Superhero

     The three life-altering experiences in an origin story are trauma, destiny, and chance. Trauma occurs emotionally or physically. Spider-man experienced trauma because his uncle was killed by a robber. Destiny is the idea that someone was born for a purpose. Ender Wiggin's destiny was to destroy the alien race and restore it. Finally, it's just chance that a random event happens to influence heroism. It was just chance that Megamind came to Earth.
     The basis of my origin story is chance. At 6 PM my friend called me saying,"Dude, I've been invited to go to this sweet convention where they are going to introduce a new machine that will perform the impossible and they said I could bring one other person. You coming?" "Heck yeah. Where do I meet you?" "At the King Center in three hours." "I'll be there!" "Welcome ladies and gentlemen to the most extraordinary night of your lives!" He shows the machine and everyone yells and screams. Then he says a bunch of scientific stuff with big words, so I just tuned out. "Alright, is someone brave enough to test this out!" Everyone is screaming so loud, I swear there was blood oozing out of my ears. "Everyone put your name on the piece of paper located under your seat and write your name. " Dude there's no point in filling this out, there has to be at least 10,000 people here, I say." "Then you have a 1/10,000 chance, said my friend." I write my name on a piece of paper and then I hear the host say,"Now for the drawing." He chose one piece of paper and he read it aloud saying,"The winner of the drawing is...Zachary Carter!" I'm petrified with shock. I see my friend move his mouth but I couldn't hear him over everyone's screams. I walk up there and I get into the machine. Then everything went dark. Next thing I know, the door opens and I get out. The whole building is gone! There are mass amounts of dead bodies. I ran, but with surprising speed to my friend. He is barely breathing so I concentrate on healing him. I hear his breath coming back and his ribs pushing up. Then he starts flying! Then I try obtaining water with my mind. It worked! I also made fire, rocks, and I could use the air around me. I had elemental powers, too! I have finally harnessed my chi. We both flied out of the building and talked about how we were going to use these powers. He told me, " Everyone will call me the Cold Assassin. I'm going to use these powers to make everyone bow before me. Are you with me or against me?" "I guess I'm against you." Then he fled. It was on that day I knew I had to stop him because I am the Thesis Statement!

Google Doodle

My doodle is about ending greed. The man fishing for money in the "G" represents man's endless struggle for money. The two gold coins are from a Christmas Carol when Ebenezer Scrooge put the coins over his eyes. The money sign represents money. The candle is also from a Christmas Carol. Finally, the "E" is money on fire.

Ad Replication




















     The one on the left is the original while the one on the right is the replication. The tools I used were the bucket tool, quick selection tool, text tool, lasso tool, polygonal lasso tool, magnetic lasso tool, pen tool, brush tool, the magic wand tool, and the ellipse tool. This ad was challenging at times because I had to fix all the pen tool mistakes I had made and I also spent about half a period trying to make the logo look like the original but that didn't work out as planned so I did what I could.. It also took me a while to get the text as close as possible to the original ,as well as, the facial features.

Pen Tool


     My character's name is Safety Torch. He was crafted by the Enchanted Lumberjack in Safetown. He only has one purpose in his life and that is to protect. Some might call him the Phoenix because when his light goes out, he lights himself back up and he is reborn from the charcoal. There is no darkness that can overpower him, no room he can't shed light, no monster he can't keep away. If you have a problem, and no other torch can help, and if you can find him, maybe you can hire Safety Torch.
     The hardest part of the pen tool was having to convert each shape into a layer.
