Mash up video

We finally finished the mash ups.It was very hard but we finally did it. I chose Karins' video because I really liked it. I like all the effects that he put in it. Also, it in my opinion it even sounded like if he did his own song. The only thing I didn't like was his transition. It didn't go as smooth as all the other part of the song. I really liked this video, good job Karin!

Danger Mouse

Danger Mouse or his real name Brian Joseph Burton was born July 29, 1997. He is a song writer and producer. He is a Grammy Award winner. He came to prominence in 2004 when he released the Grey Album. This album combined different Capella songs. In my opinion all the laws of a song were broken there. I really liked this because I like new things. A mash-up are two or more songs combined to make a new song. There are many artists that make several mash ups and that are good. A linked to a song that I really liked is DJ EARWORM. There are many great artists out there that do great mash-ups, they just need to be discovered.

Earth Day Vanishing Species

The extinction of species around the world has become very severe. Many species have disappeared from the face of the Earth because of us. Species that have been more time here than us and oppose no thread are killed with no reason. Many species support the ecosystem, if you vanish one the whole ecosystem will be affected. We think we have the right to kill them, but we actually don´t. They don´t deserve to die just because we say so. We kill them just to later on put up a shopping mall or something that benefits us. The extinctions of many species is destroying this world, and who gave us the right to do that?

I chose this topic for many reasons. Not many people know about this. They just think just because they are animals, they don´t do anything worthy. Also, the people that do know about this don´t care. They think that it doesn´t matter, if it doesn´t make a profit, then it doesn´t deserve to live. Then, they simple try to make up their mistakes by hiding it from the people. Many people are trying to save species in danger like The Siberian Tiger, which we have almost completely wiped out. This topic really means a lot to me.

Many species have vanished from the face of the Earth because of us. Some species like The Golden Toad. This frog was killed because of deforestation. Animals are connected to everything, they balance the ecosystem. If we kill one, many other animals will die because we are interfering with nature. We just think of our selves and then after everything we realize the wrong we did, but there is nothing we can do about it. A lot of species have disappeared because of our mistakes.

Some people try to save these species. It´s good to hear that some people actually know and do something about it. Some societies like in Africa, in the Safaris. The people give their life to protect the animals from hunters. The do not interfere with their lifes, they just watch over them for any harm that can come to them by the human hand. Also, some zoos take care of them. Many species that are endangered are kept in the zoos protection. Many people are taking care of these animals so they don´t vanish.

Roto Ball

For my Roto Ball video I have some ideas that I think are cool. One of the things is that I'm going to add some video game style. This will be difficult for many reasons. I'll have to create some original video game stuff because a lot of people have done the same. In my background I will have some destroyed peices of buildings. Another thing I'm going to add is some sport. I think I'll put a basketball net, but it would look very wierd. I would have to think of something that is both videogameish and sportish. Those are the things that I would use for my Roto Ball.

3 charts

This is a good representation because you can see on the sides the numbers and the colores of the lines. Then, the background below the lines are also very helpfull.

I like this chart because the line shows when and where I whent up and when I whent up. Also the colors are very helipful in identifing anything.

I chose this chart because everything is arranged by date. Everything is together from the first day to the last day I took the tests.

Medium selection

For my stop-motion project I will do it by pencil. I chose this because for my object, it would be easier. If I did it in plasticine, it would take years to complete it. Before, I thought in plasticine, but like I said it wouldn't work. Another thing I considered was doing it of LEGO. This was my idea for a long time but it would have looked very weird. In my opinion the hardest challenge will be to erase and to do it all over again. I think that sometime I will draw it very different form the first one. Thta's what I'm going to do for my medium.
