The person did not describe properly most of the important things .
When I reached the eerie isolated place , I went to search for the glasses .
Eerie as in how ?
How did he look for the glasses ?
No feelings when he reached the place ?
I thought it was a cave that had gold and gems but after i opened the trapdoor I saw a foot .
No pace ?
How slow/fast he open the trapdoor ?
So what if he saw a foot ?
What was his actions ?
What was his reaction to what he saw ?

I dragged my bicycle as we headed back home. "Can I have my glasses back now ?" , she asked me . I felt my pockets and discovered that they were missing . I gave one quick panicked look at her with my eyes widening . "I've lost them ...", I replied . She shrugged her shoulders . "Mum will kill you .".
I took a deep breath and closed my eyes . I tried to recall where we had been for the whole afternoon adn what would mum do if I could not find them . Then I opened my eyes and saw my sister trying to read my thoughts . I stared back at her with impatient eyes . "Wait here ." , I told her and I immediately dropped my bike and ran off .
I ran in the field , the grass brushing agaisnt my legs , trying to prevent me from going any further . I pushed my through . In my head , all I could think of was where the glasses could be . I managed to recall that we had been in one place and I tried to retrace my steps . The field seemed endless . I finally reached the place .
It looked like an eerie isolated place if you were alone . The place was dead quiet except for the crow who was crowing . I looked down and searched along the path . I must have dropped it here nearby .
I was looking through the grass when i finnally saw it as it shined in the sun . I went over to pick it up . Then I heard a loud thud . i looked down and picked the glasses up and stood up . For a moment , I just stared at the ground . Then I bent down again and brushed the grass away . It was a trapdoor . I wondered what would be behind the trapdoor ...
I had an uneasy feeling that I would discover somthing horrible but I took up all the courage I had and lifted up the latch . I slowly opened the door . I thought to myself and smiled ... a cave of gold and gems ... Dust flew out as I opend it ... light shone through the darkness ... I could see a coat and there was a foot showing ... covered with mud and dirt .
In a split second , I let go of the trapdoor and picked up my legs and sped off . I sprinted back to my sister , gripping the glasses tight as if I was about to break them . My heart was thumping so hard as if you could hear it . Sweat dripped down my face and i gasped for breath . I shot her one worried look and gave her back the glasses .

"Where are my glasses?" my sister asked kindly.I reached deep in my pockets. Looked around everywhere trying to find it." Oh no ... I'm gonna be in trouble!" I thought for awhile."Mum is going to kill you! " my sister said.Closed my eyes and took a deep breath, trying to recall the place which i've probably dropped it. "Stay here and wait for me."I said. Without hesitation, i dropped my bike and ran back to find the glasses.
I was running at the speed of light. Legs trying to spread out as long as possible. Wind is carrying me along, so that i could run faster than ever. Reaching the place, walking through the path , looking everywhere to find the glasses. Hoping that the glasses could appear in a sudden. Walking slowly through the brick door and up the hill.
I bent down to have a closer look on the ground. "No clues of the glasses.."I mumbled. I looked up and in the distance, I saw something shinning. "YES!Thank God i've found my glasses."I mumbled. I sighed with a relieve and ran eagerly to grab the glasses. "Thud" The sound made me curious on what am i stepping on. I raised my foot and slowly opened the door. My eyes is fixed at the ground. Dark shadows made me curious and excited to know the answer. I squinted my eyes , trying to figure out the whats inside. A leg appeared , I screamed and immediately closed the door. A loud sound came from the metal door.
I ran back to my sister like a ostrich, grabbing the glasses tightly. Reaching my destination and pass the glasses to my sister. "Let's rush home." I said. Sat on my bike and my sister stood on it.

Im not scared reflection
I think that it is not easy to make a clip like that because you need to make the character facial expression like worried, shocked.Not only the facial expression but also the action, while he was running the grass stopping him, slowing him down like want him to not get his sister glasses and the thoughts like he think what his mum will do to him, what is inside the tunnel.
Speech is also important like when the sister say mom will kill you her speech sounds serious.Angles shot is the most important thing to the video because to show the thing they need to show like the sister spectacles.The colors and lighting like he when opening trap door to see whats inside the tunnel.

"OH YEAH !!!!!!!!! COME AND GET ME !!!!!!!!",I exclaimed as the others chased after me . I laughed my head off .
It was our summer vacation and we decided to go around the fields to relax . I could see the fluffy clouds in the blue sky . The grass was tall , gleaming golden . I raced the others down the hill as the wind blew against me like gentle kisses . The scent of the fresh air wafted throug my nose . We played and laughed all the way . Yes , it was definitely the most perfect summer we ever had .
The next day , I went to the fields alone . I looked straight , as if i could see my prey like an eyes of an eagle . I ran through the tall grass with my arms wide open . Like any other bird that was released from it's cage , I ran like I had much freedom than I could ever had ...
As i ran through , I could feel the grass tickling my legs . That was when something caught my eye . I stopped frozen . I squinted my eyes to try to see what was happening . There was something mysterious up on te hill which was not very clear . My brain told me to get away but my body was still .
I had not noticed that I had been staring for a while until my arms felt heavy . I could not think straight . the ditraction had got me thinking really hard .

I learnt that in is not easy to present something.When I present my group Im not scared trailer I felt nervous,scared and panic.I need to let my audience feel happy and it’s fine about it.When me and Adrea present our front part of our trailer we got lots of thing to say but the last two part we are confused because it dosen’t link at all.Before my group present we did not discuss with each other andwhen the audience ask us some question we got panic but in the end,we manage to handle the situation though we did not really got to discuss.

