Pictures






I think that this is a good picture because I took it while the sun is in the background giving my friend Paloma a sihouette. I also gave the camera a different angle by making it look up just a little. Also because she is smiling and she never smiles for my photographs!

T

This is an example of of a bad picture because i took it without her posing, and i had popped up like a paparazzi to take a horrible picture that isn't really real.

Sobe Thriller AD

In this commercial there is a dark skinned girl wearing a shiny dress; the top is covered with silver while the short skirt is thin and flutters easily by any movement. The girl has straight jet black hair and is carrying a bright red Life Water bottle. After her high heels click noisily a scaily dark green cricket follows her every step. She opens the bottle quickly with a radiant smile. As she sets it down the water splashes and a fiery red lizard pops out and gives it a gulp in mid air. His eyes suddenly turn dark and evil as if he were in a trance. Thriller by Michael Jackson is in the background while the lizard along with many other lizards and the woman start dancing to this song.
The person who created this message is SOBE, but it could have involved both girls and boys, probably someone younger than 30.
This commercial had fun, humor, celebrities, nature, music, sexy, and cartoon as their creative techniques.
Probably a racist person wouldnt like the idea of a black girl instead of a white one. Or also someone who is very environmental wouldn't like this and think its a waste to buy flavoured water.
A lifestyle i see is of having fun and listening to older music, dancing, and being sexy.
I think the message is being sent so you can go enter their website along with buying the product.
In this video i saw a girl dancing with lizards to the Thriller song because they drank Life Water. I think both girls and boys created this message and thought that it would satisfy the public. Mostly fun, humor and celebrity were omitted in this message. There are some people who probably woulnt feel comfortable watching this commercial like racist or environmental people. This message would make people want to dance. Also, this message is trying to get you to buy their Life Water maybe because it brings out the music in you.

In this picture there is a colored man walking out onto the metro, after buying his ticket. He’s wearing a black old fashioned hat matching nicely with his dark overcoat and a white collared shirt followed along by light khaki pants; and wrapped around his neck is a black filled tie with red flowers. He is carrying another suit on the back of his shoulder, as if it weighed only a few pounds in the light of the metro. Having a weird expression on his face as if he were puckering his lips and looking towards the sky as though he has seen something completely amazing, he holds on gently to his ticket as he walks out of the booth.

About Mulan..

Some of the values I had seen in the movie Mulan were their lifestyle; they went by morals to honor their families. Mulan is rejected by the matchmaker, so she’s really sad, and tries to bring honor to her family by saving China! Also, the way they dress has to do a lot with their values, you couldn’t just walk up around china wearing a t-shirt and jeans if you were a girl. (so mean!)I think that the person who created Mulan had done a lot or research on the country, or had been a formal habitant of China. Since the person who made Mulan must have wanted to make the main value be family, I’m sure it’s someone who also values family, or else I’m pretty sure that they wouldn’t have wanted you to see in this perspective, family is important. This movie has a mixture of both truth and fiction. There are no talking dragons, there are a lot of superstitions, which could, but may not be true. “Bringing honor” to the family was common in china. Confucius in writing Jen, wanted to lead people to having manners and being kind. Mulan gave up what she had to fight for china and her father, who is now older, and a bit incapacitated.

If you were the supreme ruler of the world, what would I do to change the relationship between the US Mexico border?

If I was the supreme ruler of the world, what would I do to change the relationship between US&Mexico's border region..? Thats a tough one. There's many ways I could change the border. For instance, I could create a party which would search for any undocumented immigrants throughout the United States, who would become directly deported !!! And while theyre being deported I would play my harmonica while they march away!! Another way I could change things is by lowering the pay of visas, but strengthening our border! I would make the border bigger &taller than the wall of china!! I would hire more border patrol agents to patrol the area, and if the immigrants want to come underground I would have a metal fence that reaches 15 ft. underground the wall so that people don't go diggin under it. Or another way I could help is by changing the mexican government, they should create new jobs for the unemployed, and supply them with housing, food, &education so that they don't have to worry about coming over to the United States. I shall free them from poverty, because I can. :D
