the sound of the music


this movie is amazing, first I thought it was going to boring because it’s old (1965) but when I started to saw the film I found it very interesting .

maria is the main character, a woman who is preparing to become a nun but is sent to work with the captain Georg Von Trapp to care for their children.

the children were unhappy, the father was very strict with them.

The children always had governess and they are always strict so the children thought that maria would going to be like the others governess but they were wrong.

children eventually recovered the smile that they had lost for along time.

After many days the captain realized the mistake that was doing with them, treating them in that way without giving them love

the captain change by Maria, the children were happy with the arrival of Maria and after a while maria and captain fell in love and ended up married.

This film is very nice. gives us some messages
one of them is that you should not treat your children in a very strict way, they need love and you have to give it forever.
other message is that the love of your life can come at any time
other message is that you must fight for what you want without anyone stopping you
other message is that you must think well before making your decisions

THOMAS EDISON


thomas edison was who created the kinetoscope , the black mariah and sprocket holes .
the kinetoscope was like a bog box in which you put your eye in a hole and you can see a motion of many images this invention had many desadvantages
1) was individually
2) didn't had sound
3) shorts films

another invent was the black mariah , was the first movie studio located in new jersey, the studio didn't had roof because they need the sunlight to film, the cameras only moved foward and backward and the cameras use electricity .



1) 2)3)

1)THE KINETOSCOPE 2) THE BLACK MARIAH 3) SPROCKET HOLES

The Lumières and film making


Now that the first real film camera was in use, it was up to its pioneers to use it. The first experimentation by Louis Lumière showed everyday real events. His film The Arrival of a Train at the Station (1895) showed the train coming in diagonally across the screen, a very unconventional method of framing.
Therefore, the Lumières pioneered not just the technicalattributes of the camera but also its artistic attributes, creating a dialogue of
REALISM that has always been a crux of cinema as distinct from the fantastic film tradition.

Their work consisted mainly of moving images from scenes of everyday life. Ironically as we look back in retrospect in comparison to what film has developed into today, the Lumiere Brothers believed it to be a medium without a future as they suspected that people would bore of images that they could just as easily see by walking out into the street. However, their film sequence of a train pulling into the station reportedly had audiences screaming and ducking for cover as they believed that the train itself was about to plow into the theater.

Dear John


I’m going to write about dear john .

I saw this movie one week ago was amazing I love all the movies based in Nicholas sparks books .

This story begin when john and savannah met each other, they began dating and in only two weeks they fall in love .

John tyree was a men that works to the military , is so handsome , didn't have very good relationship with his father , in his past was a guy who liked to fight .

Savannah Curtis was a girl , the son of his best friend Tim was autistic and she loved him as his brother

The problem began when john had to return to work he had to be one year away from savannah .

when they were away they sent letters each other , in those letters they wrote what they were doing , how much they missed,etc.

after a year , they were happy but the problem was that he only was to stay a couple of days because he needs to return to work to stay two years more

time went on, first they sent letters but one day savannah send the last letter saying : that it’s impossible to be together

you are so far away from me “ he realized that she felt in love with another person and he was right.

one day he went to savannah's house and she was married but not with a stranger .. she married with TIM his best friend .

although she was married to tim only to care for her son because Tim was sick and he was going to die she never stops loving john

the love between savannh and john is unmatched.

this kind of movie teaches us that we must fight for our love if you really want it

The first machine patented in the United States that showed animated pictures or movies was a device called the "wheel of life" or "zoopraxiscope". Patented in 1867 by William Lincoln, moving drawings or photographs were watched through a slit in the zoopraxiscope. However, this was a far cry from motion pictures as we know them today. Modern motion picture making began with the invention of the motion picture camera.

The Lumiere brothers were not the first to project film. In 1891, the Edison company successfully demonstrated the Kinetoscope, which enabled one person at a time to view moving pictures. Later in 1896, Edison showed his improved vitascope projector and it was the first commercially, successful, projector in the U.S..
