The purpose of this website is to present the work I have done on the Profile Project.
The Profile Project is based around a 5 page profile we wrote about a member of our community who has had a significant impact. To write our profile we interviewed our profile star, two other people, and did research into an issue related to our star.
In our Design class, we used InDesign to create a professional magazine layout, and Google Presentations to create a presentation about our experience. In Web/Audio, we used AfterEffects to make 30 second commercials to interest people in our stars, and DreamWeaver and jQuery to design websites to host all of our content.
The subject of my Profile is Michael Schuh, a robotics mentor involved with many different youth programs, including FIRST Lego League, Botball, and FIRST Robotics Competition
This project was challenging on multiple levels. Not only did I as a first year senior have to learn a significant amount of new technology, we also had to keep track of all the different parts of the project being worked on simultaneously, while at the same time making sure everything stayed visually consistent.
This commercial was produced using Adobe AfterEffects. To move around the parts of my commercial, and create the illusion of depth, I laid out all my text in 3D space then used a camera with depth of field enabled to move between different sections. The movement of individual words or pictures was done by hand or by using animators.
