Cracking the Code

I think that everyone should learn how to code no matter what they plan on doing or what job they have. Why? Because what if your job started using technology, you would be one step ahead. Also its just good to know how to code. What if you wanted to make your own website, you would know how to create and personalize it. Code will pop up eventually in your life so it would probably be a good idea to start learning, if already known train. Everyone should learn how to code!

The first time I ever used code was when I was in 5th grade in Kilauea Elementary.  I have to say it is confusing at first but it helps if you are patient. I definitely had a hard time figuring out  which direction was which and how much to turn. It wasn't just me that was confused everyone in my class was confused at the time.  But once you get used to it it gets addicting and you just want to keep learning about it. That's what happened to me!  This was probably one of the most fun computer classes that I ever had in Kilauea School!

If I could design a program or game it would be a surfing game. The game would be called surf how you like. The game would work with three different controls, up down, right left and tricks. In this game you could customize your character and their surfboard. You could also pick a different surf spot when you complete  each level. To complete a level you would have to complete new tricks.

During this project I have learned about several different tools or strategies. One of them were imovie. Imovie is how you can put clips together to make a movie. Also I learned how to work two different kinds of cameras which can both be used for taking pictures and videos.  This project taught me how to do a laughing GIF which is 5 photos of yourself and maybe another person laughing in a sequence. The order of the sequence was serious face, then smiling a little, suprised face like you got the joke, laughing, and lastly going crazy laughing. Another great tequnique that I learned from this project was videoing skills like where to set up, how to put it down and how to Learn the functions within it.

Pad was definitely a big part of filming this project. What is pad? Pad is like a one second long extension to the beginning and end of our videos. Pad helps with the problem of the last or the first word being cut off. It's good to prevent this because that word could make your whole sentence make sense or it could be the last inspiring word! Pad was also one of the most important things that was taught during the video insrtuctions so you automatically know its important.

I think one weakness of mine would be using the camera and all of the buttons on the camera. I dont know why but for some reason that was confusing for me. I think i could improve this by really resaerching and studying the different cameras that I used.I also had trouble editing the movie once it was all imported into my computer. Even though editing was one of the most fun things in this project it was a little challenging. I think I could improve this by maybe adding different affects,  Maybe they wouldn't be as hard to work with
