Current Event #2

On Friday, the 18th, a 6 foot shark was seen in the shallows off the coast of Australia.  A few men were able to wrestle it back of land, and into the water heading out to sea.  People are still in the water, not at al deterred by what occurred.

Stop Motion Test Clip






This test clip is about a girl sliding up and down a handrail that is along a staircase.  The production process is fairly simple, just placing the pictures in imovie and sequencing them.  I then exported it using Quicktime, and uploaded it here.

Currrent Event #1: Lab-a-lion

This is the three-year old labradoodle, Charles.  He has been
shaved to look like a mascot because he is the mascot for the
Old Dominion University.   Earlier this week a 911 caller reported
a lion walking down the street.  The police checked with the zoo
and found out that the zoo still had both of their lions.  Charles has
been mistaken several times as a lion, so his owner calles him a lab-a-lion.
The community loves Charles, but some people still freak out seeing him
for the first time.  I was shocked when I saw this story, because Charles may
look like a lion, but the resemblance is not so similar as to actually mistake
him for a lion.  This story was taken off of YAHOO! News.

2012 Year in Review

10/8/12
     On October 8th a baby elephant fell into a well in Kenya.  The well had a foot of water in it, and without help the 7-month old baby could have never made it out.  Rescuers used a rope and their car to pull the baby out.  They had had to hold the mother off to keep her from charging them while they attempted the rescue.  The baby elephant calf was successfully rescued and then reunited with her mother.
