What is stop motion animation? If you don't know, look it up! Explain.

Stop motion anime is when you take a bunch of pictures and make it into a video for others to watch. What I mean by this is if you have a skittle pack and you use the skittles to make your stop motion then you would have your skittles become life-like. In the photos, you would move the skittles inch-by-inch until you have the skittles form a design that you wanted to see. These photos would move in order in the video so fast it would seem like the skittles can move themselves.  This is what I know about stop motion anime from my previous experience in photography.

Blog Post of the Day:
Tell me about your idea for your 5 frame story board. What is the plot? How do you plan to make the story creative? Who's the main character? What is the beginning, middle and end? Tell me about your plan of attack.

My five frame storyboard is about coming to Emerging Technologies class. The plot of this story is my regular day at the 7th hour classroom. The first frame is me walking into class. The second frame is me sitting at the computer. The third frame storyboard picture is me logging on. Th fourth storyboard picture is me going to BV business and the last storyboard picture is me blogging. This story is creative because it shows what I do in my life each day Monday to Friday.

Yesterday you edited and uploaded photos to your blog. Tell me more about your photos. HOW did you edit them? Why did you choose the photos that you did? Explain your assignment

Yesterday was great because we got to improve the pictures that we were awesome enough to take ourselves. I had to do this for my Emerging Technologies class. The first picture I decided to take and edit was the Wet Floor sign. What I did to this picture is I made the sign change from yellow to orange and made the background darker in order to emphasize the sign's appearance. The second picture that I took and edited was the class competition sign. I decided to make the sign a bit brighter and add lightness to the background. The third picture I took and edited was the picture of an eye. What I did to this picture was I added a blue color to the eye and decided to make the picture crystallize. The fourth picture I took and edited was a picture of a hallway. What I did to this picture was I made the brick wall a lighter red and made the ceiling darker. The other thing I did to this picture was I made the guy waving stand out more. The last picture I edited was a picture of a school medal. What I did was I made the medal a orange color and made the floor darker. I chose these pictures because I thought that they would look very cool edited.

Tell me about your weekend - details please!

My weekend was fabulous because I got to sleep and watch Doctor Who. Friday night was great because I got to bed and slept till 2 in the afternoon on Saturday. When I awoke I cooked my lunch and ate divine corn dogs and french fries. After I ate I got to play Black Ops 2 with a friend and then we watched Doctor Who. I got caught up in all of season eight and watched the Doctor save are world. Once I caught up I went to bed and slept till 10 AM and when I was awake I did my homework and got to go out shopping. I went to Walmart and bought the newest Percy Jackson book and a case for my new D.S. After that I had the privilege of getting a nice hair cut and then I went home. At home I played on my D.S. and went to bed.

What do you know about photography and/or photo editing? Do you take photos? How do you take photos? Do you edit photos before posting them on social media? How do you edit them? Explain any background or knowledge you have about photography and photo editing. Do you like it? Do you have any interest?

What I know about photography is that it is a form of art that allows an individual to express themselves through the pictures they take. I know that you can edit photos and remove things like zits or red eyes and make the background express the object or person in the picture. How I take photos is I zoom in and make sure the picture is not blurry and then I take the shot. I always edit photos before putting them on social media sites because it makes the picture better and stand out more. I use the options on social media sites like Instagram to edit them. Some background knowledge I have in photography is last year when I had to do a stop motion project with a deck of cards and I always take the photos when i'm on vacation with my family. I like photography and find it very fun to do.
