Inspriation Post 3

Hello my lovely Fxers  This week has defiantly just been a depressing one for me So there is nothing like another Inspiration post to lift the sprits! Ill be back to my regular posts next week. Something that lifts my sprits more than anything is taking photos its one of my favorite things to do to pass the time so today I am going to show you some of the photos I've took sense being on this beautiful campus I hope you all enjoy !  

This photo I took on a lazy Saturday and I mean lazy I wasn't even planning on leaving my dorm. But I'm glad I did or this picture  just wouldn't exist. The thing about living In F is its a pretty far walk so what better opportunity to take photos right? Well anyway I was walking out of building F , and the sun was setting which made everything look dark expect this pastel like sun set  in the backdrop it was so clamming and peaceful and beautiful I just couldn't pass it up. If your wondering why it is in a circle well I just discovered the fish lens setting on my phone to say I am a bit obsessed would be the correct wording

 

This photo was taken on a walk to class my original plan. Was going to be to try to snap chat a video of me blowing on one. And I don't care what any one says we all think oh this would look pretty cool on snap chat and then try to attempt it and fail we all have been there even if we don't  want to admit it. But that is how this photo came about I thought if a couldn't take a video id just photograph it and I thought it came out pretty good.

 

I know this is probably one of the most generic shots that could ever be taken. But on my first day of classes I thought it was so cool that we had one of these in our quad so I took the oh my god it the best thing in the world approach and took this picture. I really don't know I just think it is pretty cool that we have all of this secrecy around campus .

 

 

This last photo is of a moon shot the day that the red moon craze was going around although it dose not look to red because honestly it just didn't show up to good around these parts . But non the less I thought it was cool to actually just get a shot of the moon because it is pretty hard for moon shots to show up on cameras. Unless you have like a super expense camera that it will show up good on and I'm not afraid to admit that I am a broke college student so that isn't gunna happen.

 

Until next week Fxers have amazing, fantastic, Incredible, insanely awesome , beautiful , gorgeous , lovely loving day !

Movie Inspiration 

So this week I wanted to do my second inspiration post. Since the 9th grade I wanted to be a movie maker because I wanted to take real life topics that happen to real life people and bring them light to them. To let people know they aren't alone. Most of all  help other people to understand something that the might not ever experience. I find it remarkably inspirational  when I watch a film that dose that because that is my goal in life. For my second inspirational post I want to discuss design aspects right down to the story line that make these movies so great and powerful

The first movie I wanted to talk about was actually a move I saw for the first time this weekend it is called Before I Disappear
                                                                         5 out of 5 

This has a lot of bad reviews outside of its 4 star rating on Netflix actually because of the fact that nobody liked the ending, and hated how it jumped topics They also didn't understand some of the odd camera movements and angles. As for me all those things that they hate is what I loved about this movie. And what I thought really took it to the next level

This movie follows a young man Richie who is writing a suicide note to his ex who has passed. He plans on ending his own life to join her. Until he gets a call from his sister asking him  to watch his  niece Sophia for a few hours. Sophia gives Richie something to live for. The whole movie Richie is slipping in and out of  near death and depression. Which is why the directors choice to jump in and out of senses  from topic to topic made perfect sense to me. Because you have to understand that Richie is about to commit suicide and suffers from depression it makes perfect sense that his personality is going up and down.  I think this movie did an amazing job of explaining the human condition .

Spoiler *** 

There is one part where it is Richie 2nd attempt at ending his life he takes a whole bottle of pills and gets a phone call from his niece in his looped state he is attempting to make it across town to his niece this is where the shakey hand held sense come in but it works trying to make you feel like your actually there.

The ending of this movie I quite like because it wasn't exactly a happy ending although it could of been it leaves you to decide what happened

Spoiler ** 

Richie is in the bath tub quite like how the movie began about to end his life when the phone rings and his sister invites him to dinner it then cuts two Richie burning the suicide note. Only to start a new one I love you I miss you Richie then it ends with him seeing a ghostly image of his ex. The ending can be taken to ways Richie finally fought his demons and can move forward with his life. Or he ended the on going battle. But you can choose which one thus creating your own ending which i like.

Remember Me I have a love hate relationship with this movie and this why I don't want to give it  five stars but it the ending ripped my heart into 1,000 little pieces. So just for that I must.  this movie focus around the love story of two broken people a girl Ally  who is trying to deal with the lost of her mother. And a boy Tyler who is trying to deal with the fact that his parents spilt up after brother  committed suicide. They meet each and fall in love while helping each other deal with there demons. The movie is centered in New York in 2001. And for all of you that never saw this movie you are probably thinking that it is just another stupid love story. I will not lie its a love story of two broken people that found each other but the ending is so unexpected and gut ranching  that makes it so much more than just another love story.
The first time you watch this movie you are just shocked because you would of never thought that would of happened. I know your wondering what happens ok. do not read the spoiler if you have never seen the movie I'm begging you go watch it first.

Spoiler***** The Ending

Tyler has  just made up with his father and is waiting for him  to arrive at work it cuts to a shot of his sister in school with her teacher writing 9/11 on the board. And then Tyler  dies he dies in 9/11 twin towers plane crash and it ends with a poem in his voice from his journal . Its shocking its just everything is going great and you  expect this happy ending and he dies. I think it made the movie fantastic because you become emotional invested in Tyler like he is your good friend it causes you to feel such pain when he dies in the most horrible way and we get a tiny glimpse of what it was like to loose someone on that tragic day. Again the free handed camera work right around the 9/11 scene brought another layer to this movie .

And the thing that makes it so much more real no knew that was going to happen. People in that building could of been fighting , dealing with lost,  planning on fixing relationships. They were people that had these mazing life's and struggles and hopes and dreams and they got taken away with no warning and  that's what makes this movie so real and raw and just not like another love story because it makes you think about the what ifs in life.

 I have never saw I movie quite like this it deals with the very serious issues of being transgender but dose it at such a young age which makes you  that much more attached to the characters. Again this movie had gotten beaten down and accused as being an insult to the transgender community. For mere fact that the ending wasn't happy and did not lean towards acceptance. I am 100% in support of the LGBT community don't get me wrong. But once again I think the ending made the movie that much more powerful.
This movie follows a ten year old girl Zoe who's family moves to a new town. Where he  decides he wants to become Mikae and introduced himself as just that to his friends . This story is about a girl making a transition into a boy  and the new struggles he will now face as Mikae. Mikae mother was a horrible women that could not accept the fact that her little girl was actually her little boy  which lead her to do some rash things.

Showing Mikae having to cut his hair, or bandage his torso, or try to imitate what all the guys were doing. showing these scene  is what made the movie because we read about this or hear about it but actually seeing it is a different story and makes you feel so much for that person.

Spoiler***** The Ending

Mikae's mother outs him as been born with girl parts in front of his friends  this ending was heart breaking and it was uncalled for a mother none the less to do this to her son. But this is what made the movie great because back in 2011 and even today  horrible but true a lot of people wouldn't of accepted this. As much as a I agree that we should support positively for this topic. This movie showed what it was like for people that are transgender and the kind of things that happen when people don't accept them for who they are. Its a horrible fact to face but people actually are like this and do treat people this way. It brought a horrible and ugly truth to light. And maybe just maybe for hard headed people that felt that way it brought  them to change there actions.
