Thing 4c

I could use and image or animation generator to make my school projects look better. They could add the extra bit of pazazz that my project would've needed, or they could make my project more interesting to watch. Making an image could help my work to make more sense. Image/ animation generators are also good for home life. They may be crated for entertainment or to inform someone of something theyt didn't know in a way that will trick them into listening. In all, image and animation generators are good for many different reasons.

Thing 4b

Based on the fact that we've been reading the Canterbury tales in my English class.

Thing 3: Flickr part 2

In the Flickr tour, I learned how to upload, edit, share and do many more things with my pictures. I learned that Flickr can help me share pictures with people all over the world. I can upload pictures of my family and edit them into card, calender, or any number of different things. If I were to upload pictures onto Flickr, I would keep any that reveal my personal details (Ex:my address) private. If the picture didn't reveal too much about my life, I would allow anyone to view it. If the picture is entertaining and doesn't cause any harm then why not share it with the world?

thing 3: Flickr part 1

http://www.flickr.com/photos/briberry/3128592627/

I chose to write about this particular picture because I am a big fan of Briberry (the photographer). Briberry draws Alice, the mad hatter and many other Disney characters and posts them on Deviantart.com. She also draws the illustrations in the webstory "When Curiosity Met Insanity." In one scene of the story, Hatter gets very jealous because Peter Pan asks Alice to dance. In this photo, The Disneyland Characters are recreating the jealousy that hatter felt. Briberry has a talent for capturing the magical moments of Disneyland and the fun that the characters are always having. I always enjoy when a new batch of pictures are uploaded to Flickr because even though I can't visit Disneyland for a while, Briberry allows me to enjoy the magic.

Thing 1: Creativity

There are many ways to be creative in today's world.There are many ways to be creative:from drawing to writing a story. With the access to computers, it is easy to create maginificent pieces of digital artwork that would of been impossible to make before. It also easier to make videos that display your love of acting, singing, or any number of passions that you may have. With the Internet, not only is it easy to create , but it's also easier to share with people all over the world. When the Internet is involved, there is a new level of criticism that one will have to put up with. Anyone can view what you post on the internet and it's more than likely that someone will dislike what you have done. From personal experience I have learned that people can be very judgemental on the Internet .They think it's okay to say whatever they feel like because they'll never have to encounter you in the real world. I realize that most of these people are only trying to make me see how I could improve, and I welcome their honest opinions. With this in mind, I try to make my work better because I know that it's not only my opinion that matters. While one might create a piece, they are not the one who truly finishes it. The viewer is the one who sees it and adds their own opinions and makes it what they want to be.
