Rain's I Have a Dream Presentation

http://www.fotopedia.com/items/flickr-1415835342

I'm totally not late
1. The big message of the speech was racial equality; that beneath everyone's skin, no matter what colour, everyone was made equal, and should be treated so. Everyone deserves to be accepted, respected, and given rights and freedoms.
The slide/part of the speech that I found really important was "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin but by the content of their character." because imagining four small, innocent children that have hopes to one day be accepted for what they hold inside, rather than be judged by their race, touched me. These children of his represent the future, and represent hope to him as a father.
2. I played with the size, colours, spacing between letters, spacing between lines, and tried all sorts of creative ways to place words to make my slides look interesting.
3. Since I plan to become an artist in the future, I'll definitely be using fonts creatively to create art that will, I hope, have impacting messages with eye catching typography. Also to use for school projects.
4. The most difficult part for me was that it was just so tedious having to put in the words to the ENTIRE speech and fix them up slide after slide after slide. 
5. If I remember, I just went to file, save & send, and had it converted into a video. I had the help of people around, but you can't always rely on others. When in doubt, google it.
6. I would change this assignment by making some slides more unique and bold. I felt like at some point the slides got really repetitive and dull.

Katie's I have a dream: Martin Luther King Jr.

http://rolexblog.blogspot.ca/2009/01/martin-luther-king-jr-day-in-usa.html

1. The message in Martin Luther King's speech was that everyone has freedom and that everyone is equal and that they should not judged by their skin but by personality. I think the slide which was the most important to me was "From every mountainside, let freedom ring" because it shows how they will finally get their freedom and show the world the difference it can make for the better.

2. The creative fonts that I presented were from the 5 tips of typography including the choice of font, spacing of the lines, different colors, contrast and sizing. Also making sure that the important words were very noticeable.

3. I will use the fonts creatively in the future for assignments involving powerpoints, or for just graphic work.

 4. The most difficult part was the audio because i tried over 3 times redoing the audio until it finally worked.

5. To convert a PPT to a WMV simply save it but instead of JPEG save it as WMV.

6. I wouldn't really change anything because it was quite fun creating the fonts and different styles, probably just do a shorter speech next time.

Jessica Hartogs I Have a Dream Presentation

Reflection

1. What is the Message in MLK's speech.  Which slide of the many that you created was most important to you?

 On August 28, 1963, MLK gave a speech about freedom and equality. He gave a speech about how everyone is the same on the inside and its wrong to be judged my the colour of your skin. You should  be judged on your character not on your race. 

2.  What are the creative uses of fonts in your presentation?

I used alot of different types of fonts in my presentation. I used colours and text size to emphasize the most important words, I also used the more and less spaced letters for less important words and/or to make the the slide have a more interesting look to it., and many other things.

3.  How will you use fonts creatively in the future?

For all the future powerpoints and presentations I do i will use fonts to my advantage instead of them just being there to make sure everyone understands and is following along. I will use them to keep the audiance engaged in my presentation.

4.  What was the most difficult part of this process of making a movie from PPT?
The most difficult part for me was finding time to finish it because whenever I was not playing sports I was always on the phone with my grandpa in the hospital so between my 6 practices a week and m grandpa it was very difficult to find time.

5.  Create a user guide for future students.  How did you end up converting a PPT of WMV?
To change my Powepoint to a Windows Movie whatever I had went to Save as and it gave you things you could save the power point as I went down to WMV and I left it over night to render the over and the next day, it was saved in my U drive.

6.  How would you change this assignment next year?
If i could change this assignment for next year, I would pick a shorter speech.
but if you wanted to use the MLK speech again, either make it a partner assignment or give the kids a longer time to finish the speech.

Jaedah Coronia - Uzon's Martin Luther King Speech Jr. I Have Dream Speech

Reflection

1. The message in Martin Luther Kings speech is about all people are equal and have rights in America. Martin Luther Kings believes that segregation, prejudice, racism etc. should come to an end. It was his dream along with the other peoples dream. 

- The most important slide to me was when he said "Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice."

2. The creative fonts that I used was the ones that match to what he was saying and also the colour to make the words interesting. Overall I think I did well on the presentation.

3. I am going to continue to use more creative fonts in my presentations so it would make my future power points  less boring and more interesting.

4. The most difficult part while doing this presentation is putting the audio in and to make it right on to what he was saying. Also, the most difficult part is that he had a very long speech and I had exactly 105 slides for making his speech.

