Aria Thoughts

To start I love the stop motion animation it really added to the mise en scene of the whole thing and have done stop motion before I know how much work had to go into it.

Though out the animation I notice some cool things, like the butterfly I knew at first watch, had to mean something important, at first I thought her heart, but at the end, I realized it was her soul. I think they portrayed it beautiful and very creative.

I also thought that when the mom and daughter are 'flying' around I interpreted as there love for each other, the only other thing that flew was the butterfly. The only true loves in the animation child and self.

The sailor had a lot of interesting connections, the hat was one of the girls most prized possession, but lets it fly away when she has her daughter. The daughter and mothers love for each other are shown there the cord that connects them, and the sailor just rips them apart.

This, of course, leads to the strangest yet most power parts of the animation, when the girl runs offset and rips herself apart. From that scene, I took that the grief of losing her child and finding out her love doesn't care about her is worse than death, that she breaks time and reality itself to show the depth of that emotion.

Final Video

The idea for this film is to show the different layers we have. On the outside were all happy and joyful (shown by dancing) the happy/good words that we say, write and read to each other. However, there is a darker side on the inside we are drowning in hate, confusion, and lost (shown by tub filling with water). The dark side appears sometimes which is why you hear some bad terms.

Megan George 3/3/19 History of Microphones The history of the microphone starts with German inventor Johann Philipp Reis who, in 1861, built the Reis Telephone, a device which converted sound waves into electrical impulses- however it could only relay music, not articulate speech. The telephone was later famously improved by Alexander Graham Bell in 1876 with the liquid transmitter, allowing vocal cords’ vibrations to be picked up, and speech to be recorded. However, this system had poor quality. The first microphone that projected voice well was the carbon microphone, which was created by David Edward Hughes around 1877. These microphones are the prototype of today’s mics, and they are what helped develop broadcasting and recording industries. Thomas Edison remastered the microphone into the carbon-button transmitter in 1886, a more practical and efficient substitute for Bell’s liquid transmitter. This is what was used in the first radio broadcast and was used in telephones up...
