Manaia's learning journey

This is the last week of our Specialist programs for term 1 my thoughts on the specialist program were that it was a very helpful experience that could help me to gain knowledge that included technical work, and using my intelligence to brainstorm a plan that is related to my type of design.

This  is the last week for the year 7 and 8 specialization for term 1, this term in specialization I was in freelance art , for freelance art my teacher was Whaea Lisa, this term for freelance art we got the choice of weather we wanted to do a window  decal, t-shirt design, word art, logo making, and lots more, when Whaea Lisa said that we could design anything that had to do with graphic designing that put a huge smile on my face. So for my graphic design I decided that I was going to design a T-shirt, and here is a image of my finishing product.

mo taku mahi i roto i te akomanga kei te mahi ahau i tetahi mahi whakaahua mo Tane Mahuta. Ko tetahi o aku whakaahua ka tangohia mai e au i tetahi o nga rakau e taapii ana i ta matou kura. Ko te mea pai ki a au e pa ana ki tenei pikiti nate mea o nga kara kei roto i te pikitia.

Over the past two weeks I believe that the things that I have achieved are learning how to tie dye a t-shirt, I have also learnt how to use adobe illustrator to design my freelance art. For freelance art I am design a design for a t-shirt using the app adobe illustrator, but the first thing I learnt to do to start of my project was how to tie-dye a t-shirt, I had a little help from my Nan it was really fun dying the t-shirt a lot of colourful colours,but the most fun and exciting part of this project was to see how it would turn out in the end.Once we let the t-shirt and the dye set then we washed of all of the access dye and both my Nan and I were very scared because most of the dye was coming of in the water, but then we took the t-shirt out of the water and once my Nan and I saw the t-shirt then we were both very proud of our project that we successfully finished
