The Greatest film of all time!

The Greatest film of all time!


We were assigned to produce a short film based on Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice, This film is about 2 best friends going into parent counselling and to see if they can solve their problems and one of think that the other is cheating. This re-telling of the Merchant of Venice is how where the councillor is the Duke, Shylock-Aryan, Antonio-Levi and TJ is a character that is made to split them up.

When i mean Aryan is Shylock He is not actually him ,he's just the secret antagonist in the story because he makes Levi appear to be the antagonist.

We used high angle shots to capture them as weak or powerless, and over the shoulder to capture the talks of the conversation.
Things that really challenged me was not laughing, I can't have a straight face if it's something I feel comfortable with or I feel like I'm acting stupid which makes me laugh I also learned that biting my lip stops me from laughing and helps me stay as character.
I'll get a haircut so I don't look like a microphone in the film, I might try to get a better role and since I have done film I think next time I will be better prepared.

The Lungs

The Lungs 

Lung - Wikipedia

-Brings oxygen into our body

-It allows us to exhale carbon dioxide from our body

The Respiratory System-

Breathing out is completely normal and instant.

Breathing through your mouth it reduce immunity.

The Cardiac Muscle  (heart)

Pumps blood,
Veins help and and travel blood through your body
The blood takes away the waste 
Pumping action creates what we know as our pulse
Veins don't have a muscular wall but have valve like structures which prevents blood flowing backwards.

The Happy broadcast:

Saving the whales


Sri Lanka's navy saved over 120 whales during the pandemic over the southwest coast. After becoming stranded people came out of their homes to help and succeeded  but only a few died while trying to swim away because how tired they were.

Villagers forgot about the virus that was spreading around to help the Whales, even though reasons are unknown why they wash up their are many theories why.


Diamond making?


Pandora, Largest jewelry maker has stopped mining for diamonds and have started lab grown diamnonds because of high demand. Natural and lab grown are pure carbon crystallised diamonds. Even better diamonds will be made with 60% renewable.


Drugs are cool?

Cannabis has been legalised for 2 years and saw a decline in opioids and has helped people mentally.
Can't be bothered to finish :)

P:E fitness


Physically fit:

To be in a state of health and well-being. Physical fitness is defined as the body's ability to function efficiently and effectively in work and leisure activities, to be healthy, to resist disease and to react to emergency situations.

What could effect fitness is:

Getting a broken leg or bone, your diet has a huge effect on how fit you are. Flu's can stop you from performing your best because of how it blocks your lungs.

Garbage Patch

 Garbage in the ocean

Littering

Garbage in the ocean has been causing a lot of problems in the world, affecting marine life everyday and destroying reefs that may never come back. Littering is a major problem in the world. Littering damages the oceans, the plastics we use have been killing whales and destroing 85% of the oxygen in the world.



Daily use of plastic

The daily use of plastic is growing but also decreasing, the litter that people are picking up are being replaced by plastic that we drop. The plastic that we use is being dropped in the ocean which is degrading into microplastics where they are infecting every living thing that swims. Daily use of plastic is hard to stop, it’s cheaper and a lot easier to get a hold of.


Government trying to stop Plastic in the ocean

Governments have been trying to stop pollution in any way they can but they can’t force people to do it, that’s why they try to spread the message anyway they can. 

They stopped people from Overfishing and made it law and stopped massive amounts of overfishing. China has resumed whale hunting which is a bad and terrible thing to start up again during this epidemic of plastic and loss of sea life.


People getting involved! 

A rise of people have been helping with the problem, when they go out people have been using non-plastic cutlery, straw, and bags but now since COVID-19 has left for now we have been decent in our use of plastic but been a little slack.


Tonnes of PLASTIC!

The problem is us, people out there don’t care or don’t know, if they know what the problem is it’s because people afford the non-plastic, the plastic is 269,000 tonnes of plastic that has been left there which makes it plastic soup.


The US has been a major factor since they were so late to the problem and when they realised they have already destroyed the oceans, and oceans is what they need for their major fishing companies. The seafood industry has been experiencing a lot of micro-plastics with the fish and found that they were already dying because of it, and uneatable.


Conclusion to our problem.

The thing that we need to do is to band together and work at this problem, making sure that whales are not dying and producing Phytoplankton, when this happens less of “Plastic soup” will be occurring and the Pacific ocean will be cleaner and thriving in it’s own habitat.
