Great book covers

I like these two covers because they both cover my favorite superheroes.  I am a bit biased becayse i know why the covers are the way they are.  I like the batman one because it shows great foreshadowing. 

Horrible book covers

Theses book covers both cover animals but the absurd features and the exadgerated expressions make me want to actuall yjudge the books by their covers.  I can't see why anyone would put these book covers and expect people not to make fun of them.  The second one relates to its title by actually showing the artists portrayal of what a zombie racoon and killer bunny would look like.  The first one however, out of context, seems completely random because the title doesn't relate to the art at all.

Reflections

In this class, my greatest accomplishment was probably finding out how to use Photoshop.  It is simpler than I expected it to be.   I feel that if I have the time, I will probably be using Photoshop more and more.

My greatest challenge was probably Dreamweaver.  Out of the three it was the most difficult.  It wasn't bad but finding the time to do all these different things was difficult.  I did like the pay off though, creating something for yourself and calling it your own was a nice feeling.

Video Project

My video project is about campus etiquette. 

Some props I will use are cameras, pencils, maybe a cell phone, and possibly some other props that most college and/or high school students would have.

I will work with Sierra and Teresa on this project.

Website Thoughts

Recently I created a website and showed it to the class.  I learned that making a website takes work and creativity.  With dreamweaver the difficult factor lowers a bit but it still takes some knowledge to know how to work the program.
If I knew how to easily code social network (the movie) style then creating websites and programing is actually more fun.
When I had Photoshopped those two gifs, I felt thoroughly content with myself.  I think creating websites might be pretty cool if I can get more advanced.
If I could, i would go back and clean it up, maybe find wallpapers that fit the background without repeating.
