RECOUNT

Recount
“Errr” suddenly our truck stopped. My family and I raced out the car, we have stopped in a forest that looked familiar.
“Can it be” I asked in my head as my thoughts blew up “after all these times we have passed the road are we actually here.”  We were at adventure forest in whangarei on saturday. My heart bursted with excitement I could of just screamed out joy but that would've been embarrassing

As we all ran up to the entrance we patiently waited to be approached by one of their staff. After a while we were accompanied by a lady she told us all there specials, equipped us with what we need and told us what we needed to do to keep us safe.

When the lady had finished helping and teaching us everything it was now our time to try as much courses as we could.

We started bottom first “Oh these are too easy” I yelled then as we climbed higher and higher up the courses it started to get harder and scarier. As a few courses passed it came to adventure one of the highest, that was just a bit scary. Then came to vertigo slightly higher but that one was mostly flying foxes. Last one that we did was challenge.

Climbing up that ladder my heart beat and beat it was around about ten+ feet off ground. They expected you to walk across x’s that were like swings in the air and ride across on a skateboard that you balance on. “ Oh hell no” I yelled. But as I turned around there when no escapes I was trapped I had to do it or else I would have to go all the way back . So I kept going. After a few minutes that felt as if they were hours I had finally finished the course I quickly said “Thank you” and we all left back to the truck and headed off home.

Oh what a day we had one of the funniest / scariest days of my life. My favourite course was challenge it was the most challenging and scary course. Next time I am going to try adrenaline and acrobat. What an awesome day.

NARRATIVE

“Errr” suddenly their truck stopped. Rata and her family raced out the car, they had stopped in a forest that looked familiar to Rata.
“Can it be” she asked in her head as her  thoughts blew up “After all these times we have passed the road are we actually here.”  She questioned. They were at adventure forest in whangarei on saturday. Rata’s heart bursted with excitement she could of just screamed out joy but that would've been embarrassing (for her).

As they all ran up to the entrance they patiently waited to be approached by one of the staff. After a while they were accompanied by a lady she told them all there specials, equipped them with what they need and told them what they needed to do to keep Rata and her family safe.

When the lady had finished helping and teaching them everything it was their time to try as much courses as they could.

They started bottom first “Oh these are too easy” Rata yelled. Then as they climbed higher and higher up the courses she was starting to reconsider about her thoughts, thinking the courses were starting to get harder and scarier. As a few courses passed it came to adventure one of the highest, that was just a bit scary for Rata. Then came to vertigo slightly higher but that one was mostly flying foxes. Last one that they did was challenge.

Climbing up that ladder Rata’s heart beat and beat it was around about ten+ feet off ground. The staff/owners expected them to walk across x’s that were like swings in the air and ride across on a skateboard that they balance on. “ Oh hell no” Rata yelled. But as she turned around there were no escapes she was trapped she had to do it or else she would have to go all the way back . So she kept going. After a few minutes that felt as if they were hours to Rata she had finally finished the course she quickly said “Thank you” to the owners and they all left back to the truck and headed off home.

Oh what a day they had one of the funniest / scariest days of Rata’s life. Her favourite course was challenge it was the most challenging and scary course. Next time she’s going to try adrenaline and acrobat. What an awesome day they had.

Animation advert

This is mine and Josemiria's planning for our 30+ second animation advert.


On our planning sheet we have drawn 4 scenes to help us get an idea of what we were making.
After we did that we used our props from our last animation.
Scene 1 ~ A lady feeling sick in her bed so she calls the doctor to come over.
Scene 2 ~ The doctor comes over and checks her then tells her what is wrong with her.
Scene 3 ~ Close up on her face details on her face.
Scene 4 ~ The doctor talks to her and gives the medicine to her.


Creating the advert.


WALT: create a 30 second advert.


SC
  1. Create a 300 photo shot  advert.
  2. I or 2 close-up shots on your character - portrait or close-up on facial shot
  3. Audience must know what you are advertising. Image and slogan must be provided.
  4. Movements of character or characters must be fluid, slower, more body movements shown.
  5. Add Title at the beginning and credits at the end. Don’t forget the music that reflects your mood for your advert.


Reflection


The thing that I think went well was how we animated it, The slow and fast bits, photo's, characters and creating our scenes.


The learning that took place was: Learning how to make the video, Learning how to sculpt, Learning how to use stop motion and learning how to work as buddies.


I am proud: that we finished it, We animated it good, We re-used our last set, We creating the characters good for first time.

I will improve on: creating the close up bits longer, Making my characters faster, Keeping my hands out and painting the scene better.