5. How I ended up converting my power point to a wmv is I got help by my friends. The steps to get a ppt to a wmv is you go to insert audio and get your file, then once its there you go and save it as a wmv.

6. I wouldn't want to change my presentation because I put a lot of effort into it and I really liked the way it turned out.

-No Sound


Reflection:

1. The message in MLK's speech is to make freedom and justice a reality, to stop all racism that's happening in this world, and to believe and dream that one day everyone will be free, everyone will get the freedom they deserve. Of the many slides that I have created, the one I think is the most important is when MLK is explaining his dreams and then he says that with this faith, they can work together, pray together, struggle together, jail together, freedom together, and hopefully one day, to be FREE.

2. The creative uses of font that I did in my presentation was I used the 5 tips for better typography which is to changing the font, change the text size when needed, text contrast for example, making some words bold, also changed character and line spacing and the text color.

3. I will use fonts creatively in the future if I may have to do another presentation or an assignment similar to this one.

4. The most difficult part was actually reading the information I had in each slide and either changing the font of words, bolding words that I thought were important, or changing the color of words. Took me at least a month to finish.

5. I converted a PPT into a WMV file by going into powerpoint, clicking "file" which is at the top, going down to "save&send", then "create a movie", and then clicked "create."

6. I might've just choosen a smaller speech so it wouldn't take as long as it took us to finish, but otherwise, it was a good project.

Joel Bautista's Martin Luther King Jr. I Have a Dream Speech

The message in Martin Luther King's speech was that he wanted the black people to be free, to be equal, for everyone to be equal. He's had enough of the unfair treatment that was committed. his speech explains how everyone should all be equal no matter what. He has a dream that all black boys and girls and all white boys and girls would play with each other in peace, without being judged. He's motivated many people to understand what racism is and how it's affecting his people. Slide five was the most important to me because it explains how a black man has suffered and possibly not have a future in life. The creative uses of fonts I used was size, color, contrast, spacing, and text. In the future I will be starting a future in business course so i will be using power point and fonts very often. this presentation gave me a feel of what it'll be like for me next year. The most difficult part for me was organizing my words and fonts for each of my 75 slides, it took a while to complete it. The fonts and color gave me somewhat of trouble because I wanted to make it look good. I personally would just get the speech and put it all into my slides, and organize them. That way it'll make your life easier. Also make sure you use your spacing wisely and also your fonts. First you'll have to record yourself clicking each slide as Martin speaks, once that is done you convert it into a wmv file in power point. Once that is completed all you have to do is upload it onto Youtube. I liked the topic that we had to do this year but the only thing I'd change is the program that we used and also how long the presentation has to be.

Alyssa's MLK Speech Presentation

MLK's speech wasn't just about racial segregation, it was about the good ol' country of USA as well. MLK talks about the different states and how THEY should change, as well as the people. My favorite slides to do  were, actually, the ones ABOUT the states, and letting freedom ring. He kept talking about how even through the mountains and valleys and hilltops that freedom should ring all throughout all of the states.
The creative uses of the fonts were the sizes, fonts, colour, contrast, and spacing.
In the future, I plan to do something along the lines of film or graphic design, so I plan to use design or font very often.
The most difficult part of this project was the fact that you had to lug in the words and separate the words and then the amount of work you had to do for each slide.
For this, you had to just pull in the words, and play around with it. It wasn't hard, but just tedious. And then you had to insert the speech itself, while recording or setting the slide transitions. Afterwards, you had to save as a movie, or so it was called on the Mac's, and upload it all onto Youtube.
The only thing I would change wouldn't be the project itself, but the program we used to do this. I'd much rather like an in-depth program.

Roselle's I have dream -Martin Luther King

The message in MLK's speech is that we are all free in this world and no one deserves to be treated poorly becuase we were all born equal... The most important slide to me was probably the 6th slide because the message was really nice and i like how i set up the fonts and layouts.

2. the creative uses of fonts was putting effects into them and where to place them and actually figuring out what font looks good with the others...

3.I think in the future I will always now know how to use nice fonts and make a good presentation because this assignment helped a lot with it and let me explored new things with it.

4.The most difficult was timing the audio in with the slides because it took me long to do that part but as soon as i was done the rest were easy

5.firstly you save your powerpoint into a Jpeg then there's going to be a window that pops up and click everyslide.. After open a windows movie maker and upload your audio and your pictures (powerpoint slides) the slides are all pictures now and this will allow you to put them in seperately. Then just time it and save... :)

6. I dont actually know what to change but it took a really long time to do, so maybe a shorter speech but overall it was nice to explore on learning how to create a good presentation..
