Media Fluency Reflection

1. How was the ease of access in building your flipbook, despite this being the free and limited version of the software? It was a good even with the limited version of the software. I would like it to be easer to manipulate but it still worked well for me.

2. Were you able to apply the skills you learned in the planning stages appropriately to a digital environment? I believed I was able to do so to the best of my ability’s with the knowledge I have. The flipbook turned out the way I planned it to with focusing o what needed to be done.

3. What were the sources you researched that made this an “authentic make-believe” American Revolution flipbook? The sources I used are also on my flipbook.

4. Is there other software online that could have done the job better? Did you use another software instead? Explain. I believe flipsnack was the best software I could use for what I had in mind . My flipbook turned out the way I wanted it to and flipsnack was fun to use. I love to try out new softwares when I have the chance to do so.

My storyboard

Tim Burton, in Edward Scissorhands, used Edward scaring Kim scene to introduce Kim into the movie and to show that Kim has the most real reaction compared to everyone ells in

order to show that Kim has the most real reaction to anyone ells in the movie and to show the connection Kim and Edward share in order to achieve the purpose of showing Kim’s unique personality to the audience. For example, in my

own interpretation, I ­­­­­­­changed how the characters looked to fit with the technology/programming I could use on the website i used to create this storyboard.

Because the website did not have a person with scissors as hands to use as Edward and so I used lighting as the scissors because I could not find scissors and that is only one thing I changed but I will not say any more things I changed because it is strait forward to find what I changed if you washed the movie and if you did not watch the movie Edward Scissorhands I suggest you do. The cinematic choice of this carton is as similar to the original movie as I could make it .

This adaptation from film to visual novel taught me that there is a lot more than I expected that go’s in to a movie than I thought like how everything has to be in a perfect place and angel and how there is so much editing just to make one picture in a carton and then there is so much more editing in a movie. Making a movie takes so much work and I only made one scene from a movie and it took a lot of work. The interpretation / viewpoint / technical elements are not all there in my carton but I did my best with the website I was given to use and the time line I had. thank you for taking your time to read my blog about my English 9 assignment .
