final reflection

The design that I am going to work on Scratch is the storyboard that has the lonely girl in it. The reason that I am going to do it about the lonely girl is because I think loneliness is a big problem in our lives. When people can't find friends or anybody to talk to, they become lonely. When I start making the interactive video on Scratch it will be more interesting and more fun to do.  When I do it on scratch I am going to use the glide feature to make my character glide, making it more interesting. I am also going to change the background to make it clear that the scene has changed. I am also going to make two new characters called May and April. There are going to be sound effects in the background and there are going to be lots of conversations between the 2 characters. The reason that I chose to do this is to raise awareness about loneliness. The project is following through as I expected but I am facing some troubles and obstacles due to the fact that I have never used Scratch before, and am still trying to find my way around it. There are 4 scenes in this story, you can tell that the scene changes when the background changes. This project is original because I came up with it all by myself, and is interesting and important because it is a real life problem and it has happened to my friend before. I have now completed 2 of my scratch programming, I went according to plan, and I have done 1 about my hobby football and one about getting friends and not being lonely. I enjoyed doing it on scratch because i like the way that it was made, you can use it to express or show anything about you or about anything. The things that i found tricky about making the whole program is how to make two characters have a conversation and to get the timing right between each conversation. If i could/would do this project again it will be adding more conclusion and movement into it. In conclusion i enjoyed doing the project and have learnt many things, I had many obstacles in my way, but i have managed to get over them. I could always improve on trying new things and i would love to do this again with more effort and lots more improvements to be made.

scratch reflection (not the final one)

I have finished my second project on scratch. I did this one about football, I did it about football because my hobby is about playing football so I chose something to do with my identity and something that represents me. The characters in this scratch program are called Avery ad Alex. This story also represents me because I was also a type of person to be shy of showing something you like, so I did this to show my story but in an animated form. There was only one background that I used, but I used lots of conversation between 2 characters, I also used movements such as glide. The background was on a football pitch because that is where my story relates to. The starting conversation began when Avery asked Alex if she liked playing football, then Alex said yes and started playing football with him just for fun.  The most thing that I found interesting and fun about this is the fact where I could have many different movements happening at the same time, what I found tricky was the fact where you have to be exact in the timing you use between each conversation I used in the project. If I was going to do this project again I would improve on making new and more interesting things to get a higher mark and add some sound in it to make it look more realistic. In conclusion I found it fun making the scratch program project but it can take a lot of time to get everything right and perfect.

reflection on scratch ( the final one)

On scratch i have finished one of the projects, I did this one about people who cant find friends because they have just came and people are judging them, so i made a scratch programming about a girl who couldn't find friends called May and a girl called April came to cheer her up. I used 2 different backgrounds in this program, one is the school in the playground and the other one was in Aprils room. they both had a conversation between each other. They both began with introducing themselves. Then April asked why May was so lonely and the answer was because she was new and no one would be her friend. I did this to show that no on should judge people at the first sight, and that no one should be lonely. The thing that i found interesting and fun was how you can change the background automatically to show that the scene has changed. The thing that i found hard or tricky is how to control the timings, how many seconds the other person has to wait so the other person can finish talking. The new thing that i have learnt was how you can change the background automatically, because before i thought you can only have one background for the whole project. I am an IB learner because i have used my knowledge on the project and i was an inquirer because i asked questions. I am also organized because i have finished my project in time  

scratch projects ( the final)

story boards

In IT class we were learning about making conversations between two characters on the website or app scratch. I did my story about a girl called may and another girl called April. May had no friends so April decided to come and ask her to her house so they can be friends.  she agreed and went over to may's house. I wanted to do this about two people becoming friends because I think it is right to have friends with someone instead of being a lone. I firs planed on what I should do it about. then I sketched it on a different piece of paper and made up conversation, now i am planning to do the same story on scratch. The thing that I found interesting is when I was working on it on scratch, I like how we can use the different techniques and unique shapes and characters. The thing that I found challenging was the time that was between each person’s conversation, you need to get it correctly or Aprils conversation may be in the way of Mays conversation. The thing that I found surprising was is how you could make the background in many different places. I also like how you can make different sounds to go with your characters very realistic

                                      

Reflection:

We had to do a second story board with a different story, this one is talking about my hobby which is playing football. The characters are the same as my first story. This story talk about a girl who loves to play football but was too shy to play it with someone because she was afraid if they are going to judge on how she plays, so then another person came and encouraged her to play it with her and she agreed, the girl after that scored a goal and the other who didn't want to play football was a bit embarrassed because she lost but then she understood what she had to deal with in life. i decided to do this story because i love football and it happened to me before i started playing football in the girls football team in primary and high school. The thing that i like about this is if i put it on scratch i can learn new things like maybe how you can walk or run, i haven't tried it yet but i probably will sometime. The thing that i was proud of in this assessment is how i used areal life story in it. I could have improved on improving how my pictures look like and make it on scratch more realistic.
