Semester Reflection (Final) - Video

Projects

Feature Story Number One 


This project is  my first feature story I produced in video class. The video is about my friend who overcame anorexia to become a bodybuilder. This project took me one week to film one week to edit and one day to complete the revisions on the video. Some challenges I faced when producing this video was having time to film my clients as we both had very busy schedules. Another challenge I faced while creating this video was I was still fairly new to the editing software and it took me awhile to learn the software efficiently and it really slowed down the process. Along the way I learned plenty of things. One important thing I learned was how to use Adobe Premiere. The next big thing i learned was how to adjust radio and make everything glow nicely together. The last new thing I learned while producing this assignment was how to manage the camera and make sure that the NAT noise is on so one can pick up audio. Some feedback I was given for this assignment was mostly positive. Some positive comments that were said were "the use of the six shot system was nice", "you had great NAT noise", "The interview question were great and the people getting interviewed provided great responses", "great voiceover". As always constructive advice is always need so here are some negative comments I received "too much background noise during the interviews", and "the pictures did not fill the entire screen". When I got to make revisions to make my video better the first thing I changed was Making the interviews louder to block out some of the background noise. Another aspect that I changed in the video was putting their names in the video so people knew who the interview was. Overall I really enjoyed doing this project from the editing to the filming. Every aspect of creating a feature story is fun and is one of the most enjoyable assignments I received during first semester. In terms of this project for the video being my first feature story i was extremely proud of how it turned out. In this video there was some aspects I needed to improve and as the class move forward and learned new things my video became a lot better and are produced to the best of my ability.

ONW Now Video

This project was a video I produced for the sophomore ONW Now production. This video took me 50 minutes to film put a voiceover together and edit the film. Some challenges I faced when creating this video was my partner was gone for a week leaving me a day to edit film and create a voiceover for the project. Another challenge I had was blocking out a squeak that was in all of the clips I shot and I had to balance all the audio so the audience cannot hear the unpleasant sound. Along the way I learned never to do a group project because more than likely I will have to do all the work and be rushed to make a quality video. I have not been given any feedback for this video yet. However, I personally think this is the best video I have produced. Even though I had 50 minutes to create a film for my final this is great quality and I am very proud of what I've created. I have not changed anything yet but if i had a chance to make revisions I would edit the title of the interviewee names to make a more fitting and quality title. My My overall opinion of this project is I love this video. I woke really hard on this video and put all my effort into reading a quality video.

Use of Class Time 

I used my class time very efficiently. I was always working hard in this class and not a second went by where I wasn't working hard. I had every assignment turned in on time and always produced great quality work. When I had finished early or thought I finished early I stayed Productive by doing plenty of other activities. One thing I would do if I finished early was ask my fellow peers who also finished early to critique my video. Having done this if anything needed to be changed I could go back and do so with plenty of time to spare. Another thing I did to stay productive if I finished early was I was constantly updating my blog with fresh content that I had just created. The last thing I did to stay productive when I finished early was help my fellow peers with their videos. Outside of class I put in a lot of work. I was constantly coming in to re-edit videos. Or I was coming in during lunch to finish up videos and get ahead of everyone else. Another thing I did out of class was keeping my blogs updated with my latest work. To better myself as a production student i participated in plenty of out of school filming such as being a sideline reporter, being an ONW Now Gameday host, and I filmed plenty of sports games. All of these extra hours I spent out of class doing this work really helped become a better speaker, writer, and film maker. 

Strengths 

As an employee I have three huge strengths that I pride myself on. My first strength and my biggest strength is I am a very hard worker. My second strength as an employee is I never give up on assignment or anything in life. I always find a way to push through and finish what I started. My last strength as an employee is I am a perfectionist. This could also be viewed as a weakness also as I will not continue with an assignment unless everything looks perfect at that very moments. However, this is a strength for me as people will know I product quality work and I produce the best work. As a video producer I have three main strengths I pride myself on. My first strength is my ability to create quality content in little amounts of time. I was able to show this skill off yesterday when I had 50 minutes to create a video from scratch with no help even though I was suppose to have a partner. My second strength as a student in video class is my understanding of the editing software. My third strength as a video production student is I can write a really good blog post. I am able to maximize my strengths by working hard, staying on task, and not letting anything get in my way of creating a quality video.

