Today, we edited our pictures.
We could not find the movie that we made last lesson,
so we decided to make new one.
We made last lesson, so we could make easier and faster.

Here are some pictures that we took last lesson and 2 weeks ago:

I think if I use pen fo background, it will be more clear
and also if we make face expression,
it will become more interesting.

Today, we were going to take photos and

edit our photos that we took last lesson and today.

The first half, we took photos and it was little bit difficult,

because the lights and direction should be the same as last lesson

as we did, and also it was difficult to make objects move.

The other half, we did editing. We used Angela’s laptop

and it was very diificult to edit, because

I have not made a movie before.  In the editing,

we had a problem. We zoomed each photo and we can’t change it.

The next lesson, we will edit again and also

we are thinking about ending and if we have time,

we will take photos for the ending.

Music evaluation

I chose a Japanese pop rock band called Aqua timez and

the song that I chose is Isshouseishun (一生青春).

It means “Lifetime youth”. Album from this song was taken and

release in August 24, 2005.

The name of album is “Soraippainikanaderuinori” (空いっぱいに奏でる祈り)

and it is their debut album. I like this song very much,

because I like lyrics a lot and melody is very memorable.

About this song

Instrument that they use are Vocals, guitar, bass, keyboard and drums. It is a high tempo and very rhythmical song, so if you listen this song, you can get power and also it is memorable especially Chorus part.

Mood

It relate to the mood of the song. It is a very cheerful song and high tempo, so we can get power and it makes you become positive.

Structure

 

This song’s structure is Instrumental riff, Verse1, Chorus, Instrumental, Verse2, Chorus, Bridge, Chorus, Instrumental riff. In the riff, they are using keyboards, guitar and bass and drums. Fist, keyboard, guitar and bass start to play, and then drums starts play.

Hook

This song has a hook. If it translates to English, it becomes “the new world when stepping toward a leg” and “child”. It repeats 2times each. The first one is from chorus, and second one is from verse1 and 2.

 

Was it hit?

It was used in commercial and it has a music video, but it is not famous, because they released 2005 and in that time, they were not famous.

 

Message and story

I think this song say that “let’s step forward one step like when you were child. If we live like that, your life becomes more fun”. The message of the song was delivered in an effective way, for example they use title and lyric effectively.

 

 

This is a song that i chose:

This is a video that they playing the other song:

This term, we are going to making movies.

We decided what we are going to make and how to make it.

Our group decided to make a model using plasticine clay and

we use paper for background.

The title is “Happy face escape”.  

 

1weeks ago, we made a happy faces
and some backgrounds,
so the last lesson,
we made rest of back ground and
take a pictures.
It was difficult to take a pictures,
because we have to move the model
slowly and make models moving
(same distance to other face models).

My Favorite Rock Band

I did not know any rock band, so I asked my mother.

My mother likes Beatles and she has CD, so

I listened to their song and I choose one song that I really liked.

What the best rock band ever?

My favorite rock band is Beatles and

I like melody and lyrics.

What is your favorite song?

My favorite song is “In my life”.

In my life is not spirited song, but not melancholy song.

The lyric is very nice and impressive.

Almost all songs are simple lyrics,

but I fell that their songs are wonderful.

The instrualmental and riff is very cool and

I think the riff is the best part of the song.

They use many instrumental and I can hear clearly.

Drama 08/07/12

Today, we learnt about dramatic tension.

It was a first drama lesson this year and we start new unit.

I was little bit scared, because Miss acted very well
beginning of lesson and it was fantastic.

I was strain while Miss was acting and I could know
that is very important for drama.

Next week I would like to know more about dramatic tension.

Drama evaluation

We tried to act mystery these 5 weeks.  I learned about how can I act my character well and I can know the side of actor.

My character

My character was Elsie the maid.

Her name is Elsie and her job is maid.

She works very well and usually she serves tea or café and cleaning the house.

Evaluation

 learned how can I understand my character and show it.

I think vice, moving and stage direction is the most important things in drama.

l   We have to change the voice when I act other character.

l   We have to move many times and do not standing all the time.

l   We have to look the audience and do not show back.

I could act better than first 6 weeks.

I think I could speak more and louder, and move more.

I could improve many things, so next lesson, I want to improve English and

I would like to enjoy and talk more.
