Written News Story


"Hey ravens! Today we have the inside scoop on the Olathe Northwest Dance Team. The rdt has finished working as a color guard for the Raven Pride Band and has now begun preparing for this seasons regionals and nationals. The dance team comes every morning at 7am to practice and workout to prepare for the competition season. During this time and Thursday night practices from 6-8, Varsity has finished learning all three of there national routines and started to cleaning those along with the home routine they learned for camp this summer. Jv has also been coming at 7am and is making just as much progress this season.

The varsity dance team has four routines that they compete at two regional competitions. These dances include there home routine from camp this summer which is lyrical/ contemporary, pom, jazz another contemporary dance, and mix. Mix is a combination of four different styles including jazz, kick, pom, and hip hop. Then in February the RDT takes a trip to Florida to compete their jazz, pom and mix routine NDA nationals"   This week in e-Comm we worked on learning how to create and write a news story. This process was very difficult at the beginning but after watching a few videos and getting started it got a lot easier. A news story is similar to an inverted triangle  because you start broad and get more detailed as you continue, only using the facts of course! I really enjoyed writing this news story because I got to write on something that interests me, the school dance team, and show my personality in a variety of different ways. I think I did a very good job of providing valid and important information in a short time, but for next time I would like to work on organization in my pieces because that is very important for the reader/ viewer to help understand.

Music Video

• Embed your work at the top of your blog post under your Title. These past few weeks in video we worked on recreating the Bet on It video from High School Musical 2. As a group we thought this video would be really fun to create and challenging in many ways. We also had a good idea for locations already so we thought it would be do able. We started with pre-production by dividing up the work to be efficient and effective because we wanted to have as much times as we could to film. We also decided Alex was going to act, Josh and Drew we going to mainly do the camera, and Maleah and I were going to help with choreography and making sure the video and our filming was the same and there wasn't anything weird going on. After we had footage we all edited together since we couldn't have everyone at the same time, so we had one person run editing and everyone else helping and we rotated the main editor. As a group I think we worked together really well and dealt with the issues w...

Sidewalk Chalk Art

         Over the past three days we worked as a group to create a symbol that represented us. The First day we were randomly assigned groups, once we were put into groups we were told to think of a symbol that represents our selves. The teachers taught us about ancient art and symbols. For example if you played soccer your cold do a soccer ball to represent you. then they said how colors can represent something to, like in a flag the colors could represent peace or war.        My groups members were Annabelle, Kate, and Andrew. Overall as a group we worked very well together. The first thing we did was work together to try to think of out symbols. Mine was a pointe shoe to represent dance, Annabelle's were pom poms to represent cheer, Kate' was a painting brush because she likes art, and Andrew's was a baseball and bat because he plays baseball.

Making a Logo

The Process: Over the past few weeks we have been making are own logos. We started out by making sketches using our name. we made many different sketches then we narrowed it down to three. we then took those three logos and put them into adobe illustrator. Once in adobe illustrator we made different combinations of each logo. after we choose a final design in black and white we made different color combinations.    Why I choose this logo: I choose this logo because it was simple and complex at the same time. I liked the colors grey and back because the are neutral colors and could go well on anything The font I chose is very cute an happy for the Ava Clayton. The font I use fro the C was very simple and serious.
