The Apple

So, in order to determine whether we were sensing or intuitive, we had to write about a picture of an apple that our teacher showed us. This is what I wrote. 

"The apple is shiny and mostly red with yellow too. It probably tastes really sweet, and crispy as well. Probably a little tart also. It is the same kind of apple that my mom keeps buying even though she knows I like Red Delicious apples best. It is the kind of apple that I used in my Disney Princess Interview video. It also reminds me of the Leppa Berry in Pokemon."

The Myers-Briggs Test- My Results

We took the Myers-Briggs test yesterday, and my personality type turned out to be Introverted Sensing Feeling Perceiving, or ISFP. To quote the test itself:

"More in touch with the reality of their senses than their INFP counterparts, ISFPs live in the here and now. Their impulses yearn to be free, and are often loosed when others least expect it. The ISFP who continually represses these impulses feels 'dead inside' and may eventually cut and run."

Basically, ISFPs are impulsive and act on their emotions. They are very charming, and tend to find organized education to be boring. They enjoy honing a favored skill for the joy of the experience, not for practice. They are known for outbursts of emotion and acting on impulse. Famous ISFPs include Marilyn Monroe, Britney Spears, Ulysses S. Grant, Paul McCartney, and Marie Antoinette.

This is extremely fitting, as I have been known for outbursts of emotion. Often times, I act on impulse. When I repress my impulses, I feel dead inside. I love doing things just for the fun of it and not to practice. And, yes, I think that school can be a little boring.

The Animal Test- My Results

We took the Animal Test today, and we found out which of four animals we were. I am apparently a Golden Retriever- loyal, friendly, calm, and very sensitive. Golden Retrievers typically have deep relationships, but only with a couple of close friends, and just want to be loved more than anything else. However, they are indecisive and way too soft on other people. 

I have to say, this couldn't fit more. I am loyal and friendly, and maybe a little too dependent on others. I'm very relaxed, but I am very indecisive. I'm also way too soft, and just want to be loved. I have only a few close friends, but those friends are friends I am very attached to. And, ironically, I own a Golden Retriever in real life! 

I couldn't be more pleased with my results in the Animal Test. And, hey, maybe this is why I'm so attached to my own dogs- because I am one! 

Woof, woof!

Maddie's Magnificent Movies!- Escape from the Exploding Building

This is a film I made for my A to B project with help from my friend Ryan. (He was the camera man.) Unlike my previous short film, "A Disney Princess Interview", this one is actually good. The general plot consists of "the building is going to blow up and our hero needs to escape". 

I did a lot of sprinting while filming this, and it was a workout, I tell you! The music was the escape music from Super Metroid, which I chose because it plays when the planet you are on is about to explode. I also used stock explosion sound effects. The cinematography is, again, very strong, and it was well-executed.

Now, I know how to make something more engaging and better than "A Disney Princess Interview". I had fun making this and can't wait to do other projects in Video Production!
