I'm really sorry guys but I'm still running a fever and coughing hysterically. Rather than bring this in and share it with all of you I am staying at home again today. Good morning everyone.

Periods 3 & 4
Today you we will finally take the rasters vs. vectors quiz. You'll find in on Schoology. You also have 10 photos due. This weeks subject was a different perspective. They should be new photos that you take each week. My hope is that the more we discuss taking photos, editing and composing shots, you continue to fine tune your craft to get better and better. Make sure that you turn in the 10 photos on Schoology and make a print the proof sheet. Next weeks photos should be textures. Take a look at the video in which I discuss what I would like yo to do for these photos. It should be the easiest photos that I have assigned yet! That is all for today. I know that some of you have make up work to do so I won't be assigning anything new in hopes that you use this time to proof and catchup after you take the quiz. We will be moving on to a new unit on Monday so use this time wisely!

Period 5
I'm really sorry guys but I'm still running a fever and coughing hysterically. Rather than bring this in and share it with all of you I am staying at home again today. Again though, you can move forward without me since I have everything on the site. Unfortunately we will have to postpoen making the pin. Instead we will start the next project a day earlier. There are a lot of resources for you to check out before you just jump righ tinto the notpead project. First you will find a link with examples of past students notepads. The next link is for the syllabus, rubric and an explaination of the type of image you will need to create for this project to work out. Finally there is a video and set of example thumbnails that I have made. Please watch and check out all of these resources. Once you have, and you understand the ins and outs of the project, then you can begin to draw your own set of thumbnails on paper. These should not be done on the computer! Brainstorm as I did in the thumbnails video and then then sketch your thumbnails. We will move on past this on Monday. Have a great weekend!
