Holy crap Extra credit!!!!!!!!

Well first off Is Disney stupid or something, it seems like all there doing lightly is just messing everything up and pissing everyone off. I mean really Disney you want to trade mark a holiday!?!?!?!
I think this time they have gone too far, yes they have done some bad things in the past but trying to take over the holidays! This is something companies like coke-a-cola can do with Christmas. 

Week

Well this week..........was a week, i have nothing else to say, it was a bad week.

I didnt real learn anything, and there is nothing i want to learn. there was also nothing that made ma happy or mad, this week was indifferent.

the movie brave and disny giving the workld the middle finger again.

1)First off i learned that the main character is based of the writers 13 year old daughter, I think that is  a bad idea when dealing with Disney because the will change anything just to make a quick buck.
2) Secondly i learned that the writer tried to contact Disney, which is another dumb idea because its not like Disney is going to do anything. The would just say "this is what it is DEAL WITH IT"
3) lastly i learned that there are many people rising up against Disney for what they have done, I am not shocked at by this, people will fight for things that they feel strongly about.

the only question i have is "why does Disney not even ask the creators before making a change like this?"

6 Simple Mistakes Documentary Filmmakers Make

1) well first off i learned that if you want to recreate a past event you shouldn't use bad techniques, this makes a lot of seance because that kind of change in a film is jarring and disorientating to the viewers.
2) Secondly i learned that the sound track could make or break your film, This is good advice in my mind because no one is going to watch an interesting movie if it has annoying music going on the entire time.
3) Lastly i learned that if your filming without a vision then you shouldn't be filming at all. This is also good advice because if you have no clue of what your going to make then why would be filming already?

The only question i have is are skits helpful to making a documentary successful?

well this week i learned that Rocketdog is now one of my favorite shows. There isnt really anything i want to learn. I am happy that i should be able to finish my final project and that i get to go to the volbeat consent. There is nothing class related that is making me mad.

Warning really stupid and random, but funny Rocketdog 

Standards of Living: The First Feature Film Shot Entirely on an iPad 2

1)well first off i learned that there is a movie being shot entirely on an iPad 2, I guess this is not that shocking because not all movies can be shot with the best cameras.
2)secondly i learned that this movie is about a comedian who teams up with a guy trying to teleport.........cuz why not? I dont know i just dont find that like an interesting plot.
 3) lastly I learned that the writer got inspiration from the twilight zone. I guess thats ont shocking because it has been around a while and was very popular.

the only question i have is did they edit it on the iPad or just shoot it on it?    

the Future of Animation..... CATBUG AND ROCKETDOG

1) well first off i learned that the people who made adventure time made cartoon hangover. Thats not that shocking because the cartoons on the cartoon hangover youtube do look similar to adventure time. this is also cool because im a fan of both while i do think bravest warriors is better then adventure time though. 
here is there youtube http://www.youtube.com/user/CartoonHangover

Cat bug: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc8e0ASIZyQ&list=PL2DcNkn8HAwSOiWYpgkBAas9bbArNfJl8&index=2


2)secondly I learned that Joe Murray, the creator of Rocko’s Modern Life tried to make something like cartoon hangover but failed, only posting three episodes even though he got his target amount on kickstarter.

3)lastly i learned about a kickstarter for an animated kids show from the UK. I have to say it looks really stupid from the pictures, if it does air i think it will be like most kid shows and fail.

my only question is how did they find a median in bravest warriors between random episodes and a season long story? 

Wednesday, May 1, 2013

1) well first off i learned that there is a competition for 6 second movies. That is very interesting because you never really see competitions for movies that short, 1 minute not 6 seconds.
2) secondly  learned when making a 6 second film you really need to think stuff out. This is smart because you only have 6 seconds to tell a story and impress the viewer so you need to plan well.
3)lastly i learned that you should not let your imagination stop at 6 seconds, think out an entire idea but just show a small portion in the video. this is smart because then it leaves the viewer wanting to know the entire story so you will gain popularity as a film maker. 
 my only question for this is where do we watch the entries?

Why Is It So Difficult to Make Cute Characters?

1) well first i learned that a cartoon character is considered cute if it fits these standers

Head large in relation to the body.
Eyes spaced low on the head and usually wide and far apart.
Fat legs, short and tapering down into small feet for type.
Tummy bulges—looks well fed.
This is not surprising because these standards have been in place seance the start of cartoons.

2) secondly i learned there are some exceptions to this rule, like WALL-E. this makes seance because it wouldn't make any seance at all if everything did follow this rule.

3) lastly i learned that If a character is too cute and sugary sweet, the audience can develop skepticism. This is a good observation because if a character seems too nice then people will not relate to in and lose interest. 

Only question is why did someone wast there time thinking up all of this?
