Comedy Writing

Sense of humor is an important trait because it is important to make everybody happy all the time because you are happy. I believe that humor is contagious when somebody is happy everybody seems to be happy. Sense of humor isn't just being happy all of the time part of it is your just part of your personality. My sister thinks that if your all smiles and laughing all the time you either got a problem or your just slightly autistic, but honestly there is nothing wrong with that it's totally normal because isn't everybody like that unless your like completely EMO and have absolutely no emotion. ;)

Now I will give you 5 tips on how to write a humorous or funny narrative. Number one you always need to make your joke appropriate for your audience depending on if it's children or just adults. Number two you need to be funny. Number three you need to know your jokes and try not to stutter unless it's part of your joke. Number four you need to make eye contact and last but not least, Number five you need to make sure that even if you have a microphone on that the whole audience front to back can hear you clearly with no problem. 

My comedic monologue is about my sister,and how I hate it when she does my nails she does it either to chunky or to thin and it just smudges and washes right off. I think that my comedic monologue is funny because most girls can relate to me like seriously younger sibling painting your nails isn't very pretty they completely ruin the whole thing and paint everywhere but they still they do a pretty good job for their first time I guess :0 . Another reason why I think my monologue is funny is because at least everybody has had that moment where you forget like everything and you have to ask the person to repeat what they said over and over again it's actually pretty funny if your the person watching your friend forget what they were saying unless it's you then it's no longer funny.

Motivational Poster


The requirements for the motivational poster are to have your manifesto, your personal quotes, three symbolic images and a self portrait of your face. For design requirements you need to have both of your text layers kerned across the page so that there aren't any blank spots or and holes. You need to have 2 accent colors and 1 dominant color to make it look visually balanced. Lastly you would need to have blending options and adjustment layers on all of your 4 images.


 The first thing I did to make my motivational poster was I put the photo's in the photoshop document and then I started to write my motivational quotes and my manifesto then you start kerning. Kerning is adjusting the space between the letters to make it visually pleasing. For the kerning you have to make the text look like a blanket completely covering the page. Then you adjust the colors of the pictures to match your triadic color scheme. The colors that I picked were blue, yellow, and a red pink color. After that you have to pick the colors for your text layers to make it pop out and so you can see it better.


 My biggest challenge when we did this project was I didn't finish it I had the text layers to color then I would be done but I didn't have enough time to finish it so I had to turn it in as it was. Luckily Mr.Sanderl gave us some extra time to finish kerning the next day so I figured that it would be a good time to finish up the coloring of the text layers and for now I am still figuring out what color I should do it (it's so complicating but so much fun). Overall in my finished product looks pretty good to me. :)

Personal Manifesto


Some interesting about me are one I like to ride my motorcycle because it is amazing and I like to ride. Second of all I enjoy jumping off of the waterfall into the water.I also enjoy playing soccer because you have to be quick and fast in order to play. Lastly I like to draw I like to draw because I can put my thoughts on paper and let it flow free.


Live your life how you want to live it not how other people want you to live. Do what you love all day every day. If you don't like the things you do then don't do them. Life doesn't need to be this hard make it easier for yourself enjoy your life don't dread it. Make every moment count don't let anybody bring you down no matter what they say. Sometimes getting lost can help you find the things you need most in your life. Believing is the first secret success. Life is short be faithful and be happy smile every day. Never take no for an answer

I think that my manifesto relates to my readers because it is inspirational and motivational it also gives you confidence. Another reason why I think my manifesto relates to my readers is because I think that they can understand from where I'm coming from by the quotes that I chose saying that you should never let anybody bring you down and that is the biggest thing that I live up to because when I was still in elementary school I used to get teased because I hang out with the kids that hang back and we usually are the ones that are more quiet and keep to ourselves so the other "popular" kids would tease us because we had different personalities and we were considered different from everybody else. That's why I now can say never ever let anybody bring you down and always stand up for yourself no matter what.

