Photoshop CS4 Tutorials

Last year I hated doing photoshop. It bored me to death and i was really happy once it was over. But this year I actually like the tutorials in the Photoshop CS4 CIB book. All the effects you can do to a picture is amazing. So from now on I'm probably going to do as many tutorials from this book as I can.

Demonstrators demand justice in Puerto Rico gay teen's slaying

See this specific hate crime happens everywhere around the world. Like seriously, what are people's problems. If you don't like gay people THEN DON'T LOOK AT US! It's not hard to do. I hope this guy who killed Jorge gets the death sentence. That will be justice. We will keep fighting for equal rights around the globe. Eventually we will get them. Gay marriage will be legal in all 50 states, there won't be a problem adopting children and maybe people will stop looking at us as a different species and look at us for who were are. I HATE PEOPLE =)

Google OS: the end of the hard drive?

I think it's a neat idea of how they want to get rid of hard drives and replace them with non-volatile flash memory and internet-based storage for saving all of your data. Like if your computer crashes, your files are saved on the internet so you don't have to worry about losing them. But I do still like the traditional hard drive but I am interested in trying something new.

Bad Romance

Okay I love Lady Gaga and all but I am so confused when it comes to her Bad Romance video. I don't get the concept of it. There's people in freaky costumes, her eyes are all wacky and the dancing is really weird and lame. Like come on Lady Gaga I know you can do better than that!

Weekly Comments 11/16 - 11/20

Well this week I learned what producers jobs are all about. It's actually more complicated than I thought it was. Having to switch cameras at the right time, queuing the camera men when to move and all that. It has to be perfect to get the perfect show. Nothing really frustrated me this week. I was happy with learning more about how studio production works. I thought it was really interesting. I want to learn more about how to work the audio board. I found that really cool.

Many Posts

I know I post many blogs about the war/military. It's mainly because I'm patriotic. I mean I have an American eagle tattooed on me lol. That's something i strongly believe in. My step dad is in the Military, so are my step brother and sister. I'm following in their footsteps, not because I feel like I have to, it's because I want to. Defending my country, defending it for those who can't and if people don't like the fact that I post many blogs about this then don't look at my blog =D

Guantanamo Bay

So apparently President Obama wants to close Guantanamo Bay Prison, which if you've forgotten holds terrorists that were involved in the 9/11 attack. Now here's my opinion...ARE YOU STUPID? Close down a prison surrounded by water and bring them into our country. Oh that sounds fantastic. Bring them them to our country which they attacked and protect them while they are here so no American can harm them. Honestly, the governments IQ is like 25 today. It would be a war crime to torture those who to this day are torturing families who lost their loved ones when the towers fell. I say to hell with the war crimes. We fight against all enemies, foreign and domestic. I say torture them all twice as much as they did to us. Yeah there is a chance we wont win the war but at least we can kill as many possible while we are over there.

Obama's Issues

Health care:

Obviously congress still can't come up with a solution for health care. Here's MY solution. First off, maybe if stuck up, rich, greedy business owners would bring their business back to America instead of sending them to China because it will be a lot cheaper it would bring your economy out of this "recession". Then oh my god people will be able to afford health care because they will have jobs! Now that isn't a hard thing to do is it rich business owners and congress. Do you need me to change your diaper too or are you capable of doing that?

Bring jobs back -> People will go back to work ->
consumers will spend more = recession over =)

Education:

As far as this goes, we need more technology in the class rooms. Not spoil the kids, but technology that will help them expand their learning. Like for example, computer. We need more computers in schools that don't have many. Using a computer has helped me with essays, projects, etc. Then in the math rooms they should put those smart boards. I think that is the best piece of technology that has been created to use the in the classroom. My Senior Topics teacher has one in his room and it doesn't take up half as much time as using a chalkboard.


In order to do all this congress needs salary cuts and need to start spending money wisely. I know that's hard to do because you find it fun spending hard working Americans money. But if you'd stop acting stupid you would be able to do it. I believe if your not looking for a job, trying to get one, you don't deserve unemployment. I thin if your disabled, were hurt on the job or laid off, you deserve money but those lazy people who sit around who have ten kids who cant even support them should get off your lazy a** and work at MacDonalds at least =)

Fred: Christmas Cash

I love this "music video" that Fred did. I love how in a few scenes he has cash in the background like spinning around. I love the effects he did, it makes me laugh.

Fort Hood Shooting Rampage

Now because of this incident, it will be harder to get into the military I believe. They'll probably make use take a test to make sure we are mentally stable to join. Thanks a-hole for shooting the most important people in our country. I wouldn't be surprised if another country that didn't like us tried attacking us because people who live here are attacking their own country! Other countries probably think we are a joke because of this. What is wrong with people today seriously? If i had a dollar for how many stupid people are in this country, I'd be a millionaire.

Venetian Princess: Lady GaGa Parody

This video is so funny. I love how she used certain effects to make it look like she was from outer space. Like when the camera zoomed in on er finger and it lighted up, when she had certain backgrounds like the stars and the spaceship setting. This video was pretty good i thought.

Weekly Comments 11/2 - 11/6

This week I didn't really learn anything. I just worked on my one video about cosmetology. What frustrated me was how my video turned out. Some shots I tried to razor it to make it sort of flow with the rest of the film and it wouldn't work out. I was happy about actually filming a video and getting something done. I want to learn more about using the green screen. Like creating more than one person, finding different backgrounds and putting them on the green screen.
