In windows movie maker you can make your own little movie or video of whatever you want. You just need a camera to make the video or movie, if you have it record anything you want and then post it in your computer after just go to windows movie maker and edit your movie or video.

MSWMM when you are at the point to edit your photos theres alot of designs and effects to use. you can crop the video change stuff in it, you could put a title, change the way you want the video to start and end, change colours. theres alott you could do in this software. And remember just like Flash and other softwares you HAVE to use MSWMM when you are saving the file or else it wont show. And if you wanna send the file in email you have to make it smaller and save it in your USB key.

For people who use to use this in old times it used to be really hard because they would use the ways that are really slow and take forever to make. But now they have much much easier and faster ways to do stuff. Ex. say if u like pool game, you can actually make a pool game in here and it seems prettty cool and its really easy too.

TEST REVIEW

subtractive colours : cyan, magenta, & yellow.

primary colours : red, green, & blue (RGB.)

Organize. (photoshop will automatically add pictures into your organizer, if you have created it with photoshop.) Tag your images by clicking it, and going up to the options column and click on ''tag''. Tagging is a great way to organize your pictures. You can add things like captions, sound, etc. All the information is in the picture, like what camera was used to take the picture, what time it was taken at etc. If you want to make a calendar, you can drop the pictures into the calendar. You can insert pictures into your calendar, on the date you took the picture or you made it. This is a user friendly feature. This calendar feature isn't on every photoshop. Hint: study the ''create'' things. He might ask you how to create a photo book= You select the pictures you want, go to create, photo book. Its a nice way to make a page. Slide show= select the pictures you want, go to create and select slide show. When you make a slide show, you can put it onto a DVD, and watch it on your computer. You can fit slides to audio. You can have slides match the mp3, so it fills the whole space. You can email the slide show, and change the size of it. You should know: What resolution should a picture be when your printing it? 300 DPI What are the two main sizes a picture should be. 8x10 and 5x7, and 4x6 resolution for monitor= 72DPI The different tools. - You can use the navigator instead of the zoom tool. If you want to add a complimentary colour to your picture, you can use the eye dropper, and it will sample colour from an image . Markee tool- selects an area. If you want to get rid of the markee tool, you have to click CTRL+D. First thing you do for trouble shooting your problem(if your tools aren't working) : 1) go to layers. you might be on the wrong layer 2) remove a selection. [there is a good chance that there might be a small selection on your page, so check for any selections. so press CTRL+D, to make sure. 3) they are on the wrong mode. (but you don't need to worry about this step) Lasso tool: tries to automatically highlight the closest thing you wanted to choose. a selection tool magic wand: selecting colors= when you use the magic wand, tolerance- how close the pixels are together. contiguous- will select the pixels that are touching the pixel you chose. You can use the magic brushes to extract people, or anything from a picture. You have mask tool: its a selection for wanting to do something weird. Gives you a mask, so you can make changes. It will mask an area out. [don't need to know because Mr.Case doesn't use it.] Crop tool: you can choose the length, height, resolution. Cookie cutter tool: you chose a shape and it make a selection for you. [Mr.Case doesn't use it.] Its a way of making selections in fancy shapes. Like hearts, etc. Straightening an image(it makes your image straight): you have to make a duplicate layer, like you always have to do. (Mr.Case doesn't use it) Red eye: desaturates the red in someones colour. It extracts the red. Changes the red level to zero. Spot healing: If there is a blemish in a picture, tap on a n area, it takes the information from the surrounding pixels to make the blemished spot go away. Its similar to the clone tool. Blur: opposite = sharpen dodge: brighter. burn: darker. Trick is to apply it to a realistic place. Used for making shadows. [you don't really need to know] Make sure you know your hexadecimals: (goes up by 16's) 256= 100 16- 10 17= 11 32= 20 There will be three questions on the test about hexadecimals! a0 = 160 a1= 161 a00= 2560 Additive and subtractive colours. Primary colours when dealing with light: RGB Primary colours when dealing with ink: Cyan, magenta, yellow Opposite of RGB is cyan, magenta, and yellow. And the middle is white. when you add everything together CMYK. k=black Additive for monitors. when you add colours you get bright colours Subtractive for printers. when you add colours you get darker colours ff is the highest value. If you have ff under R, you'll have red.

My webpage

well i want to do a webpage about lil wayne the rapper whos soo cute and amazing but mr.case says if i do imma get in too much trouble because its copyright and that pissed me off alot, i really wanna do it about him and imma do my best to find a website about him that doesnt have a copyright or just take permission from them but if i didnt i dont think i will do anythink i think!!

