If you were to make a movie what would it be like

If i were to make a movie it would be more of a comedy and a drama movie. Comedy is like my favorite thing to watch because i love laughing. My movie would definitely have my best friend Jessica Norton in it because we have some crazy fun times together.

My intro would have to do with me having a friend over (Jessica Norton) and us wanting to go play in the snow when we got a lot of it, we wanted a snow fort but then we realized how hard it was to build it so then we begged my brother to do it for us so that we could have fun after he was done. The funny part to this is that after he was done building the fort we were to cold to stay outside and actually sit in it so then he ended up building it for nothing, but he was okay with it.

My main characters would be my brother Jeffrey, Myself, and Jessica but if she doesn’t want to be in it we can find a replacement because she doesn’t like to be in front of the camera. For my brother he would be more of the laid back type of person willing to do anything to get the job done. For me I would be the type of person to have fun and I don’t care what other people think, and Jess would be the type of person to have fun and be out going as long as know one seen her do it, I’m just kidding she actually wouldn’t care.

The soundtrack would have to be the kind of music you would find when someone is doing hard work like my brother did because he did an excellent job at building and then the kind of music that you would listen to if you just sat back and watched.

I think that Jessica could be the director because she knows how to get the job done and she is the type of person to be responsible enough to do these types of things. 
I was influenced by this idea because it is pretty much a true story about the good times me and Jessica have spending together and how we can get my brother to do pretty much anything for us.

I don’t think there would be a sequel to my movie because it is like a one time and one time only type of thing to happen.

TV Commercials/ Public Service Announcements

Commercial

1.)http://www.superbowl-ads.com/

Was about a guy trying to teach the group of people how to fight off someone if they tried to steal their sierra mist.

It went from a close up to a wide shot of everyone it had a lot of medium shots and a lot of close ups. There were not many wide shots.

I didn’t like it because it actually show you anything it just showed everyones reaction to what he was trying to tell them and they all looked confused.

I think the commercial it targeting everyone that like sierra mist.

2.)http://www.veryfunnyads.com/

This Commercial is about what the water Evian has on your baby. The babies are not acting like babies are suppose to act. They are skating around and doing tricks.

it went from CU, MS, WS, WS. MS, WS, MS, CU and Dolly to MS, CU, MS, WS, WS to CU, MS, WS, CU, WS, MS,

I liked it because I think it is trying to say that it is good for your kids and helps give them energy.

I think its targeted for adults to let them know what is good for them and everyone around them.

3.) http://superbowlads.fanhouse.com/2010/sketchers-shape-up/

It was about sketchers shoes that help tone your legs and aline your back.

MS, CU, MS, WS, CU in to a MS, WS.

I liked it because they showed a wide variety of shots and they set across what they were trying to advertise and sell.

I think that it was targeted towards everyone that wants to get into shape

PSA

1.)www.netsmartz.org/resources/psas.htm

Its Bout family concern. They are showing how dangerous it can be to chat online with someone and make plans to go meet up with them when they are not who you think they are.

It starts out as a WS, they goes in to MS, Then zooms into a CU,

I liked it because they proved a point about what teens do these days on the internet that they don’t realize what they are getting into.

I think its targeting parents to let them know what there child could be getting into.

2.) http://www.netsmartz.org/resources/psas.htm

Its about what people tell you they will do for you on the internet but they never keep that promise, it shows that teens believe everything that someone tells them on the internet.

It shows a lot of cuts from MS to CU

I liked it because not everyone can believe what they see or hear from someone they don’t know.

I think its targeted toward teenagers that do believe everything that they are told from people that they think they can trust but really they cant.

3.http://today.msnbc.msn.com/id/26184891/vp/32549978#32549978

Its shows people how bad texting is while driving. A girl is driving and texting with her friends she gets hit and she is the only one that survives in the car.

There are a lot of close ups and it is very graphic they have wide shots and medium shots as well.

I think it was targeted toward teens because they are the ones that like to text the most while driving

A PSA and commercial are different because i commercial they are trying to advertise things that they want to sell and in a PSA they are trying to encourage you do things or not to do things,

The Princess Bride

In the Princess Bride the movie was about a girl (Buttercup) that fell in love with a farm boy, they wanted to get married but did not have the money, so the farm boy (Westly) left to try and make money. Turns out Buttercup gets a message that he had died. She went on for years believing this and a prince came along and said that they were going to get married, Buttercup was not in love with him. She finds out that Westly is not dead so she tries to escape but the prince catches them and tries to kill whestly. But he never dies. on the day of the wedding Westly has no strength so it is hard to fight. he ends up saving Buttercup and leaving with the giant and Inigo Montoya. The giant is the one that has all of the strength and is there to break down things and break through things. Inigo has been trying to find the man that killed his father for 20 years and at the end he does and he killed him.

In the movie i liked how Westly end up coming back to save Buttercup. i liked the acting accept when it took forever to get the fighting parts to get good. the characters were funny in some parts and sometimes they didn’t make sense to what they were doing.

imgres.jpg

This year i would change the fighting parts and make them more to this day. i liked the movie a lot for it being the first time i had seen it so i wouldn’t change anything right now.

Christmas Specials

My top 3 favorite movies that have to do with christmas are

#3 is home alone 4 because its like the rest of them you always know that there will be some bad people that are wanting to find a way to get into a house. Its always the little boy that is there to save the day but when he goes to tell people they wont believe him even though in the end they do find out its been the truth the whole time.

#2 is how the Grinch Stole Christmas because the main character (the Grinch) does not like christmas at first but then he ends up winning an award and everyone in the town tries to get him to like christmas. But then bad memories come to his mind and he destroys the town.

TheGrinch.jpg

#1 is Christmas with the Kranks this is my number one because its about a family that wants to skip christmas for a year because their daughter isn’t coming home for christmas. Everyone starts hating them, and its putting a lot of stress on them. The day before they go on their vacation their daughter calls and says she is coming home for christmas. They start freaking out then they have to scramble to get everything at last minuet.

What is so good about TV anyways?

TV can sometimes be educational, in some ways its can have comedy. You don’t always need your cable or  satellite to have all of these things. In my house hold i have your basic TV with the converter box.

I get both my favorite comedy and educational like abc 12 and fox 66. Fox 66 has all my favorite TV shows like two and a half men that is one of my favorite night time shows. One of my favorite actors that is in a lot of comedy movies is Adam Sandler he has some of the best movies that are comedy. Like I said that two and half men is one of my favorite shows this is because the people in this show do some funny things and they don’t know how to make up for it they just make some very bad choices that are funny. I like ABC also because they have your favorite TV shows everyday and new seasons as well.

This is what i think is good about TV today.
