Movie Poster Promo

The main characters in my poster is Ziggy and Malia. So far we think that we are going to have a big image of Malia and Ziggy. In this Ziggy is crying but also still being friends with Malia. This I think plays a big role in our story because it explains a lot. I also think that after seeing the movie poster people will wonder why Ziggy is crying. After this people will get interested and want to watch the movie to see what happens. Are you thinking about what is going to happen. Well you should watch the movie.

So far my title is Young and Brokenhearted. This is my title because this is my story's name. I am also in the process of making my poster. So far I have been thinking about the text that I am going to right. I have got my title done so far, now I am working on my other text. I think that at the bottom of my page it is going to say the actors name and what they acted. Also kerning is the spacing in between letters. You can use that to space out your title. Also if you would like your words to be closer you can bring them closer.

Well so far I have a few special effects. I have special effects in my title in my background. In my background I have a radial Blur. As in my title i have effects like outer glow, inner glow, Layer effects and Ext. I also had a fun time learning how to learn how to these effects. I also think if is cool the I got more familiar using Photoshop.

Proactive or Procrastination?

Be honest, are you proactive or procrastinator? Why or why not? I think that I am more of a procrastinator. I feel like this Because I am always waiting tell last minute to do my work. I think this happens because I always want to do something else instead. I mean I know the concept, but I just lay off on it. To be honest I am being  procrastinator right now.  I could of probably already finished this. Which of me being a procrastinator I have to rush and finish it now.

How does your level of productivity effect your amount of free time. Well, like everyone else, if I lay something off I will still have to do it. If you do lay it off you may get to do what you wanted to do that day. But when it is time for your project to be done you will have to rush and not get to do what you want to do that day. This may sound hypocritical of me to say this considering I procrastinating on this project. Hopefully one dat I will be able to not be a procrastinator.

What would you change about your work habits and how would you do it. If I could change anything I would change how I forget about projects. When i could clearly just handle them right away. If i did that then I would not have to worry about when I am going to get my projects done. For an example today I totally forgot about doing this.

My Visual Poem

Describe what your poem is about and how your visuals make an impact. My poem is about a bee out of energy. It also tells how it is hard to live a life being different than everyone else. I also think that my visuals will make an impact because you will see what is going on. You will no have to just guess what is going on.

How do your special effects make the reader feel. Ok, to be honest I don't have to many special effects. But I do have a one I can think of off the top of my head. It is of me being a bee and jumping all around with bees buzzing. I thought that was a good match.

Are you satisfied with your result. Truly, I am not. I feel that a procrastinated then was rushed. I should have added more special effects. I could have added fades and other things also. But overall it was a fun project.

The Experiment

Describe this photo assignment... Why did we do it? We did this to learn photo shop. I feel that this is an important assignment because we may have to use this in the future. When we use it in the future we will know how to use this faster and better than others with no practice. I also enjoy useing this because its fun.

What was oh so right about it and what was oh so wrong about it? One thing I think was good about it was that I took a lot of time on it. I wanted to make this perfect. I also feel that one thing bad was i don't have any experience. I also feel I was kinda rushed.

Hiki No Behind The Scenes

Summarize your project idea and hows it going? My project is about the effect of technology. We have a several interviews with people and their thoughts on how technology has effected people's lives. I also feel that our story is very strong on how people's lives are effected. I think that our project is going at a great pace.

What happens when the camera is not rolling? When we are not videoing we are planing to video. we are planing interviews when we have nothing else to do and need an interview in a certain place. If we are not doing that we are editing. We are making sure their are no sound over lapse, no green flashes etc.

Discuss one thing you can do to help out your team? One thing I can do is not get in the way with them and mess them up. I can always try to be on task and stay with what they are doing. When they are telling me something I can write it down so I don't forget. Another thing I can do is always follow orders that my team gives me. I like working with my group.

News Story

http://www.bostonglobe.com/news/world/2014/09/23/israel-military-shoots-down-syrian-aircraft/OIKRPFnGA8rcqZq9Wxl3NI/story.html

Jerusalem- Tuesday, a Syrian fighter jet was shot down in the Israel airspace. For the first time in a quarter of a century a Syrian fighter jet flew into Israel's airspace then was soon after shot down by Israel's military. Lt. Col. Peter Lerner, A military spokes person say it was a Russian made Sukhoi warplane, this jet flew into the airspace at approximately 9:15 AM. Israel said that they knew Syria was not trying to attack, but they can not allow other planes to fly in their air space. People are now concerned that it will become into a war because of their violent past.

I that this was totally that was uncalled for. They even knew that it was not an attack but they shot anyways. I mean if i was driving an airplane I could easily fly into someones airspace on accident. In this article they said nothing saying they gave the plane warning that they would shoot it. Because they did this things may get worse between them.

We should care about this because how do we know there will not be a war? Also, if they got in a war we would have to provide aid to Israel because were allies with them. Then we would have to send troops over their that do not need to be over there. It also might cause the U.S. to be in more debit. Also if we get involved Syria might want to attack us.

Back To School

What is your favorite moment and biggest challenge? My favorite moment to so far is meeting a lot of new people. I really like how I have been here for so short and already know so many cool people. There is also so many people that know so many of my friends that I was surprised I have not meet them until now. One of my biggest challenges so far is learning all the new technology programs.

What will I do to have a successful year? For starters, I have a tutor for this whole year. I will get all my work done in time. Last year, I had a hard time, but this year will be better. I will also strive to get all A's. I will study for every test 3 times a day.

Lessons Learned

• think my groups project is very interesting. Our project tells about how technology has effected our community. In our story we include other people's opinions so their would not be bias. I feel that the viewer will stay interested in the subject and it will help them see how technology has changed things,  because they will hear so many opinions from the people we interviewed. One of the most interesting things to me was that my team had no fear calling people they did not know and ask for an interview.  This is something I hope to get good at as well.

One of our biggest roadblocks was probably the interviews. I remember one of are interviews canceled and we had to find a new interview. Another roadblock is when we were going to take b-roll and all the cameras were filled out. This made us have to hold back our videoing to another day. Those where probably a few of our main problems.

One of the  major things I find valuable in the film making process is getting to know how to you use all the technology. Im still learning how to take clear and good interviews. I think a lot of these projects are new to me, but I am learning a lot from my group. Another thing that is hard its fitting it all in 3 minutes. I hope you like my blog post thanks for reading.
