Microsoft Powerpoint

Microsoft Powerpoint?

It is an application that we use during presentations. We use it to make presentations less boring. In Powerpoint, you hone your skills in summarizing your presentation and also your creativity. You get to choose which animation and transition you will use. Overall, Powerpoint is your best bud during presentations.

Our Project

For our project, our English teacher collaborated with our Computer Science teacher. We were assigned to create a "mini movie" of our own version of the poem "A Letter to Pedro".

This project, though tiring and requires a lot of effort ,is fun. We kept on repeating some scenes. 

Another fun part was when we were creating the movie itself. We argued many times on which transition we should use and what background music to play.

Some Photoshop Fail Pictures

Advantages of Photoshop

Adobe Photoshop has many wonders. I'm amazed on how they programmed Photoshop.

Those dull pictures? Not anymore a problem. You can just edit it using Photoshop, then, tada! You now have an improved version of that picture.

Having a hard time creating a tarpaulin layout? Try using Photoshop and create a better one. You can also easily import some pictures.

Wanna create a good poster? Photoshop is here! With so many options to make your poster more attractive, Photoshop will be your best bud while working.


 

Which is Better, MS Paint or Adobe Photoshop?

For You, which is better, Paint or Photoshop?

I guess most of your answers are Photoshop. Why? Because Photoshop is the latest. In Paint, you cannot edit pictures as you do in Photoshop. It is hard to make magazine covers, tarpaulins, posters, and brochures using MS Paint. Not that I'm criticizing paint but in terms of those things, Photoshop is the best application to use.

However, if you answered MS Paint, it's just alright. If you are artistic enough, MS Paint is the application for you. Paint can also be a good pastime,  also to hone the hidden artist in you.

So, what are your answers? Pain or Photoshop? :D