Areas of Improvement 

An area of improvement that really brought me down this year is my collaboration skills. In the beginning of the year I talked to much to my fellow classmates and really hurt their progress. However as the year went on however I fixed this problem and no longer is it an issue for me or my peers. To fix this problem I just brought headphones to class and only listened to music instead of distracting them with my voice. Other than this small issue in the begging of the year I have no where to improve. I am glad i fixed this problem as ever since I have me and my peers work became a whole lot better and we are ahead of the curve.

Summary

I loved plenty of things this semester. One thing I loved was the classmates I sit by. My classmates really made me enjoy this class and made me look forward to coming to this class everyday. Another thing I really enjoyed was creating the feature stories. Feature stories are fun to make and allow me to film what I am interested in. What I would change about this class is not having to do group projects. I was assigned a group project for our last assignment which was the most important assignment and my partner did absolutely nothing. In the future if we do have to do group assignments I hope to get assigned a good partner who will actually do something for the project except stare at the screen. What I am going to take away from this semester of graphic design is in order to succeed in life one needs to work hard. Next semester I have one goal. The goal I am setting for myself does not just apply in Video Production class but applies to life and that goal is to be the best at everything I do in life. I have no final thoughts. 

Semester Reflection (Final) - Graphic Design

Projects

Raccoon Postcard

This project is a raccoon postcard that was assigned to us in our very early stages of graphic design. This project took around two weeks to complete. Some of the challenges I faced when completing this project was creating the raccoon, brainstorming an original theme for the postcard, and creating handmade typography. Along the way I learned plenty of new skills. The skills I learned was how to use pathfinder tools, how to make an object look like its waving, and how to create animals/ humans from shapes. Some feedback I was given when the project was presented to my classmates consisted of many negative comments such as "Plain Background", "The raccoon is not PC because he is wearing a Donald Trump shirt", and "The black lines on the tail are off and don't look right".Some positive feedback I received from my teacher and a few classmates consisted of "The raccoon looks nice","I like the theme","The flags work unique and very well created". After getting the feedback I just changed the black lines on the tail because I felt as if that was the only item on the whole postcard that needed to be changed. Other than the black lines that I corrected, I was extremely pleased with how my work turned out. My overall opinion of  the design process is it was extremely fun to create a post card using the raccoon and the project wasn't challenging. As I stated previously, I am extremely pleased with this project and consider it to be one of the best works I have produced as a graphic designer. 

Photoshop Challenge 

This project was our challenge project for our photoshop portion of graphic design. The class was told to let our imagination run and create what ever we wanted to on this man. This project took two class periods each class period being around 30 minutes. Some challenges I encountered when working on this project was not really knowing how to do anything. I had to teach myself on how to fill photos with certain designs. Along the way I learned one huge skill that helped me in plenty of other projects down the corse of first semester. The skill is called layer mask. Layer mask is what I used to pt the photos of the nature on his body. On this project I received only positive feedback. Some comments my classmates said were "I like the designs", "The photo you put on his neck was really creative and make it look like a tattoo", and "The whole project just looks very clean and neat". On this project I changed nothing as I for the first time received no negative feedback. My overall opinion of the design process is I really loved doing this project as it gave me the ability to show my creativity, something we don't get to do a lot in this class because of all the tutorials we are required to follow. I am extremely please with this project as it is my most clean and well thought out project. 

Time

I have used my class time very effectively this semester. When I get into class I get right to work and don't waste a second of time as every second is needed when completing these projects. When I was done or thought I was done I stayed productive in plenty of ways. One way i stayed productive was by asking my fellow classmates who were also done to critique my work to see if anything need to be fixed, changed or deleted. Another way I stayed productive was by not bothering my other classmates who were hard at work completing their own assignments. The last thing I did to stay productive was I worked on other projects or I created my own projects to work on. Outside of class I would come in to finish projects or to make them look nicer and more clean. I also spent a lot of timeout of class updating my blog so I could keep my readers interested in my works. Another thing I did out of class was watch tutorials on youtube to enhance my understanding of what our current project was about, or how I could enhance my own projects by following the tutorials. 

Strengths 

As an employee I have three huge strengths that I pride myself on. My first strength and my biggest strength is I am a very hard worker. My second strength as an employee is I never give up on assignment or anything in life. I always find a way to push through and finish what I started. My last strength as an employee is I am a perfectionist. This could also be viewed as a weakness also as I will not continue with an assignment unless everything looks perfect at that very moments. However, this is a strength for me as people will know I product quality work and I produce the best work. As a graphic designer I have one strength and that is I learn skills and other thing very easily and quick. I maximize all my strengths by working hard and staying on task. If I can stay on task which I always am there is not a thing I can't accomplish. 

