In art we had to pick a piece of street art work that is on the buildings in Christchurch. I chose this one because it is done very well and the lines are basically perfect. The colors all go together, and it makes the painting look better since they go together.
In English we had to make a short film about the Merchant To Venice. Our short film is about catfishing. The main characters in the film are Sam, Jack, Lia and Amy. Our film is about Lia and jack being together and jacks bestfriends ( Sam and Amy) not liking that they are together, so they set up a plan to try to get them to break up. Their plan didn't work out and Jack and Lia are still together. Our story is like The Merchant To Venice because there is a love triangle. Is The Merchant To Venice the love triangle is Antonio, Bassanio and Portia. In our film the love triangle is Jack, Sam and Lia. Daisy was filming and she used heaps of different techniques. We had a hard times figuring out who was going to be who. No one wanted to be in the film. Next time I would like to make our own ideas for the film.
