Earth Day videos & Rubric

Yesterday, we had to grade 2 videos from the Earth Day Project. I graded and Alex's 7th grade and 12th grade. They were both very interesting, they had good music and they had interesting and cool images. Although most of the pictures they got them from the internet, I really think they did a great job! I honestly liked more the 12 grade one, because it had more details the rubric was asking. Like the music. Now that I fully saw the rubric I would have change many things. Small details, first I would have change my song. I would had recite a poem, it would have been more easy. Also, our tone voice, wasn't very clear that's why we are probably having some trouble in our grade. The Earth Video Projects were a total success.

Enviromental Issues

The most serious environmental issue that the world is facing right now, is rain forest destruction. Now in days, people are destroying many beautiful and important forests all over the world. Our rainforests are being destroying for many particular reasons, but the most is because of industries. One and one-half acres of rainforest are lost every second with tragic consequences for both developing and industrial countries. Industries like We are losing Earth's greatest biological treasures just as we are beginning to appreciate their true value. Rainforests once covered 14% of the earth's land surface; now they cover a mere 6% and experts estimate that the last remaining rainforests could be consumed in less than 40 years. Rainforests are being destroyed because the value of rainforest land is perceived as only the value of its timber by short-sighted governments, multi-national logging companies, and land owners. Nearly half of the world's species of plants, animals and microorganisms will be destroyed or severely threatened over the next quarter century due to rainforest deforestation. We seriously need to take care of all of our forests. We need to be more considerate. We should recycle, reuse and reduce. There's people, that waste a lot of paper without thinking that all of those papers are dead trees. The beauty, majesty, and timelessness of the rainforests are indescribable. It is impossible to describe in words, or to explain to those who have never had the awe-inspiring experience of standing in the heart of a rainforest. But we really need to do something, to stop this big issue. If I could do something to help this issue, I would do many groups, to stop this. I would do recycle, and reuse the same papers. I would really try this to work. Remember this is not impossible, be the change you want to see in the world -Ghandi.

Earth Day Video

For Computer Class we had to make a video about Earth Day, which was one of the most interesting and fun projects I've ever done! My partner is Ximena. We planned everything with a lot of anticipation and our project went great! We thought about many different songs, like World Hold On, Love Generation but the one that we finally chose was Send It On-Disney Channel. It is a song, that talks about the change we want to see in the world. It talks about Be the change you want to see in the world. It is a very emotive song, it talks about all the beautiful things that a different world can have. We recorded with our voices, although we aren't great singers we tried our best and it sounded OK. We made the video at El Tigre. We painted our faces with a heart that symbolized love in the world and we made a peace sign that symbolizes that we want peace and freedom in our world. We took many pictures about nature and we put them in the video. We took pictures about animals, and plants. They are very beautiful. I don't think our project is going to win, because its not that original, but the good thing is that is symbolizes mother nature, and the change people want in the world.

Spring Break

My Spring Break, was great! It was probably one of the best I've ever had.
I did many things. Every day I was very active and occupied. I had friends that came from Guadalajara and Mexico City, and Tepic. The first week of Spring break I went to the Beach, to El ETC. in Nuevo Vallarta. I was there were my friends hanging out, and having lots of fun! I stayed there from 12 to like 6 O clock.
I got a very cool tan. Then I got back from the beach, and I went to my house, to get a shower and go to work to my dad's restaurant. Jaja I know what are you guys thinking.. uh yeah that's very fun.. well it is! I have a lot of fun working at the restaurant and meeting new people. The next day, I just went to my friends house and hang out with them. We went to the movies, to the beach, and on the nights I went to night clubs with my sister. We had a lot of fun. My sister Alejandra was here, she came from Guadalajara because shes studying at college right now, so I was very glad to see her here in Puerto Vallarta. We gossip and talk everyday and it was very fun.
On the next week, she went back to school, because in her university she only gets one week off. I missed her, that week because when she was here we spent the hole day in the beach, or in the movies etc. But I was glad that she came back that weekend because on the weekend we had a wedding. That week wasn't very interesting I just spent time with my family. I played with my little sister, and I hang out with my cousins and worked at my dad's restaurant. The only good thing of that weekend was that there were no more tourists, because the week before literally was CROWDED. If I look back to the week before, Vallarta was crowded seriously I'm not kidding.
The week of Easter I didn't get to see my friends from school, which I didnn't like much. That was probably one of the bad things of my break. Then when the weekend approach, my sister came back from Guadalajara. We had a wedding here in Puerto Vallarta. It was at the Westin Regina, and the party was ESPECTACULAR. It was the most amazing party i've ever gone. I had so much fun, I danced a lot with some friends and my family. There I met some new people, and that made my break to be wonderful. The next day it was Sunday, and I had to get ready because on Monday I was comming to School. My Spring Break, was one of the bests I've ever had, no doubt.

If I was stuck with not a single soul. I wouldn't handle being alone with not a single soul for 7 days. What I would probably do, is.. I would think of many different things to entertain myself. First I would learn how to play an instrument. I can have loads of fun by learning how to play a musical instrument such as guitar, drums, trumpet, etc. Second, I would find a hobby I like. such as knitting, writing, cards, making bracelets, etc. I think probably I would create the bracelets, they are way more fun then knitting. If I got way to bored by doing these activities I would do the hobby whenever you have nothing else to do. I would try to carry it around with me if it is portable. Then I would write a song in my mind.

Hum different tunes and then use my fingers as I was on a piano. Even, I would find something in the room and try to write lyrics about it. Then I would try to do what I never do. I would try stretching. The kind of stuff I would do before a long running race. I never practice any sport, so probably this would be a great idea. Last but not least I would Try to find the longest hair on my head. Maybe this sounds silly, but its actually very entertaining. What you need to do is to pull them out if you want to (you have 100,000 and you lose about 100 a day anyway).
But we should be aware to not pull out too many. As you may seen if I spent 7 days without seeing a soul I would probably become nuts.

Seriously I need to see souls in my life! Life its too boring without people surrounding you. When you are with people you can laugh, play, do many different jokes. Remember that being alone and not having friends its too boring. Also don't forget that if you are ever too bored, and you don;t have any clue of what do to, just read this, it will help you figure it out!

Final Flash Animation

8th Grade RotoBall from mistermark on Vimeo.

Creating my rotball was probably one of the harderst things I've ever experience. Flash is a very complicated and I had a very hard time doing my project. My projected started with the ball going everyone, then I catched it, and I started throwing the ball to many different places. I used motion tweens, which I thought i was very complicated. Also, I had trouble when I had to move the ball to different places. Although my background was pretty cool actually. It was a park with a slide and swings. If I could have change something it would probably be when I traced me in the video. I was in a bit rush, so it qas kind of messy. Also I would have put some music, to make it more interesting. Seriously I didn't liked this project it was too complicated.
