i like the action in this scene and the determination of James bond is something i would like to try and capture in our character, in a scenario that seems without hope, for him to be continuing to try creates a really great quality for me

Racial steryoptypes

this is a clip i like from an old film called blazing saddles, i thought i would use it to demonstrate how racism has changed over the years. today such a thing would not be socially or legally acceptable. i also think this is quite a funny clip.

favourite songs and ting

we have to create a power point showing our favourite songs and genre of music. the PowerPoint talks about how and when we listen to music. my favourite song is a Mr brightside cover by "Boyce Avenue". i prefer this cover because of the acoustic and more natural sounding to it and the singers voice goes with the song much better than the lead from the killers in my opinion.
