House

House

Overview

During this project, we were given the task of recreating a real house by using Sketchup. We had done a few minor projects already using this software, so we knew the basics, but we still had to figure out how to do a lot of new techniques. Once we had picked out our house, we began our project.

How We Did It




Once we had chosen our house that we were going to recreate, we started by making a box with the specific dimensions of our house. We then created our roof, and added other aspects to our houses, such as windows, doors, and porches. Once we had the basic shape of our house done, we began to add textures and colors to our house to make it look how it would in real life. We were also required to find two of our own textures online that we would include in our house. After we had done all of this, we added some finishing touches, and then created the animation for our house. This was basically a visual tour, and showed the different viewpoints of our house. After we created our animation, we were done with our project.

Conclusion

As a whole, I would say this project was very successful. Obviously it was our first major creation in Sketchup, so it wasn't going to be perfect. There were a few aspects that I might have tweaked if we were to do it again, because there were parts that weren't completely accurate. However, as a whole, I am very pleased with my end product in this project, and I feel proud of what I have made.

My Personality Type

ISTJ My personality type is ISTJ. This means I am introverted, sensing, thinking, and judging. People who are classified as an ISTJ are typically very analytical, reliable, and detail-oriented. They tend to value logical reasoning rather than emotional. They tend to prefer to be alone at times, and keep their thoughts to themselves. These people like to use processes that are proven to work, and also like to rely on their past experiences. Some famous people who share this personality type are George Washington, Queen Elizabeth II, and George H.W. Bush. As a whole, I believe this description of me is almost spot on. I think the quiz is definitely correct when it says I am introverted, and prefer to look at logic when reasoning. I believe I am definitely dependable and detail-oriented, but I think I also have some qualities of perceiving, to go along with judging. For example, I always try to not over schedule things, and I work pretty well under pressure. As a whole, I though t...

Typography Project

Typography Overview In this project, we were approached with the task of creating a project to show different terms of typography by using Adobe Illustrator. Before we started, we were given some basic knowledge about typography. This included different fonts, and parts of letters. We were then able to use some of our prior knowledge about Adobe Illustrator to create a name line to show our newfound knowledge. This project once again I believe was a very good stepping stone in my knowledge and I think it will be very useful in the future. What I learned For this project, we started off by writing our names and sizing it appropriately, and then making three lines to represent the general height of different parts of the letters. We then labeled different parts of our name with words and arrows. Once again, the command "Option-Drag" was very useful, as it helped us copy and paste our labels easily. After we had labeled at least ten parts of our name, we tweaked the l...

ONW Now Sophomore Edition

This was definitely the hardest project we've done this year. Not only was the time schedule very hard to meet, but there was also just a lot of things that had to be done. I definitely learned a lot about all the work that goes in to making a good news show. I learned how much goes on behind the scenes, such as what is done in the control room and with the camera and teleprompter. Personally, I really enjoyed working in the control room for this project. It was definitely a lot of pressure to work completely on the go. I had a huge part in the live recording of the show, which was definitely stressful, but I still enjoyed it. After doing this project, I would say the most important aspect of a successful news show is organization. It is extremely important for everybody to know exactly what their job is so they can execute perfectly. It is also very important to have good communication among your crew. For example, we didn't do a great job at communicating with our anchors...
