2010
This Summer holidays I've been pretty busy studying but that didn't stop me from watching films! I went to the cinema every now and then with my father, film lover, and sometimes my mother.
Paranormal activity: A little scary but I love Horror films. The use of hand-held camera made it seem more real, I thought it was good.
Avatar: really good.
Invictus: Its about South Africa and Nelson Mandela and Rugby, boy film. But I found it inspiring and motivating.
Sherlock Holmes:I thought it was really good but a little long, anyway I liked it.
and not at the cinema I saw: Rec. Knowing and one more I can't remember.
I still have my list of films I want to watch:
-The heart locker
-District 9
-Valentine's day
-Up in the air
-The hangover

Final exam
At the beginning of the scene, the camera follows Georges, suggesting the importance of his character. He walks to the elevator while he talks comfortably to other business people. This shows part of Georges life and commitment, his present life. Suddenly, Majid’s son appears, where the OSS reveal Georges’ reaction to the appearance of this person. Georges’ reaction changes as if to suggest memories of his past life returning. Georges says he doesn’t have time to talk when really he wants to forget or repress this part of his life. Georges ignores him and continues walking to the elevator. Majid’s son follows him, this suggests that Georges’ past memories are haunting him and won’t go away, just like Majid’s son.
Cinematographer
A Cinematographer is a person who has expertise in the art of capturing images either electronically or on film through the use of visual recording devices. Also responsible for the selection and arrangement of lighting. The Director of Photography is the movie's chief Cinematographer.
It is the making of lighting and camera choices when recording photographic images for the cinema. It is closely related to the art of still photography. Many additional issues arise when both the camera and elements of the scene may be in motion, though this also greatly increases the possibilities at the same time.

Director
A film director, or filmmaker, is a person who directs the making or production of a film. Some also consider a film producer to be a filmmaker.
The Director is a person who visualizes the script, controlling a film's artistic and dramatic aspects, while guiding the technical crew and actors in the fulfillment of his or her vision. In some cases, film directors do not have absolute creative control. The director can also be selected by the producer. The producer can in this case have veto power over everything from the script itself to the final cut of the film, often in anywhere from slight to extreme opposition to the director's vision.
When directing individual episodes for a television show, a director's responsibilities are somewhat diminished, as the visual look and feel of the series is already established, usually by the person billed as the show's creator or executive producer. Those directors who choose or are chosen to work in TV traditionally have had to accept that they will not be as lauded, or as well-paid, as their big-screen counterparts.
