30 sec film challenge

Hi Guys
Recently in class we have been making a small 30 second film in a group.
In my group there was Chris, Benjamen, lincoln, and I.
Our video is about a student who snuck into the learning commons on a fine day. Here is my film


What was our film about?  Our film was about a junior who was trying to sneak into the learning commons.
Something I enjoyed in making my film... I enjoyed getting to film some of the scenes.
Something I learned when making my film... I learned about were to be for us to get the full effect of the scene.
Some film techniques I included were... Panning, long shots, high tilt, and low angle shots.
Something I found challenging was trying to help with the transportation of the files.
What I would do differently next time... I would film some of the scenes differently.

Hope you like our film.

BST Innovation Challenge

HI!
Guy recently in class we have been trying to get a product and fix a issue it may have or how we would make it better:
  1. Rubber band:
Rubber Band Best Quality In The Market! - Buy Rainbow Rubber Bands ...
  1. What it is: this is a rubber band
How you use it: How you use it is by wrapping it around an object to hold things together
What I don’t like about it: It’s not strong enough it would be good if it could stretch more.


  1. It would be cool if there was a rubber band that could hold certain items e.g. one for food etc.


  1. Positive things about this product: It is good for holding things for you in groups.


  1. Anything to add to make the product better: I would make it stronger stretcher and
  2. bigger for more or different items.


  1. I would make it bigger and have colors corresponding to each size.


  1. No, because it would lose what it is.

8.

  1. To make bigger:  negative: it may be too big for their job.  Positive: It is good for bigger items 
  2. To make different colors: negative people who are colorblind can’t tell the colors. Positive they use the right color for the right product

BST - Entrepreneur Research

Lately we did research on an entrepreneur in business studies. I choose Mark Zuckerberg
Here is my work:

Image result for mark zuckerberg

Mark Zuckerberg has been through multiple ups and downs through his years making Facebook
and had struggles and successes even as early as high school and college.
While in his early years of school he had shown interest in computer software and coding,
because of this his parents decided to go out and get him a tutor to teach him more on this
topic that he seems so intrigued by. Later on, in his schooling years, he decided to make his
first piece of software. This music software went by the name of the synapse because of this
he had multiple offers of people wanting to buy this software or even hire Mark even before he
graduated but he declined the offers. Later he studied at Philips Exter Acadamy, he got into
fencing and even became the captain of the team. He left with a diploma in classics.
When it was time to choose his college he chooses to go to Harvard University in his
sophomore year he had to gain a reputation for making apps and sites after he made
CourseMatch with help students pick the course based on what other people are choosing.
He also made Facematch were two photos of people on the campus are chosen and people
vote who they think is better, this was later deemed inappropriate and taken down. As a result
of this three of his fellow students asked him to help on an app called Harvard connection where
students can communicate with others around the campus. Mark dropped this task and made
his own connection app on his own while his fellow students were working on Harvard connection.
Mark decided to call his app “The Facebook” which was a quick success and more people were
installing the app every day. Over time people started to ask him to change the name to something
better so he slightly changed the name to “Facebook” and it hasn’t changed since. At the end of
his sophomore year, he dropped out of school to continue working on his application full time and
to try and make a living from its successes.


As you have seen already Mark has heaps of success even while in school but as he got
older he has had more and more success.
After he dropped out of school he had gained more traction and in 2004 he had reached
a huge milestone of one million downloads and had people wanting to invest in his company
and gave 12.7 million dollars a year and even higher even though the app was based for and
only available to ivy league school students.  At the end of 2005 Facebook was available to
students everywhere and had now hit 5.5 million users. Since then it has been open for anyone
over the age of 13 to use and in 2019 reach all-time high active users with an average of 1.62
Billion users a day 2.45 Billion users monthly. Zuckerberg owns 60% of the company’s voting
rights. Zuckerberg also has a net worth of $78 billion and is a known person worldwide.

Pita Pockets - Home ec

Pita pockets.
The other day in home ec we made pita pockets.
What I put in mine/ingredient:
-lettuce
-sweet chili sauce
-ham
-tomato
-carrot
-cheese
-Pita bread

How to make a pita pocket:
-slice open a small pocket in your pita bread (big enough to put your ingredients in).
-slice your ingredients into cubes or any shape/size you want before you put your meal together.
-Put your wanted ingredients into your pita pocket.
-Enjoy.

Opinion/how to improve:
I thought that my pita pocket was a bit dry and is missing something that would make it more edible.
To make it better next time I would probably put more sauce in to make it more wet and not as dry.
