A virtual tour is a tour online that lets you look around a building or a city. If you are disabled and you can't access things very easy you can look around and you can sometimes feel as if you are there. As you are looking around you get information about the place you are looking around in e.g if you are in a museum you get information about an exhibit. The downside to virtual tours are sometimes you can't see properly and it is very pixilated on some sites. Also you can't go into some buildings to look around, Some of the tours are a little bit outdated.    

A perk is that if you are planing a holiday you can look around the place you are planning to go to see what it is like there. My favourite tour was the tour of London because you can see the whole city and experience the whole cities life.

Life ed movie

Embed your movie into your blog. Title: Life Ed Movie Label: Health


Underneath do your reflection


Reflection
For each heading explain how well this aspect was done
  • what was done well
  • what wasn’t done well
  • what you would improve if you had more time



The sound quality was good but at times it was hard to hear because the wind was cutting the sound out a little bit. If my group had more time we would have tried to clear up the sound.
The camera skills were good the shot was steady, the angles were good but the lighting we could have worked on.
Our acting was nice we had no robotic performances. We had a guanine script if we had more time we would have better facial expressions.
Our transitions were good but if we had more time our cut scenes
The poem was good and it blended well with the subject.
The message was good and hopefully it sends a good message. All of our team members were used well and everybody was included

Is the book disappearing

The book is disappearing because electronic devices are taking over. On average the US uses 30 million trees a year and that is why there very little forest space compared to suburbs in the US. Since 2005 children reading books has decreased by 25% and the children have converted to You tube and other apps. 53% of the world prefer to read ebooks as they are easier to locate compared to a book. Incidental reading is the most common reading because the people reading don't actually know that they are reading. The reason behind that is that children who have a Facebook account will be reading statuses constantly without realising it, even though it is in slang it is still reading. Ebooks and books affect the world in different ways. Ebooks are on electronic devices so they can release radiation but books on the other hand affect animals homes by cutting down trees and forest land. The radiation can be handled and reduced but cutting down trees can only be resolved by reducing the amount of copies of a book are made or finding another way to make paper. That is why the book is disappearing in this day and age.
