Week of June 12th

I really liked the film festival. I liked seeing all the films that the people from our class and all the other classes created. Although, what I didn't like was that some of the film were repeated more than twice. I went to the film festival for all periods, so it was boring having to watch the same film three times. Overall, it was great and I can't wait until the evening film festival to see the films I loved and new ones that I haven't seen before.

Week of June 5th

 For this week, we our horror film on Monday and Wednesday. We uploaded our film into the computer and started editing the horror film. We also started editing our music video, but we want to finish it now because we want it to be in the evening film festival. We want to check out a camera for the weekend to finish filming our horror film.

Week of May 29th

During this week, our group recorded during the weekend and also on Wednesday. We were supposed to record the dance on Tuesday, but we couldn't so we recorded on Wednesday in the auditorium. We uploaded the film into the computer, but we haven't started editing because the film started glitching yesterday. We also started planning our last film and decided we wanted to do a horror film.

Week of May 22nd

During this week we went to the EduCare office to ask if we could film in the auditorium after school. We were supposed to go after school to film the dance, but our dancers had stuff to do this week. We didn't film this week, but we're going to film today. We are also going to check out a camera to film this weekend.

Week of May 15th

During this week we planned where we were going to film and we decided to shoot our film at Santa Monica Pier. We want to film the rest of our video in the auditorium, but we haven't gotten permission yet to film there. However, we didn't have time to really rehearse the dance this week because of AP tests.

Week of May 8th

During this week, our production company rehearsed the dance for the music video. We decided that we are going to check out a camera this weekend and record the video. Although, we feel like we would need more time than just one weekend. We need to go to different locations and film the dancing.

Week of May 1st

During this week we changed the song to Para Enamorarte De Mi by Camila because it was more upbeat and we liked the new one better. We worked on the dance and added more dance moves. Although the old dance was good, I think that the new dane is better. We also checked out a camera to see the angles that we want to film the dance in. We got some of the angles, but we still don't know how we're going to film some of the dancing.

Week of April 24th

For this week we worked on our second film which is a music video. We added more dance moves to the choreography and arranged the song so we knew which are going to de the clips and which parts are going to be the dancing. Although, we still do not know who are going to be the main characters in our film.

Week of April 17th

During this week we started working on our second film. We are doing a music video with dancing and we started working on the choreography for the song. Our group also divided the song into two parts, the dancing scenes and the scenes that are going to be clips. We decided that all of our group is going to learn the dance and then we are going to decide which two people dance better. Whoever we believe dances better together are going to be the main people in our music video.

Week of April 10th

During this week we edited the PSA that we filmed during the weekend. We finished it on Wednesday, but we still needed to add music. The weren't able to get the song on these computers, so we downloaded it at home and brought it here to add it to the film. I really liked our film and the concept we did on the PSA. Although, I feel like some parts of the film could have turned out better. For example, for one shot we had kids talk into the camera, but we didn't have any microphones. When we uploaded it onto the computer the sound and when the kids talked was off. We also talked bout the next film we are going to make. We decided to change the narrative into a music video and we are going to have people dancing. I am going to be in charge of making the choreography for that film.

Week of April 3rd

During this week, we worked on the new PSA that we're going to make. We felt like the one we made wasn't good and we thought we could turn in something better, so we decided we were going to re-film it. We also changed the concept of the PSA. We also talked about the other two films were going to make. We want to make two other narratives after we finish the PSA.Our group talked about the other films we want to do and we organized how and when we are going to do the other films. Today and on Sunday, we are going to go film at the park for the PSA.

Week of March 27th

I am working with Paula Mairena, Ailyn Espinoza, Maritza Perez, Rafael Valladolid, and Kevin Caballero. Our production company, Stellar Productions, is working on a PSA. On Monday we organized what we were going to do and what we were going to film. On Tuesday, we went to go film our PSA at Salt Lake park. Although we already filmed everything, we didn't like how it turned out, so we  want to film it again. On Wednesday, we uploaded the film onto the computer and started editing our film. While the film was editing, we started discussing what we wanted to do for our next film which is going to be a documentary. Yesterday, we just continued to edit out film and we also went into detail about that we wanted our next film to be about.

What Music Means to Me

Music is important to me because it is an escape from my life. Whenever i don't want to escape, I just listen to my music. I like to listen to music because the lyrics tell a story and sometimes I can relate to the music. I always like to music whether it be when I'm sad or when I'm happy. I like to listen to music when I do exercise because it makes me want to be active and move around. It motivates me to keep going and not want to stop when I want I want to, but I should keep going. The kind of music I like listening to is pop, hip-hop, rap, rock, bachata, and banda. My favorite musicians and bands are Ed Sheeran, Taylor Swift, Sam Smith, 5SOS, Ron Pope, Bastille, and Imagine Dragons. My favorite song at the moment is Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran because it has a nice melody and I like the lyrics. I like listening to music because I like dancing and pop music makes we want to jump around and dance.

The Most Interesting Person In The World

The most interesting person I know is my friend Lizeth because she has had many adventures. She is always going to new places and meeting different people. She has gone to many concerts of people like Ed Sheeran and Prince Royce and she likes to go to baseball games. She always wants to create new adventures and I have been a part of some adventures, like the time we went to a Dodgers game. She is a nice, caring person, but she can also be crazy at times. I could listen to her talk about those adventures all day,but I would also like to have a first-hand experience on those adventures. She's eccentric and sometimes hard to keep up with, but she's also very shy at times.

An Inconvenient Truth

In the documentary An inconvenient Truth, Al Gore talks about global warming and the problems that have caused it. Over the years, the earth's atmosphere has thickened because of the the smoke that we produce. This has caused the earth's atmosphere to thicken, thus trapping more of the sun's rays inside our atmosphere, causing a change in our climate. The warmer climate has lead to events such as the melting of icebergs and has dried up rivers. The melting of icebergs has caused the sea level to rise and in a few years some cities of some states, like Florida, are going to be under water. Although, there are some people that don't believe in global warming and what it can do. I believe we should make changes to our lives to help prevent global warming. Even things like riding a bike instead of a car to go somewhere can make a big difference.
