Movie Making Reflection.

3 05 2012

You can see the video here.

In term one my class made videos about what to do if you buy something that is faulty. So this is my movie refection we have written in class.

When we made the movies in my group were Neo, Miggy and Jordan. I was a little disappointed that I wasn’t with my friends but it ended up being a good thing.

Everybody in our group worked really hard on making the movie, Neo operated the camera, Jordan and I acted and Miggy helped wherever she could. To be honest I wanted to be the camera person because I don’t like being on camera or acting that much but it helped me to get over not liking photos, still don’t expect me to be in any more videos.

We were behind the other groups for a day of filming we ended up having a great time, during the editing stops we all told jokes so we would laugh and we wouldn’t laugh on camera and put us more behind.

In the end Antonio (from a different group) helped Jordan do last minute editing and the credits while everyone else was packing up to go home.

Even though the movie didn’t come out like we planed I had a great time going about making the movie and acting in it. I learned a lot about filming using an iPod touch and about a program called movie maker on it.

All and all it was a great making a movie even if I wasn’t with my friends, I made new ones.

My Opinion on The Harry Potter books

20 08 2011

If you don’t know the Harry Potter books are a fantastic series of seven books by a British author J.K Rowling. The books are about three young wizards called Harry Potter, (The Boy Who Lived) Ron Weasly (Best friend) and Hermione Granger (Other best Friend). Harry has black hair blue eyes and a scar on his forehead. Ron has red hair brown eyes and lots of freckles. Hermione has brown curly hair blue eyes and is super smart.

Basically Harry gets a letter from Hogwarts School of Witch Craft and Wizardry telling him to come to the school. Albus Percival Wulfric Brian Dumbledore is the principle and order of Merlin first class, Chief Warlock of the Wizenmangot, discovered the 12 uses of dragon’s blood, defeated the Dark Wizard Grindelwald, and is considered the greatest wizard of all time The school is completely hidden from Muggles (non-magic folk) and has lots of shielding charms on it. How to get there you ask well there is a thing called the Hogwarts express and you go to Platform nine and three quarters to get on the train. There are three houses in Hogwarts Gryffindor, Hufflepuff, Ravenclaw, and Slytherin.

The main plot line is that there is an evil wizard called Lord Voldemort or Tom Riddle. He wants to kill all the Muggles and take over the wizarding world. After Harry was born Voldemort killed his parents and tried to kill Harry as well but his killing curse didn’t work.

(Note Harry’s scar.)

To me the Harry Potter books are one of the best book series in the world, and that J.K is a superbly excellent writer. I love the series because they are well written have an interesting plot line and are the best books ever. They are boos for all ages and are fantastic reads. Click here for more information.
