PSA Ideas

- A PSA idea that I could do would be about freedom of speech.

- We are currently working on a video to do this PSA announcement. However if it were announced in a different media the PSA would be presented differently. If it was in print you wouldn't want long phrases but more bold short statements that portray what you want to say. Also the still images would need to have impact because a picture is worth a thousand words. If it were done in radio media there would be no images for the audience, so every word has to stand out. Using colorful imagery to capture the audience and make them feel what you feel is ideal.

- Going back to the media of video, if you change the audience the way the video is presented needs to change too. You have to consider the age of people you are working with and what appeals to them. You aren't going to do something too complicated if it's to kids, while you still need it to be informational and impactful. A good idea is look at other PSA announcements that goes to the audience of your target and see how they presented their video.

Audio Edits


For this assignment we were to edit two recordings.
In the interview there was a telelphone ringing and a high pitch noise. I had to physically delete the telephone ringing and the high pitch noise. This enabled the sound to be gone, but the voices to stay because it was a horizontal noise. For my personal recording which is labeled Natalia, I talked about myself while one of my friends clapped three times in the background. I had a harder time getting the clapping out of the audio for this set. I used the paint brush healing tool, and while the lines of the clapping were gone there was still a muffled sound of the clapping. I continued to use the healing tool, but it did not work. I could not delete the area entirely because then it would delete my voice.

Nicki Minaj Grammy Meme

Nick Minaj Grammy Memes

For class we were to take a celebrity and make a meme out of them.
During the Grammy's Nicki seemed to be mad about something and her reactions to the paparazzi were priceless. I figured that she would be the perfect candidate to become a new internet meme. And of course I couldn't just do one meme, Nicki's face is too perfect for only one haha.

Ideas


Brochure Color Scheme and Fonts




Most people for this assignment, being that it is about the schools passport system, would choose purple. However, I have always been a fan of more natural colors. Purple is indeed seen in nature, but blues and greens have calming effects which I find comforting. Also this color scheme flows nicely together which makes it pleasing to the eye. Which is also very important because you want your brochure to stand out so people will read it. Standout doesn't always mean wacky colors, but pleasing color combinations too. The ocean is what really inspired this color combination as well, calming, relaxing, but intriguing as well to look at. I plan to add those elements to my brochure to make it a work of art. I think the fonts flow nicely with the colors as well. The fancy font has almost a wave like motion, while the normal font ties it together nicely.
