Reflection on Second Life
Our class supervising teachers are Mr Chipps and Miss Boshell. The teacher in charge of this project is Mr Groom.
For our project, we are required to create a shirt on Photoshop. We also have to create a soccer field in our second school term on the piece of land we are allowed to build on.
I have only been in the virtual world of Second Life for one day because of the problem with my account. I experienced the virtual world of Second Life with some friends; I enjoyed flying around places and the ability to build items like houses and just a plain old box. I liked the ability to equip or use what you have created and customise the place you want to put your equipment on your body. I had trouble the lag had affected my avatar when I was trying to fly. I ended up getting into the middle of the ocean and had to re log. What I dislike is how we need to use lindens to upload a mere shirt. However, I agree with using lindens as currency, or else everyone could get what they wanted.
Our whole class was asked to create a shirt on Adobe Photoshop through the templates which we were required to download. I learnt a lot about Photoshop with the help of the tutorials and my friend Nathan Zhu. I still had to troubles because I accidentally merged the layers when I wasn’t complete. Some people used existing images or jerseys and attached them onto Adobe Photoshop. I didn’t choose to attach a jersey or image, I only painted the shirt and added my name to the back of the template. This project helped our class on how we can make a shirt and gloves through the use of Adobe Photoshop.
