The Process: The process to make and design my house was long and hard for me. It took me a while to catch on to how I was supposed to work some of the tools. First I picked out what kind of house I wanted to make then I started to design the layout and finally, through a long process of hard work got my house done. What I learned: W hat I learned while doing this house is that designing in Sketchup takes a lot of hard work and concentration. I also learned how to successfully design a house... may not be the best but I think it turned out pretty good for my first time designing one.  Conclusion: In conclusion, I learned a lot designing this house and I enjoyed getting to do this project! It taught me a lot about being dedicated to your work and sticking with something even though its hard.

Process: This was a long process for me. I had a hard time figuring out how to make all the words come in and animated. first I picked out the font and colors for each word. Then I had to add animations to each word like making the words rotate or float in. What I learned:  What I learned from this project was how to animate using the video frame setting in Photoshop. I also learned that animating is lots of work and can be hard and frustrating sometimes... especially for me! I'm a perfectionist so for me I have to get everything to look good and if one thing looks messed up I redo it over and over again. Conclusion: In conclusion, I learned a lot from this project. I learned that animating is hard work. I also learned how to animate in photoshop by adding animations to words.

The Process:   The  process for this project was kind of difficult for me. It took me a while to catch on to how we were supposed to do everything. I honestly was kind of confused on how to do some of the stuff on photo shop, but it was probably because I was behind and didn't really understand , but once I caught on to how to do it, it wasn't so hard anymore.  What I learned: What I learned from this project was how to make and animation look like its bouncing. I also learned how to do different bounces. Conclusion: Overall I learned a lot about how to animate using photoshop and even though its not perfect, I have to give myself credit for how it turned out because this was my first time doing it and it turned out pretty good. :)         

The Process:   For this project I got to use my own idea to make a bounce animation. I used the things that Mr. Netterville taught us to do my project. I changed my idea for my animation a couple of times, it can be hard to decide on one thing and stick with it. My Animation: In my animation I have a bunch of little snowflakes spread out and a red ball that bounces around on the different snowflakes. The ball bounces for a bit and then I had it shoot off into the sky and disappear. I picked something winter related because it feels like winter outside and it reminded me of Christmas/Christmas weather. Conclusion: In conclusion, I liked getting to put my own idea into an animation form. It was cool to see what we could put together on our own. I got to learn some new skills and overall liked the way mine turned out.      

The Process:   This process was kind of hard for me. First we started by practicing some tutorials on Sketchup. Then we watched a video on how to make the chairs and we tried it ourselves. I finally figured out how to make the chairs and this is how they turned out:   What I learned: What I learned while doing these chairs is I learned how to use different tools in Sketchup, and I learned how to have some patience while doing the chairs because it was hard for me to figure out how to use some of the tools. Conclusion: In conclusion, I learned a lot of new things like how to work Sketchup and use different tools in Sketchup. I am overall proud of how these chairs turned out.

                                             The Process:   Coming up with a logo was a long, hard process. It took a lot of sketching to finally come up with something that I liked. First we started by sketching some designs. Then in Adobe Illustrator we started making black and white versions of our sketches. Then we started adding colors and seeing what colors we liked. I tried a lot of color combos before making a final decision. The three logos with color below are the logos I narrowed my decision down to.         Final Decisions: I decided to choose the logo with the Blue background and pinkish/ reddish flower. I chose this one because the colors are bright and cheerful. I wanted the fonts to be nice and neat. I think the fonts I chose are perfect for the logo. They give a sense of neatness. I tried to  stay away from the comic sans or cursive fonts because  comic sans has to be used in the right way and I didn't want to use cursive because cursive fonts aren&
