In my class, I took a creative type quiz. My creative type came out to be a thinker. I don't think I am the thinker type. I do think something out before I do something but when it comes to creating something, I am not the one to ask to sketch something out or come up with and idea for something.

Do you recognize this game? Yes, you've got it! This is the classic arcade game called Centipede. The object of this game is to avoid and kill the centipede and spider. There are little round mushroom looking things that block your shot but if you shoot them enough, they will break or disappear. What makes this game so fun is the rush that you get when the centipede and spider get close to you but you don't die because you get away and then end up killing them. When you lose in this game, it makes you want to retry the levels a million times until you beat the game. I highly suggest this game to those who like to feel the rush and have fun. If I could change something in this game, I would change the graphics and make the colors brighter because it is hard to see the objects with the dark colors. The new developments in technology not only help us and change how we do things, it also changes the way we play video games. Technology has brought video games a long way. The graphics are better, the instructions are more clear, and there is no limit to any game because technology is that good. A few things that I have noticed in technological advancements is that it has come such a long way to where players can play together from all around the world, they can chat in chat rooms in the game, and the graphics are absolutely amazing. If you try and compare a video game from the 90s to a video game from now, they are completely different in so many ways i cannot even explain.
The picture to the left is a game called, "2 Fast 4 Gnomes" and it is played in the Wii. The object of the game is to collect as many socks as you can on each level. You have to avoid obstacles in order to not die. I have played this games for at least 2 hours straight before. I enjoy this game very much. I have beat the high score a couple of times. This game is very addictive because every time you die, you go back to the checkpoint but once you quit the game, you have to start all over. It isn't like Super Mario brothers where you can quit and save. Once you quit, you have to restart, unless you buy the full version but the one that I play is not the full version. My teacher had us watch a video about video games. The world one day is basically going to live off of video games. A lot of people say that video games aren't really a girl thing but in the video, they tell us that 46% of the gamers are females. There is a college called NYU that is about to graduate students who are going to be future video gamers, designer, etc. It is cool to me but why make a career off of video games? Don't get me wrong they are really fun and can help the human mid but not when they are being played hours upon hours, days upon days. The video is really interesting and gives good points about video games. Click here to watch if you seem interested.
Please click here to see my Phenakistoscope.
For my phenakistoscope, I did a bouncing basketball. It was simple and easy. I also love playing basketball just for fun because I would never play on a team but it is so much fun to me to play basketball. This was my first time doing a phenakistoscope and so I wanted to keep it simple. I love the way it came out. It made me proud because I didn't think mine would come out they way I wanted to. In Photoshop, we have so many tools that we use to edit photos. This passed week, we learned a couple of new tools. One of the tools I learned how to use it the Blur tool which helps blur things out so they aren't as noticeable. There are a couple of steps you must use in order for the tool to work but, it is sort of complicated to try and explain so, I will show you a before and after picture of my work that I did while using the blur tool. There used to be a couple in this picture but you can't even tell where they were, thanks to the blur tool! In this class, I learn a lot about how to edit photos. So far I have learned how to cut things out in a picture and how to move them to where I would like place them in the picture. It is kind of complicated but I just have to get used to it. I have also learned how to work on the photoshop app. There are lots of different tools that I can work with to help me edit my pictures. For example the wand tool. The wand tool is magical because you can do so many different things with it.
