Senior Farewell Projects
My Group:
Gerald
Rachael
Tyvery
Our project is going to be a time capsule.
We are contributing knowledge and information future students may need to know.
My part in the group was to direct the way the video was made and I gave a few picture to put into the video too.

Pre-capstone Presentation
For my capstone presentation I had my infographic poster, wesite and PSA. I thought about making a trifold presentation but my end product was on my computer so I didn't make it. I did use a trifold to put my poster on and I also used it as a "back drop". I also had some candy which I handed out to people whether they listened to me or not.

Infographic Poster
My capstone is about fixing common computer issues so my poster gives few examples of common computer issues. The hardest part about my poster was creating the poster and deciding what went on there. I still need to work on my poster to make it better by adding more information to it. I did not create my capstone poster during winter term because my class didn't have enough time to work on it.

PSA "Wrap Up"
PSA
My PSA was about how people don't understand how to fix some computer problems that occur but by using my app they can find a simple solution. My PSA did meet the requirements.
I was very inspired when I saw the Girl Effect and I wanted to use Kinetic Typography to create my PSA. I started working on my PSA on Adobe After effects. I was not familiar with the program therefore I spent a lot of time researching on how to work with it. After I somewhat figured out how to use After Effects, I worked my heart out and about 5 classes and 55 minutes each class later, I was nowhere near what I wanted. And what I made was only about 9 seconds long. I finally decided that After Effects wasn't for me so I asked our professor if I could just use PowerPoint (because I'm really familiar with how to use it). I promised that I could make the transitions go through each slides automatically and that it would be just like a video. But then I realized I had to have it in video format if I had to put it on Youtube or Vimeo.
After doing some research, I figured out how to convert a powerpoint into a video. So I started working on the PSA. The powerpoint ended up being about 230 slides. The I put the slides into Garageband where I added music to go along with the slides. Finally I exported it into a .mov file and uploaded it into YouTube.
I wish I could have thought of using PowerPoint earlier because getting done on time was the hardest part about producing my video. But at the end it turned out okay :)

PSA
The PSA Guide gave me a basic structure or a "blueprint" to base my PSA on. It is important for me to know what audience I'm targeting so that I could get my point across efficiently I'm still not clear what or how I want to do my PSA on.
Words Hurt
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kpsGRYbhBbM
Words Hurt was a PSA about cyber-bullying and how it affects a person. The PSA brings attention to t5yhe audience about the importance of avoiding cyber-bullying.
The Girl Effect
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WIvmE4_KMNw
The Girl Effect is shows how getting one girl out of poverty can start a chain reaction that can improve society by bringing improvement to the people in the society. The PSA was very simple and unique so they were able to get their point across.

My PSA:
- the key points I'll emphasis are how to use computers more efficiently
- visuals and audio will be "technology" based
- I'm going to use texts and background music instead of doing a video or a voice over to make things easier for me to edit
- It will show how knowing about your computer makes a difference
