Si yo fuera un multimillonario.
Yo pienso mucho para personas en pobreza. Si yo fuera un multimillonaria, yo empezaría las firmas para los personas pobre en muchos lugares pobres. En las firmas, adolescentes podrían trabajar y gasta dinero para sus familias. Yo no quiero darles mi dinero apenas, porque ellos pensarían el dinero es regalos y ellos esperarían y no haría nada. Yo quiero ellos comprender que trabajar es muy importante y necesario. Ellos podrían pagar los gastos de ellos y sus familias. Yo tendría los seguros de médico y pensión para ellos. Ellos trabajaría mismo que los otra firmas, nueve de la mañana a cinco de la tardes de los lunes a viernes, y ellos tendría vocaciones tambien. Si ellos no saben los trabajos, yo puede entrenarse.
Para los niños, yo empezaría las escuelas que cerca de los firmas si fuera un multimillonaria. Los padres y sus hijos pueden ir a trabajo y escuela juntos. Las escuelas son gratis si sus padres paguen impuestos. Si no paguen impuestos, ellos necesitan pagar para sus hijos, pero no necesitan mucho. Las escuela tendría jardín de infancia a escuela secundaria, porque los educaciones temperos son muy importante para los niños. Posible yo tendría las universidad por las culturas diferentes. Pero yo animo los niños que ir las universidad mejor en la ciudad o otras lugares.
Yo consideraría primo que empezar los firmas y escuelas en china porque hay muchas personas pobres y lugares pobres. No quiero darles dinero apenas a los personas porque, uno, ellos necesitan trabajar para sus familias, y dos, gobiernos tienen que comprobar los dineros. Después de comprobar, los dineros no son cantidades mismas que cuando yo les dijo. En los lugares pobres en china, los niños no tiene tan más educaciones como los niños en las ciudades. Este plan es perfecto para los padres y los hijos por estudiar cosas nueves y estudiar más conocimientos.

Espanol homework
Hace tres meses me enfermé. Estaba enferma en la semana segundo de la trimestre pasado. No comprendí por que me enfermé, pero adivino la situación fue muy simple.

** Final one!!! Ten Manifesto
1. Know as many perspective in sociology, psychology, humanities and all the history and art. More knowledge better.
2. Write down dreams if you can remember when you wake up, in dream, the brain works better. (I think)
3. Bring a little notebook, and write down some inspiration that come to the mind suddenly.
4. Talk to people!!
5. Always have a camera, DSLR or just a cellphone. Capture everything you see that are interesting. Everyday a frame is better.
6. Enjoy what you are doing, you don't have time complaining, and you have to do it anyway.
7. Travel!! Every break go to a new place, maybe just for 2 or 3 days. Try not find any travel agency. If you have friend there is better. If not, ask natives where is the best represent the place. You will never be a part of the society, but try!!
8. Be positive!! Be Optimistic!!! This is common, but I still have to say. Smile with heart other just move face muscles.
9. Don't care too much about little things, like people gossiping about you. As long they don't touch base line.
10. Most Importantly!!! Be healthy!!! Be safe!!!! Life is everything!!! Without life, things above or other creative stuff just nothing!!!

