I learn how Walt and Jim both grew up in the south and how each of their experiences shaped the movies they made and why they became film makers. They both also considered themselves film makers first everything else second.

I think its cool that two of the best film makers were so similar but different at the same time.

I didn't know much about either of them till I read  this article especially Jim.

Did Jim and Walt ever meet and hangout?

I learned how to make my storyboards more dynamic by drawing in a 3-point view I also learned to draw a grid or something for a floor so things don't look like their floating. labeling characters also helps to organize them on stage so nobody gets confused.

I think the article had some good information on storyboards.

I don't think ill be able to draw in the way to make it look 3 dimensional.

How do storyboards affect the look and feel of a film?

This week I learned about the upcoming project how we need to make a story with only sounds

What made me happy this weekend is that we went to Becker farms and picked apples.

Nothing frustrated me this week just a little stressed from all the school work.

What I want to learn is why does certain music trigger different emotions.

I learned that brands that use a video to tell a story of what their about make more connections to the audience and brands that constantly just mention them and how their the best still do good but make less connections.

I think that all brands should advertise this way it would make it more interesting.

The two videos from chipotle made think about how fast food is made and now how everyone is making everything "fresh".

Why do commercials do what they do if its possible to advertise the way chipotle did?

I learned that we can interpret sounds to different emotions and the right sound could make a scene that much more horrific, romantic and thrilling.

I think sound plays a bigger role in movies because I always listen to the music first then what the actors are saying then the picture.

I believe sounds could definitely make more brake a scene you dont want a happy sound during a murder it would just ruin the scene.

Why could people feel different things from different sounds?

I learned about how perspective is important when using miniatures. I also learned that if one thing is off it could ruin the shots as well as using miniatures allows you to see how the shot looks on camera.

I think the illusion was really cool.

I cant believe how the shot turned out its cool that they used a small toy.

Could you produce the same shot with CGI?

I learned that a lot of animated movies are and were released. I also learned that because of all the movies its making big competition. I learned that animated movies are also 2nd in sales at the box office.


I think its good that animated movies are still coming out strong I love them.

I just hope animated movies get better because of the competition.

Why are all the companies focused on animated films.
