Marking Period 3:
21abc:
In this project we did 3 different things. 21 a was easy because we had to draw the shape in label it basic shapes. 21 b we had to copy the same object and make it 3D by using a push and pull. And for the last one we had to use the shape and pencil tool to write in the letters and then make the letters appear 3D. 
*********************************************************************************
22: Shape One:
In this project we had to replicate the shape number one and the we had to fill the shape with one color for each side. For example the front view had to be red and the back had to be blue. We had to use exact measurement so the shape was 100% accurate with the board. This was hard at first but got easier.

Quiz:
  I had to use the arc tool and use push and pull in order to get this object. I had to use the circle and square tool as well.

Ginger Bread House:
23:Ginger Bread House Original:
In this Project we had to look at ginger bread house and try to copy it and add some of our own ideas. I used the rectangle, pencil, circle tool to make the outline of the house. After that i used the push and pull to make a 3D. After that i add little designs such as the windows,door, candy cane, cookie and the chimney. I color them red white and green in the spirit of Christmas. This was a very full project to fun to do.
*********************************************************************************
24: 3D ART
 this project was very confused but my friend helped me. What i did was chose the background and positioned the ginger bread house as it was in the card added an effect. I duplicated the ginger bread house slide and unchecked the boxes in channel. I unchecked G and B in the duplicated slide and unchecked R in the original layer and I got this 3D effect.
*********************************************************************************
25: Glowing Button
 This project it took longer then expected. We first had to use the ellipse tool to make the outline of the button. After that we had to add specific effects to make the button black. We then  duplicated the button and used free transform to make a smaller circle which would be the white inside. Then add effects to the inside and then add many more effects to make the inside with lots of aluminum circles. after that we added the power symbol we put the green effects to make it glow. finally we did the animation to make it repeatedly glow and saved it as a GIF file as shown above. 
*********************************************************************************
26: Show case           
                                                                                                                     
This assignment was very hard at first but my friend helped me with the beginning in return i helped him with the last part. He helped me make the light which i was struggling with. After that i had to use the ellipse tool to in order make the light appear real. we set the opacity to 10%  and direct the light to your picture. After that we just make a background white and blend it into the show case.
*********************************************************************************
27: MCSM Brochure

In this project we made a School Brochure of our schedule and wrote a small summary of it. I got pictures of the text books and other things that relate to the class and then pasted them in the brochure. After that i would write in the time and teacher for that class. This Project was very easy and simple.
*********************************************************************************

Semester Summary 

When I first came to this class it was in 5th period. I loved that period because i finally received a class with one of my good friends. But sadly after a week or two i got transferred out that class. It was a sad day but it was worth it because all my friends here are amazing and helped me with the projects. I learned how to use Photoshop for the first  in my life. I didn't know a thing about it. But after doing several projects i got use to it. For example plastic text, filters, picture text and etc. In Illustrator i learned how to make a real looking flash drive. I also made a living room with only using like 5 colors. It came out amazing but the cactus came out looking bad. I learned a lot from Google sketch. And this is the future software i will use if i want to be an architect. I learned how to make shapes with weird ends. I also made a gingerbread house which was totally cool. It would have got 1st place. Overall this class taught me what i never knew was possible.

17: Quick Mask
In this we looked for picture of yellow teeth. We first turned on the quick mask blur mode button. Then we used the brush tool and adjusted the diameter of the brush. Then, we painted over areas we wanted to select. Then we inverse it, and then we had to switch the foreground colors to paint over any mistakes. Then we turned the quick mask mode off, and clicked inverse again. The result is above.

After that we had to add the text box add our name into the flash drive. 
************************************************************************
20: Phone
This huge project was very difficult and long. We first had to open up a rectangle with the size of 147 440 and then you have to put round edges to make the cover appear circular . After that we have to offset path -4 pixels. Then we set the gradient color to a specific color so the phone looks realistic. After we have to offset path again then put the gradient colors again. We have to repeat these steps one more time and after that we have to create rectangle 128 by 110 and position it by the screen of the phone. We then have to offset the screen and set the gradient grey to black , after that we make a small rectangle of 101 by 43 for the screen that displays your name. then set that to round corners. We basically had to play around with the gradient colors and then make the buttons by make small rectangles and applying effects to them. For the symbols we use wingding to do the the different kind of shapes. At last we made the mic and speaker by making a small circle and applying effects to make them look realistic. Overall I am proud of my cordless phone.
************************************************************************
Extra Credit:
In this project we had to only 5 different colors. We had to use the bugle and the vertical and horizontal warp. We had to put in specific number of bend and and the vertical warp. Each object made was made by a rectangle and then we warped it into the object shape like the vase and chair. The flower, cactus and the table was one of the object that used an oval  and we also had to warp that too.
