DIgItal STorY rEfLeCtION :)

 This assignment was to create our own movie giving us a chance to tell our story and to let our voices be heard. what we was told to do was make a movie, it don't  have to be a sertion topic it could be something we experience, seen happening in this world anything we want. The rules of this assignment was that the movie has to be a minute long no less and it has to be a story line. We had to include pictures and if we wanted to we could pick a song to blend in the story or to pick up the extra time that was left in the movie.

  My digital story is about my family and friends and how they are the most important thing in the world to me. It about my sisters, my mom and best friend Synques. Its what i know best about and how i wouldn't trade them for anything. The message my movie send is never take nothing for granted because you never know what you have until its gone. The images I use to create my movie is my family and my best friend.  I use these because my movie values how important they are and no matter what you will always need family and friends in your life.

I choose this story because to me their the best thing in my life and I don't know what i would do with out them. They are what motvoites me and helps me get through anything no matter what. I want to show my appreciation to them and show other people what amazing family that i have thats been here for me my whole life and be supporting me. Even though we all have our ruff days i know that being family will never  change. This is so significant because its my family and I wanna show everyone that nobody's family perfect. Also there's so special bond like family and friends.

  Looking at the rubric, I think I did ok it wasn't my best but over all I did the best that I could in that period of time. I loved i move and the different experience we had with it. For example the sound effects, pictures and music we could include in our movie. It was difficult at first because i was getting use to using it but after a couple days it was less difficult. I really enjoyed my year in digital media class this year it was a great learning process and i experience way more things then i though i would. This be a great trip and some my experience I learn here  I could use in the real world expecially in college:)

What we was told to do was pick any song we like, take any part of the lyrics and get three pictures to put them in one. First step was to pick the lyrics and then pick four parts of the lyrics to go into the four panles. Second thing we had to do was pick three pictures for each triptych and put in them into one whole picture.  Also we had to resize the pictures and play around with them so that it fits and makes it look like its one whole picture. The thing was that it had to go with the lyrics and we could make it blend in or fade with the backround.

  Vissually my triptych is a typical love story. The song I chosse was one in a life time by monica. The first tyriptych is a girl looking out her window who is hurt  and think about him because her and her boyfriend had just got into a dissagreement. So she remebering the times they shared over the locket her had gave her. The other panel is of both of them on a beautiful day kissing with a tree turing into a heart blending in. Last is the couple holding hands walking on the beach as the sun is setting with a somking heart in the sky.

   My lyrics was about two people who where madly in love and just had some dissagreements. So i reflected on two people who where mad at each other. The mood was emotional, happy, sad, angery, and heartbroken. So i just focus on a couple and how i see girlfriends and boyfriends in the real world. For example, the both dissagree on something and didnt talk to each other for a while but in end relize that u only get love in a life time. Also that no matter how much u argue u willl alwayzs love other and never take youre love for granted cause u never know what u have until its gone.


    The experience in working with adobe photo shop this year was great. I experienec different things with comupter that i thought i would. For example putting two pictures in one. I was very sucessfull in the creation of the project from the last one I created. One thing i feel i could of did better on was play with pictures more and also focus on the lyrics. I dont think i would do anything differentlyand that i have over come a lot from my other project and i had put my best effort forward in this work.
