Animoto Trailer

Section 2 AnimotoTrailer

In computer science we had to make a video game trailer on Animoto on one of the games we made on Gamestar Mechanic. Animoto is a web site that allows you to easily make a trailer. You can pick music from animoto or download it from your own album. You can also put pictures or clips of your choice on your trailer. You get to also pick the background of your trailer too. When you want to create a slideshow I like how 1. You can chose any picture of your choice from the internet or from your photo album. 2. After you add the pictures, animoto does the rest of the work for you. 3. You can see which pictures you have and delete them easily if needed. While I was making my trailer i did have a few challenges though such as 1. I couldn't understand how to upload the pictures to the trailer. 2. I didn't know how to save without publishing my trailer. 3. There wasn't good music. Animoto would also be useful for making a nice photo movie if needed.

Educational Game for Tamagawa Reflection

Yume needs a way to play a hard educational game because she likes hard games and she needs to play the educational project. I had to first think of kinds of hard games there are, then I started thinking of how I can make a game hard enough for Yume. Than I started working and editing my project for her, correcting something if it was wrong. Since there wasn't enough space in one level and I didn't want to add extra cameras, I made multiple levels so she didn't have to only play one level. If I were to improve my game, I would make a last level seeing the villagers thanking the avatar for defeating the big threat.

Dilara Ezer's Personal Introduction Video

I chose Voki because I personally think that it is easier than Xtranormal. Here are three positives and three negatives of using Voki.

Positive's

1. Quick, easy to use.
2. If you want to add a voice, you can record your own voice.
3. If you don't like your character, you can just roll the dice to get a new one.

Negative's

1. Sometimes takes a while to get the character you want.
2. Not a full body character.
3. Can't make it act or move.

Game Design With Game Star Mechanic

The best game I made in Gamestar Mechanic is Clean Slate (the only game I made so far). I was aiming for making my game challenging, but fun at the same time.

Design Thinking Reflection - Redesigning Gift Giving Experience

 Hasan needs a way to get his sister a better present because the present he gave her wasn't the greatest present ever. I gave Hasan a few idea's to help him make better gifts. My solution for           him was to try taking time or even save up money to buy a present. I made a blue paper box            and but a bow on top, and it turned out to be a fake present. If  I had time to make a better       solution, I would show Hasan some examples.