COMIC LIFE
We had new task . Ms Lee was going to let us listen to a trailer of the movie "I Am Not Scared" . That is right , LISTEN not WATCH . Then we all listened to it . At first , I thought it was going to be a trailer of some horror movie or some escaping death thing like Final Destination . After listening to the trailer , some words like "Italian countryside" and "ruthless kidnapping" told me that it was a foreign movie and it was about a kidnapping , nothing related to the supernatural .
The next day , Ms Lee gave us some pictures from the trailer . We had to rearrange them into a story and we were the directors . She also gave us a sheet of paper with instructions . We had piut the paper aside so we had forgotten , so that was our first mistake . Our next mistake was we did not link the whole story together . Yes , we linked PARTS of the story together . Then we took the parts and tried to link them but we could not . Then , i remembered parts of the movie i watched online at Yvonne's house and tried to put them in the correct sequence . My mistake ? I forgot that we were the directors and we were not suppose to follow exactly what happened in the original story . anyway , i watched part of the story , not the trailer .
When we watched the other groups' story , it had funny twists . Like , in Pratick's group , they already had the suspects when they had no problem yet . I think they were trying to follow what they had heard , the sentence that said "where everyone is a suspect" . They had elaborated on the key incidents like why this part is the problem trigger ? . Jaryl's group totally made sense because they had the trailer in Yee Xin's handphone (hey , isn't that cheating ? Heh , guess i cheated too since i did research !
Then during the time where we were making the story , we were argueing why this part fits with this part , like why must we show the main character climbing over the fence before the hand in the mud ? I was pretty sure our story did not make sense , we could not fit some of the pictures with the story . In the ned , we still managed to put it together because this time , Danial argued a little bit with Adrea and I .

AMV info
Title : Sasuke And Itachi's Childhood
Song : What I've Done (Pls : When we uploaded the video on youtube they took out the audio so its song is different)
Video : Get from Youtube
Main characters : Sasuke Uchiha , Itachi Uchiha
Other characters: Naruto , Kisame
This AMV is about the Sasuke and Itachi Uchiha . Yes , they are related , they are brothers . Their parents ? Itachi Uchiha killed them . he was in an Anbu mission , sent by the 3rd Hokage . He gave Sasuke a chance to live . Sasuke grew up , hatred in his heart , yearning to kill Itachi . then Itachi joined the Akatsuki clan and he and Kisame was sent off to find Naruto . When they found Naruto , Sasuke found them . Sasuke saw Itachi and tried to kill him but unsuccessfully did not and ended up getting beaten up by Itachi .
How did we put the AMV together ?
First , we decided which episode of Naruto we should find . Then , we went to look for the episodes on Youtube . We had some difficulties because we could not find the episodes we wanted . Then we decided on a song that would fit . Then I asked Danial to get the song since he was a Linkin Park fan . Unfortunately , he had forgotten so we had to use the song in my handphone (which ,the computer deleted all the songs in it by accident -.-) .
Problem situation the main character faced and what is it that you want to show us about this character eg his personality and the change and why such a change occur.
The changed occurred when his brother , who was about 8 years older , killed their parents . He obviously loved his parents so much that it had brought so much anger in him that he wanted to kill Itachi . Sasuke changed from a peaceful and loving kid to a hating , strong and straightforward one . We are mainly focusing on him changing and his hate for his brother . That is why he got strong enough . We wanted to put the scene where he had gotten his curse mark ( which make him stronger ) but could not find it . We had a clip where he had killed Orochimaru (the bad guy ninja who had bitten him and that is why he has the curse mark ) but if we had put it in , we had to make a video that was 6 minutes or more . The time limit was only 3 minutes . I would be glad to make a video about it if i had the chance again .

I've learned how to plan the presentation and link the pictures together to make a different story from the director's.
Linking the pictures together takes time , because we need to think of the other pictures and what are they going to happen after that. Problem is a very important thing too. Without a problem , the story will become very boring and no one will ever bother about the story. Worsening the problem is making the problem bigger , having more difficulties in solving the problem.
For our begining , we chose the clam day , which the boys are having fun cycling at the countryside.
But the problem came when the main character saw some vehicals and found a door lead to a path where the kipnapped boy is inside the door.
Being a presenter needs alot of confidence and must be daring enough to talk to the audience. Must have a very good plan before he/she presents.

ADREA'S PERSONAL REFLECTION :
Planning was quite confusing actually , I do not know the happenings about Naruto and Sasuke.
But this project/work gave me some ideas of how the part of the story happened.
Sasuke and Itachi are siblings/family.But Itachi killed their own parents when Sasuke was young.So that's why Sasuke wanted revenge on behalf of his parents.
By this story,I felt very sad because Itachi killed his parents while they are innocent. It gave me a very deep impression of him.
So we decided to make a video/clip about Sasuke and Itachi , their past.(according to my sayings.)
For the music , at first we decided to use ' New Divide ' by Likin Park. But in the end , Danial did not download the music , so we used another music which i forgotten the Name for it -.-
Erika gave most ideas for the video. I just agree or disagree and gave a better one.The boys are equally quiet.But i think Danial did contribute a bit while Ken just sat down there and watching what we are doing. He did say somethings.
To Erika :
Get well soon Erika! I do not want the whole class to be sick and in the end left 1 or 2 people in the class listening to the teacher's lecture , totally boring and we need to answer those questions. Drink more water! :D
