For my slide, I decided not to use a normal template as my background. I feel as though the default templates are really boring and don't show any originality. I chose to stick with only a few pictures because I didn't want to over power the focus of my slide, but I still wanted it to be interesting. I used different colors for the words to make them stand out more. Color is always the first thing people notice.
When asked the question who am I, I usually think about the things that are more broad. I'm a girl, I'm 15, I'm a daughter, and a sister. I never really think about my traits or interests though. So for this project, I decided to focus on the things that make me who I am and my interests.
All the words are words that I would use to describe myself and how people have described me.I would say I'm caring because I’m always there for my family and friends. I support them whenever they need it. I'm a poet because I've been writing poetry for years, and it's one of my favorite hobbies. I'm smart because I tend to have bright ideas. I may not be the best in math, but when it comes to English and AfAm History, I tend to excel. For the picture of lush and forever 21, they are my favorite stores.
For the picture of my friends, I added it because they are really important people in my life and they help me when . For the picture of Lana Del Rey, I added her because she is a very influential artist to me. She's the reason I write poetry and her music always puts me in a better mood whenever I'm going through something difficult.
That's my slide! I hope you enjoyed.

My slide was designed on things that I enjoy doing and how I see myself. I put on my slide what I enjoy doing and the sports that I play. I also put two quotes that I like. I made some of my pictures bleed of the page for more space. I made the words big so they would be easier to see. I wanted to display the fact that I am athletic and enjoy sports. I included my horoscope sign in my slide as well. I want people to get to know me for who I really and and not just who I am perceived to be. I enjoy many other things but these are the ones I wanted to share.

Kielar Me slide
This one slide shows all the things about me and what had inspired me. I had began making this slide by adding a large title in order to get the reader’s attention. The title tells you what the slide is and explains that this entire slide is about me, Kamil Kielar. When learning about making slides it was explained that the slides must be very visual in order to be noticed by others better so in order to do this I had added countless pictures. Also the colors chosen for this slide where very bright and go well with each other giving the slide a theme. Contrast had also played a very important role in my slide. Every color way mostly light except for the big picture in the middle. It allows the reader to pay attention to this picture allowing them perceive it as more important. Last I had used size variation in my pictures to show the readers which things are more essential to my personality.
The things I had put in my slide show the stuff that is most important to me and past memories that have stayed with me for all these years. The first picture to the left shows my nationality and where I had come from. I was born in Poland and speak the language every single day. This is one of the most important thing in my life. Next is the big A right under thing the flag. For my entire life my parents have pushed me to my limits and all my life teachers had always expected more from me. Academics has always been an important part of my life. Through my academic I hope to go to MIT or some other good college. Out of all the memories I remember the biggest one I think is my car crash. I was in a big accident where my entire car had flipped over but luckily no one was hurt. Then is one of my favorite shows is Two and a Half Men. I like to watch this show and find it very entertaining. Last is one of my favorite quotes. This quote has defined me as a person and changed my future.All about me
I started with a picture looking of the pictures of me. I was looking In and I had a few of my and my dog but I went with my and my best friend Theo. After looking at it for a few minutes I realized it draws up your eye but only for a second I very bright compared to the not so bright dark background of the rest of the slide. After that I got a bit suck. I really did not know what to right on the side. After a bit of thinking I started to list things about what that I would talk about during the presentation. I listed three things in relatively big letters. I thought that it would give a basic idea without directing your attention away from from me. Also the image bleeds of the slide. I did this because because I wanted to make it look like it was a bigger image without making the acall image bigger since it did not as good if it is bigger. If the Since the picture was not too advanced. You get the idea of both though it taking your attention for two long. I also had my name on top after a bit of thinking I was not sure if I should have had it. Since it more text that can distract them. I decided that I could just say it.

I wanted my script to display two things, a saxophone and a musical quote. However, I wanted my slide to be a simple as can be, so my viewers eyes wouldn’t be drawn to multiple places. To do this, I left a lot of empty space and followed the rules of thirds. My saxophone picture( which I edited) is on the left ⅓ of the screen and my quote is on the right ⅓ of the screen. Another method I used to leave a lot of empty space was to bleed my saxophone picture over the right of the slide.
I also wanted my slide to be as simple as I could make it so I could focus on the few things I had on the slide. Fewer things = more quality pieces of the slide. To make my quote more interesting, I decided to play around with the fonts to make each word a different size. This gave my slide an extra layer of depth and quality. Originally, I was going to make my quote the color red, however I felt like it was too hard on the eyes and decided to get with a more mellow blue. Lastly, I decided to make my quote fairly big so the readers could notice it and read it with ease.

My Slide was designed on visuals in my head. I just thought about the most important things to me and then made the slide. I made the pictures of me bleed off the slide for more space and better visual. I had to take some things off my slide and give it a main focus “ME”. Everything on the slide has to do with me and everything that I love. I chose my colors based on if it would grab the viewer's attention. The size of the letters were so everyone could carelessly see every word That I wrote.
The actual slide is about all the things I love. I love Dancing and singing with a passionate if I could do anything it would be that. I am not a shy person and I love being in the spotlight or the center of attention. Whenever there is an opportunity I take it and don't look back. That is what my other slide is about how life is like a show and the curtain never closes so take chances with no regrets. Aaliyah is a symbol of who I want to be. She was herself no matter how many people tried to change her she stayed true to herself and everyone else. She was also a great singer and dancer and worked hard to become that.
I wanted the people who actually take away from my slide that I am a fun person who will work for what she wants. Also, that no matter what I will stay true to myself and my goals. Lastly, that I love living and singing and dancing are my passions that I won't let go.
Imani's Script and Blog
I just made it about me I knew everything about me and I knew what things were interesting and what things weren’t interesting. I took things people did know and what people didn’t know. I just wanted my slide to explain to you guys what I like who I am and what you should know about me. I am not like other people and no one is so I just thought it would be best to put everything that people would want to know and what people are curious about. I am funny, cool, out going, and serious. I don’t care about what people think about me and how people perceive me because regardless of what people think I am going to be me. The reason why I put the pictures is to give you a visualization of who I am and what I mean when I say certain things. I made things bigger than others because I would want someone to know this thing before this other thing. I just wanted to show you how I stand out as me. I didn’t just make it about my identity but also about what I like to do.