Web pages

Today in class mr.case was teaching us how to make our own webpages he taught us alot of new cool features well for me they were cool and interesting. Adobe Dreamwaver is a great place to make a webpage for yourself you c ould other sites but to be honest i think Adobe dreamwaver is the best program you could find. i think that besides Adobe Dreamwaver to make pictures or to use cool stuff to post on your webpage photoshop is the best place you could go to its really easy and the cool thing is you could do anything you want in there and it wont be called as playderizim. Mr.case showed us how to go on google and actually change the homepage and put anyhting you want in there for yourself say you dont want the Google name on your homepage at your computer you could go to Adobe Dreamwaver and change it to whatever you like ex.your name.

Photoshop 5.0

mr.case taught us how to use the new photoshop its still the same as 1 but it just has a little more new tools that he thinks we really dont need that much...meaning its extra.the tools are very similar except it has some new ones like:
  • Cookie cutter
  • Spot healing brush tool

These are the only ones that are new.

Image

we are supposed to make a picture for mr.case to prove to him that we know how to use photoshop...and we are not supposed to make a grade 1 or 5 picture it has to be totally a grade 9 picture you know..like if someone sees it they would actually say that yes that was made by a grade 9 student. Everyone worked really hard to make a picture i really didnt know what to do i was so confused but i thought about it and finally i made a picture of earth. For me i think its not like grade 9 picture fully but i think i did good enough.


Bert Monroy

Bert monroy is a real great photoshop artist....atleast thats what i think. All his images from photoshop are great he has the best pictures and the way he creates them is amazing. It takes alot of time but he still does it with all his effort. it seems like he has alot of patience he never gives up because even if it takes a year he still finishes his work no matter what it takes. He has alot of confidence with his work but thats good because from what i think hes the best photoshop artist. I learned that you dont have to be good at art just to us photoshop or any other documents you just need to work with math and geometry thats all it takes. And by the way Bert monroy makes mr.cases bricks look soooo bad!!

MIcrosoft word

today in Btt class i wrote 10 things i didnt know about microsoft word and im sure i dont know more than 10, i learned and used stuff i never got to use in my life before i learned alot of new tools ofcourse at first it was so confusing to understand but it became easier when i tried it over and over again.

Microsoft word

10 things I didn’t know about Microsoft word are:

1. File--permission (unrestricted Access) - helps prevent sensitive documents and emails from being forwarded.

2. File--versions- gives you an option between saving your work in a new version or an old version.

3. Edit--replace- helps your work replace where you want it to be.

4. View--task pane- where you search for work.

5. View--document map- helps document your work.

6. View--header and footer- you use this to write a headline of a paragraph and an ending.

7. Insert--Field- short formulas.

8. Tools--Speech- record a speech.

9. Tools--Macro- helps record something.

10. View--Markup- writes a comment.

leagl rights

today in BTT class i learned about legal copyrights. stuff i learned today really pissed me off because i learne dthat if you do a project in colleges or universities and you hand them in it doesnt belong to you anymore it belongs to the school, you dont have the rights to keep it but you have the rights to call it your own or post it somehwere. no matter how good bad you did it after you handed it you cant get it back because its not your property anymore but still you have a lil rights to it, you can call it your own or if you wanna post it or publish it somwhere you can.

legal rights

today in BTT class i learned about legal copy rights. i learned alot and what i heared ws interresting stuff at first it was kinda boring but then later on it started to make sense i mean i started to think that i should know all this stuff because its actually gonna help me i mean if i do something thats illegal and i dont know it was it could have been my fault because all this time in school i wasnt paying attention but if i listen in class now and learn everything then later on in the future i am 100% sure i wont do anything thats illegal. learning about playdarisem is really interesting it teaches you about hoe to be careful when your downloading or when your doing your project you have to be real careful. if you copy something of the internet and you dont put it in your own words your going to get in soo much trouble you can actually get sewed and plus get suspended from school for copying someone elses work its tough stuff but you have to follow it.

Work ethic

the industrial revolution was made by the set of personal values that came to be known as the " work ethic."


Thomas Edison says "is one percent inspiration and ninety-nine percent perspiration." basically what hes trying to say is that if you work hard you can achieve anything you want,you could get anything in the world you want all you need to do is study and work really hard to get there. so if he have eveyone by your side telling you to study and do good in school listen and you might be thanking them later.


Some of the work ethic variants:


  • Protestant work ethic

  • American work ethic

  • Asian work ethic

These are only some of the variants in ethics but theres more. The only reason these stuff were made was because of kids thats why nowadays you see teachers in schools making sure kids do really good and want them to pass everything.


hard work seemed to be important more than ever when information age(the period beginning around 1970) started replacing the industrial age(the period beginnig around 1980).
