Martin Luther King

Martin Luther King

This week was the 50th anniversary for when Martin Luther King gave his speech " I Have A Dream!." The speech was given on the reasons of civil rights towards the black people, as many whites were so against the blacks. Black people and white people couldn't go to the same school or anything they had to be segregated. 

Martin was born on the 15 of January 1929. Growing up  his father Martin Luther King Sr. was a Minster. His mother was Alberta Williams King. Martin then had four kids and went on to be a Lawyer and an Activist to change America to get equality.

Through the coming years of Martin, America was Unbelievably Racist. On the bus if the white couldn't sit on a seat or had no seat the would tell the black people to get up and move, the blacks then had to get up and move to another seat or stand. Blacks and Whites had to use different toilets. Schools were segregated so there were Blacks and Whites school. Black people were in poverty while the whites were in Prosperity.

Martin fought and fought and finally got equality between the both Black and Whites. Blacks are still in poverty but there was a big change in the profits of black people. Blacks and whites can now got to school together toilets can be used by anyone, black people can also sit anywhere on the bus.

But in the end after all the trouble Martin went through, the bombing off his house and getting stabbed while working through his paper work for his job he died. He got assassinated by James early ray By a 30 calibre rifle and was pronounced dead at 7:05 April 5th 1968.

Movie Reflection :D

Laita, Serenity, and Sislia from Team 5 PES on Vimeo.

Serenity Sisilia and Laita's movie was good. I was a bit tipsy on the message of they movie. Thinking about what the could of been about or what story it was trying to tell was as clear as it could of been. The one thing you could of really worked on was different angles and scenes also in different parts of the school not just the one place.Sound Quality was excellent and so was the steadiness but that was all. There was some emotion but no acting in the film, there was no interaction with the characters.

I think they could of put in some graphics and detail towards the movie to make it alot more interesting and more attracting to the audience. There was no scenes just one mid shot that lasted thought the whole movie,but overall it was nice that you sang it and i think it was fantastice! .

1. Message

Think about what the message was/should have been.

How well did the movie convey it?

2. Filming techniques

Angles/Shots

Steadiness/Use of tripod

Sound quality

3. Acting

Use of expression to convey different emotions

Convincing interaction between characters (if there is any)

4. Graphics

What is the quality? Are they detailed? Do they include detailed backgrounds

Have they been drawn not traced?

5. Animations

Are the animations realistic/smooth

Are they complex

6. Flow

Do the scenes progress logically? Does the movie connect well from one scene to the next?

7.  Key Competencies (For those analysing their own movie only)

How well did your group work together? Did everyone contribute effectively and do their share? Were you able to work through disagreements when they arose or did they become an issue?

Did you manage your time well? If not what do you need to do differently next time?

Reflection

This week B2 was in the literacy strand and working with Ms. Squires. We were learning about Nelson Mandela and about his life and with him fighting for civil rights for South Africa. As the week came to an end we had to do the two circles, meaning two circles that merged together then with the middle part drawing what's the same and the on the right side of about Nelson and then the left side about Martin Luther King Jr. Seeing what they had common and different was really interesting. On Wednesday our task was to create a rap involvng Nelson life and Martins. Working on it was easy because i was working with laita so my job was to find information and beats and Latias was to just write whatever she could.

This reflection was written by me and i had a great time with Ms. Squires
