TECHNOLOGY TALK ''TT''

''TT''
To me I think that flash had been somewhat hard but I can live with it. I say that because I think that I know these things but I don't know a LICK ABOUT IT! So I try to go home and try to figure it out ahead of time but I can never get to it, so I just go with the flow of it at school and get/ work with my peers on flash for the first time. I think that if we sorta slow things down a little bit we can get some where but slowly. I think that the coding in flash is important because with out the coding we wouldn't be able to make the game go and the characters move around the screen. Also it would effect the screen changing. I think that if I wanted to become a flash expert I will just have to learn how to deal with it and go with the flow like I sorta do now but a little more, because I don't wanna get kicked out of the class if I really wanted that bad. I really think that they are helping me thought the programme and that I can do more things with the Web ex videos. But the bust thing about them is that go step by step to explain how to get the game done right and not wrong. Also it teach you how to do more stuff than what we already learned. Although I didn't say no to question 5 I have some improvement tips. First maybe Meredith can slow the processes down so I can kinda figure out what she is saying, and doing. I guess my slow intellect can speed up or something but the process do go fast but I can take notes I guess... Yes I guess it can flash will help me with my future but, but just a little.

SHANNON SULLIVAN VISIT

The visit from Ms. Shannon Sullivan was cool because she came all the way from New York to help us with our game projects and wiki. I thought that this Globaloria class was boring with the files to upload and stuff, but it is sorta fun but but when Ms. Sullivan came she made it fun by making jokes about how to upload flash files on to wiki. I forgot about some of them but it will come back to me later. But for some reason Mrs. Miller wasn't there to experience the coolness of Ms.Sullivan. Now I fell like I know a lot more than what I used to about flash, and in wiki. Like she taught us another way to get a SWF. file and a FLA. file. she said to go to file and go to publish settings and take off the HTML. and push publish. I liked it. I hope she come back soon.

Flash

A TIME IN FLASH
Drawing in flash is a cool and fun thing that I had trouble with. The first thing is that when I tried to make the picture come up it didn't,
I tried to save it it didn't, I tried to make the text appear and you know what??? I IT DIDN'T WORK. The flash is a hard thing to use and operate. But other than that it was fun. I think now that I think about it I want to go home and get flash and make my own game, and become more familiar with the software. The whole topic of my game is water and air pollution, to win the game you have to do all sorts of cool things to clear the level and win. I think it is a great game .
So far my team has gotten really far with the game. We are almost done with the paper prototype and that is about it.
We have been getting along great so far but Elias he is not a participator. I think that groups are better because all the pressure isn't all on you and funner. I and I really like the way we all used our game topics for the one group project. Because I like the game now?.

(N.G.P.) New Group Post

The Good, The Bad, And You
The Group:
Jonathan Henderson; Team Captain
Valerie Flores; Flash Workerperson
Dajasia Hitchcock; Sectary
Karina S; Wiki Updater
I think that this group will be fun and cool when we will be able to get a lot done
and we will be able to get it done fast. I think that we will learn a lot from each other. We are al ready the best of friends. I really want to start the game and and have a lot fo fun doing the game. The way we are doing this we have each person that need to have a meeting with the group we will have a meeting and they can tell us what they want us or them to do. We will have a great time I hope...

My job is the president. I am sorta good at this position but my team say I need to be more stricter. I had some disagreements with one kid he is so oh..... I told the teacher and he got some act right, he is the organizer he holds the paper.
I look forward for making the game, playing it, and going to Washington D.C.
The inspiration for my game is smokers and air pollution/water because with out water and air we wont be able to live.

Paper prototyping

The Green Effect I really liked when we showed the games/paper prototype but other than that I thought it was boring. I had fun searching it when we were looking up the information, and when we colored the prototype. No... Well sort of... Yes... No... Well I did not find it difficult it was mostly fun. Yes it helps with planning the game and you don't have to think of the game step by step and then forget. I enjoyed working with a team instead of having to do all the work by your self and that one
burden will be on you. I like most of it liked except Dajasia left that one day and we were a little behind but as soon as she came back we were back on scheduled.
I think It will go great and have a good time making our games.
