Inside Troublemaker Studios

Hey everyone!
Today in Tech Trends we watched two 10 minutes video's from Troublemaker Studios. They were about how to make music for the movies they make and showed us all the editing they did in Spy Kids 2. It was really cool! I learned lots of things. First, I had no idea they even did THAT much editing in the Spy Kids movies. I also learned how they made the music- just by playing random things on the piano or guitar and changing the instrument type. Another thing I learned was that you can copy the setting and then change the people in the setting, so that it looks like it's different, but it's really exactly the same. I thought those video's were really neat!
Later!

My Inspiration iMovie Plans

Hey everyone!
For my inspiration project I decided to do my older brother, BJ. He inspires me because all through his high school career, which he is just about finished with, he has been pressured into many things, but hasn't gave in even though it's very, very hard. I want to be just like him in the sense that he doesn't give in other students pressure him with. I plan to interview him at my house either tonight or Monday because I have to leave right after school tomorrow and will be gone the entire weekend. I'm thinking about me saying some things he has gone through, in the beginning of the movie, then have him start "giving advice". While that audio is playing I will probably show pictures of what me and him are saying. Then, I might add a video of him, or something at the end. I also want to use different camera angles and all the stuff we have learned so far in our tech trends class. So, that's about it... for now.
