Highlight Video

     I used several tools to make my video in Final Cut Pro. The blade tool was probably the most helpful tool I used in editing my video. This tool is used by pressing command b on the keyboard and then clicking on the part of the clip that you want to “slice” in half. You can use this tool to trim clips of your video. I used it to help get the video on time with the music. I also used the left and right arrows on the keyboard so I could end and begin the video at the exact time that I want it to. I picked cheerleading because it is my favorite sport and activity. It’s really fun but hard at the same time which is what I like about it. I also like it because I met most of my friends through cheerleading. I’ve been cheering since I can remember. Cheerleading is my absolute favorite thing to do.

Examination of my dream home

          I am pretty satisfied with my dream home. One of my favorite things about it is all of the windows. On the right side wall of the house there is a large window panel. On the left extension of the house there is a window panel that basically covers the whole wall. There are also three arched windows which I like because they add some unique-ness compared to the average rectangular windows. I think windows are a simply way to make the home look better on both the exterior and interior.

         My absolute favorite thing about my house is the roof top garden. It's a creative idea and I really like it. I created the fence, grass, and railing. The palm tree and flowers were from the 3D warehouse.  My house is plain, so this garden helps spice it up. I also like the railing's color. My house has little color, so the railing adds color. 

        Using Sketchup helped extend my knowledge of shapes and was helpful for not only animation but all of the other E-comm branches. It will be useful in graphic design to have some prior knowledge to modeling and the shapes over technology. Now that I can model in three dimensions, it will be even easier when I'm only modeling in two dimensions. I think that having used Sketchup will help in the future and it taught me a lot.
