Zombieland


So, last night I went to go see an advanced screening of Zombieland down in Boston. It was such an awesome movie. It was funny and really good. If you're into Zombie movies, definitely go see it next weekend when it comes out. Its worth it. And it was also cool since Woody Harrelson and Jesse Eisenberg were there to do a Q&A session after the movie. This was probably the most fun I've had at a movie. There were Zombies everywhere in the audience, I went with a whole bunch of people I like, and I got to talk to a whole bunch of awesome new people while waiting in line for 2 hours and sitting in the theater. Was a fun night. Go see Zombieland, comes out October 2, 2009.

Heroes Season 1


Holy shit. So I just finished the first season of Heroes on Netflix...and oh my god, it was one of the most amazing seasons of a show I have ever watched. Its like, the best show I've watched so far. Well, one of them at least, but its up on my list as one of my top five TV shows ever! This season was amazing and intense. And I started watching the first episode of the second season, but, not that far in yet. I LOVE HEROES!

Back to the Art Center


So today was my first day back working at the art center. It was so tiring. But I'm glad I'm back there. Almost 2 years of working there, damn. This is the longest time I've ever kept a job. Amazing.

Digital Photo


So, I take photo in school. One major difference in photo this year compared to every other year in the past is that the photo class has gone digital since half my school is going under renovation and that half of the school has the dark rooms, and they didn't bother to build a new dark room. So far, its pretty fun. I enjoy it a lot. We have an amazing studio with awesome computers, printers and cameras. The first pictures the class took yesterday with the cameras were of flowers. Pretty corny but it was fun. And today we uploaded the pictures we took to our computers and we started playing around with the effects and such in photo shop. We had 2 kinds of pictures when we uploaded the pictures to the computer (2 of the same picture except each a different format). One was in .JPG which is your average format in which most pictures are saved. The other was a raw file. A raw file is in a way, just like a negative that you'd get out of a black and white camera. It shows you every little detail and such. The raw file is the file that we edit with the most. Its a really fun class, and I think getting the knowledge and feel of digital photography earlier in my photo career then later is great for me, since I want to go to college for photo. Anyway, this class is fun. I can't wait to see what the rest of the semester is going to look like.

P.S. the photo above is not something I did in class. Its a photo I took a while ago that I took on a trip to Canada and played around with it in a program called Picnik, which is a lot like Photoshop. Enjoy.

Ellen DeGeneres is an Idol


So, Ellen DeGeneres is taking the place of Paula Abdul as an American Idol judge. Now, as awesome as I think that is, there are a lot of mixed feelings about this from many people who have heard. And for those who haven't heard yet, well...surprise! Anyway, I personally don't know how to take this piece of news exactly. Part of me wants to be happy but another part is kind of like, "Ellen? Really?" I mean, I love Ellen, shes been one of my favorite people for a while. But I'm not sure how this is going to work. We'll just have to wait and see right? Well, I'm crossing my fingers, and hope that nothing goes wrong. Maybe she should just stick to her own talk show? *Shrugs*

Matrix #2 Fake-Out


So, I'm watching The Matrix Revolutions, which is the second movie in the Matrix trilogy, and I just finished watching that scene where Neo was fighting all those Agent Smith clones. And one thing I realized was that a good few parts of that whole fight scene was so obviously fake. For example, when Neo is twirling around that pole, kicking the circle of Agents, you can easily see that it looks like that bit is straight from a video game. This is true for a few more bits of this scene. Another thing that I found was that when more of the Agent Smith clones came in to join the fight, not all of them looked like the actual Agent Smith. Now, I know that they possibly had extras for the parts in which you see a wide shot of all the Smiths and you may not see much detail, but it seemed pretty easy to pick out if you were looking at everything in the shot. Now, as much as I enjoy this movie, I just had to point out some of these flaws. The Matrix is too good to make the fake stuff obviously fake. But, its still a good movie that I enjoy watching.