10A Freak factor
Freak Factor
This article is about the uniqueness of weakness and strength, and whether or not we should change our weakness. David Rendall, the author try to persuade reader to spend the time to build on the natural strength rather than waste time on change the weakness which it does not change anyway. Because no one is perfect, weakness is the point that make each individual different from others instead of strength. He discusses 9 points of whether or not change weakness and how weakness is unique. I think all of the suggestions are valid. I agree all of them. When I was in China, I could always see people criticized others on their weakness, sometimes even humiliate, especially parents to their children. I thought they just want their children to face their weakness and try to change it, so in the future, they won't get more painful from others like the bosses and colleagues. In the article, I learned that weakness is not a bad thing. As he said that is not our fault that we carry our weakness with us, because we can't choose our fate. Since that is part of us, as long as we don't try to worsen the weakness, that is a natural beauty of every individuals. However, instead of just let the weakness go, I suggest that we could improve some and watch out in case it get worse some day.
I will choose numbers 5, 6 and 7 to discuss deeper.
#5: Build on strength.
The whole article is to persuade people don't change weakness, but how we become more outstanding without changing the weakness? Build on strength!! That is what Rendall suggests. I think it is true, too. First, we have to find out and know what our strength is. The strength may occur by accident. If we try really hard to find the strength, we might lost what we got before and wasting more time. After find the strength, strengthen the strength!! (A lot strength.) For me, my weakness is lack interests in reading, but I will get information when I listen to an audio and watch a video. Because I want to work in television and film, but I did not know much artist since I don't watch too much, the only way I can know a artist better and remember them is to start watching movies and televisions. I found that really works for me. After I watch a movie, I will do some research on the actors and actress and the directors.
#6: You can’t do both.
“Do both” here means to change the weakness and build on strength at the same time. It is impossible!! That is why he said “you can’t.” The weakness and strength is relative and related, they exist together. As the example of Wal-mart and Target in the article, if we change the weakness, the strength will change relatively. If we try to do it together, we will lost more than just focusing on one. I think a lot of people can only focus on one thing at time. I could not think of a example for my creative process, but I can provide a example from my life experience. I came to the United States when I was 13 and half, and I always think that what will happen if I don’t come or come 3 years later. The strength of coming here early is learn English faster and be more independent on taking care of myself, but the weakness is I become more apart from people that still in my country or those who just come to the U.S. It does not matter if I agree or not on some of their perspective, sometime I feel like I am out of their conversations a lot of the time, and I have much less time be around with my family and friends. Now if I stayed in China or come 3 years later, the strength and weakness will be opposite. There is not much I can to get both strength.
#7: Find the Right Spot
This is absolutely true!!! The strength is more capable when it meet the right place. A guy who is good at designing, he won’t be as shinning on working in government as in a designing office. In this class we have video, audio, game, animation and management students. For example, for the project of music, audio people will know better than animation people. However, In the article, Rendall discussed that we should find a right spot for our weakness. I think this also will happen in accident. Like the example that states in the article, Rudolph the red-know Reindeer were discovered by Santa Clause in a normal day, the only difference is the day is a foggy Christmas day. I was always told that I should read more books other than watch television (back in China). However, after several years, my weakness of always watching television become a strength that would help me in my future career.
In creative process, the strength I found out is I can come up with tons of stuff if I have a base idea, and at the same time, my weakness is it take a lot of time to come up that idea. I think that because I am lack of knowledge of a lot stuff. That is why my father always tell me that I have to read literature and humanity based books!!

Assignment 9A ( I should have something interesting, but...)
So, this one is the last critique/reflection/blog, whatever you like to call it, about the last project: Video Game Design!!!!
Honestly, I kind of forget what we have talked about in class. I will try my best to recall of the details from last week.
Anyway, First of all, I think the one of the weak parts of the presentation is we did not well prepare for the presentation, because we just got together did the powerpoint. In our meeting on Thursday, we had a lot of good ideas but we didn't prepare to present to the class, like the story. I think audience did not get the story very well. When we did the powerpoint, we mainly focused on the criteria on the grading sheet other than do a real pitch presentation. So, basically the game we came up with is a horror survival game. This player wakes up in a jungle and he can only sees things right in front of his face. The player has to find a way out from his current place and escape from all the monsters. He does not have any weapon. Only things that save him from dying is keep the lantern light (which scares the monster away) and find food, water and a place to sleep.
I think we focused more about on mechanics and rules other than the story itself. I mean we did not talk about what will happen if he finds way out of jungle. My idea was when he is out he is in another setting. Eric's idea was after all the surviving and escaping, there will be a huge glass ball, which when the player try to find the end, he discovers it just a circle. Eric also thinks in the beginning of the game, he wakes up in a lab that he is treated for a scientific experimentation. In addition, we have the pick up object and use the object control, but we did not talk about the objects that the player may pick up, except food and drink. I don't know if we talked about the weapon we may give to player at certain point or not, but we discussed in the meeting. However, all of these great idea we did not come across in the presentation.
Another weakness I think is we didn't get each point as clear as we could. For example, in the presentation, the rules we talked about are very basic, which makes the game seems easy. I think we should have more rules, more powerful rules for the game. For the sound and the guide, we just gave 3 examples and briefly presented. Because the vision of the game will be very dark, the players has to react most depending on the sound. This I think is the most important part of the game, but we did not get much detail on this.
The hardest thing of the designing the game is come up with rules, because along the game, we have to think of thousands of possibilities, and along these possibilities, there will be thousands of different rules. The basic ones are easy, like in our game, the rule of keep the sanity and health level. However, if we really going to develop this game, the rules are still the hardest. For example, if we have the player to pick up a object, there will be the rules of the object: how many times he can use and where he use; if there are different types of monsters, how fast the player has to run away from the monster or how much oil he should have to keep the lantern light and the monsters away, etc. I think the game design is much harder than make a movie and a television show.
Overall I think this presentation could be much better if we put a lot effort in it. We also should be more enthusiastic so that the game will be more attractive!!

