I.C.T. Research and Test video evaluation

Research on animations:

The Lego animations are good and it uses some special effects like the light saber and the movements of the Lego pieces but the blasters shooting weren’t so good and the voices as well.

The Lego Arcade series is made up of all the classic arcade games but remade with Lego. I looked up on all the games that were in the Lego arcade and all the games on Lego arcade really looks similar.

This animation is about a kiwi that pinned trees to a side of a cliff. The kiwi jumps down and it actually looks like the kiwi is flying. It is good and it probably took a lot of frames and time to make it.

I think this animation is good with the same reasons as the first one.

This animation is pretty good because it changes what the things would look, taking away and throwing parts of the screen around and it was really funny.

Test Video Evaluation:

In this test video, it shows four archers being ambushed by a knight that jumped off a castle wall. He hits his face on the ground and one of the archers slices his head off. We drew blood with “I Can Animate” to make it really look like the knight’s head got sliced off and when the knight jumped off the castle, we used a magnetic Lego brick to stick the knight on the wall until the knight hits the ground. What I can improve on is that instead of making two red circles for the blood, we could use many little circles to make it look like it went everywhere. Another thing is that we could try not use sudden movements because it just makes the movements a bit jittery. (Note our final animation is based on Robin Hood)

(The animation from "I Can Animate" does not work)

1.What I had to do and what my specific role was:
My role was basically just moving one of the chairs until it is out of the screen and after that I helped the others moved some other objects.

2. How I think it went, how could I improve:
I could be more active because when we made the animation, I think I didn't really do that much and I think I can do more.

Case Studies Post - How Has Blogging gone bad?

Blogging can be good for different things like education and personal things. However, there is some downsides of blogging. You might not be aware of this but you might be putting information that is supposed to remain secret like your house address or telephone number. That can affect you in the real life because giving out something like your house address could allow anybody to find you. To avoid doing these mistakes, try to be as careful as possible by checking it for anything that shouldn't be on the blog.

Spanish: About Me

¡Hola! Me llamo Johnathan. Soy Chino. Tengo trece años. Vivo en Hong Kong. Me encantan los videojuegos y el tenis. Juego mi videojuegos con el ordenador. En mi tiemp libre , yo juego con el ordenador o veo la television. Nunca voy de compras y el studio. ¡Es muy aburrido!

Yo tengo el pelo corto y negro. Tengo los ojos negros. Tengo gafas y tirantes. Tengo una hermana se llama Rachel. Es baja y molesta.

Mi rutina diaria es molesta. Por la mañana me despierto, me levanto, desayuno y luego voy al instituto. Por la tarde hago mis deveres, juego con mi ordenador, ceno y veo la television. Me acuesto a las nueve o diez.

Science: Health and Fitness

What I eat:
At breakfast, I don't really have a fixed routine on what I eat. I just eat either leftovers from dinner, something from the drawer or I just have an apple.

At lunch, I just eat whatever the school serves but if they serve something I don't really like then i will just wait till I get home and then eat lunch.

At dinner, there would usually be at least rice and some sort of vegetable. If there is no rice then there would be noodles. The vegetables I like is choi sam, broccoli and cabbage. After the dinner, I would always eat a fruit, usually a banana, an apple or an orange and sometimes even all three.

My Exercise:
On Monday, I have a one hour tennis lesson.
On Tuesday, I have another tennis lesson as an after school activity.
On Wednesday, I have P.E class (physical education) at school.
On Thursday, I have another P.E class at school.
On Friday, I don't have any exercise excluding walking.
On Saturday, I have table tennis, golf training and swimming.
On Sunday, I don't have any exercise but sometimes I go to golf with my parents.
I now try to walk the dog around Hong Lok Yuen every night if I have time.

Gym
When I was in year 7, I went to the gym a lot in the week and ate healthy foods sometimes at dinner. After year 7, I didn't have any spare time to go to the gym and my dad canceled my gym membership because he needs to pay monthly and now I can't go to the gym anymore. When I was still going to the gym, i was losing weight (actually, i am losing mass) but after year 7, I started to gain weight again and for my New Years Resolution, I am going to write down "LOSE SOME WEIGHT (MASS)".
