Willow- Opening Sequence

A tilt is a vertical camera movement in which the camera points up or down from a stationary location. For example, if you mount a camera on your shoulder and nod it up and down, you are tilting the camera.

Tilting is less common than panning because that's the way humans work — we look left and right more often than we look up and down.

The tilt should not be confused with the Dutch Tilt which means a deliberately slanted camera angle.

A variation of the tilt is the pedestal shot, in which the whole camera moves up or down.

The term tracking shot is widely considered to be synonymous with dolly shot; that is, a shot in which the camera is mounted on a cart which travels along tracks.

However there are a few variations of both definitions. Tracking is often more narrowly defined as movement parallel to the action, or at least at a constant distance (e.g. the camera which travels alongside the race track in track & field events). Dollying is often defined as moving closer to or further away from the action.

Some definitions specify that tracking shots use physical tracks, others consider tracking to include hand-held walking shots, Steadicam shots, etc.

Other terms for the tracking shot include trucking shot and crabbing shot.

Yesterday morning I created a Opening sequence DLO about camera effects. This was going to help the people who stayed here at school learn about different types of effects on the camera. I put in camera effects and definitions of 2 of the most important camera effects. Willow was actually a cool movie because it was based on fantasy and also it was broad casting a little baby princess getting saved from the evil queen Bavmorda.

Yesterday Morning half of LS2 were left to do some exciting work. Altogether we watch a movie called Willow at first we checked out the willow website where it took us to a bunch of different documents that were our Evaluation. These Documents were their for putting down the character information of the introduction we were going to listen to. When we started watching the movie we all thought about what our Prologue was going to be. This was really fun because this activity was based on fantasy.  Also this movie told us character narratives and a story based on a princess getting saved from an evil queen. We watched this movie until the afternoon came. This movie teached us about different camera effects like Long wide shot, Shoulder shot, Low shot, Tilt shot. 

New York DLO

In Reading I created this DLO Showing all the different a landmarks that I would like to visit if I was in New York. The places that surround New York that i am most interested in visiting is the Empire of state building, statue of liberty, China  town, Little Italy, Manhattan which is obervously a city in New York, Central park, Broadway. I really liked this activity because it was interesting to find out places that surround New York city. 

Read theory Blogpost

Today in Read theory I read Luna moth this articaul tells me facts about the Luna moth. This was really interesting because I didn know that there were moths with green wings so I found this quite strange.  I found out that this moth belongs to a family that is slightly larger then other butterfly families. 

3D designs

Today in Graphics I created a 3D person from Tinker cad. Tinker cad teached me a lesson of how to create and think of 3D designs which was Incredible. Today I didn´t get to finish my creation I was thinking of creating a 3D design of my sister. 

Apostrophes DLO

In Writing Mrs Aś group learnt about Apostrophes we all created a DLO showing an example of an Apostrophe when to use them in a sentence. Apostrophes and contractions are both different but in the same group. Contraction is when 2 words that are together but shortened an Apostrophe goes where the missing letter is.

An apostrophe is a punctuation because they are both symbols but have a different meaning. 

Diagram of a bridges around the world

This Diagram shows the information of the Millau Viaduct. I chose this bridge because it look interesting and I wanted to learn more about it. You can find this bridge destination in France. 
I found out that this bridge was made of reinforced concrete which was really interesting to know. It was really interesting to know that this bridge the size of its length was 2,460 m.
I also found out that this bridge spans over gorge valley and that its clearance below is 274m.

Bridge cartoon

In inquiry this term me and Viva have been collaborating with each other brain storming ideas for our story board animation that tells the story of the first bridge and second panmure bridge been built. Before bridges were invented people used to travel across the tamaki river on a punt which was really difficult because sometimes there would be bad weather and other times the punt would flip over. Then in 1865 the first panmure bridge was built out of wood, logs that came from the trunk of the kauri tree. This bridge only lasted for a small period of time and then collapsed into pieces. This is when engineers thought that building a bridge out of wood will not support the bridge because wood was not the type of material that bridge builders wouldn´t normally use anymore. So comparing the busted down bridge they thought that they needed a more stronger material. The next pile of material was concrete that came from Sydney Australia on a ship. This made bridge building a little more complicated because they needed to pay for the bridge. Wants payments went into building/ Constructing the second panmure bridge they needed help to build the bridge. They needed a crane to put down the materials and ships to bring the materials on. Wants the bridge was completed it was opened on the 14th of October 1916 when Prime minister William Massey drove over the bridge with a steam roller. 

