SUBMIT A PROJECTThis is a website that I created to show the history of the band Green Day and its members. The website includes details on how the band started and how it has affected society. I created this website as my deliverable for my project on Green Day.
In my project, I talk about the British BBC sci-fi show Dr. Who. For my deliverable, I made a scale model of the TARDIS, The Doctor's (main character) time machine and a research paper.
Part of my deliverable was to make a video presentation about introversion an why it can be a good thing, as well as ways to help yourself out as an introvert
This was a devliable I made for a project focused on rockets and colonizing mars, it is a rocket with a small engine in it, once it is at it highest altitude the nose cap comes off and a parachute comes out.
This project began with my desire to change our state flag. The current flag is problematic because it contains racist imagery, is nearly identical to half of the US state flags and because visually it is unappealing. I created a new flag after research into design principals and into emblematic images of Minnesota. In this new flag, the blue represents the lakes and rivers of Minnesota, the green represents the forests and nature, the white represents the cold and snow of the state, and the star is the state's motto, which is "L'Etoile du Nord" which is French for "the North Star"
I have been working on woodburning for a year and making this board for our Student of the Block display was a chance to try my skills on a bigger scale than I had done in the past. It is entirely wood burned and it took as many hours as a grade level project. I’m hopefully going to pain a boarder on some 2x4s to add a bit of color but that will be another project.
These are screenshots of the venue we have built for an online prom. While not yet complete, these give a fairly good idea of the final product. The event itself is scheduled for May 15; between now and then, more screenshots will likely be added to that folder. The "Buildings" subfolder has not been updated recently, but the "Progress Shots" (screenshots taken over the course of the project from the same positions and give an idea of how construction has progressed) are being updated fairly regularly and reach back to day 1.
This is my presentation on Japanese language and Culture. This project was originally started from my interest in going to Japan.
I tried to learn about one different kind of art or craft a week over the course of the quarter. I would do some research about an aspect of the topic and then I would try to make that art or craft. I did things like painting, drawing, crochet, sewing, and embroidery.
I wrote a paper about the history and evolution of human rights. It starts with the Magna Carta and goes until now. I chose to do this project for many reasons, mainly because I want to pursue a career in human rights in the future.
There are lots of roads to take when relating to film making as a career. I explored different mediums of film I haven't tried. I also tried different writing styles ending with one final film as my deliverable. I worked with the concept of a unique view of things, making everything a story. I hope to see this be an example of my work to kick start my career in film. I want to find a path that suits me well and I get to make things I am proud of in the end. I want people to know the name "Keys".
It's a piece of writing that I made. I recently finalized the project and my advisor suggested that I should submit it to this, so I did!
This is a deliverable of a project I did where I made a movie about my two cats Marty and Malcolm this is by no means a high budget film but it is still great

This painting of Claudette Colvin is a group project about people who didn't get credit for making history.
