Xmas Decoration

 The decoration in all the holidays is very typical because  it creates an atmosphere in the streets and the main places of a city or town that shows the part of the year we are and that is a very special date.

The decoration of Christmas in the streets is very bright because of all the different lights and their colour and the decoration in houses are more related to the day when Jesus was born. I'm going to speak about the decoration in the streets of Seville.

In the streets normally the messages of the light-cartel are: Happy Christmas or draws of the Three Wise Men, reindeer and snow because the cold is always related to this holiday. There are also illuminated important buildings like the 'Giralda' and important squares like 'Plaza Nueva' and 'El Prado'.

There are a lot of places that are illuminated in the world to celebrate the Christ's born, but here in Seville we have a lot of beautiful monuments that are decorated, Christmas trees and a lot of tradition.

My Self-Portrait

I'm Matti, this is an opinion of myself and my life. The picture that you can see is the mixture of the important things that are around me.

My family and friends are the most important people in my life. In my family we are six: my parents, my sister, my brother and my aunt. They are very nice, but sometimes my brother and my sister makes me nervous. My best friends are four girls that are in my class, their names are: Sonia, Ana, Manuela and Julia. When we are together, we always have a good time and laugh a lot.

My favourite hobby is the music. I like to sing and to listen to different types of music, the ones that I like the most are rock, pop, punk and metal. The sports that I like the most are basketball and swimming but I don't practise a lot sport because I don't have much time.

Of my personality I could say that I'm friendly and kind, but I'm not imaginative at all. This is me and part of my life.

Making Scary Movies

This project has been one of the best projects I did. It's hard to invent and perform, but you can have a good time with friends and also it improves English.

First the teacher told us that we had to make a scary film because we were in Halloween. To have an idea of what elements we have to include in our films we watched "Vincent", the short film of Tim Burton. Then, we started to write the draft.

When we had to write the draft all of us provide a little story, so we did a mixture of all the good ideas of each person. So that's why we have a lot of magic creatures like the vampire, the ghost or the zombies, but the most difficult part of the writing was the scrip. It's very long because you have to put all the indications of the story and all the dialogues, also for us was more difficult because during the shooting of the film we improvised some phrases, so we had to do it using the sound.

The part that I enjoyed the most was performing. It's a little bit difficult because in this type of films you has to be very serious and, when you see a friend dress up as a zombie and doing zombie sounds you laugh a lot and you have to repeat the same scene again. But I think that we did it the best that we could and all of us have an important role in the story. Also is important to speak clear, loud and the body language, we needed to repeat a lot of scenes because of the sound.

At the end we finished the film, edit it and then we showed it in class. This project has been a little bit hurt but the important thing is the personal satisfaction that you feel when you see the film and you like it. Here is the link to our film
