Last Post of the School Year, Shark Tank Thing.


Hi!  I haven't posted in quite awhile, mainly because there was nothing to post about. but for our E9 final, we had to work in a group to create a fake product for a fake shark tank show. Then after the project we were told to answer these questions in a blog:


  1. Write about your 4th Quarter Group Product and Presentation, website, graphic design, video and animation that you made.

    1. What was the project? 

      We decided to work on a patch that made you work out while you sleep, dubbed the Mini Coach.

    2. How long did it take? 

      All of 4th quarter

    3. What were some challenges you faced? 

      The Website's root folder got corrupted once, but we fixed it.

    4. What did you learn along the way? 

      I learned that if one color doesn't suit your website, you should add a gradient background
    5. What was some feedback you were given? 

      None

    6. What did you change?
      mainly just the logo changed over time.
      What is your overall opinion of your work in 4th Quarter? 


      great. the website looked amazing, the video commercial was good, and our logo was genius.

      1. How did you use your time in class this quarter?
        we used it effectively.

        1. What activities did you complete during class time? 

          all but the website, which took a bit of lunch to wrap up

        2. How did you stay productive in the times that you finished early or thought you
 were done?  (Did you research ways to improve your skills? Did you critique your project to find places to improve?  Did you communicate with your team when you were finished? Did they agree with you?) 


          1) no
          2) no
      What do you do outside of class to enhance your work as a e-Communication student or to better your projects? 

      I really don't do anything to do that. after all, I don't have these programs at home.

      1. What are your areas of strength as an employee or e-Communication student after one year? 

        I'm mainly good at web and video.

        1. How do you maximize your strengths?
      By working on web and video
      1. What are your areas in need of improvement?
        Animation.

        1. What did you do to support or improve in these areas?
          nothing. Alexis, Miles, and Thalia handled animation while I did the website
      2. Summary

        1. What did you love most about this quarter? 

          The memes. probably. I dunno.

        2. What would you change or do differently? 

          I would not have accepted Thalia's challenge to chess.

        3. Overall take-away or learning from this quarter? 
          Never play chess. Ever. unless its casual. 


        4. One goal you would like to set for next year? 

          Hope to god chess goes out of style over summer
        5. Final thoughts? 

          1) I had fun working with this group (a rarity)
          2) surprisingly work was split evenly
          3) God danger future me DO NOT PLAY CHESS!
