Extension Drones) 2023

 This term in extension we have been learning all about drones. In extension we had to create two projects of us defining our problem and thinking of a way to fix it by trying to ideate. Before I had to create my project I had to think of a problem that drones can help with. My problem that I had to fix was that a hospitable worker has to send medicine to their patience even if they’re tired or if they’re just too lazy to do it. To help me identify this problem, I was wanting Eve to help because we were both thought about the same idea. How we identified this problem was by using drones to send medicine to their patients so that they don’t need to waste there time getting up and sending medicine.

After we finished defining and ideating our problem we had to get into scratch and start turning our problem into  a scratch project showing us how we want to look like. In this project we had to create our problem coming to life so that Mrs Burton (our Extension teacher) can see our problem we chose so that she can mark our rubric and we can get 20 out of 20. My favourite thing about this scratch project was when I got to code, because in term 1 I was really bad at coding. Now i’m very good at coding like look at my project I did. If  you all are wondering what scratch is, scratch is an online app where you can create games or cool projects at your school like me.

For my final extension project what I had to do was a design on tinkercad or photopea of what my scratch project looked like.  My choice was tinkercad because it would be faster to do and it would be easier to do. In tinkercad I had to design a drone that had some medicine on top of it that was going to be sent to a hospital patient. As I was doing this project I thought that it was really easy to do because I just had to search up what I needed. Then I had to just drag it in then size what I wanted it to look, then there you go here’s how it turned out. The only thing I needed to hold my medcine was a contaner that was screwed into the drone. Remember to leave a positive comment on my blog, thank you.

 

 

 

 

My movie making role

Task Description: This term in extension we have been trying to create a movie based on ”All the places you’ll go”. For extension when we started to film all of our scenes, suddenly Cayden and others were confused, because we thought that we were supposed to get roles to film, but no one had any roles to do. That’s until all of us wanted to get our own roles. Then after a week or day Mrs Burton wanted to start getting all of us into roles that we would need to do. The roles that were there were really fun to do but we were not aloud to choose it was Mrs Burton that had to choose what was best for us. When everyone was done choosing we had to find out what we could be in, the roles I wanted to be was videographer and animator, but I became a videographer which was still really fun because I like filming with other people, but when I got my role I knew that I was really good at filming but when I got my role I never had to get turn because I didn’t feel like I and Sophia was really in the group. After that that everybody got to get there own role to take but Mrs Burton thought that some others had not roles so others still had to get roles which was still fun really fun. Remember to leave a positive comment on my blog, thank you.

Here was my favorite scene I filmed. The reson why I thought this scene looked cool becasue there was sentence that said, ”and feet in your shoes”. With that sentence Mrs Burton thought that it would be a great idea to do stop motion with a girl called Nadi making her shoes move to her feet useing stop motion. When I found out we could use stop motion I thought that it was going to be very diffecult because I only used stop motion maybe two years ago but used it to make my feet go to my shoes. My favorite part about this scene was how the shoes went perfectly into her feet. If you would like to see it here down below.

What did you like about your role? ”The thing I liked most about my role was when we could film different parts of the movie and as well as trying new things to defect in extension”.

Did you like your role and why? ”I loved my role so much because I wanted to learn more about videographer and how to film right and not wrong, but I know that i’m not always perfect”.

What did you find challenging with your role? ”I found communicating challenging the most because as we film I sometimes want to talk to my group and others but while I try to tell my great ideas my group never go with my plan so that’s why I will still try my best telling others my awesome ideas in my role”. 

Is your role important for our movie? ”I think that my filming role is really important because if we don’t film anything then there will be no film festival movie from extension that will be showed”.

What did you learn in your role? ”While I was with my videogragher group I learnt  how to record zoomed in and out correctly and lisen to others in my group well”.

What do you know now that you didn’t know before? ”That when you record you have to use a try pod to help make the camra stay straight before filming”.

5&6 Extension story board

Task Description: This week in extension we have been trying to create our film festivile movie. In extension we have been creating diffternt kind of sheets that help us with out planning, just like my other extension task I blog which was called 5&6 extension spreadsheet. For this sheet we wanted to plan our movie so that we all know what we will be needing to film and act. The reason why we had to create a story board was because we wanted to figure out what we had to film while they were acting. While we were planning this story board I thought that it was a great plan to do this becasue the videogragh’s might forget we part to film. so that’s why and how we create this story board.

5&6 Extension spreadsheet

Task Description: This term for year five and six extension we have been creating a spreadsheet for our film festival movie. In extension we were wanting to first think of what movie we wanted to choose for our movie. When we had to start trying to choose our movie, others wanted to do life as a GI, shadow bock, but my movie that I wanted to do was also a great choice but I thought that it would be great to do Dr Seus. Then that’s when the whole extension wanted to create a spreadsheet for us to see if we can have different roles to do and how we could communicate to each other, on that day I wasn’t their but I know that because I was chosen to became a videographer and I know that because when I came to extension the next day I started to understand and thought it was an great idea.

Maramataka/on scratch

Task Description: Last term in extension we have been learning all about the maramataka. For this scratch project we had to try code to make our maramataka calendar code right. When I found out that we were going to be learning about the maramataka I thought that I was not going to finish but then when I finally learned and read about it I started to learn more and knew more interesting things.
