Invention Commercial


P2T9_Invention from Kapaa Middle School MEDIA on Vimeo.

Our team's goal was to get good grade and to do really well on the project. But we struggled a little because we couldn't do some of the shots where and we didn't meet up to film. But we did good. I think that we should of did a better job at the entertainment part but other than that it was good. I really think we should of got at least a "A" on this project.

The best team moments was when we had to film the part where Taylor runs around and sprays her self it was funny. Also you could here Mike saying "What are those" . Another team moment was when we was putting the commercial together because we all pitched in and helped make it good. We spent a while on the filming because so of the other groups was loud or the shot wasn't the way we wanted it. We turned the commercial in on time and we made the deadline for the commercial, we are happy that we got it on time.

Composition Scavenger Hunt




I think the best one was the unusual angle because I had to stand up on the fire hydrant and trying to stay still. It was hard because the fire hydrant was round and i had to grip my shoes on to it to keep my self balanced. We had to redo so much because the wind kept blowing hard and other people was talking loud and the music class was drumming so we moved and kept redoing it till we had a perfect video.


The most difficult was rule of thirds land because there was no place perfect for the shot and it was to far for the camera. So we just decided to just go with the canopy above the library. We should of go to the Field and use the great picture of Lihue and Hanamaulu.


Taylor was doing the voice over and was in some of the shots. Kiana was is some shots and helped film. I was in couple shots and recording alot. We worked really hard and we stayed focus and did our work. We also helped another team with a group photo shot.

Cracking the Code

I think that the people that want to learn how to make a game or something that uses codes to learn coding, because if you don't want to code them you shouldn't learn to code. Coding is hard for beginners but it brings people together and makes our brains work. Coding is a great example to make games and other stuff.

This is my first time working with coding its really fun and challenging you basically are making a game. The game is to show people how to do stuff and they can make what ever they want and make it really awesome.

I designed a game that shut down couple years ago but some people still have it just for fun and to play with it when they get bored. You can use my FLAPPY BIRD game in the link below. I made it the same just to bring the fun back but I added more characters and different obstacles plus different scenes. I have added a shark, bunny, turkey, submarine, fairy, Santa slay, rocket, superman, nemo, unicorn, bat, bat man, the original yellow bird and the red bird from floppy bird. The scenes are city (day), city (night), syfy, underwater, cave, and a night time scene.

My Humorous Monologue

We are doing a comedy project for our GT class with Mr. Sanderl. Me and other returning GT students had to show our new GT students how to use a camera and its functions. It was fun but we had some trouble because we didn't use the cameras for over 3 months and it was complicated and hard to remember how to use the camera and to explain it to the new GT students.

Padding is when you give time before you start your video. For example you say rolling press the button the after 3 seconds you say action so you catch the footage and won't get cut off. After you finish your video you can say cut. You have to do this so you audio won't get cut off and to make your chances better of getting it good.

The weakness of the video is if your audio is cut and you are out of order. The strength is if you get your audio is good and it din't get cut off. You can improve it by going over your video and checking for mistakes and audio check. IMovie is hard to edit if you don't know how to work iMovie and you don't know how to edit your video.

Comedy Writing

Sense of humor is an important character trait because it is a special part of a joke /or funny story, what is a joke /or funny story without a sense of humor? Nothing right, it wouldn't be as funny the person your telling it to will be like "what? I don't get it". Only you will laugh and you might think it's funny but other than that they will think of it as a not funny joke joke. friends tell each other jokes and laugh but some don't laugh.

There are many ways to write a humorous narrative. The first way is make sure that what your writing makes sense and its funny. The second way is to have a believable story. The third way is to think outside of the box and go out of this world. The fourth way is to make up a creature or a funny person and write funny stuff about them. The fifth way is to be creative and don't take someone's idea and use it as yours.

My comedic monologue is about me and my step dad in home depot.Its funny because my step dad makes a funny play and hits the toilet paper roll back to me. Then we all go home laughing and picturing it in our minds and laughing again.

Motivational Poster

The requirements for Motivational Poster:
A motivational poster has to include 6 layers. You have one for your manifesto and one for your personal manifesto. Also 4 layers of images that represent who you are and a portrait of your face. The design requirements are to do kerning on your letters across the whole page so that you don't see any white spaces. A triadic color scheme has to have a dominant color balanced by 2 colors. Also a visual balance is needed to equal weight of the elements of a artistic appeal.

I added my pictures first and put them where they fit and how they look. Next I added my text layer of my motivational quotes / personal manifesto. Then I went ahead and put the text layers in there spots and how the go with my pictures. My motivational poster is a little plain because I was rushing to finish my work to get it on time and tried to do my best on my quality work. Last I went ahead and put what I needed on it and saved it, and put it into our server file in our class.

My biggest challenge was getting my photos because I didn't have some on my phone or my GoPro it was on a camera at my moms BF's house and I don't go there till Thursday so I had to ask him for the pictures. The football was on my phone but my picture of my self was taken at school with a camera we borrowed from our GT class. The fishing poles and boogie boards were from my trip to Polihale, I toke pictures of my poles before I left to go Polihale and my boogie boards was at Polihale with my brother holding the boards from the back. But my motivational quotes / personal manifesto had me thinking for days, just so I can get it perfect and really touching. Everything in life is about taking a risk and having a fun time with family and friends.

Personal Manifesto

I'm a very athletic person because I like to through the football to my brother and/or play defense against him so he can get the drift on how football works. I love to fish because when you fish its about having fun not catching a fish every time you cast your pole out and I get to bond with my unko/stepdad. I work at the heliport sometimes with my unko/stepdad and him fix the helicopters. I love to body board at Polihale because of the big waves and sick barrels. I also like to ride bike and do tricks like bunny hop, pop wheely, do huge jumps off of ramps.

Life is life. Life is short so fill it to the fullest. don't worry about messing up in life

even if we have only one chance

so do what you can now than later

love your family and friends

do what you can for the now before this all ends

respect them then they will respect you back
laughter always changes the mood

It applys because Life is short so live it to the fullest. Because it will all end soon.
