Meeting deadlines is a really important thing, always hand your work before it gets too late. Be in the lesson is also a key part, because that's the only way you can get your work done on time. Attendance could effect your grade, once you miss lessons, then it means you behind and you will not be able to finish your work. However, Long road is a very relax college compare with other colleges, you are free when you don't have lesson, so you can use that time to do things you enjoy with. But just a reminder, choose the course you most interest with.

JPEG: Joint Photographic Experts Group, a compressed file format, designed to reduce file size, it will not retain layers or transparency, it can not be animated but you will be able to upload it. PNG: Portable Network Graphics. PNG was designed for transferring images on the internet, it will reduce the size of the image and will also keep the transparency.

Three examples: 1. Balance: Before:                                                                        After:     By changing the shape of the butterfly to balance the picture, smaller the size of the blue butterfly and increase the size of the red/pink butterfly. Also move the blue one more close to the edge. Comparing both images, the one after is looking more balanced with one big and one small butterfly. 2. Repetition: Before:                                                                        After:     Copying people's image and paste it next to the original image which to create repetition, also changed the colour of the image after pasting it. The reason I think it's good is because there are also shadowing effects in the music video, which can use this image to inform the audiences that there are shadow effects included in the song. 3.  Contrast:     Before:                                                                      After:    He

1. Balance: Balance is design is similar to balance in physics. A large shape close to the center can be balanced by a small shape close to the edge. Balanced provides stability and structure to a design. It's the weight distributed in the design by the placement of your elements. example:       2.  Proximity: Proximity creates relationship between elements. It provides a focal point. Proximity doesn't mean that elements have to be placed together, it means they should be visually connected in someway. example:   3. Alignment: Allows us to create order and organisation. Aligning elements allows them to create a visual connection with each other. example:          4. Repetition: Repetition strengthens a design by typing together individual elements. It helps to create association and consistency. Repetition can create rhythm (a feeling of organized movement). example: 5. Contrast: refers to the arrangement of opposite elements (light vs. dark colors, rough v
