first thing we did this morning when we came in was to fill out our action plan which we have to do from now on till we finish the course.
This morning we had are usual test on the TED video. As not per usual I failed dismally, there is only one simple explanation for this and that is I did not watch the video. i usually remember but this time I forgot as i was too busy working.
Today I edited my band images on Photoshop as i wanted to add different effects to the. I think I have completed my Assignment three task one, in the last bit of the task i did today was to write about copyright and the three different copyright laws, these are public domain, royalty free and copyright protected. I also said about the dangers of the using copyright material.
I completed a video for my hardware task which is about testing the system performance and all I need to put some music to it, I will then upload it to YouTube and send john the link.
I have done web production task which is task four, i managed to complete it and need to do task 5 and 6 for web production.
Today was full of work but all in all a good day.

When we first got in we looked at Airbrushing and what it is. we then looked at George Clooney, a picture showing before and after. the after picture had all his wrinkles removed and he no longer had any grey hairs what so ever, his eyebrows were also lifted a little and darkened. they lifted his right shoulder so it wasn't so far down and didn't slope down as much.
Today we were carrying on with Assignment three Task one. I have completed all of my picture for my band by merging the band members and a place somewhere around the world. I got four backgrounds and checked whether they are copyright protected and luckily they were not. i have added some effects on each picture.
Most important today I had my ILP with the one and only Catherine, I received my targets that have to be completed by the end of January.
Today was a good ole laugh.

First thing today we had to do the TED test which was related to the video that everyone was supposed to watch. I managed to watch it this time and got 81% which was 2 questions wrong which isn't bad going.
After that we cracked on with our Graphics task, the task I was doing today was assignment 3 task 1 which was to collect our feedback on our band logos and combined the information to edit the best logo. I completed that today and as i went along i took some screen shots as evidence of what I was doing as that is needed in the task.
After lunch all the level three's which includes me had to do a mini tutorial to the level two's on how to combine two images together and make it look as realistic ish as possible. I got an image of a Rat and put Nick Griffin's face on it and gave him some rat ears. It looks rather good consider I have never done anything like that before.
The best image created today is this photo that Dan made
Matty's (second in from the left) face fits too good for this.
Today was a good day and I really enjoyed today, we had some good laughs on our table

This morning we looked at cyber army, gang when john showed us. After that we looked at north Koreas internet and had a look at how strict it is. they are not allowed to search for things out side of their country. John asked us all to search for a website where you can get all vector formats.
Then we carried on with assignment one task three and four. we are also doing assignment 2 task one which is our band logos.
Once we had our first break john asked us to write our own definition of copy right which would be aimed at 15 year old's.
Today was tedious as assignment one has a lot of tasks to do but I am getting there. Overall it wasn't to bad but was full of work

Wednesday 5th December
This morning when we came in we watched some videos on YouTube which involved people doing amazing stunts. There were many different stunts which were pretty impressive. The reason why he was showing us the video is because he wanted to point out all the attributes those people have, that we don't have. He also pointed out that everyone needs determination to achieve their goals in life.
After that we chatted about the article which was on BBC news website about mobile phone having seismometer built in. we talked about whether it would be a good idea and what would be the advantages to have that in a phone.
Today we were carrying on with our Graphics work of all Assignment 1. I have nearly completed all of assignment one all I need to do is Task 4.
I sent out my surveys around the class to people, so they can fill it out, I received three back and awaiting four more. I took a screen shot to prove I have sent the survey to multiple people.
John came around the class and had a look at the folder layouts and how tidy they are. I had to create folders for each assignment and put each task them in the right folder.

Today the first thing we did was Looked a few articles, which included one about a girl having her computer taken away from her for trying to download one song and finding out she couldn't and her father had to pay fine even though they were not able to download the song. the morning was basically about illegal downloading (piracy).
We then had a questionnaire on the Ted video. as usual I got a high score 100% with no help at all from Luke.
The main task we were doing today was to finish off our logos but as I finished my logos yesterday i did a different task. the task was to write about and summaries what you can do in the programs we selected in earlier tasks. I have done Firework and Photoshop, I just need to do Illustrator and then i think I am done.
After lunch we had a look at different logos and had to guess how much each one cost everyone was way out and some prices were ridiculous. one of the prices were $211 million.
I learnt that I don't have to watch the ted video as I got 100% but it is best I did next time for my own benefit.

Monday 3rd December
Today when we came in we watched a video about super HD TV's which will be the next generation of TV's.
We then cracked on with our work designing our logos for the created or existing bands. we were supposed to create three but I created four as i had a few idea and thought it would be better designing more than required as I'm like that.
After lunch we had to create a folder on our pen drive called Format Test and had to create a circle and square in Photoshop. we then had to save in the created folder but in six different formats. once everyone had done that we had a look to see who had the biggest file and disgust why the size of the file varies when putting them in different formats.
Today we learnt that Ashley's raw file is bigger than Johns, it rather tickled Matty.
Today we had a few laughs on our table. it was a nice and relaxing day to start the week off.
