POST GRAD




Hey guys, today I am going to talk you about this comedy film that was released in 2009 by Vicky Jenson. Ryden Malby is the main character of this movie, where she is a young girl that had just graduated from college. She is a humble girl who is simple, honest and lovely. She is a girl who is looking for a job in Los Angeles. During the movie we can see how she experience some obstacles but where she got rid of them. This movie according to wikipedia during the opening weekend the film opened at number 11, grossing $2,651,996. This film received many critics. Most of the shots that had been used in this film are close ups, wide shots and extreme close ups, where we can see the details of the different scenarios where the movie took place such as schools, homes, markets etc. Also by the close ups we can see the reactions that the characters had during their problems and we can se how their emotions can change during their situations. I realized that many thins can happen during our lives, we don't know what could happen or what is going to happen in the future. Maybe you can have many plans in the future, but might be Gods wild that they should not be completed, so things can change for a good or bad situation, where we should accepted in any case. So maybe we can have a vision of our future, but in any moment things can happen and our lives can change completely. Sometimes also it can be hard to get what we want, but with support and confidence we can achieve them little by little and get what we want. Hope you realize the same as I did. :)

Cutaways

Cutaways is a way of technique that had been used in film making, it is an interruption of a continuously film action by a view of other thing.
In some cases the filmmaker uses this technique to help the editor to assemble a longer sequence, so thats why editors choose this technique related to the main action, such as another action or object in the same location. This technique is more common been use in drama movies, where they are adjust the pace to the main action to conceal the deletion of some unwanted part of the main shot. Not only in drama movies this technique is been use, it is also use in Horror films, where maybe tat first they would show you the face of a murder preparing for kill someone and then it change and shows you the person who is gonna die, and shows you how is gonna die.

Cheap by a dozen.

Hey guys, this time I am going to talk about this film that was created by Shawn Levy in 2003 and 2005. This film won 2 Oscars awards. This movie had a budget of $40.000 millions according to Wikipedia. We can see in this movie a big and great family that shared good and bad moments. This seven brothers started from fightings to hugs. We can see that life is wonderful, is a great gift that God had gave us. We should share our moments with our family, because they are the only ones that are going to be with you in bad and good times. If we have older brothers we should love them as little brothers. If we have little brothers we should take care of them every time, because they need our help. If we have older brothers we should love them a lot, because they know a little bit more about life. This movie "Cheaper By The Dozen" is a remake of the 1950 film based on Frank and Ernestine Gilbreth's book about growing up in a large family, according to a resource. This is a comedy film, where we can see most of the movie wide shots, because the director want to show us the hole family during the sets, where the entire family appears.

Poduction.

Production is the most important part od doing a movie. Where the cast and the crew mwmbers spend many hours in the set shooting parts of the movie. The films always are going to have different takes of a scene. Its because actors, actresses during the shooting of the scene, they can get confused or they can say wrong their dailog, or maybe the director doesnt like that scenes because of something, so thats why in film it exists differents takes of the same scene. During the production of a fil it might take hours, days, weeks, months, it depends on the movie, how the plot is presented or how manny things do the movie needs to be done. During this part of the movie the most important things that the director and the cast neeeds to pay attention is the lighting, the location, the weather, because this important things is what determines the movie.
In one word production can be told as shooting scenes.

13 going on 30.

Hi guys I would like to talk about this comedy film that was released in 2004 by Gary Winick. This movie show us how a 13 young girl wanted to be 30 young woman. She wanted to be a young woman because she wanted to make with her life whatever she wants. I think that most of teenagers want to grow up very fast and be an adult, just because they want to be free, to do whatever they want. I think that they want to be aduts because they can party everyday, the can drive, drink, they can buy whatever they want, and they can take any decision. I think that being a child id the ebst part of our lives, because you can do many things, and you pass a great time with your friends, is the best part where you only have in your mind studies.
The bad things of being adults is that you have to work to survive, you have to pay bills, you have many responsabilities. We should take advantage of our childhood and enjoy every moment with our friends, because is the best parto of ourlives which we would never forget.
