What is dream weaver?????????

• Dreamweaver is a web design tool created by Adobe in 1997. It allows users to design, code and manage websites, as well as mobile content. 

What do we need/want in a website??????

• Pictures & visually appealing colors

Why are the Elements and Principles of Design necessary for Web Designers? 

• The elements and principles of Design are necessary for web designers because it makes everything come together harmonious instead of one part of the design because excellent and the other part of the design is mediocre. Knowing the elements are principles of design can help web definers communicate their message better.

Adobe Premiere

• Timeline-based video editing tool
• You can upload pictures, videos, add text, etc.

Adobe Premiere vs Adobe Audition

• The two are similar because they are both set up in a timeline based style, you can edit layers individually 

Video Production 

• The angle the scene is shot at can heavily influence the mood of the video. 
• Lighting in the scene is very important because you do not want your scene to be too lit or under lit.

 How different camera angles influence the mood and genre of a video?

• Low angle - shooting a character at a low angle makes them seem bigger than life, important, confident, can even portray them as a bully
• High angle - shooting a character at a high angle, slightly above eye level, makes a character appear harmless, innocent, or subordinate to another character 
• POV - Shooting from a characters personal POV can alter how the audience interprets the situation because they can put themselves in that situation
• Eye level - shooting a character at eye level makes the audience feel more connected to the character, it is a more personal angle

3 Professionals who I might interview

• Rose Moore - former probation officer & currently works in victim services
• Daniel Melendez - current a bail comissioner
• Marc Ramia - current attorney
