Final Exam

4.

I took my single, transformed photo in the beginning of this school year. While being ambitious during the school year, I took a lot of photos of different kinds of campus structures such as lunchboxes, trophy cases, plants and flowers, garden views, and building structures. My transformed photo was Kevin Mathis and Junior Wei sitting on the bench. Because both of my classmates liked that structure of the wood bench, I chose that photo that changed how you view photography.
5. Based on Elements of Art:
-Shapes can be geometric, like squares and circles; or organic, like free-form or natural shapes. Shapes are flat and can express length and width. (Tall pond leaves)
-Forms are three-dimensional shapes expressing length, width, and depth. Balls, cylinders, boxes, and pyramids are forms. (European pitcher plant) 
6. Based on Principles of Design
-Pattern is the repeating of an object or symbol all over the work of art. (Garden sift)
-Repetition works with pattern to make the work of art seem active. The repetition of elements of design creates unity within the work of art. (Teacher awards)
7. My Weebly About page is inspired by Kevin Mathis.
    c. Commercial Shoot
I believe project "a" is my best work because I like the way how artwork begins to change its structure and form.  That project changed the way I snapped photos because those interesting pictures authorise fantastic formation of dye colors. It also specifies new color palettes and hues in the next pictures and the place from Google images. I learned to see different pictures by copying images from Google images, editing in Adobe Photoshop, transferring into Adobe Fireworks, and uploading into blogger.com before publishing them. My projects changed the world of photos historically.

Student Website Reviews

Per.1 Nitya Tara Vakil
I like the photos which reveal stuffed animals. I used to have one when I was three or four. Still, I take car of them and don't want to hurt them.

Per. 2 Nicole Phan's Blog
The best photos I like are homemade roses dyed in different colors. These flowers much prettier as Nicole painted them. She must also give them to me on graduation day.

Per 4 Jacob Walter's Blog
The pictures I like best are baseball pictures. I used to play baseball when I was eight, and won a gold trophy. Now I watch baseball shows on FOX Sports Channel. I like the MSJ Warriors the most because they play better than other baseball teams.

MSJMCW Story

On Monday to Friday, I start to get in to the Multicultural Party at the Horshoe Parking Lot. When I look at different cultures, there are foods around the world such as: fried rice, pineapple buns, falafels, and crepes. I eat a few foods after buying numerous tickets in the ticket shop. Later, if I like every food I saw, I get more because I don't have enough food for lunch every day. It is very wealthy to sacrifice our world and technology. Although I want to buy foods to make my own food stand, I tell my parents to go to Costco, FoodMax, or 99 Ranch market to buy a lot for students, selling everything. My personality for Multicultural Week is naming all foods around the world makes me wonder about how multicultural potlucks began long ago. I am looking forward to make my own multicultural food stand next year!

A list of multicultural ethnicities is written here:

  • Monday- Asia
  • Tuesday- Africa
  • Wednesday- North/South America
  • Thursday- Europe
  • Friday- Your culture
