Human Eyes Versus Cameras

Something I learned from this article is that the process of video cameras taking still images and then playing them back in sequential order at a frame rate is called "beta movement". Another thing I learned is that the word "Video" comes from the latin word for "I See". I Also Learned that how far pixels are from one another is called spacial resolution. Something I liked about this article is that It provided a bunch of cool information about resolution. Another Thing I liked about this article is that it answers a question I had, and thats how cameras compare to human eyesight. A question I have about the article is are people wondering the answers to this question so that they can make things like prosthetic electronic eyes? that would be cool.

This Week

This week was okay, something that made me happy this week was getting alot of hours at work, that might sound weird but I need the money. Something that Frustrated me this week was being so behind on my work. Something that I learned this week was how to truly read and understand poetry. Something that I'd like to learn in the future is how to be better at making films. Here's a link https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1523379957/oculus-rift-step-into-the-game It's a link to the kickstarter page for Oculus Rift, a Virtual Reality system thats in development and was recently purchased by facebook strangely enough....

This week

This week was alright. Something that made me happy this week is that It's my birthday next week! Something that Frustrated me this week was not placing in the Skills USA Regionals Competition, and then being sick on friday and all weekend. Something that I learned this week is that I suck when working under pressure. Something that I would like to learn in the future is how to deal with the pressure and let my creativity come into action. Here's a cool link : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gdv55pki5As it's a remake of pulp fiction as an 8 Bit Game, It's so cool!

Church of Comedy

Something that I learned about this article is that the Director of Wedding Crashers and The Change-up isn't, never was a very funny person. (That's Ironic.) I also learned that he decided to go into this genre just because it was the first door that was opened to him. Another thing I learned is that actors have to be funny actors in order to work as funny people in comedies, and that theres no exception. Something that I liked about this article is that it shows how people can learn to adapt themselves into something even if it doesn't really come to them naturally. Something I didn't like about the article is the like constant Christianity joke behind the article, It's not really offensive, but I just don't see the reasoning behind it. A question I have about the article is So if a Unfunny director makes funny movies, Is Michael Bay a good person who makes bad movies?

Lego Movie

Something that I learned from this article is that The Lego Movie Surpassed $200 Million at the Box Office. I also learned that they took some interesting lighting techniques from other films and used them in theirs.  Another thing I learned from the article is that in the film they took some realistic elements away from the film to show off the backgrounds. Something that I liked about this article is that the tips given are actually pretty good and interesting. Another thing I liked about the article is that it addresses an interesting topic: how they made The Lego Movie look so cool.  A question I have about the article is why did they choose to add batman into the movie?

This Week

This week was pretty good, Something that made me happy this week was getting my license. (Finally!) Something that frustrated me this week was Trig class. Something that I learned this week is how to do big jumps while skiing, it's really exhilarating.  Something I would like to learn in the future Is how to make iphone games. Here's a cool link http://youtu.be/UqRSa30a7Ps it's a minecraft animation and I thought it was really cool how this guy integrates minecraft with animation, I think that the animation is very well done and that it is very entertaining.