Improvements 

An area of improvement that really brought me down this year is my collaboration skills. In the beginning of the year I talked to much to my fellow classmates and really hurt their progress. However as the year went on however I fixed this problem and no longer is it an issue for me or my peers. To fix this problem I just brought headphones to class and only listened to music instead of distracting them with my voice. Other than this small issue in the begging of the year I have no where to improve. 

Summary

I loved plenty of things this semester. One thing I loved was the classmates I sit by. My classmates really made me enjoy this class and made me look forward to coming to this class everyday. Another thing i enjoyed about this class was the projects were we the creators had free range to do whatever we wanted to do. The project where we had to follow tutorials were not fun nor did they challenge the creator. In this class i would change two things. One thing I would change would be letting the creator have more control of their product. We the creators had very few assignments where we actually got to influence the project by putting our own view of things. The last thing I would do differently s not talk as much as I use to. That issue really brought my grade down first later and I had to work hard to bring it up. What I am going to take away from this semester of graphic design is in order to succeed in life one needs to work hard. Next semester I have one goal. The goal I am setting for myself does not just apply in graphic design but applies to life and that goal is to be the best at everything I do in life. I have no final thoughts.

Feature Story 2

Feature Story 2




Concept

I had plenty of concepts behind my second feature story. One concept behind my video was to showcase the athletic ability of the Olathe Northwest high school wrestlers. Another concept I had in mind when creating my video was to highlight how hard it is to be good at wrestling on and off the mat. From practice to eating correctly i really wanted to showcase the challenges top tier wrestlers go through. The last concept I had in mind when creating my second feature story was to highlight two varsity wrestlers Brady Pellman and Jake Herl. 

Narrative Lead

The narrative lead I put in my video was the sound of the Olathe Northwest wrestling team warming up by performing a light jog around the map. It affected my video by setting the mood for the video that it was going to be about wrestling. It also helped my video by viewers understand the concept of the video before it even started. 

Who I Interviewed

I interviewed two varsity wrestlers at Olathe Northwest. The wrestlers names are Brady Pellman and Jake Herl. The two interviewees complemented eachother nicely and provided great responses and gave the video an exciting aspect. The two interviewees also complemented eachother becuase they both agreed on most questions which allowed me being the editor to combine the clips as one.

Experience editing and Filming

I edited this video using Adobe Premiere Pro. Editing video is the least fun of most of my projects as i don't really consider myself to be that great. So the editing for this video is quite average nothing that special. The filming portion for this project was quite fun as filming is my favorite part of every project. When filming i tried to get the six shot system and apply the one thirds rule in the interview. I did however mess up on my filming as all the clips are blurry. 

Feedback

The feedback I got from my class was mostly negative as this is what they said 
  • Videos were blurry
  • Did not have a conclusion to the video
  • Interview was washed out
  • Too much background noise on some of the clips
  • Not enough B-Roll
  • Some clips did not fit the mood
  • Abrupt ending
The only positive feed back I got was from my teacher to which she said 
  • The video highlighted the athletes and the sport well
  • Good questions and interviews 
  • Good voiceover
This was all the feed back I received for my video.

Conclusion

If i could make any changes with my video I would make two substantial changes. One would be having a voiceover at the end of the video to address the last question and not have to video end so abrupt. The last change would be Making sure that when I film i make sure that i am getting clear and quality footage. Overall this was a fun assignment as I like shooting feature story and like the journalism side of video.  I look forward to doing more projects like this in the future.

Infographic

Infographic

Experience Creating the Infographic

Making the infographic was fairly fun and not challenging at all. The project however was very time consuming as we had to make everything on the infographic ourselves. The only picture I did not create myself on this project was the photos of Lebron James and Michael Jordan faces put together, and the photos of the shoes. The hardest part of creating the infographic was putting Lebron and Jordans face together to make them match perfectly. The first step of the project was creating a wireframe for the project to layout the infographic. That was fairly simple as we were given a 11 X 17 infographic and had to draw out our plans. After that we had to implement all of the aspects drawn on our sketch to Adobe Illustrator. 

