Speech questions.

George W. Bush is speaking about the bombing in Iraq, and why this is happening. It's really important to me, because the love of my life and best friend was in Iraq for a year. 

The speech is very serious, but informing at the same time. 

Its feeling is sadness, worried, confused, quiet but loud at the same time.

The tone is stressed, loud, and strong. 

It makes me feel worried and concerned about everyone that is involved or is about to be involved even though they don't want to be. My heart goes out to the families who have friends and loved ones over across the country. The men and women who defend our free country. 

George Bush was the oldest of six children of George Bush who served as the 41st president of the United States. Bush  was the first person since Benjamin Harrison in 1888 to become president despite having lost the nationwide popular vote. He was narrowly reelected in 2004, defeating Democratic challenger John Kerry. Before assuming the presidency of the United States, Bush was a businessman and served as governor of Texas 1995-2000. 

Goooood is......

I found the different links all very interesting. All the videos and magazine articles all relate back to what is going on in the world right now. The advertisements that come up on the sides, had some pretty cool animated videos. Overall its a pretty interesting website. 

Adobe Fonts

On the Adobe website, I found it very interesting when I clicked on graphic effects and watched the video about how type isn't only for words and reading but it is for moving backgrounds and things like that.
Fight Night and Las Vegas was awesome. I would love to learn how to make text move the way it does in that animation.
Kinetic Typography is AWESOME!!!! I cant wait to learn how to do this stuff!!!

importance of writing.

I hate writing.

period.

Some people can write and write and write, and never get sick of it. I am the exact opposite. But what I have found when writing is that it is a creative art form in itself. It expresses the way you are feeling or thinking in not a visual aspect but in a verbal way that makes you use your imagination so you have visual pictures and images in your head that you have created. I find that when I am writing I not only start to think up other ideas, but it helps me with looking at and recognizing things in a way I usually wouldn't. 

interesting.

These are just some interesting things I found when I was going through different graphic design/type blogs.
