Film Animation_Task 01

What is Film?

Film is simply a series of still sequence images shown quickly to get the illusion of motion. But film industry is so much more than that. Film can tell stories, inform data or educate people. A movie can shock, provoke and stimulate imagination on people. Commonly there are three styles of films; action, comedy and science fiction movies.

What is Animation film?

Animation is an illusion of motion created by rapidly displaying sequence images as same as film but those images are hand drawn or computer generated. The word Animation is a form of animate, which means to bring to life. It is also considered as a form of art. 

'Brave': Such a degree called brave?

If the bright spot in the film row of a sequence, I think it should be following this way: First, Meili Da that has a very high degree of recognition and extreme texture of red curls; Second, the soundtrack; Third, the movie about the so-called"brave" interpretation - the courage to take responsibility and to bridge the cracks that mother and daughter affectionate brave; fourth, three naughty little boy but handsome.

And i think the soundtrack of the film is quite wonderful, the bright when you suddenly see the light feeling, the dignified secretive deep sense. Several allies into the lobby of the Kings that part of Scotland organ playing, all of a sudden you taken to a foreign country, brought to that scene in the film takes place.

The film's humor is not the the major joy from the triplets small boy. I've summed over seven kinds of pet animated image of overseas hot, mature adults is considered a class the triplets is created out of this type. "Madagascar" penguins with the same purpose.

"Madagascar 3": the pepper and black tea on together

Admittedly have forgotten "Madagascar 1" and "Madagascar2" of the story,  Maybe my memory is not good, perhaps not a good memory of our colleagues, but I only know that this kind of thing will never appear in "Robot Story", "Spirited Away" really top animation on-chip.

Only remember, I am afraid that this series of four omnipotent penguins, with the judgment of the agents, planning skills, and execution. The Madagascar penguins of "Madagascar" series, like a bird like pineal squirrel in the "Ice Age", is wonderful as a main character of a supporting role, the protagonist to become a typical walk-on works. Just "horse", although exciting performances of four penguins remains the same, but has a full in decline trend, because the audience is already familiar with this routine. As the saying goes, the big bang, and then to decline, and thrice. And There is a saying, the same tactic against the holy warriors is useless. Saint fictional so, not to mention our real almost?

"Madagascar" plot compared to the past, compared to other outstanding works can be described as a bit fragmented. In a not very adequate motivation, the four main characters want to go back to New York, and began this adventure. And the adventure comes mainly from two aspects: first, an animal specimen collectors and strong female police officers kill, and the second is derived from a lost target, powered circus, they want the aid of the circus to New York and the way to help the circus solve some psychological problems. This is two totally different clues, but also two distinct taste.If the former looks so fierce, cool explosion seemed in excellent shape and pepper taste, which is some sensational, depression involving spiritual growth afternoon tea, warm feel.

And the exciting part of the film is an animation describing the high-tech circus, imaginative, the animation very strong, a bit of classic Disney movie "Dumbo" Description of a psychedelic animation. This is perhaps one of the few people in the film felt original paragraph.

Place: Some places gambling is legal, for example Macao.

Problem: Will out of control, going crazy. Gambling and money are closely associated. Gambling is the attempt to gain money, goods or service without an equal commitment to mutual exchange. In this sense, one must lose for another to gain. Some people is working in the wrong field. Will hurt the family or friends.

Gambling encourages gain by greed rather than gain through the productive process. The Church has always opposed usury.

Because I think money is a moral, material and spiritual issue. Emphasis on any one or two of these issues will lead to a breakdown in the moral and spiritual fabric of the society. There is evidence that the decay is evident elsewhere so there is no need for us to duplicate the problems and failure of others.  I will show some example about dangers of gambling. Invite regret people to talk their experience, why they regret.
