My personality traits

 My Myers-Briggs personality type is ENFP or Extravert, intuitive, Feeling, Perceiving. None of my traits are largely dominate most of them are more neutral. This type is motivational and energetic while focusing on the possibilities and what how they can make things better. Famous people with this type are Robin Williams, Walt disney and Salvador Dali.

I think that my type does fit me such as there I am not very strongly to one side or the other.  I think that all of my letters and percents fit me. This help me know why some of things that happen such as high energy. Also the thought process of i think that i can change things and make them better is also common to my type.

When I am in groups i always tend to be the leader role or the one that checks to make sure everyone is getting their work done. This seems to be common to my type and fits me. In the past people seem to have thought of me as the one that can take notes and keep time or keep everyone on track but i am not very goo with deadlines and this dose not fit me.

Through this project I have learned more about how your personality traits can affect your behavior and how you act in groups. I have also learned that test like these are not always accurate and you can't rely to much on the results.      

We also took the LOGB test and my results were mainly otter and second highest was lion. These result say that i am a energetic and fun loving but also very competitive.                                                            

Bouncing ball

Bouncing ball

This is my first animation it is a bouncing ball to help us learn how to use squash and stretch to make an illusion of speed. we also learned how to use photoshop to animate and turn our frames into an animation. We used the gradient tool to  make our sphere and ground look more 3D and not just super flat and 2D. Then to do a little extra I added some features and made it look like Mike Wazowski from the movie Monsters Inc

Colleges look at social media

Colleges start to check social media accounts

I recently read a article about the affect of your social media on your chance of getting into college. This article talks about how many colleges are starting to look at your social media accounts before letting you into their college. Many high school seniors work very hard to get applications done to colleges they want to attend and try to get their GPA up so that they will look better but they don't think about the fact that their social media accounts could ruin their chances. The things people do on their social media accounts can very easily affect their chance of acceptance to college especially if the college has lots of applicants and can afford to be choosey.

 What I found out may surprise you

The practice of checking an applicants social media is not routine at most colleges but is still always a possibility and can affect anyone. Many high school students are starting to clean pup their social media so that they will look better for colleges and arguing that this is no different then the efforts they already make to look better for college application. Many people might think that college admission officers are old but many are young and know how to use technology just as well as teens.

But what do we still not know

Even with lots of information given to us by this article there is still lots of information that we still have yet to find out about how colleges can use you social media accounts when look at accepting you to their college. Any online comment, picture, or any post could tamper your chance of acceptance to the college. Another surprising thing is that when looking at your social media the colleges do not nee to tell you that they looked at it. You could get denied by a college with no explanation for why.

What i will do about it 

I do not plan on changing my social media use at all with the information i have found. The reason for this is not that I don't think of this a important or something that wont affect me but i have know this information and already think about it when using social media. If I had not previously known this then i would be more careful about what I post and making sure that i think through what i am going to post before I post it.

Photoshop

These are my photoshop projects that i have been working on the last few weeks. The one at the top we learned how to use the gradient tool and how to type words into a picture. This project was very difficult and took a long time but overall I learned a lot of useful things that will help in the future.
The second project we learned how to use the magnetic lasso to take out parts of a picture and place them somewhere else. We used this to take the raven head and place it in the picture of the school. Another thing we learned was how to use the magic eraser and get rid of part of a picture.  Our 3rd project we learned how to fade type and crop our pictures to get rid of unneeded area. Our 4th project was all about how to change the hue and color of areas in a picture and then to duplicate using the clone stamp

Personal logo

This is my personal logo that i made through adobe illustrator. The goal of working on this project was to learn the symbolism of different shapes and colors and use them in our work. the green in the logo represents go or progress and helps to give the message that progress is being made. The letters L, B and L are my initials making the logo represent me and my brand. The points on the boxes represent the unevenness you see in the world not defining the brand to a single uniform product but an array of different products. A box is put the middle to stabilize the four outer sections while also connecting them and bring the four part into one logo. Together many elements must come together to make a good logo that can be recognized.
