Disney princes's

After reading the article about disneys new princess Sofia the First ive learned that people take ethnicity way too seriously and that they base these fairy tal worlds after actual countries such as spain and so on. Ive also learned that disney is going to have a new show come Nov. 18th
i dont like the fact the the whole article was written as a conversation. I like how the fictional word is going to embrace the cultural aspect of latin america and spain which could teach kids many things. Who will the next disney princess be?

movie directing

After reading the film director tips ive learned that theyre are many things tha doesnt go throught the audiences ind such as lense size, framing, etc ive also learned that the actors only really talk to the diretors for things as inspiration, guidance, and directions. Therefore theyre called the "director".
The most used directing method is called "result directing" and its when you tell each person on the set what you want and you now exactly what you want when you want it. i like that the article has tought me alot about directing. It has aso showed me how much work goes into making a movie.
So whats the next big block buster and when will we see it?
This week i learned how to add sound to my animations. one thing that i liked this week was getting to work on my science research animation and i cant wait to work on my 2D animated short. the thing that i didnt like this week was having to do alot of typeing for the science research animation i the furtuer i hope to learn how to make my own music for future animationshttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VeS15Obs6s8  enjoy this video of the legend of bikini bottom and see the people behind the characters

film making tips

After reading the article 6 film making tips from joss whedon ive learned that he created the show buffy the vampire slayer. Ive learned that working in film is a very tuff profession because you need many key components to make just a show let alone a whole movie, and lastly i learned that he was one of the writers for the horror movie The cabbin in the woods. In my opinion the article was full of information and was well written. some of the videos posted in the article were very interestin such as the buffy the vampire slayer one. what other movies will joss direct or write?

Frankenweenie

    After reading the article "Dawn Of TheDead Pets" ive learned that stop motion animation is taken to new heights with the movie frankenweenie being played in not only black and white but 3D as well this has brought stop motion to new heights and possibly new expectations of the audience. Ive also learned that this is not the first time Frankenweenie has been made it was once a short 30-minute animation back in 1980 as one of tim burtons first animations. The last thing i found out was this sort of story had happened to mr. burton he had once owned and lost his beloved dog as does the main character of the movie. In my personal opinion the article gave me a well understanding of the movie and its production, but i was getting alittle confused on who was the speaker sometimes. Is there no limit to stop-motion?

Paranorman

After reading the article "paranorman an art n the making" ive learned that this team or teams of animators have broke the boundaries on new techniques for stop motion animation for example the mob scenes in the movie they made it seem like a much bigger world withe more puppets in this movie than previous ones. i've learned that they use 3D printers for these puppets. and lastly i've learned that paranorman isn't just about action and humor they put real emotion into the movie
     in my opinion the article gives good feed back on the movie i didn't like how it was all a Q and A though i wonder what they're next big movie is going to be after he release of frankinweenie?

the next generation

         After reading the article how star trek: the next generation changed pop culture i learned that after the series they mad another called deep space nine and voyager, but i knew about voyager. i also learned that a lot of the props they used in the movie are actually real in the present. For example the PADD was portraying the Ipad. i learned that it shamed some pop culture trends from the 1980's all the way till today. In my opinion star trek: the next generation was one of the greatest shows ive ever watched, and yes ive watched it. the article though was a well written article and full of information. I wonder what made this show so great when during the 1980's it was conciderd in the "nerd genre"