Concept for Infographic 

The concept for the infographic was to showcase the best basketball players of all time being Michael Jordan and Lebron James. Another reason I created this infographic was because I was tired of people in the barber shop saying Lebron ain't this, Lebron ain't that, Lebron ain't no hitta. So in hope to get those in my barber shop to stop saying Lebron ain't a hitta I created this to show how Lebon stacks up to Jordan.

What Makes a Good Feature Story

Best Feature Story For Sophomore Video Production


What Makes a Good Feature Story 

Concept

The first part to making a great feature story is having a great concept that will keep the audience interested in the video. When the class was first creating a feature story for this assignment our teacher stressed having a great concept and even stated "Having a good concept will lead you to having a good video." Without a great concept no one wants to spend the time to watch the video. Some other great feature stories besides the video above that have great concepts that the class used as examples when creating our own would be about a mom who wore 26 different shirts when running a mile, a teacher who has had a long lasting influence on his students, and a man who drives a semi across the nation to save dogs. All these video have one thing in common they all have a great concept that kept the audience interested and wanting to continue watching the video. 

Good Interview

Another crucial part to having a great feature story that people want to watch is having a good interview and a well shot interview. If the people getting interviewed do not give great responses the video will suck. In the video above both the people getting interviewed do a great job of answering the questions asked and give the view a reason to continue to watch the video. As for how the interview is shot it is important to get the interview shot in the environment that you are making a video about. It would not make sense to make a video about a teacher who has influenced her students greatly and shoot it at a prison. This video above does a good job of showing the environment that the video is about in her interview. Another good part to having a good interview is having good lighting.

Feature Story Experince

Reflection 

Concept for the Video

The concept for the video was to explain the story of a student at ONW who does something exiting outside of school. For my video the concept was to explain how my friend Griffen Allen overcame anorexia to become a teen bodybuilder. The message I wanted to get across with this video is that with handwork and dedication it is possible to accomplish anything in life. I also hope that this video inspires some to go out and accomplish their goals in life and feel proud of themselves. 

Narrative Lead

The narrative lead in my video i feel is very strong and is one of the best parts of my video. The narrative lead affected my video by making it a lot stronger. The lead also helps the audience get interested in the video and keeps them watching the video and not getting bored. Without the narrative lead i feel like m video would be missing an important piece and the video wouldn't be ass good and it would be boring. 

Who I Interviewed 

I interviewed ONW sophomore Griffen Allen and Mill Valley senior Sterling Franzwa. They complimented each other very well in my personal opinion. They flow really well together as they are best friends and have been working out together for years. I feel like even though they don't state this directly in  the video the vibe between the two can be felt through the video and you can really feel how proud Sterling is of Griffen. Another way they complemented each other is both there responses are heart warming and both flow together nicely. 

Creating the Voiceover 

When creating the voiceover I found the process to be fairly easy and pretty fun to make. The only struggle I had when making the voiceover was it was hard to get the voiceover to flow with interview clips. Other than that i feel the voiceover made the video a lot stronger and better overall. 

Feature Story Process

The writing process for a feature story is quite challenging. The most challenging part of the written feature story is coming up with a great introduction that hooks the reader into reading more. After  I came up with a good way to describe the intro to my video in written form the rest was simple. The rest of the written feature story consist of my voiceover in the video and Griffin's responses to the question i asked him in the interview. The last challenging process of the written feature story is the conclusion / ending. The hard part of the conclusion was finding a way to connect the ending to the intro without repeating the introduction. 

Emotion Towards the Feature Story

Writing the feature story was quite fun in my opinion. While it was a challenging process I had a lot of fun transforming my video into word form. The whole feature story process from creating the video, doing the voiceover, editing the video, and writing the feature story was really fun and enjoyable.



Written Feature Story


You can hear Sterling Franzwa getting his workout partner Griffin Allen pumped up for a set of 80-pound dumbbell incline bench. The first few reps go up as smooth as butter, but by the time Griffin gets to his fifth rep he starts to show sign of struggle. Sterling yells some motivating words at Griffin and is able to get him to push up 7 more reps. As soon as Griffin gets done with his set he drops the dumbbells on the floor and everyone in the gym could hear a loud bang.

