growing up online 2

Growing up online getts everyday more dangerous. And not talking in a phisicaly way, meaning that children may get addicted tt he computer very easily. They dont know who they are truly talking to. Kids live in danger int he social media, any information revealed is public, so everyone knows about it. Although the technology is faster and ofcouse it helps us to do many things such as, communicate, research information, save stuff, etc.
But groowing up online is growin with help. what i want to say with this is tat as moe as we ust the technology, more used we get and we cant realise htings on our own. Imagine you dont have internet, neiither a computer, and you need to research information, what would you do?....
Look in books, ask people about it, etc. This is the true significance of work, and not just going online and finding answers.
Yes, ofcourse its helpful, and we do learn! but wouldnt it be better to live
naturally? No media, the communication would be in person, and you will truy know
how the person is or reacts to what you are saying. You will apreciate things differently.
See things with your eyes, not only pictures.
The would would be very different without the social media.
But its know part of our life, seriouslt think about living more than one ear without using any of this resources...you cant right? because we are sooo used to them.
That you dont know it they are helping or afffecting.

Growing up online means that kids grow up attached to the computer. That they spend most of their time in the computer, doing whatever they are doing. The thing is that this time lsot int he computer is LOST! they cant have it back just becuase they wanted to stay attached to a screan for hours. Growing up online may have its possitive and negative side.
Possitive because the improven technology, the ability to comunicate faster than it was before. Beeing able to research information, beging answered to your quiestions, its a social media where you are being informed.
Ofcourse, the negative things are that who knows if the person you are communicating might be the one you think, cause you acctualy cant see their faces. People can be mean in the internet, this is known as cyber bulling. Bulling people by chat, and expressing everything because you know nothing can harm you behind that screen.
Another situaton is that people might not be as thay are in the computer, they can speak easyli directly though a screan to another but in life that person might be very different.
so Growing up online, aint know if its good or even bad?
no one knows, but everyone has its own point of view about this

Rotoball

The project we resently did was the macromedia rotball project. We made a video of our selfs and we trace it and convert it to an animation. My prjcets is a bout this girls jumping a rope and suddenly it transforms into a seed. The girl levaes the seed in the floor and it grows into a tree, where an apple falls from it. The girl plas with the apple and then she leaves it in the floor and jumps intop of it. I got this idea suddenly i wanted the girl jumping a rope, and then the rope transforming into something. I decided i wanted some nature on my macromedia project so the rope transormed into a seed, and then to a tree. I decides i wanted to play with something in my hands and whats better than an apple falling formt he tree.
really enjoy doing this project because You put your best efford and see that the results are wonderful. Although its freaking tired doing this, frame by frame, detail by detail, but the results which acctualy be meaningfull.
All the proces is totally worth it, the last video will make you proud of everything you can do.
I was talking to my mom about htis and she was amazed of the technology we have today, she said int her times what i was doing in my class, was kind of similar of what porfessionals did to do animated characters.
I found this project really amazing!
I wish we could send our project to some kind of company and they will publish our work in the televisioon because its actually of that quality. Apart fom all the project we have done i think thiis is the most amazing and cool wer had done. If i could redo it again i would had make more movements and add more taranformations into it. And maybe change the background music.
The thing that i loved the most of my project was the seeed growing into a tree, i found it seriously amazing!
