1). In the Netflix documentary “Period. End of Sentence.” The director uses interviews and B roll for some of the women who live in the village talking about periods and what they are. In the “Black Sheep” film they use reenactment instead of the actual person even though he was partly seen in the documentary.
2). In the first film they used interviews with the women to show how they deal with getting their periods and what they are doing now to change that. In the second film they used reenactments to show what was happening. They used this because it was “in the moment” kind of a documentary.
3). In the first film they are using interviews to help other people see how women started a pad business for younger women to find a solution to help the problem of more sanitary needs for women in countries. Black sheep was more of a story that happened awhile back but was then brought back for people to see his story.
4). I like the film “Black Sheep” because it was a dark and stomach churning film showing how a young man lived in a time of racism and hide his real identity to fit in and commit crime with the white racist community. Also it shows how special and courageous Cornelius is to share his complex story with others
1). Tim Burton has directed 38 movies as a director including short films
2). His first film he made was “Pee-we’d Big Adventure” which came out in 1985
3). Tim’s most recent film was the new version of “Dumbo” and it came out in 2019
4). Most of Burton’s films and shorts are written and directed himself such as “Beetle Juice” and “Corpse Bride”
5). His most popular and heart-warming movie he has made is the 2019 version of “Dumbo” because it has very sweet and sad scenes of an elephant is part of a circus and is used for dangerous stunts but soon learn that his ears allow him to fly and amazes the crowds with the act. The movie helps viewers to see how divided the world has become and “the ways we look at people who are different from the rest.”
6). Tim Burton focuses on making the film seem more life like with the Dumbo because he is CGI when directing the film. Through out the movie you start to see the build up of heart-warming characters and the build up of the action with the scripts and the music.
7). Tim Burton has mostly worked with Johnny Depp, Helena Bonham Carter, and Christopher Lee
8). Burton has won four Golden Globe awards and has also won eight Academy Awards

– I think Alfred Hitchcock choose to film the shower scene with quick shots to make the audience feel the suspense build
– The “shower scene” is famous because the way Hitchcock used the music to time with the frantic action in the scene and he used a female as the protagonist which was very rare in the 1960s.

5 Things I Learned
The film The General, the stunts were good and funny in some scenes knowing that all of the stunts were real. There was no mattress for the guy to land on when he fell off the train. It was all real. I really liked the scenes where the train engineer was trying to get to the other train trying to save the girl he likes. Unfortunatly he kept failing at trying to go faster to catch up while the southern army was trying to slow him down. I also liked the edits for the night time scenes. It was cool to see the color difference between nighttime and daytime.

You’re going to publish a post today. Don’t worry about how your blog looks. Don’t worry if you haven’t given it a name yet, or you’re feeling overwhelmed. Just click the “New Post” button, and tell us why you’re here.
Why do this?
The post can be short or long, a personal intro to your life or a bloggy mission statement, a manifesto for the future or a simple outline of your the types of things you hope to publish.
To help you get started, here are a few questions:
You’re not locked into any of this; one of the wonderful things about blogs is how they constantly evolve as we learn, grow, and interact with one another — but it’s good to know where and why you started, and articulating your goals may just give you a few other post ideas.
Can’t think how to get started? Just write the first thing that pops into your head. Anne Lamott, author of a book on writing we love, says that you need to give yourself permission to write a “crappy first draft”. Anne makes a great point — just start writing, and worry about editing it later.
When you’re ready to publish, give your post three to five tags that describe your blog’s focus — writing, photography, fiction, parenting, food, cars, movies, sports, whatever. These tags will help others who care about your topics find you in the Reader. Make sure one of the tags is “zerotohero,” so other new bloggers can find you, too.
