Catch Up & Capstone Changes
We've spent the last two classes finishing up the After Effects video and finishing class work that was outstanding.
Your current assignment is to make a post restating your capstone topic, your focus and the method of presentation (media) you will use. Please indicate if these are unchanged or if you are adding or changing something in your capstone project.
Next class we will work on the video yearbook.

Creating a Web Gallery on your Blog
Six students are needing to post their web gallery onto their capstone blogs. Here is a step by step guide, if you need to catch up.
- Find 5 images that have something to do with your capstone topic.
- Open the Bridge either from Photoshop (the brown BR in a square at the top) or from the Programs list under Adobe/Bridge.
- Find and select your 5 images. Click on output and select web gallery.
- Name the Gallery, set the colors, size of images, size of thumbnails, and whether you want it to automatically play as a slide show and how long each image should show.
- Set the Destination for it on your student folder on the D:// drive in a folder called webgallery and click OK to create the gallery.
- Open your FTP account using filezilla and copy the entire webgallery folder into your student folder.
- Log onto your blog and in Layout add a new Gadget: Link Lists. You will call the link: Photos, under the URL you will give the entire path for your ftp folder/webgallery, ie;
http://www.mmlab2.rlc.dcccd.edu/imed1191n15/web(your number here, ie;)5553/(the name of your gallery)webgallery, then you will give this particular gallery a name such as Chubby Kids Freakshow. Whatever is appropriate to your website and create link...save.
8. View your blog and click on the link to see if the webgallery is working properly.
