At my GT program we have a project where we are writing a comedic paragraph. A sense of humor an important character trait because it would make the comedic writing project easier.It is also important because it can make someone happy when they are sad. It is important because it can make you a fun person to hang out with. The last reason that a sense of humor is an important character trait because it can make life better.

In this paragraph I am going to tell you five tips on writing a humorous narrative. The first tip I have for you is that when you are trying to come up with your joke you can take something from your daily life and make it funny. The second step I have for you is you can make it funny with voice inflictions or funny faces. The third tip is when writing your humorous narrative is to make it directly for the audience. The fourth tip for you when writing your humorous narrative is what you are doing when you're saying you're joke plays a role in if people will laugh or not. The fifth tip is that you can be sarcastic about things to make them funny.

My comedic monologue is funny because it is being sarcastic on how great school is. It is also funny because at the end it is saying that if I never had a break from school I wouldn't make it trough the week. My joke also has a part where I say the work follows you home from school (homework) and the work is on a skateboard. This was not my first idea but my teacher told us how being sarcastic can be funny. If you could see my visuals I think it would be little funnier.

Motivational Poster

In the Gifted and Talented [GT] at my school we are making Motivational posters and here are some of the requirements. We need to have two text layers, one with our Personal Quotes and on with our Manifesto.We also need to put 3 symbolic images and 1 portrait. That's just the layer requirements, we also have design requirements  Our design requirements are kerning,a triadic color scheme, we need visual balance, a blending option for our text layers, and adjustment layers for our images.

This paragraph is going to have the steps of me making my Motivational poster. The first step in  making my Motivational poster was writing the text that would be in my poster. The next step was copy and pasting my personal quotes and manifesto in a Photoshop document.Next I put my personal symbols into a folder in finder. Lastly I dragged the photos into Photoshop and arranged them to achieve visual balance.

The biggest challenge in making my Motivational poster was kerning.It was very frustrating,hard,and time consuming. I can improve on kerning by planning on what to do.I could also think if I have time to do it. I also learned at the very end that you could just make things very big and put it in pillar like structures. I am pretty sure that we will be doing a lot of kerning and now I know a easy way to do it.Below are pictures of my text layers,photo arrangement, and both put together.
