Last Animation I Saw

Tangled... life changing film! This is a story of a girl with magical hair, it plays on the fairytale of Rapunzel and everytime the main character sings it makes people young and beautiful. I thoroughly enjoyed the film and would watch it again, the graphics were amazing and the music made the film very happy go lucky and easy to watch. My favourite part was the lizard named Pascal :) xx

Animation

Today I made an animation via Scratch, I found the whole experience very stressful as it requires a great amount of patience that I do not have as a person. I enjoyed deciding on my sprite and animations, my idea was to make her dance and for music to play after recieving a phone call. My idea did not translate into what I wanted it to as I found it hard to get each costume to flow smoothly into each other. I am however happy with my overall end result but will attempt to make it more challenging next time I use scratch

Games Day

Within this lesson we moved from station to station in groups trying out different games consoles including; Nintendo Wii, X box connect, I pads, Windows tablets. Nintendo Wii- with this console we played a dance fit game, this was enjoyable and straight forward but some members of the group did find it slightly embarrassing as they would have to dance in front of others. I could understand how it might be some pupils worst nightmare. Subjects which I might find it could be transferable too is P.E as it is active and gets pupils up and moving. It encourages healthy competition and motivates people to get involved to get involved as it has meaning and is fun

Santa Game

I have made a game leading up to Christmas where Santa has to collect presents and avoid being eaten by the Grinch. I found the game making process stressful at first but then I did find it enjoyable when I worked out what I was doing. I editted the backgrounds, art work, and uploaded pictures of the Grinch which I found online. My game is easy to play and also has purpose to children as it challenges them

The Dilemma

Opinon on gaming

My opinion on gaming... well I do not really have a strong opinion because gaming is not a personal hobby of mine. If I was to think deeply about the hobby I personally think there are a number of positive and negative points, MAINLY NEGATIVE! For people with no friends, relationships, close family it serves a purpose as it can be an extension of their personality and also a form of socialising, this is necessary for a sense of well being and belonging. People becoming passionate about the people they game against and can form new friendships. It can however allow people to lock themselves away in their bedrooms and have negative impacts on their social life, they become obsessed with online gaming and spend their spare time arguing or disgusing these games on their headphones. There is also nothing more unattractive to a girlfriend... it can result in a a breakdown of relationships and sex life. It is so immature and frustrating from an outsiders point of view, especially when people queue outside shops for the latest releases of the "best games". There are several other options for people to participate in including sports; these will contribute to good health and fitness whereas gaming can lead to obesity and fatique.
