Links I found most useful:
This website article "Famous White hat Hackers" from http://www.investopedia.com was useful because it gave me a feel to what White hat hacking is, and it also gave me example and I learned about famous White hat hackers(Steve Wozniak, Kevin Mitnick who started off as a black-hat hacker and was even arrested for hacking North American Air Defense Command computer.)
Another useful article I found was more about telling me what is White hat Hacking even tough there was some difficult words, it does give you a much more in depth explanation to what White hat Hacking is.

Google Day 1
Goals
-Be able to crop a person and put them in another image while looking realistic: I completed this goal it was actually much easier to do then I thought it would be!
-Find a photoshop that I can download at home, so I can work on my project at home: I completed this goal it is the last link below.
-Expirement and learn new things about photoshop: I also got to expirement with different backrounds and people it was really cool.
Helpful links
I found this website helpful because it had so many things to learn, it was a little advanced but, I'm sure it will come in handy later on.
This youtube channel was great becuase it had tutorials that were numbered, starting at something easy and gradually getting more difficult. I spent most of my time looking at these tutorials, and then trying them out on the photoshop the computer has.
I also found free photoshop that I can download so I can have it on my laptop. I though this wa useful because it allows me to use photoshop at home.
What I want to learn
I want to learn nhow to save my picture on photoshop because I had trouble doing it this class.I also want to actually start investigating more on video editing because I didn't do it this class!

Google 20%
For our Google 20% project I want to create a video with advanced video editing skills. I want to be able to change the colors, add and change effects of video. I also want to learn to make a video animation that can integrate with a actual video recording. (It might start out as an animation, and then turn into a video.) I also want to able to use "photoshop" in my video, I want to be able to put a person that wasn't in the video and make it look like they're in the same place. I think it would also be helpful to learn to create my own transitions, and my own theme to my video. Also be able to alter sounds, and really perfect basic things like adding music and voice overs.
The way I would like to present my project is by making a video that could tell a story with very advanced video editing skills. My aunt is a photographer so I think she could help and teach me about the actual filming process. I think that this part is also very important, I need to learn how to film well and be able to capture the right angles and know more that I do at the moment. I could also download some sort of program that would allow me to do more advanced things than imovie. The animation part I would have to learn, and I know of some internet websites that teach you.
