Process:
We chose Sarah as the team manager. We based our jobs on the reliability of the person. We decided on the scenes just in order. The amount of scenes was given also according to the reliability.
Group Dynamics:
The relationships between some people are kind of rough. We are being as fair as we can to all the members. Some of us are a little clueless on what to do. Were getting things done.
Editing:
I chose my lines by getting some from my Inspiration document. I chose the important lines by finding lines that change the meanings in the book and have events in them.
Evolving Understanding:
Im not sure about this one.

Art and Life #2

There are people that destroy works of art to just clear land to build something. I think that that is horrible. There are ways that you can clear land without getting rid of the art. You can also build around it at least. Art is related to our life in many ways. The art of a poem will explain.
Life & Art
Gus Gerstle
In songs, the chords need to refer to the melody.
In paintings, the colors need to refer to the mood.
In designs, the images need to refer to the meaning.
Life is but a song.
The chords changing.
The melody repeating.
Life is but a painting.
The colors changing.
The mood repeating.
Life is but a design.
The images changing.
The meaning repeating.
In us, our thoughts need to refer to our mind.
Art and Life

In the world there are works of art that people don’t take as art. They debase it and disrespect it in many ways. They need to learn to accept art and the important role it takes in the world. Art is what I like to call “Life’s Essence”. Art makes many people happy and joyful. Art can change almost anything. You can sit in a park and there is a mural on a wall that art creates a different vibe for the park. It makes it more peaceful. Music changes things as well as art. Music is what I like to call “The Sound of Life”. Music is used to set moods in movies or places. It brings peace to ones mind. There are many forms of art and they need to be accepted more in the world today.
Art and Life walk hand in hand. There can’t be one without the other. Art should be a very important thing in all of our lives. Sometimes the world can be dark and scary. Art can brighten all that up. Art can change our world, and it already has for many years.
We can understand a lot about people through art. If we can understand people more we can be friendlier towards them. Art can change many people and things. And only we can make that change. So respect art, because it means more than what you think.