Many students spend their time outside of school doing a variety of activities such as playing sports, doing homework, or hanging out with friends. Griffin Allen on the other hand spends his time outside of school dedicating his life to bodybuilding. Griffin explains his emotional story of how he overcame anorexia to become a teen bodybuilder. Griffin stated, “Well the emotional part I’d say from being really scrawny to putting on some weight and muscle you know I just feel better about myself less insecure. The best part physically of it is working out putting on muscle getting into shape. One it just gives me the since that I can accomplish anything.” Griffin has had a lot of supporters throughout his amazing transformation. When I interviewed his workout partner Sterling Franzwa about what he thinks of Griffin’s transformation this is what he said.
“Griffin being my best friend transforming himself to the biggest and best version of himself makes me want to do the same for my body.” When I asked Griffin if he could give any advice to those who want to be like him this is what he said. “Anyone who’s trying to put on some weight and muscle eat, eat, eat, a lot. Another important piece of advice is work hard, lift heavy with good form and get sleep. Griffin said sleep is the most important part to building muscle and letting the body recover.”

I think everyone can learn something from Griffin Allen and his journey of how he became a bodybuilder. Even if one’s goal is not to get big or care about the gym you can take away his work ethic. He has dedicated his life to something he loves and you can do the same.

Raccoon Project

Fall Raccoon


Our first part of the assignment for Adobe Illustrator was to create a raccon with a fall vibe. So to achieve a fall vibe I added a light pink background because it is a soft color and fall reminds me of soft colors. Another object I added to achieve a fall vibe was berries and trees. My image for creating the tress was to sort of copy the Mulan trees. I really enjoy using Adobe Illustrator because its fun and gives the creator a more ability to create their artistic design then staying in photoshop. Another reason i enjoyed Adobe Illustrator and why my experience with the program was so enjoyable was Adobe Illustrator is very simple to use and once you master the program it can really bring your work to life.

Raccoon Postcard




The other part of our first Adobe Illustrator project was to create a postcard using the raccoon we created above. My Vision for the postcard was to create a 4th of July themed postcard. I wanted to make the postcard as American as I could because that what 4th of July is all about expressing your freedom and happiness for living in the best country in the world. To make the most american postcard possible I made the raccoon in a Donald Trump shirt, holding two flags, with stars and stripes bowtie, and a starts and stripes top hat. Overall I really liked how my postcard turned out and think that I did a really great job creating the postcard to a 4th of July theme. If I were to change one thing about the project however I would add fireworks in the background and possibly add an eagle to the bottom of the raccoon to make it look like the raccoon was riding the eagle. 

Behance

The last part to our project was to upload our project to Behance. Bechance is a website where other graphic design artist upload their works for other graphic artist to view. The uploading process is fairly simple.

Adobe Premiere Tutorial

How to Create Bins on Adobe Premiere 


To add bins on Adobe premiere is extrememly simple and comes very useful when in the process of making a long video to organize clips.

1) First to creating bins is to locate the add bin button. It is located at the bottom left of the screen near the imported clips section.










2) To add a new bin you can either click on the add bin button or use the shortcut which is Control+/ (Windows) or Command+/ (MacOS). (The button to add a new bin looks like a folder)






3) Now that we have added a new bin it will appear in the imported clips section.










4) To rename the bin to what you want just double click the bin and a highlight of the current name will appear and you can type what you want.









5) After that is done all you need to do is drag the clips that you want to be in the bin into the bin.
(These are the clips in the bin a popup should occur if you dragged the clips in the bin correctly if not Look at step 6)








6) Step 6 is for those who did not get a popup on the screen when you drag clips into the bin. To access those clips dropped into the bin all that you need to do is double click on the bin and the clips should pop up. 
After you double click the pop up should happen then you will be able to access the clips you want.






I hope this tutorial has helped you in creating videos and organizing the clips you have edited so your workspace does not look cluttered and like trash.

ONW 1 in 2000

    About the Interview 

I interviewed Landon Daniel in this video. In this interview/Video we discussed about Landon's amazing summer where he visited New York and did some exiting activities. Over the interview I learned some interesting facts about Landon as we go to a very deep personal level. Some interesting things that I would like to share about Landon is he is a huge Royals fan and this was his inspiration for making this trip out to New York so that he could go watch a Royals game at Citi feild vs. the Mets. Another interesting thing I learned about Landon was his biggest fear about the trip to New York was the possible terrorist attacks that may occur. Now this says something about America that really disappoints me that a fellow American is scared for his life that he might get bombed its a true shame. 

