Hockney Style Joiners

Well I'm back from a three day weekend, it seemed like a long weekend but it was actually pretty short. Anyways, the latest project my G.T. class is working on is photomontages. Now, I'm gonna tell you why David Hockney's photomontages are different from mine. First my photomontages are beginner pictures. I'm kind of getting a hang of this photomontage thing... From the looks of his photos it seems like he spends a lot of time on his work and it looks well thought out. I feel like his photos have more meaning, and theres something special about the photos. We all have different ideas about what we our photomontages to look like, so I think thats why I our photomontages are different.

Lots of different photos have different meanings, they can be positive or negative. First I'll start with positive, positive means good or no doubts. So on Instagram I see a lot of positive pictures, like #prayforparis of other things for like friends of communities. Even though theres a lot of positive pictures there is also negative photos. When I go on Instagram some people say things about other people that they won't have the guts to say to there face. People also say bad things about other people that might not be true, or they might post bad pictures.

Well my picture is a soccer ball, so I want people to see my picture meaningful because I love soccer. Our photomontage is supposed to be a picture of something meaningful or special to you. Soccer is special to me because I've been playing it since 2009, over the years I've become a more passionate player. The message I want to send is a positive message saying I really love soccer and I wouldn't know what to do without it. soccer is my go-to, whenever I get bored or I don't want to do anything else I go outside and play soccer. Hopefully people can see how much I love soccer, and maybe they can try it out someday.

2016 Aspirations

Well here we are again, back at school. After a long break I get to start a new semester and quarter. First I will start with five goals I want to achieve in 2016. My first goal is to become a better soccer player and score more goals. I always so close to scoring goal. Second I want to be able to rope just as good as my cousin. My cousin always wins rodeos. Third I want to be able to take nice and creative photos. I want my Instagram to look more artsy. Fourth I want to have good editing skills. I also want to make nice videos for my Instagram. Lastly I want to get A's in the classes I get B's in. I want to become a straight A student, I'm always like one or two B's away from an A. Hopefully I will succeed in getting these goals done.

The goal I want to achieve the most is editing. I want to be able to have good editing skills. Achieving this goal is important to me because my cousins and aunty have a business called a clan called chaos. They fly drones over Kauai and make edits, they also make commercials for local businesses. I want to become like them and be good at what they do. Maybe someday I can work with them or start my own company. I want to be able to make edits as good as them and hopefully become famous for edits.I also want to learn how to make good edits because it seems like everyones doing it, it's also a good way to show the videos I take with my GoPro.

I really want to achieve this goal. To make sure I succeed I'm going to make steps or ways I can learn. The first way I can learn is by watching my aunty and cousins edit a video. They do mostly nature. I want to be able to edit under water beach edits. None of them don't really swim but my brother is really good at edits too!! He says it takes practice, so I'm gonna edit a bunch of videos until I know what I want it to look like or until I get better. He also said he learned from the internet. First I have to choose an app to use. My brother personally uses the GoPro app but my cousins use iMovie or Final Cut Pro. I want to use iMovie because I have more experience with it. Hopefully my plans for being more better at editing videos is useful and works.
