Disney's New Princess.

This article was about Disney's new princess character Sophia. From this article, I learned that for the past two decades, Disney has been pushing to increase the cultural diversity of the princesses in their animated films. I also learned that Sophia, The First isnt supposed to be Latin, or anything, she comes from a fictional land, set in a fictional world. Another Thing I learned is that many people think that the whole "Multicultural princess nonsense" is ridiculous, and many other people support it. A thing I like about this article is that it taught me about how sensitive people are to stupid things such as if a princess in a disney movie is white or not. A thing i didnt like about the article is it talks about things that are sort of not important to me. A question I have about the article is why do people care so much if a princess is white or not? Has this been going on since Mulan? Seriously, It's not the 1800's anymore. Racism and all that is just unnecessary. 

Directing Tips

This article was about things you should take into perspective if you're thinking about becoming a film director. A thing I learned from the article is that being a director is mostly talking. Another thing I Learned is that to be a successful director you must think how to make the audience think in a particular way. I also learned many steps directors have to take to work with actors, such as they must be working in a safe enviornment. A thing I liked about this article was that it taught me about things you should take if you want to go anywhere with directing. A thing I didnt like about this article was that it was sort of boring. A question I have about this article is who's mark travis? and why does he know so much about directing.

What I Learned This Week.

This week I learned about Time management. This is because sadly i was sick for 3 days. A thing I would like to learn in the future is How to make audio synched with animations. Something that frustrated me this week was missing so much work time due to being sick. Something that made me happy this week was knowing that halloween is so close! here's a cool link!

Employers and Universities No longer Getting into your stuff

This article was about California employers and universities no longer being able to demand social networking logins and passwords. A thing I learned from this article is that previous to the laws being made, Employers could request your login to sites such as facebook, gmail, twitter etc. Another thing I learned from this article is that Facebook has actually condemned these actions in march in their "Statements Of Rights And Responsibilities" which forbids people from sharing their passwords. I also Learned that California is not the only state prohibiting Employers from getting into your accounts. A thing I liked about this article was that it taught me about how these companies are being stopped from invading your privacy. I also like that it gave examples of employers firing people for not giving their passwords. A question I have about this article is why do employers need to do this? Its Just, Not Right.

Water Wigs

This article was about photographer Tim Tadder capturing photos of bald men getting hit with water balloons on the head. These Balloons were formed in order to look like they replaced the hair. I Learned that catching the balloon exploding at the right time comes down to milliseconds, and to take the picture at the right time, Tadder had to use a bulb expose with the shutter left open. Another thing I learned is that Tadder had to make his studio completely dark and freeze the action with a high-speed flash firing at one ten-thousandth of a second. Another thing i learned is that Tadder is a Commerical Photographer, who worked for companies such as gatorade and adidas. Something I liked about this article was that it included all of the pictures of the shoot. Another thing i liked about the article is that it showed how crazy ideas of people can become a reality. A question I have about the article is, is this photographer one of the best in the world? Because he really had to know his stuff to take these astonishing pictures.

What I Learned this week.

This week I learned how to use flash, WITHOUT ERROR. A Thing i would like to learn about in the future is how to make 3D animation, but I'm guessing i should learn how to make 2D better before that happens. Something that frustrated me this week was coming up with ideas with my Science News Storyboard. Something that made me happy this week was that i finished a whole Flash project in one day!, and it was some of my hardest work as well!

Here's a Cool Link!
