Outlook For Some Day Reflection

In room 13 we have entered the outlook for someday movie compition,
my movie is called water poullition, I made It along with Renee, Lily, Be, and Ruby.
Our movie Is about a news show and the news show dose a report on water pollution, the news reporter crosses over to bubbles the fish, to interview some fish swimming about in the sea and what they think of water poullition.
Here It is:


 Reflection For My Movie:
          
Something that I learned from this project that I did not know before was that China dose the most damage to the ocean.
Process: I learned how to add the photos to the green screen
The part of this project that was the most challenging for me was finding coulors that I can use for my fish so It did'nt blend with the green screen.
The part of this project I found most rewarding was when we finished It
The thing I need to improve on the most is planning before my movie.
The thing I found that I am really good at Is face painting.
If I had to do another outlook for someday movie, the things I would do differntly are:
Planing before I start my movie.
Have more info in my movie.
Try to get my message more clear.

Art Splash

Yesterday I went to  Art Splash with the rest of the Tawa Intermediate drama academy.
If you don't know what Art Splash is, It Is a place were people perform drama or dance and it is also fun to watch aswell, we watched  some performances from different schools, I didn't get some of them because they were confusing but oh well.
When It was our turn to perform It was really fun, there were lots of mistakes but It was fine,
we got allot of laughs from the crowd and everyone really enjoyed them selves.
I hope I can perform there again one day.

Russian Fudge

In the weekend I had a go at making russian fudge, I liked making It because It was really fun,
I also found It easy. It tasted really yummy  But It had lots of suger which wasnt a problem for me but It was for my parents.

Here Is the recipe I used: (It Is from the chealsea suger website)

Ingredients

3 1/2 cups Chelsea White Sugar
125g butter
3 Tbsp Chelsea Golden Syrup
1/2 cup milk
1/2 tsp salt
200g sweetened condensed milk (half a standard tin)
2 tsp vanilla essence

Method

Place all the ingredients except the vanilla, into a medium-heavy saucepan. Warm over a gentle heat until the sugar has dissolved about 10-15 mins. Bring to a gentle boil and cook for about 5-10 minutes, until it reaches the soft ball stage (120°C).

Remove from the heat and add the vanilla. Beat until the fudge is creamy and thick and has lost its gloss. Pour into a greased 20cm cake pan. Score the top and break into pieces when cold