Assignment 8B
I really like all heros and villain. I can't decide whether they are below me or above me because every one is creative. But!! I have to my homework!! So, here we go:
The first group I am going to critique is the hero and villain of Mike and Chad. Obviously I am going to talk about contrast in colors. They choose different hue: red vs. yellow/purple, and different color schemes: monochromatic vs. complementary. For the watermelon man (I don't know the name), because he is only in red hue (exclude the little green), the saturation is different in the face and the hand and the tone which differentiates the different part of the body. The brightness, here darkness fit the most, the darkness of the color the artist choose the black. This shows the character’s darkness inside his heart. Compare to the villain, hero that in yellow shows he is very energetic and willing to fight with darkness. the brightness on his body separates the face and create a 3D feel. The purple cloak provide information about the hero’s characteristics, and also contrasts with the villain. In affinity, they are all fruit (Obviously!!). Because the similar styles, they are in the same world. I think it is very creative that they choose the fruit rather than human being. Banana and watermelon are perfect for contrast of color. I wonder why don’t they choose apple. Maybe watermelon has seed that can be weapon? Mike and Chad have done very nice job!!
The one about lighting I choose Emily and Adam’s characters, because I think they, especially Emily, applies the light brilliantly just by color pencil. In the picture that Emily drew, the main light shows on the villain’s face, which drag audience’s attention to the character, which is the main purpose. She also provide actual light comes from the traffic lights and road lights. Even though there is a sharp light on the villain’s face, the shadows and darkness of the costume express she is antagonist, which is supposed be bad. For the hero, he doesn’t have a background, but he specified the shadow. I think those shadows are always ignored when we are drawing. He is very detailed on the shadow under the hair, under the cloak and on the ground. However, compared to the villain, this character has much less symbol and mood just look at the lighting. The mood is presented by the pose of this character, which shows him is an unhappy and mess guy. In addition, their styles are very different, or I can say the hero and villain have nothing in common. I think they should have something that is same to show they are in the same world. But!!! I love the drawings!!!
Sam and Colin's animation
Finally!!! Sam and Colin’s animations don’t contain a story like many people do, but I choose to critique theirs because this one is focus on movement. Because they want to contrast from each other, the hero moves straight while the villain moves irregularly. The hero walk straightly, fly straightly, and when he turns, he turns in 90 degree angle. In contrast, the villain moves unexpectedly, sometimes straight, sometimes around. When the hero get ready to fly, he squashes when he bend down and sketches when he is walking in the end of the animation. The villain, however, flies around instead of walking, his weight shows when he sees a target and try to speed up. In the animation, they don’t have overlapping movements, because the drawings are very simple. I think it is really hard to have overlapping movement. I have to be careful on two or more object moving. But!!!! This animation is very well done!!! ( I think I put this after every essay)
This is it for the animations and characters. I choose them not because they are below me, is because I have something to critique. Everyone has done FABULOUS job!!!!!
