoints. I also wish I picked higher quality photos cause it is very pixle-lated. Overall I am not super proud of my work this quater, but I learned a lot about the program and time managment. This project made me relize that really like photography, but in a nateral way were you dont change they way things really look.

Litter pollution

Posted by Zoe Staack in Environmental Science · Aziz · E on Tuesday, January 23, 2018 at 10:09 am
https://youtu.be/47gPXWLZN1k
​My group created a PSA about litter pollution in philadelphia and around the world. We talk about what it is and its effects on the environment. As well as how litter and how we handle it, is not environmentally just. We chose to do litter pollution because of the fact that we all see litter on our streets in our day to day life. 
Overall I contributed to the group in many ways. I conducted research and kept all of us on track. If I were to do this project again I would make sure that I did the individual reflection on time. I would also put moments into the video were living things are interacting with litter to show the harmful effects. Im glad we can put out or message and are able to take the time to learn about environmental justice.

Natural Disasters; Tornado

Posted by Zoe Staack in Environmental Science · Aziz · E on Tuesday, September 19, 2017 at 10:23 am
https://zstaack.wixsite.com/tornadoteach
We chose to create a web site and further research tornadoes. Tornadoes have an impact on all the earths systems and cause mass destruction, not only that but they can happen at any time and are almost unpredictable. Which leaves me to wonder if scientist are working on a way to predict in coming tornadoes? Overall my group and I worked well together and used our class time wisely. We are proud of our web site which we created to hopefully teach people about tornadoes and how to stay safe. Based on feed back from our class mates we could have included more resources, had more visuals, and summarized our information into bullet point. Something we did well was our organization and detailed information.

______________________________________________________________________________________

En Espanol

Es una calle larga y silenciosa.

Ando en tinieblas y tropiezo y caigo

y me levanto y piso con pies ciegos

las piedras mudas y las hojas secas

y alguien detrás de mí también las pisa:

si me detengo, se detiene;

si corro, corre. Vuelvo el rostro: nadie.

Todo está oscuro y sin salida,

y doy vueltas y vueltas en esquinas

que dan siempre a la calle

donde nadie me espera ni me sigue,

donde yo sigo a un hombre que tropieza

y se levanta y dice al verme: nadie

Oral History: Jan Clark ( Zoe Staack )

Posted by Zoe Staack in AFRICAN AM HISTORY - Roy - X on Tuesday, May 19, 2015 at 9:20 pm
​

Abstract

In this interview Jan Clark talks about her views and opinions on racism during the civil rights movement. She shares with us her experience in Philadelphia at this time. She tells me of her disgust with George Wallace and his state troopers in front of the school.


   Research

On June 11th 1963 George Wallace the governor of Alabama stood in front of the University of Alabama preventing two African Americans from attending the school. Deputy Attorney General Nicholas Katzenbach told George to step away, but George determined to keep his promise of "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" did not step away. Nicholas Katzenbach called the president (JFK) to the issue, and told George by order of the president he must step away allowing the two African Americans to enroll.

Jan: Perhaps even more so.


Zoe: Um, Moving on what was your most memorable thing you saw during this time?


Jan: ah it would have been what I saw on television because I lived in philadelphia and I was accustomed to full integration of schools and every other place and I was appalled seeing what conditions were like in the segregated south.

I do remember um at children's hospital when I was assigned there as a student and it was at 18th and bainbridge philadelphia it was an African American neighborhood and I remember being up on the roof and playing songs, protest songs that I had learned on my guitar and we were all singing and the neighbors were clapping.


Zoe: Um do you remember the name of any of the songs?


Jan: Well of course “we shall overcome” and “back of the bus” and songs like that.

Artist statement

I picked to light up a stuffed animal because I’ve had mine before I was born. Its a small little polar bear, who is gray now. My bears name is pobo cause I couldn't say polar bear when I was little. I took my bear everywhere I went. My bear was my best friend. Pobo kept me safe and made my feel free to be myself. My stuffed animal is a huge part of who I am today. Thats way I picked to do this for my project.

A picture is worth a thousand words

I picked this picture because it is so simple and unclear it can mean lots of things. I picked the words I did because it can mean many things and provide lots of messages. For example I want people to think "Why am I messing with this person" "why am I posting this". What you say and do online can change yours and some elses life.
