Assignment 3

1) One thing that I do everyday is go on a jog. Every afternoon I put on my favorite running shoes (nike air max), underarmour shorts, grab my ipod touch, and take a stroll around campus. I leave east quad and always go down towards Blatt. I take in the scenery as if I had never seen it before. Looking down at the students on Blatt field playing lacross or soccer. The two teams in same color uniforms resembling two army squads ready to attack one another. I'll run down to the bridge that goes over Assembly St. by the Strom. The cars zoom past me underneath so loud that they are heard over my music. As I run by Strom I look up in the windows and see all the people on the treadmills, wondering to myself wheres the fun in running in one place? They are really missing out on a chance to take in some fresh air and unique scenery. I make my way past the Kroger Center and on to the Colonial Life Arena. The Basketball team is usually practicing by this time and I'll catch them walking in and see them goofing off before practice. I circle the Arena and head back to the dorm. Instead of going down to Blatt, I will take Blossom St. back to East Quad. Another day another jog, same route, but always something different. Not only does it make me feel better physically, but also mentally and emotionally.

2) After listening to the music for just a couple of seconds, the first thing that came to my mind was pizza. Therefore in the middle of my paper is a big pizza. The song was Italian so it made me a think of a pizza parlor. The next thing that came to mind was the movie V for Vendetta, so there is a large V over the pizza. After listening to the song for a minute or so the song began to make me feel sad and depressed. It sounded like he was longing for a lost lover that was never coming back. My picture has shaded black all around the corners of the paper and surrounds the pizza and the letter V.  Overall my picture has a depressed, sort of erie felling about it. Its not very colorful or bright, more dark and gloomy.

3) The Establishing shot in a movie or TV show introduces us to the setting of the scene and where most of the action will take place. It usually involves the main characters or objects as well. The establishing shot in a movie is very important because it tells us where the scene takes place, who the main characters are, and the relationships between the main characters and the setting. Usually the establishing shot will use a famous landmark to help identify where the movie is taking place. Time Square in New York, or the Golden Gate Bridge in California for example. We already know where the movie is taking place right when we see these landmarks.
