Tipu video

For Cybersmart we were tasked with making a video showing some maori words and also using a voice changer. I decided to make mine about the aftermath of a nuclear war/explosion in china. When I started the video, I didn't realise it had to have maori words in it, so sorry for the change of scene at the start. I found it fun to use all the voice changers and test to see what was the best one for my video. I found it hard to get the right voice as well. Here is my video, please leave a comment

My Intro

In LH3 we were told to make a 5 second video to put in front of our wevideos, and I tried to make mine look as stupid and funny as possible. I really enjoyed doing this task and it was really fun to put together and get all the sounds and combine it with the video. Next time I think I should try and sync the video and sound better. Please leave a comment. Here is my video:

Piskel Cybersmart task!

Last Cybersmart session we were introduced to a website called piskel in which you can create animated characters out of pixels. I really enjoyed doing this and I made heaps of different characters. I found this really quite easy and fun to do but I think I could have put more detail into my design.  I have put in pictures of my brown wolf, my celebration kiwi, and my sad kiwi. Here is a link to piskel here if you want to try it for yourself: Piskel. Please leave a comment on my work.

Cybersmart Copyright challenge!

In one of our cybersmart sessions we were assigned this challenge to fill out a template of our self using images that had to be labeled for reuse with modification. I found it hard to source the images from the internet and thinking of what to put in the boxes. But apart from that I thought it was quite easy to do. I even found images for everything and I could use all of them as well! Please leave a comment on my work.

Lockdown free write!

In the lockdown while learning at home we did a free write about the lockdown and how we think of it. I found it hard to put all of the points together. This is my piece of writing: please leave a comment.

The lockdown. It's stripped us of our freedom by keeping us in our neighbourhood at all times. However, it’s for our own good. New Zealand has eliminated the virus. It's working. Unsurprisingly, cases have dropped since the start of the lockdown. It IS working. This isn't all for nothing. We have successfully eliminated community transmission in New Zealand according to David Clark and Jacinda Ardern. So far, it has been the best possible outcome that could have happened to NZ.

 I think that Jacinda Ardern has handled this crisis very, very well. She has led us through these unprecedented times very well and even my mum- who is a national supporter- thinks so too. If we hold together and listen to the experts, we can get through this. I know we can. New Zealand is setting an example to other countries, by managing to win the battle against Covid-19. But we still have not won the war. That's a long way off, but we'll get there. Recently, we moved into level two. We have been steadily moving down levels and soon we might be in level one.

 It IS working. This isn't all for nothing. By listening to the experts and the government, we have successfully eliminated covid-19 from New Zealand for now, and before we know it, we could be back in glorious level two. kia kaha New Zealand.

My covid reflection video!!!!!

This week at home one of my tasks for home learning was to make a WeVideo on the things we like about the lockdown and then the bad stuff about the lockdown. I made mine into a video call of four people, but the four people are just me. The hard thing was to edit and sync the videos together. I made so many videos and only used four. Overall, this task was really fun even if it took me a whole two hours to film, edit, and export. I am very happy about the finished product. Please leave a comment!

ANZAC presentation slideshow!

In Hub Mako we have been doing slideshows on the Gallipoli campaign and the ANZAC soldiers that went. I already have quite a reasonable knowledge of the campaign so it was really fun for me. Unfortunately, me and my family missed the thing at 6.00 in the morning were we stood at our letterboxes, but I did stick a poppy and a sign on our letterbox.  Here is my slideshow, I hope you like it.