Venn Diagram of the Panmure bridges- Comparing bridges

Today in Inquiry me and Viva worked collaboratively together to create a diagram comparing materials that engineers used to make the first panmure bridge and the bridge that still exists today.  In our Venn Diagram we included things like materials that were used to build our 2 bridges and similar things that make up the bridge. 2 pictures to show our comperance to the bridge in 1865 and the bridge that still exist today. We manage to find all the details that we needed. One of our facts is what were the piles made from well they were made from reinforced concrete which was built when it was low tied.  What was the first bridge and the bridge that still lives today made of it was really easy to find out what type of material it was made of. The type of material that the panmure bridges were made of was wood and reinforced concrete.  

Read Theory blogpost

This afternoon I went onto read theory and read wedding tradition this paragraph told me the traditional style of a wedding. I was interested about this part of tradition because every culture has a different wedding celebration or setting.  Because in NZ and Australia and places like that we have normal wedding traditions. My goal is to read more so that I can get better at my reading skills.

Read theory blogpost

This afternoon I went onto read theory to practice my reading skills. Read theory helps me a lot because it teaches me research and helps me read well. I like read theory because it helps me with my learning and helps me learn about paragraphs, research and my reading knowledge. 
My goal is to get a higher rate in read theory and get a higher progress in reading.

Duffy Assembly

Today in Duffy Assembly we got to meet a professional comic book artist name Michel he is a illustrator who draws comic pictures and loves reading. Today in Assembly Michel told us about his life of being a wrestler and a artist. He showed us a variety of different comic books that he has illustrated this was and inspiration for him to learn growing up in childhood. He told us about being a professional at video games and presenting New Zealand at a gaming arena in front of  20,000 people. We enjoyed learning about his childhood and representing New Zealand as a wrestler and gamer. Michel is not a big fan of fornite but is a fan of tekkan it was really great learning about his hobbies of video games and art and him trying new things.

Wheel Words

Today in Reading I practiced wheel words this was a great way to learn and practiced new words and learn the meanings of these new words. This activity helped me learned about new words and meanings. This gives me inspiration about hard words between the words that I know. 

Basic facts boxes to Hundred

Today in Maths I practiced my basic facts to hundred. During maths I got all answers correct this meant I was getting good at my basic facts. This went in 2 different ways one way I did addition and the other subtraction. 

This was a good way to practise my basic facts so that I don't get confused when trying other strategies. 

Read Theory Progress

Today during Writing I went onto read theory to practise my reading skills and answer questions better. This week I have been reading what is it like to be bullied by another student at school. And read the paragraph until I fully knew the answers this week my question challenges I got all right. 

My Goal is to get the questions right and read carefully through the text so that I don't get confused.

VR Research

Today during Maths I was picked to have a go at doing ventral reality. This was a fun and exciting activity to do because I got to build a bridge and deliver letters across a bridge that I built. I used Google cardboard to see the vision of building bridges across one side of the river to the other.

Thanks to Yvonne's team for helping us do this fun activity. 

Wheel Words blogpost

Today in reading I learn't new words and practicing how many words I could get. I came up with 34 words on my test on wheel words. This was a good opportunity to learn new words and finding out that some of the words that I haven't used before this was great because it was a good way to learn different phrases this term in reading.

Trip to the Orchestra trip

Today's trip was to the Auckland Hall to watch a group of musicians and performances. It was really amazing to see a group of people performing a fabulous item. The interments that were included were the trumpets, trombone, tuba, french horn, brass and a triangle.
The wooden interments that were included in this orchestra was a flute, oboe, bassoon, picoala, clarinet, percussion, Drums, Cynbols and the string interments were violin, viola, cello, ba double bass.
Many of the music that we heard were conducted by the conductor and were also played by one of the opera singers.
This was amazing because all performances that we watched were going in order and sounded outstanding.
what I learnt from the Orchestra was that the Conductor is the guide who guides the musicians with the music volume of loud/soft/ slow and fast.
Some of the musicians played in different parts of the show this teached me how a orchestra works like what time do other musicians play there music or if performances are dancing.
Thanks to St Kent college and Ngatapawae for performing a amazing item.
And also thanks to all of the people who were preforming great music to all schools.
Thanks to Mrs Anderson, Miss Caroline, Alex's mum, Mrs Linda and also the guides there for supporting us today.
