Personalty tests

If you have ever wondered what your personality says about you, there are ways to see, and you can learn a lot about yourself you may not have even known.
I learned that my personality is more rare, taking up only 2% of the general population. My type is INFJ which stands for: Introvert-INtuitive-Feeling-Judging


Take the test for yourself: https://drive.google.com/

We also took a test that showed which animal you are based off of common personality traits that resemble that of an animal.
My animal is a lion! Which tells me that I am a leader. A lion is good at making decisions and is very goal oriented. Lions enjoy challenges, difficult assignments, and opportunity for advancement. Lions are always thinking of their goal and never give up on it. For this they can be aggressive and competitive. Although I do no think I am aggressive nor competitive, I think most everything else is accurate. My strengths say that I am goal oriented, strong, and direct. While my weaknesses are that I am argumentative and too dictatorial. I'm not sure if this is entirely accurate, I consider myself more to be a beaver type. Beavers are creative, organized, and take their time on assignments. This sounds more like my personality rather than a bossy or argumentative lion.

The 6 shot system

The six shot system is a way or sequence of pictures/ clips to show what a person in doing by showing their emotion, action, setting, and the view of what they see. These shots do not have to be in order. 


1.) Close-up of hands: Shows what the person being filmed is doing. It also shows action.








2.) Close-up of face: Shows emotion or how the person feels/ thinks of what he or she is doing.








3.) Over the shoulder: Shows what the person is doing/ from their perspective.


 4.) Medium shot: Ties together what the person is doing/ seeing, how he or she feels, and what they are looking at.







5.) Wide shot: Shows the person's whole body. Head to toe.








6.) Extra wide shot: Shows the setting that the person is in.

Social Media is Affecting More than Just your Social Life

Image result for college admission officers not acceptedWhat it's about

Your Social Media can and will be looked over by college admission officers. They are able to see what you post and can effect if you're accepted by the college you applied for- no matter how good your GPA may be


What Surprised me

A high school senior was going in the right direction until she posted disparaging comments on twitter about her attendees. The college denied her admission.

Colleges are not the only ones looking through peoples social media mentions. Jobs are too, and can deny someone the same way a college can if bad content is found on their account.

What I questioned

 Admission officers nose around social media posts of students, which to me seems like an invasion of privacy- even if it is for a probable cause. Making me wonder if this should be legal for anyone to do.

Students change their searchable names on Facebook and are untagging themselves in pictures to be safe from college admission officers. But does this prevent posts from being viewed by them. We all know that once something is put on the internet it's impossible "Take it back".  Meaning don't put anything on the internet you might regret. So does erasing "Foot prints" on the internet mean the mentions are lost?

Impact on thinking of Social Media

After learning about how social media can affect my future negatively, it has made me think over what I'm posting before I do. Whether it is just a joke, not to be taken seriously, or something that isn't a positive representation of myself.

3D house


I made a 3D house using SketchUp. This was my first animation using the software, which was challenging but also fun. This was my last animation I will make in E-comm this year :(
