Work Diary 22/10/07

Today we started Sketchup again, and i moved on to the second video tutorial. I learned how to make a cube, how to make a circle, a triangle, a rectangle. I also learned how to make a curve on the edges of rectangles and cubes. I learned how to make for example a circle or triangle.... in 3d. I also learned how to move around on the screen.

But there is a lot to learn!

Sketchup Tutorial 18/10/07

Today we first watched a tutorial video about how to use sketchup, but I didnt manage to finish watching all the tutorials are very slow, i didnt manage to watch the whole of the first one! So i just moved on and did what i saw on the tutorial. It wasnt hard and i really thought sketchup is fascinating! You can make a house and then use this tool to look anywhere you like, you can look under the house you can look above it, around...... and you can also make a drawer, or at least thats what it looks like.
I still dont know what i want but i think i want something unusual.

Poster 11/10/07

Today we made a poster in Stone Cold, which is a book written by the author Robert Swindells. We are reading it in English lessons which we are half way through. Its quite a good book about Link, this teen that runs away from home because Vince his stepfather hates him and beats him up bad. So hes alone, not much money, no home, no parent to say your doing very well with living on your own and no job.

So he starts off by getting some money from his older sister which is going pretty well indeed. So he sets foot of his city to London and starts to live his miserable life....

After that he meets Ginger, another homeless mate who is much older than Link. They start to work together and try to earn some money.

Then there is Shelter, he hates homeless people and has a plan to wipe off all of them away. And he will come to them as ginger disappears.

Link then meets a girl older than him and they try and work together like before,

but that's when i stopped reading!

I really liked making the Poster and it was hard because its not really happy Poster with lots of colours, its more dark and mysterious!

Today we had another test, an excell test. It was a bit confusing but I managed it. Im almost finished with it, i only had to do one little thing on the tutorial. After i finished i was supposed to have a word test, but i guess i wasnt quick enough.

Work Diary 01/10/07

Today I finished the excell tutorials, and I thought the last tutorial was the hardest. I found it very boring, and easy.... (hard on the last one, 3rd tutorial).
I started on Sketchup and I have to watch about 5 videos about it and im only on half of the first video. So Im not going far but Im one of the 5th in the class that has started in Sketchup. I think, I still dont know, but by the looks of it, it is very complicated, but I guess i will get used to it (I hope).
