music videos

my thoughts on the projects:...

gabriel:...
 really funny.  Its hard to explain unless you understand art but i think he did a good job.  it was a little short but it was a funny. :):D

alexa, kelly & tessa:...
their's was so funnny!!!  i really liked it.  i thought it was put together really great.  But it was hiiiii-ler-ious!!!

varsik, justin, vanessa, & justeen:...
WoW!!!  that was sooo good.  they did the bestest job.  it was funny and creative and complimented the music perfectleee.

jessica:...
it was put together really well however, the actors were not very good.  she should only work on the lipsinging.  but it was good.

alex, mark, deegen, chris, kenny:...lamb story:...
i thought they were very creative and you could tell that they had a funnn time making it.  i only think that they should use images relating to the words.

kat & edwin:...
theirs was really mellow.  the tone of the music went with the pictures very well.  the affects were amazing, i liked how the colors changed it was really nice.  the part in the car was kind of scary to me.  but over all it was really kool.

devon & anthony:...
i liked theirs it was dope.  It was a little two long and i think the first part was a little boring compared to the second part.  I felt that Anthony should have danced as well as Devon.  The effects was niceee.

_MY HOOD_







the storm is coming...

On Friday and Monday the class watched a movie called The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.  This has been one of the most touching movies i have ever seen.  Watching it made me realize how spectacular the will of a human could be, even after they are experiencing locked-in syndrome. The camera angles chosen by the director Julian Schnabel, were amazing, especially in the beginning.  Trying to figure out what was going on really challenged my mind and imagination.  Therefore, i am really inspired and encouraged to read the book which i think i will do very soon.  It has also made me realize how greatly thankful i should be for the life I'm living and the fact that i can communicate normally.

Today we listened to the different projects that students have made on garage band, here's what I thought:
(Because i came like half and hour late I'm writing based on what I saw and what I remember)

Devin and Anthony:
From what i heard i thought that they did very good.  It was very good considering they made the music themselves.  However they should've had some kind of chorus, but overall it was really cool.

Alex's group:
I thought there piece was very funny, i think it was a good idea to do what they did because it was different, unique and very creative.

Gabriel:
I think he did  a lot better than he gives himself credit.  He does need to add more to the piece, and it would be great.  However, he's on the right track.

Leslie:
I really liked the beat.  It was cool and "pimp".  But she just needs to add words and make it longer.

Us!:
 We did the best!!!  Just kidding.  I think that we are going to do it over.  Ours was really funny though.
