What job(s) did you have in the making of your video?
I had the job of creating the story in the form of a storyboard, as well as the job of filming it. I took the filming job as well because I was too protective of my storyboard and needed to make sure it was filmed just right.
What was the hardest part of creating your video?
It was the hardest to film the scenes without filming anyones fingers. There are a few scenes where I accidentally caught fingers in the video, but didn't have the time to fix all of them.
What was the most enjoyable part?
The most enjoyable part was when we got to filming the funnier scenes. Most specifically, it was when we got to film the pencils knocking down a bunch of markers with paper clip baseball bats.

Career Cruising
Do you feel that you have learned about a fiels that might offer you a profitable future?
Yes, I encountered several interesting career choices that I might consider for the near future. However, not many of them are related to commtecg
Does this require you to go to college after high school?
Yes, all of the career choices I looked at required at least college. Some of them even askec for university
Out of a range from one to ten, what is the chance of you going in this direction
I think I would rate it a 5 because I don't really know if I am interested in going into commtech in the future

Starting a new app
What functions (2) have you found the same (that you already knew)? Explain
the functions that I already knew about were the free transform tool and the brush tool. They appear in photoshop, though the brush tool works slightly different, they are much the same.
Do you feel that using apps form the same group, Adobe, has increased your learning ability? Explain in three sentence
I feel that adobe has enhanced my learning ability because of how compatible they are. Learning one adobe prodcut opens the oppurtunity to learn about another one, because they share much of the same tools and keyboard shortcuts. I think it is nice that most of the programs we use are synchronized like that.

How Accurate is the weather forecast?
Is forecasting the weather a simple task or a very complex one?
Forecasting the weather is a complex task because of all the factors inolved. Some things simply can't be perfectly presicted, such as whether or not precipiation will fall. Not to mention, weather can be chaotic and the longer a forecast you make, the less predictable it will be.
How does the accuracy of a weather forecast today compare to the accuracy of 20 years ago? Look for a specific comparison.
The accuracy has improved significantly from 20 years ago. Now, a five day prediction is accurate as a two day prediction from 20 years ago. This is because of technological advancements allowing more accurate weather predictions. It is still difficult to predict weather long term though.

Our School Checkup
Were you prepared for the day?
I feel I was prepared as I could have been for the day. It wasn't really a big deal for me, after all they would just be watching the class. I hardly noticed them in the first place, and I really don't know why it sounded like such a big deal when everyone was talking about it. I also don't know how one can be prepared for something like that. It's similar to trying to prepare someone to eat something. If they don't like it, you still can't make someone ready to eat it, you just make the food easier to eat (like how the people watching would stay out of the way and not interrupt anything, making them hardly noticeable)
Do you feel the team was impressed?
I really don't know whether or not they were impressed. Since I hardly noticed them in the first place, I didn't really think on their reactions. I hope they are impressed, and I can't really think of a reason they would be severely unimpressed. If I had to guess, I'd say that they thought our school was pretty okay.

Family day
Family day has not been around for too long.
In Ontario, who created Family day and when was it started?
Family day was started in 2008, and was created in Ontario by Dalton McGuinty of the Liberal party.
Why was it started?
Dalton McGuinty started it as a promise. At election time, he promised to have it established if he was reelected (which he was)
My plans for Family day are:
My plans are to just relax around home. I don't think we will be doing much as a family.

3 cool things I learned to do with flash
One really cool thing I learned to do with Flash is making different scenes. I got to do much longer animations with seperate scenes. It's neat to see my animation acutally take the form of a story.
Another neat thing I learned to do with Flash is adding sound. I found it interesting, to add a song, and animate so it fits the song. Even though I had trouble timing everything, it was still fun.
One more thnig I learned in Flash was motion guide. It made certain scenes really easy to do, when the tween can follow a line the I draw. I only used it for one scene, but if I get to use flash again, I know that motion guide will be useful.

What I have learned so far in Flash
One of the most important things in flash that I learned about is tweening. I learned how you need to convert something into a movie clip symbol. I learned how to decide the amount of frames, and to make a keyframe. After that, it is very easy to just right click on the frames between #1 and the keyframe, and select 'motion tween'.
Another thng I learned to use in flash is the library. The library is extremely useful because it keeps track of all the symbols, and you can pull out multiple of the same symbol. This is mandatory for if you want to make more complicated animations.
A third thng I learned to do in flash is how to make a symbol animated. I used this in making the car move. I double click on the symbol, and withn the symbol, I can make frames. This allows me to have a wheel rotate, while tweening a vehicle along a road.
There are other things I learned, and other things I will learn soon about flash, but these are some of the most important.

Bizarro Experience
Earlier today, I was working on English. I have English first period. I was working on my grammar booklet, when suddenly I had a very runy nose! I wiped it off with my sleeve before it got worse, when I found out it was blood! It was coming out so fast I got several splatters on my booklet I got a big streak of blood on my sleeve (that's why my right sleeve is rolled up!). It also dripped all over my sweater and on the floor when I ran for the tissue box. For a good portion of the period I had to stuff a tissue up my nose, and at one point I even coughed up blood!
By the end of the period though, it was all over, and that's good because it was a very heavy nosebleed!
