“How does media violence affects kids”
Media in this century has become another member of every family I the world. In every house there is a television, computer, video games etc. Children have access to all this devices, in television there are hundreds of channels and kids have access to all of them. In the computer thanks to the internet kids can access to anything you can imagine. Videos had become very violent in the last few years, in which you can see a lot of blood, stabbing, fighting, and stealing.

In this film the director use lighting to show the audience what is coming up, good things or bad things. the techniques the director uses foreshadow to give an idea of what is going to happen.

Eduard: In his advertisement I told him to put more focus in how these ads are going to affect young children with kind of advertisement and why this has to be for everyone. I saw that he didn’t put focus on this and he was just reflecting in how this game is going to attract adults.

Blog_8 Museum of Moving Image

I haven’t been to museum lately, and it’s been the first time I go to the museum of moving image and i really like it. First I thought it was going to be boring, but when I went in change my mind. I learn a lot of things, like how were videogames create and how it has been updating since the first one that came out. I also learn the special effects that the use in the movies and how some characters are simple robots. The ones that I like were from the movie “The Exorcist” and “Nightmare on Elm Street”. They look so real that I was a little shock. It’s so crazy how cameras have evolution from carrying a heavy camera to video camera lightest as a cell phone. I definitely will go back to this museum is an experience you wouldn’t forget you will have a lots of fun, and this museum proves is fun and cool.
