The world of cinema has a lot of requirements to give it that chance to connect with the viewer. For instance, music or lighting or even the camera angles. Music is one of the important pillars to making a memorable scene or to help connect it to a movie(s). Best examples, the "Star Wars" saga. everyone can immediately connect songs like "The Imperial March", or "Duel Of The Fate" ( the really epic fighting music in the prequels). Everyone knows them, so why is it that when it comes to certain movies why does the music not get recognized like it should?
    There reason is because some directors just want fill in music or music that has been recycled/used in popular movies, within legal boundaries of course. The music that is used is to just add a sense of whatever emotion they want the viewer to have without them noticing. That's exactly what it does. Take the marvel movies for instance; like in the video "The Marvel Symphonic Universe" by the channel Every Frame a Painting on YouTube. They (the channel) interviewed random people on the street. They asked them if they could sing a Star Wars song off the top of their head. Everyone passed, then they asked them to sing a Marvel universe song. No one could think of one.
   It's quite interesting when you think about it, even when marvel has such amazing movies, characters, they still are not the #1 highest grossing movies. Why? Because they along with many other movies don't engage in the zone of music to help connect with the viewers. They want to play it safe to where if they don't do out of the norm (copy and paste kinda norm) music; which is completely understandable at times, they loose the chance to place a mark on the fans. It can majorly harm the reputation and impact of those movies within cinema history and upon the young and old fans.

Weekly comments:

     These past weeks in Video Production at Boces have been very entertaining, enjoyable, and influential. Last week (sep 12- sep 16) we learned how to correct images that had damages. though I have never really used photoshop except for once in 10th grade; which was to fix an abomination that I called an art project, I caught on pretty quick. In my opinion. Though I do have to still learn the terminology and the steps in order to preform actions within Adobe Photoshop I do understand how the tools work. 

     We restored an old photo of two children ( a baby and a toddler) that had folds and creases that harmed the integrity of its originality.

(The top is the original, The bottom is the restored and colorized version)

      This project was one of my most proud moments of my life. The reason? i got to restore an old photo that has sentimental value to another human being. the idea that if someone lost a loved one and had a photo that reminded them of the lost loved one and it was damaged, wouldn't they want the picture restored? Obviously they would and a profession that could offer a job like this to someone who finds completion in doing something like this, its absolutely amazing. Of course I enjoy doing other things but if this was my job, I would be more than satisfied. 

      This week, this week has been good to me; thankfully, with the effort that I have put into projects. Though I could have done more for those projects I am still content. We have done a lot within our class that has been very influential on me and what my future may wanna hold. I would like to learn more within Photoshop, nothing specific but to learn the terminology, the shortcuts, etc. I believe this year will be a lot more influential than any other year in my life.
