I learned that when editing you need to know the movie inside out the timing, tone and the structure. You also need to know the boss so you can predict what he would like or want to do. When you edit just don't make the clips flow together make it look unique. Always over achieve what the boss expects of you and fallow what he wants.

I think some of the best movies got to where they are because of work the editors put in.

I believe that these rules are good to fallow, but not all the time.

What do you do if you know what the director wants looks bad and could ruin the movie do you listen to him or do you do your own thing?

I learned about good elements of movies like a good opening for the type of film like a action may have a few short scenes while a romance could have one long scene to set the pacing. Another  thing is to have second problem like say on the hero's journey to beat the villain his mental state is becoming unstable but doesn't tell anyone. also picking the world it takes place in show something new about the one were in or make a world we don't know and show things that are different.

These are good points to keep in mind when creating the film.

I think just because you have these tips in your movie doesn't mean you will get an award.

What does suspense of disbelief mean? their description just confuses me.

This week I learned how to use tracking and cameras in after effects along with using masks and different particle affects.

What I want to know is how does a video game work?

What made me happy this week is that my cousin was back from boot camp.

Something that frustrated me is I cant get the start of my type project just right.

This is a song I got stuck in my head  http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_detailpage&v=biUnzjsuehA

I learned that frozen is based off a folk tale. Disney wanted to make a animated movie on it, but the story didn't have greatly developed characters or plot. Disney then remade the story from scratch and more appealing to modern day moviegoers.

I think its cool that the story is based on a folk tale.

The rendering of the castle is insane 30 hours for one frame.

What is the name of the tale that the movie is based on?

I learned its good to be able to animate both human and creatures because most animated films have some sort of animal. I also learned to add real animal movements to even fantasy creatures, but also that you have to compensate for size and height. I also learned that weight matters to if its a big heavy creature its going to move differently and feel different.

I think this article had some common sense things in it like matching the right movement to your creature.

This article also had something I never thought about before the weight of the creature

How can you make a creature feel heavy or light?

This week I learned how to do different things with text in after effects things making it 3D and applying different animations to it.

What I want to learn is anything that I wasn't taught yet.

What frustrated me this week is I'm somewhat behind on tutorials.

What made me happy this week is that I got a Xbox one.

I think this is neat, but needs improvement what if your on a steep mountain https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtRnzlO7m_M&feature=player_detailpage

I learned that Disney was trying to make a new animated  short look like it was a older Mickey Mouse. they had add mistakes and leave some details frame by frame. They also took  the original sounds out the real older mickey cartoons and cleaned them up a little bit. Also to help recreate the old mickey mouse they had to add a flickering lighting in the background changing the levels frame by frame as well.

I think its cool that they recreated the effect of older shorts.

I think it was interesting how they had to animate in the first years of mickey mouse.

Does the recreated short look just like the original or are there big differences?