  Experience with Voiceover   

One of the requirements for this assignment was to write a voiceover. The process of writing the voice over was pretty simple as I am great in writing in formal language. However I did find it a little odd that we had to type out certain words that might of confused our minds when reading. When I had to speak however to get the aduio  that is a whole different story. At first i couldn't record the audio because it was to awkward and id didn't want to say the lines infant of my peers. But after I got over the fear of this recording was simple and the voice over came out really well. 

Experience with Video 

The video filming for this project was fairly simple. All my partner and I had to do was choose a location with good lighting and sit in front of it pretty simple. One struggle we had with filming however was getting the white balance correct and having a solid focus. Another trouble we had was not catching any background noise because the room we herein was fairly loud but with some simple editing that can be cut out. Overall the whole filming process is the most fun of any project and the part  I enjoy the most on any project. 

What I Like about my Video 

What I like about my video is the editing style I used. Another thing I enjoyed about my video is the questions I asked in the video and the answers from my partner. The last thing I enjoyed about my video is the serious tone my partner and I have throughout the video because I feel no interview should be upbeat it should be to the point and get it over with.

ONW Procedures


The idea for this project was to teach good behavior at ONW for incoming freshman or new students attending ONW. In my video I wanted to demonstrate how to check out a book at ONW and how to act in the library. In pre-production we created storyboard to map out the key shots we needed to shoot and where we were going to shoot the shots along with what angle each shot was going to be. Along the way I learned how to use the new camera software and a new editing software called Adobe Premier and how to collaborate with classmates and managing project deadlines. if I were to do something different I would have added more detail shots to the video and added more music to better fit the mood of the clips. Things that i would keep the same is the editing style and the key clips I have in the video. For the next project i will put more detail shots like from different angles and add better music. Overall I enjoyed this project a lot because i got to collaborate with other students and have fun while filming.

Photoshop Tutorials


Final Product

In photoshop I learned the basics on how each tool is used and when to correctly use each tool efficiently. Some key tools that are very useful in photoshop are the clone tool, spot healing brush, and the quick select tool. The clone tool is very important because it can cover up blemishes that are on an image with surrounding background. The spot healing brush is important because it can cover up a messy background and blemishes by blending the surrounding objects. The quick select tool  is useful because it is very helpful in adding a double expose effect as seen in the picture above. The favorite skill i learned throughout these projects was the quick select tool and the clone tool. Both these tools will be very helpful in the future because it allow me to customize photos with my creativity and cover up blemishes easier. My strengths throughout all of this was knowing how to use the tools. My weakness for these assignments was I am a perfectionist and i didn't want to move onto another assignment until every project looked perfect. If I were to change something it would be his dress shirt he has on. I would make the Supreme x Bape logo a little darker to make it pop more. What i would keep the same would be the suit jacket he has on. I would keep the suit jacket the same because I like the black and white effect and the text. Overall I really like doing the challenge portion of the photo shop tutorials (picture above) because it allowed me to use my skills without having to follow another person step-by-step. It also allowed me to show my creativity.

Team Project

Team Project

My Project for quarter 4 was called Beef n' Go and our team name was called "We The Best". What we did well together was we all communicated about our project and we all assigned parts to the project to people and finished everything on time. The part we struggled the most on was creating the website. I feel as if we were rushed to complete it and was not done to our teams best ability.  Next team project what i would do differently is make more time do do the most important part which is the website. If there is anything I would change it would be the teachers giving us more time so we do not have to rush our product. I have improved with my technical skill of all of the software that we used. For this Project I worked on the animation, team logo, coupon for the product, filmed the comercial and a little bit of the website.

PhotoShop 101

Photoshop Projects

In my e-Comm class we did a series of photoshop
projects following tutorials from our graphic design 
teacher. Our inspiration for these projects were our
school also known as ONW. The projects were not 
that hard but just took a decent amount of time.

Website


This is a website I created for my graphic design class. I created this website using the program Dreamweaver. Making this website was quite challenging. I made this website while following tutorials from my old teacher Mr.Olsen who made excellent video tutorials that were clear cut and to the point. The color scheme I chose for the website was generated by a website that I used. The 3rd and 4th photos are the css styles and the html pages used to decorate the actual page to make it pretty and professional. The html code page I created is used for the actual creating of the website. The html is used to do all the background stuff that usually isn't seen on the actual website even when you pull it up. The     html is however the hardest as there are a lot of   complicated deails to follow in order not to          mess everything up.
