Workshop 1 

The traffic light exercise that we did in the lecture for multimedia development gave me a new perspective on how to look at objects that we see regularly every day and to actually think about how they work the topic of how traffic lights work is something that I would not be familiar with but I do see a a pattern in how the lights work. I also did not know how to create a flow chart as I have never done one before but one of the people I was in a group with knew how to do flow charts so I kind of understood how they worked. I enjoyed working in a group because I learned new things and since I didn't really understand how flow charts worked I had help to figure it out and I enjoyed interacting with people instead of figuring it out by myself. I also found out what the pattern was of the traffic lights which was the top and bottom lights would be red and the left and right would be green and the pattern would change every few minutes I also got to hear peoples perspective of how traffic lights work which I found interesting because different groups had different answers and one group did it from the person driving the cars point of view which I found interesting and another group had a theory that there was pressure plates to know when a car is at the traffic lights so the lights would then know when to change color. I learned a lot from this task such as how we see objects everyday but do not know how they actually work and I also learned that traffic lights have a pattern and also how to create a flow chart I also liked that we got to interact as a class instead of just reading notes of the board and in my opinion it helps me learn and understand things better when working in a group rather than working by myself.

Alpha For this weeks project I have looked at tutorials on how to make a main menu and how to add inventory I feel like this week Unity has just gone against me for everything for some reason when I try to make a panel for the main menu and inventory it will not let me add images to the panel which is a big part of the main menu and inventory so I could not complete this but I have found a main menu tutorial that Jimmy Vegas has done which I have not tried yet because I have spent a lot of time trying to solve some of these problems but could not fix it so hopefully the Jimmy Vegas tutorial on main menus works on my Unity. Inventory main menu I have also tried to add some dialogue to my game but for some reason in the c script it was giving me an error and anytime I fixed it the error came back up so the dialogue was also not working great so you could say I haven't had the best of luck with my Unity today hopefully someone in the year can help me solve this problem so I can ...

Project

Project  After many trials and errors I have final got a somewhat working main menu for my game it will still not let me add images but luckily from one of the asset packages I downloaded there was a sprite that had a menu title on it which will do for now until I figure out how to add images to my main menu I tried adding a cube and tried adding a image to that but that did not work either but I am happy with what I got so far even though it did take a while to figure everything out because it would not let me add my script to the buttons on my menu for no reason at all because I had no errors in my script but I will get it working eventually. Anyway I am happy that I finally got a somewhat working menu done. main menu. buttons and main menu. trying to add cube to add image as background.

Introduction

Introduction Hi my name is Jennifer Moorehouse I am 20 years old I was born on the 24th of August 1999 and I live in Finglas in Dublin with my mother and my sister who is 16 years old who annoys the life out of me I am currently studying creative digital media in TU Dublin Blanchardstown and I am in my second year. In my first year in creative digital media I learned a lot one of my favorite modules last year was photography because I love the art side of it and love that you can be creative and express something through an image I also loved looking at different types of photographers and admiring their work I did learn a lot last year and created a lot of new things such as websites, films, photographs, posters and so much more. I am not too sure what career I want to do in the future but so far I do really like photography/Photoshop and I also feel like web development would be a good career to get into. One of my favorite things to do in my spare time is draw I find it very r...
