AAP Assignment

Here is the to a video I chose for my AAP assignment. It is an advertisement for Nikon, quite a famous brand for cameras. Enjoy!

A close up shot was used to show the man taking pictures of a mountain the camera screen showing the mountain is clear and that could be a selling point for the camera with a high definition. Another close up shot was used to show that the camera was waterproof and will not malfunction in deep waters, it could be another selling point for the camera with a waterproof function. A new selling point could be that Nikon also creates new upgrades for their cameras like zoom lens, flashes. A generation of high quality images was created for more improvement.

Multiple Intelligence Test

Multiple Intelligence Test is a test to find out which area one performs best by showing a list of questions, with them of all different areas and through the person's response to the questions, his/her personality or ability at a specific area will be shown through a form of a "pie", which is a circle divided into the number of areas tested in the Multiple Intelligence Test and it will show which area the person is best through the total tally of marks. Another form to show the marks most probably is through a bar graph, also using the total tally of marks. I think that the way the system calculates the marks of the person is that with (for example: Strongly Disagree, Disagree, Agree, Strongly Agree) or maybe with other options, and 1 point will be given for the worst choice to show disagreement or dislike and maybe 6 points will be awarded for the best choice to show agreement or like(if there are 6 choices). I really find the creator of the Multiple Intelligence Test an impressive person as he/she could figure out a way to test for a person's ability or personality through simple questions. The person tested may not even know that the tester is testing him/her to get his/her ability and personality. The Multiple Intelligence Test is indeed very smart to get abilities and personalities of people through such an interesting way. I tried it out myself and my best area was Logical, which is being number smart. The Multiple Intelligence Test is indeed a very interesting invention.
