Verbal Landscapes



When I go outside to play me and my sister like to help my mom with are garden by watering it and putting new seeds in the ground. My mom has a lot of work so my sister and I help pull out weeds along with watering. Another way I interact with nature is when I go to the beach because I go surf and play there a lot. When ever I go to the beach or somewhere else I always have to pick a piece of trash or I feel just weird.Another way I interact with nature is when I go on a hike or bike ride, I love going on hikes because I feel like I can touch the sky because I'm so high up.

Timelapses are created by a normal video mode then in Final cut pro there is a retime editor that helps with slowing and speeding up your clips of video. With the retime editor you can make your clips as fast as you can like 5000 for speeding up a clip. For videoing you clips you need to keep the camera still because then if it moves it will be shaky when you make it a timelapses or slow-mo. In Final cut pro there is a on the left side of the screen that helps with reversing an slowing and speeding up different parts of your video clip.

In my Retime nature video one of my hardest parts was filming my timelapses because you camera has to stay still all through the time that you are filming. When you are done with the timelapses it is worth waiting because it will be your good timelapses video when you are done. In the Retime nature project my favorite part was editing and making the clips faster and slower to make the clips work with the amount of time that you have. Another hard part is getting the volume level the same with the rest of my audio. One other part that was one of my favorite things in the project was filming some parts because I saw the sunrise and sunset during this project.






In are critique session 13 people voted mine as exemplary and my classmates voted my retime nature video as 2nd place with Alexander Henriques. I was surprised that I got a lot of votes for exemplary in are class critique. In my video there were still some shots that were shake that I could of fixed. During are class critique I thought that I would have gotten three's with the shake shots but I fixed them as much as I could. When people were taking the time to grade mine I was really scared and surprised that mine was the tied with someone else's work or video but I agree because I put in my time and hard work to make it my best in the time I was given.

Poetic Personal Statement

Poetry is what you might be feeling inside, that you write down on something.  I think that poetry can be made into a song, such as a love songs or rap. People might say that that poetry is rhyming but it is a a way of expressing your inner feelings of  a person . Adults usual write poetry if their stressed about something. Poetry can sometimes express your feelings, emotions and personal goals in your lifetime.  

As the night sky roles around up so high, my fears turn into dreams.
When I see Nature theres always different behaviors.
When ever I fall deep asleep I think of the sea.
I'm always inspired by my drawing.
My friends are on their way, for me I stay in the bay.
In the ocean I can feel the way of the motion.
If I have a chance I get up and dance.
If i'm in a wave a have to be brave
Under the palm trees that's where I leave all my worries

The reason why I used rhythm in my Poetic Personal Statement project was because it relates to my life and who I am. Another reason why I used rhythm and rhyme was because it is can relate of how I have been living my life. In my Poetic Personal Statement project It can relate to how I feel. One other reason why I used rhythm I'm my project was because it could carry on how my life will be through the years.
