Week 7

Things are still setting in the website is still on progress, its not that easy to complete a website. Took time to find the right layout and background because of the fact that I personally don't like the way it looked before. My team and I, especially me, are busy, so I have not got the chance to talk to them lately about the topic. IT will come soon, just need to find the right time and I kind of want, no I want, to make it big and mysterious. Just to make things more fun! I mean why not, its always good to try something new. Our instagram account is going pretty well and so is our vine. SO follow, follow, FOLLOW! We really do love getting support from others and its very cool. As of right now we have something big for our final project, I know it will turn out great! Hopefully others will think so too, stay tune for that "something big". Take a guess of what it is going to be!

Week 6

This week me and my group members have not been updating instagram and the website. We have decide to split the work out evenly. We decided that I will be in charge of the website and Gino will be in charge with the instagram account and Patrick will be in charge of the vine account. We did this so that everyone will know what they are doing rather than asking or just sitting down doing nothing. It is easier this way since we are all very busy around this semester. This helps us worry about one thing than worrying about the websites. We will still be doing weekly topics or even monthly ones, that is yet to come. Overall, this project has been going through smoothly, we are still preparing for the final presentation. Stay tune on how we will do on that!!! This was us the whole week !

Week 4

This weeks topic is buttons! Buttons are very useful in clothing, it is an essiantial in fashion. Buttonholes were not invented until the 13th century. Did you know that there were different names for buttons? Buttons were involve in mainly men's fashion, they used them for their coats and collars of their shirts. Buttons are actually made from natural products, but they required more work than plastic buttons. They are made in a long process to get the wanted shape, size, design, and color.

Week 3

Topic this week is sweet and satisfying. Yup the topic is chocolate! We don't only get it for free on Halloween but it is in probably every store. Chocolates have a certain taste that makes people addicted to them. The word "chocolate" came from Mexico and Central America. Chocolate commonly comes in dark, milk and white. Dark chocolate somewhat has a sweet and bitter taste to them. Milk chocolate is usually sweet and popular ones are Hershey's chocolate. White chocolate in my opinion is the sweetest out of the three. Chocolate comes in different ways, they can be eaten or drank. In Europe, it was fashionable to drink chocolate. Though chocolate comes form a plant, its not necessarily good for the body. Chocolates have a lot of calories, fat, and especially sugar. They are filled with sugar and sodium. It maybe bad but it is very hard to resist. Picture below is one of my favorite chocolates: Snickers

Week 2



This week's topic is SPIDER WEBS! Nasty, creepy, yet fascinating to see. It is the creepiest thing that is ever out there. That is why I left the lens to one of my partners, I'm sure they will be much braver than me. Its pretty crazy how the pictures turned out to be it seemed so unreal. All the little things that appear that us humans are afraid to see up close. Did you know, spider webs are created to catch a prey such as flies and other insects. They use this device to catch their food and for their home. Spider webs are a bit creepy but they are so cool to look at. Also spider webs are pretty stable, when hosed down with water it will not come out. My father tried so many times and still does not work. The picture below is found on https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=5&cad=rja&ved=0CE8QFjAE&url=http%3A%2F%2Fkids.nationalgeographic.com%2Fkids%2Fphotos%2Fgallery%2Fspider-webs%2F&ei=EIH9UuWpBeaHygHh-oE4&usg=AFQjCNEYDvrtPnXE9iP1ubKm5YEHKSf1ng&sig2=gmIDsczhBIkHYuAZjqVBrg ,they have interesting information about these creatures. check it out!!

Week 1

This weeks topics is money !! Yes, it may be a bit random, but it is very interesting. I mean we never see the real appearance of our money. NOT only coins but paper money, close up they have so much color pigment in them. Obviously my partners and I are running out of ideas but we are still working on it. It is not that easy to think of a good topic. Next weeks topic may be a bit creepy though, well at least for me. That is why I passed on the lens to Gino. I just can't handle that kind of topic. Any takers of what it will be? Well keep following us on instagram, we sincerely appreciate our audience. Maybe we might do a tutorial on how to take a good picture on a camera and even upgrade to a professional lens. We just need to keep focus and determine and get people's attention. Picture : by Gino

Week 8

This week we did not have a topic because research needed to be done. Not that my team is not familiar with the things we are doing, but to learn a little bit more about the lens and the techniques that are needed was necessary to have a good photo. The research I have done was about how to take photos with the macro lens professionally with a phone camera. I wanted to see if there was different ways to take the picture and the different angles I can take the object with. It was not a hard thing to learn but it took time to actually get the right position and angle. The hardest part was to find the right source to learn from. I learned that you should be at least 4 inches away from the object, so that the camera will focus the right way and will not have any glitches. Another thing is that should focus on the little details of the object so when the picture is taken it will be more "catching to the eye." The weirder it looks the better the picture looks.
