This wasn't very hard I'm use to making commercials now they're still very fun and uses a lot of creative thinking so that your commercial will be unique. Even still, when trying to be unique you must use your math still in making these commercials because you have to get the timing down. In this commercials we only have a 60 second period so we have to adjust the slides and when we make the pictures move. So it's still very complicated. LOVE HAMILTON ABSOLUTELY!!!!!!!!!!

UpRoar: The Wildcat News 4/28/10

This video was created by me, Alvertis London. In order to do any of this, I started off by stopping by the office to get the annoucements. After that, I used "iMovie" to update all the current annoucements. Once I did that, I uploaded it to "iDVD" and burned it to a blank dvd. After all this was finished I took it to the library so it will be broadcasted.

Studio Time: Makin' Happy


This entry was posted by Mr. Anderson.


Way to go Alvertis, Robert and Thurston!


The work these young men did, helped us put this project to rest. I think their rap is bangin' and this is an awesome opportunity for the young people to synthesize their individual likes with class instruction and production.


We need jurors for the THINK Show!!! April 29, 2010. Please contact us for more information.

Wow!!!! In this commercial I did take part in this commercial and when I say I took I part a big part Mr. Anderson was on me like white on rice about it. He was always telling me that he couldn't understand the words and he didn't like that transition and it was very tiring but, it was worth it in the long run. Alvertis and Robert did excellent in the song that's on the commercial I  had someone to go in and take pictures of them and pretty good one's at that! We're getting closer to the GRAND OPENING OF MAKIN' HAPPY inside HAMILTON PLACE MALL now you're getting closer to seeing the MAGIC OF HAMILTON HIGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Makin' Happy Media & Technology-Audio Recording and Mixing (Studio Time)

This entry was posted by Mr. Anderson.

I was a little concerned that the students would come together and follow through on their ideas...so, I decided to write my own rhyme...and use it as some motivation. Well, without even hearing what I came up with, when we got to class. They were eager to make it happen. This mande me extremely proud. So, I'm going to post my rhyme for studio time and then I'll post theirs. So, when I make the entry I will shout out some of the students who woked strong to make it happen.

Makin' Happy Order/Service Form




This entry was created by Anthony Hayes, II.

Edited (Anderson has attached the revised order form.)

I had a new experience putting this clipart together on our THINKSHOW order form. I learned how to utilize clip art on my paper and advertise at the same time. I know what to do the next time when I am told to something like this, again. This is a pretty good advertisment even though its on an order form. I used Microsoft Word to enhance the form Mr. Anderson and the MW2 class developed. This is what I learned and made in Media Concepts class, today. I also learned how to blog on blogspot.

Hamilton High 2010 Senior Luncheon

This entry was posted by Matarius Houston.

I have worked on exporting slideshows to the Hamilton High Media Concepts blog spot it was realy easy to do when you get the hang of it. You just might see people you know or see people you would like to meet. I have had classmates to put the slideshow on imovie and put it on itunes and I uploaded it on the Hamiltons blog spot page. Its a realy good slideshow so go ahead and take a look at some of the class of 2010 and leave a comment to show us what do you think about the Class of 2010 slideshow.

Good work Akhia, Alvertis, Sybil, and my MW2 class period for having this idea. Thanks for helping me pull it out your heads, get it on paper and actively participating and negotiating the process as we strived towards this final creation.

UpRoar: The Wildcat News (Streaming) 040610

This entry was posted by Mr. Anderson.

I want to send a special thanks out to Malynda Hull and Sharra Dent. Sharra collected the announcements this morning and Malynda worked strong the entire class period with minimal breaks to get the text ready for us to import into iMovie. My goal is to encourage the students and communicate the wonderful service this provides to the school and get this done everyday as we strive towards a 5 to 10 minute student produced newscast. Please comment and encourage the students as they are apart of the possibilities as we aim to Connect the Pieces Through Redesign.
