During this quarter of video I learned how to use Final Cut Pro and all the short cut keys that make is easier to use. Like command B is the blade tool and command I is import and command E is export. I also learned what the six shot system was and how to frame all of the six shots. The hardest ones to frame are the close up, extra closeup, and the over the shoulder shot. I also learned how to work in a group and spread the work out evenly so that everyone has a fair amount of work so that everyone did a part so that the video got done by the due date. In the future I can use my group working skills in whatever strand I choose to go in because no matter what I do I will always have to work with people, and communicate my ideas and what I am envisioning in my head so that the people I am taking to can see what I am seeing.
In illustrator we made orthogonal cubes. We watched a tutorial on Lynda.com to figure out how to make all of the sides equal. We had to copy and paste the three main lines and copied them several times to finish off the cube. Then we added color to the cube to give it depth/perception. The darker colors make it look farther behind and the lighter shades make it come forward. Then i rounded the edges of the cube so that way it did not have weird tails that lost the flow of the eye making it look 3D. This was a challenge for me because there was so many steps to do to make it look accurate. However the end result was with it, because it looked really awesome and it's cool to say that I made this from scratch.
