Yearbook Sparkle

Make a Yearbook Advertisement and then make it sparkle.

FIRST using GIMP put together a collage of yearbook words and images.

Images located here: X:/Media/2010-2011/yearbook_ad


Use the GIMP tools:
Scale,
Move,
Rotate,
Perspective - to stretch the angles like I did, or you have the freedom to create it however you like.


Put at least 3-4 yearbook pages or parts of the pages into your advertisement.








NEXT: put together the glittering / sparkling effects using this website.

Read this articlehttp://entertainment.howstuffworks.com/auto-tune.htm




Do it yourself: http://slothtoss.com/projects/flash_auto-tuner/


Talking doesn't sound as good to auto-tune, consider trying to sing so that the notes get stretched out.

Voice Forge - Text to Speech

http://www.voiceforge.com/demo

Try out several voices, say various things, find how long of a sentence / paragraph you can say for free on this site.

http://translate.google.com/# - Try using the different languages and translate something in that voice's language to speak in that language. (preferably something you might recognize or understand).

DO NOT TYPE PROFANITY, obviously you are at school and the code of conduct will still apply even if you type it instead of speak it.

Then after several minutes of understanding how this text to speech voices work, try out this.

Create your own with the picture of you from picture day, or if you do not want to you can create one from a teacher.

Mother's Day Resources Website

Today we will be collaborating in making a single page website of Mother's Day Resources for students.

https://docs.google.com Mothers Day Resources

I already put example content on the site, now it's your assignment to put in more and better content.

Research (go find) more websites that have to do with mothers day, more websites that provide Ecards / Flowers / maps to local flower / gift shops, etc.

Build them into this page with pictures, links, information etc.

Everyone is working TOGETHER, so be considerate and DO NOT DELETE others work.

If you are caught being mischievous, messing with others work or not doing your part, you will have to build your OWN page all by yourself, which will take time and you will likely not have as much free time later.
