e9 Quarter 2 reflection 
                
 I have learned that i graphic design I like to mess around with all of the different art tools and I can make some really cool looking designs using the tools. I have also learned that I am very artistic and like to make my work look perfect. 
                
                I definentaly need improvement with the pen tool I never really used the pen tool because I did not know how to use that. but if I do graphic design next year I will defiantly use the pen tool more than this year.

               What I loved most about this quarter is the cool designs and learning about the different graphic design logos that are surrounding us in our everyday life and what they mean.

               what I would change differently is more communication with others I am just really quiet so I think that I should just talk to people more and answer some questions or raise my hand.

                I have learned about adobe illustrator and adobe dream weaver these seam pretty basic answers but I really did learn allot bout these two things and hope to do them next year.
   
              one of my goals is to make my work better than this year or add change to them because I feel like I can make them better and do more with the logos that I have made.
          
Final-web Design 
                        
                     To make a website in adobe dream weaver you first have to have the documents that you want in your site to be in a file together. A example of this would be that I have a headshot.jpeg file in the same folder as my home.html. All of these files will make sense if you have ever used dreamweaver. the Final process is to import every thing that you want to be in your website. After that then what islet is just making your site look the way you want it to. 

                      For me the dreamweaver process took along time. I thought that it was really complicated to do some of the things to make a site. but if you have a really good teacher that knows how to help you the process goes by really quickly. I personally used my time to the best of my ability. I stayed on task as much as I could before getting distracted, I think that this helped me the most.
                      Challenges that i faced was the computer. for some reason my computer would not connect to the server so that was a big complication. I thought that I found a way around that but without the server I cannot import a video. the other part of the challenge was that i could not go to youtube and import the videos I made on there. This is probably what set me behind like a entire day or I would be finished.
                     
                       I learned that while using dreamweaver you have to make your time and go slow. Otherwise you might have to restart the videos like I did. And also that making web site is a lot harder than it looks.
                      
                      I thought that the web design is fun and that it was a good learning experience but I liked graphic design allot more than web design. And I also thought that without experience web design can be the hardest subject in school, other than the things listed I have had a fun quarter.
            
                      I did not get my website compleated

presentation blogg

                     In our Class we learned about how to put together a good presentation. some important things to a good presentation is The importance of professional appearance, facial expression, loud voice, eye-contact and posture. You obviously want to be wearing your good cloths and not the shirt from Walmart  Two important parts of a presentation is facial expression and loud voice. these are some obvious things but allot of people won't do these simple steps. The last two things are eye-contact and posture. Don't slouch around and make good eye contact are simple but hard to remember.

                      we watched 3 Ted presentations of Bill Gates, Bjorn Lomberg, and Jamie Oliver. our job as the class was to be the judge. Our job as the judge was to decide who had the best presentation skills,The importance of professional appearance, facial expression, loud voice, eye-contact and posture. I though that people like bill gates would be almost as a perfect person and would not have any flaws. But bill gates didn't really have a new smile and wasn't dressed as well as the other people 

                    when i was in front of the class I noticed some things about how I would move allot and didn't use that much gestures so i could work on doing some better gestures. other than speaking I think that i did good for coming up with a mini presentation on the spot.

illustrator logo 

                       on this project we first had to create a sketch of 3 different logos once we made the different logos we then had to choose the one we liked the most. Once we got the logo we like the most we made that logo on a new piece of paper. The logo had to fill the entire screen, and have a explanation on why we chose that logo. I chose my logo because of colors that it had, my logo had green and gold so I thought that looked cool. My logo also had a hidden message in it, if you turn my logo on its side than you see a letter N for Nathan. I thought that the hidden message was something that allot of other people would not have in their logo.
