Thunderduckian Mockumentary


Thunderduckian Mockumentary



My team mates are Virginia and Caitlin. Our mockumentary is about life of a thunderduckian. There are two species which are thunderduckian studious and thunderduckian turnt. I think that it went a lot easier when recording. We had more time overall to record what was necessary; however we did have some technical issues so we were not able to have the video in slow motion but overall the experience was better.

Our IMED Video




IMED VIDEO

My group members are Caitlin Daniels, Virginia Foote, and myself, Esther Ramirez. Our video is about learning to form a triad. In the video we demonstrated 3 steps since it is consisted of 3 notes. The easiest part about this video is the actual recording since we had an actual layout. We actually had several set backs because we used different mediums to record and they did not match up all the time.  I think that we needed more time in a day to record everything we needed. 

Here is the Link for our video!

Creating my website

Creating my website

As I was creating my website, I found it kind of difficult to find certain colors that would match with each other. I really like the fact that you can be very creative and specific. I actually enjoyed doing this because I was able to see the process of how websites are made and it gave me an idea of how things work.

At first, I drew my outline of how I wanted my website to look like and the information I wanted on there. I kind of morphed it as I was working on it because I saw that some colors or patterns did not match with my vision.

My view on Sight Video

My View on the Sight Video


I believe that this is actually possible in the future. I think that there are no limitations as to what humans can do. About 20 years ago, no on ever knew that an i phone 6 would be coming out or even Google would even exist. To the direction we are headed I strongly believe that it is possible for that video to come to life. That does scare me though because there will not be as much human interaction and it could possibly lead to bad things that humans were not meant to do. If teens are getting addicted to TV, texting or even the internet, how are they suppose to handle even more modern technology in the future?

Best Practices for web design

Flat Design

Something that I noticed about great web designs is that they are very clean and easy to read. With the flat design, everything is really easy to see and follow. It also provides a clean edge to the visual of the web design. Facebook, Netflix, and Khol's had this feature.

Navigation

Who doesn't have a smart phone these days?A feature that most great web designs have is that they are all able to scroll easily not only in their website through a computer screen but also, to fit to a mobile device. Some websites do not have this feature so when using the internet on your phone, it looks different.

Less Text

Easy, and cut to the chase. The less words the better because not only is it easier, but people tend to remember pictures more than words. I know that s,art phone icons only use pictures because it is easier to locate.

Motion Graphics

When there is a moving graphic, it grabs more attention and professionalism to the web site. It is also good to make sure to have the graphic in an organized fashion; not just in a random location.

Color

My top 3 favorite web sites

Khol's
Apart from the great clothes I get there, I like going to their website because it is really nice and simple. I can easily navigate through their web page and it helps me sort my options when I am looking for something specific. Their background is white, with their actual boxes of information, or icons are bright colored.

 Khol's


Netflix

The website looks really professional and clean. Their colors are red and black, but the images look really sharp. It is also easy to navigate with their tabs at the top. I also like how I am able to move my cursor to the right and without clicking anything, it allows me to see my options.

Netflix 

 
Facebook
I like this website not just because it is social media, but everything is really easy to access. I am a very simple person and the colors are plain white and blue so there isn't a bunch of stuff going around the page.

Facebook 



Gates n fences

This websites is just horrible. Too many colors going around. It is not clean and unprofessional.