Animation Outtakes



    In our new animation project we had to pick our own teammates and make an animation based on their life or life experiences. Our animation is Farmers support community. My teammates are Daileen, Michael, and Zephen. Some interesting facts are that Daileen is a farmer, Michael moved here from florida, and Zephen plays football and soccer. 

So stop motion animation is when for example someone is walking the person has to take a step and you take a picture then they take another step you also take a picture then you repeat the process until you have about maybe ten pictures then you can play it on the camera or put it in photoshop to animate it. After you have it all set up you can play your animation and it looks as if the person is just sliding across the screen. If you saw the bouncing ball int he beginning of this post that is a GIF. A GIF is when in this case the ball is bouncing across the screen you have to make it in photoshop so you separate the sky from the ground the you make a ball you would the have to make a new slide and move the ball slightly and you would repeat the process until the ball moves completely out of the screen or it can roll back down a hill.


 In our animation we are telling the story about how farmers like Daileen support the community and the process of growing and caring for the plants. I believe that people should take this into consideration because of the fact that there are many GMO crops. GMO stands for Genetically Modified Organisms these are when the plants are man made  and they make the foods look bigger but to be honest they natural ones aren't pumped with chemicals and they taste better so that's why you should care about the crops and for your own safety of eating the chemicals.

Our Animation story




    Recently we have been assigned a new project and we had to make an animation plus we also had to work with people that we never worked with before. My teammates are Daileen, Michael, and Zephen. Our story is on how farming supports the agriculture and the communities. For our animations we chose to do stop motion and animating in photoshop and stykz animation. In our animation Daileen is caring for the plants and getting ready to harvest after that she would take it to the market to sell with her family.

    Some lessons that the audience would learn is that " Hard work pays off ". This means that when for example when my team and it took time and effort to make our animation project . I believe that people will enjoy our little animation we had a lot of fun making it and of course it was totally worth it. In the animation we all took some footage and Daileen was the one who edited it and Michael made the animation  in stykz. Zephen and I made the white board animation of the kealia farm market.

    Some of the teams best moments were when we finally got some stop motion animation done that was a huge relief and to honest we took a lot of photos but some of it was we were playing around and having fun we actually put some of pictures that we were playing around in the animation it worked out well and we were the 2nd team to turn in our animation. Some of the worst moments as a team is when nobody could film for the whole week and we were freaking out until we took some last minute photos and well it worked out better than we thought. Some other amazing moments as a team are that we actually never had anything planned out until last minute and it worked out pretty well.

Double Exposed Portraits




Portrait photography is a picture of someones face and sometimes a background and the full body like when you take pictures with your family you would take family portraits for maybe christmas cards or special times when you family comes for dinner or a special occasion. It can relate to a profile view and silhouetting by a profile is like a picture of someones face but only seen on one side but it's still a picture of a face. Silhouetting is related because it is an image of an animal, person, or an object in a scene that represents a solid shape or singular color. All of it relates by a profile being a picture of someones side of their face, silhouetting being a picture of animals ,people , and sometimes objects but each of them mean a picture of a persons face.

Double exposures are created in photoshop by taking a couple pictures of textures and a profile of someones face and you use the dodge tool in photoshop to outline your face in white so you can make it into a multi exposure picture also so you can see texture in the background

HDR Photography




HDR Photography is a layer of multiple pictures and it makes the lights and darks come out and makes the picture more vibrant with bright lights and dark shadows. HDR stands for High Dynamic Range. What I like about HDR is that it makes the pictures I take stand out and it makes my pictures I take look more nicer. If I were to take a picture of a really dark picture HDR takes multiple and   makes the dark picture even out to look better than the original. What I dislike about it is that some times the picture doesn't turn out to be what I wanted and I can't control  what color I want to stand out unless I do it in photo shop.

You can create an HDR image by taking multiple pictures of the same thing and opening up Photoshop to layer them and then you can change the functions and settings to make it look unique and realistic. It is different from automatic because the automatic one you can't customize it unlike the step by step one you can create it to your own taste of colors and style.

What I was thinking for my pictures were I was wanting to make the sky look a brilliant blue and make the colors stand out so I wanted to make it unreal.
