My last post (for now)


It´s crazy that I had never used a blog, even when I consider myself a technologic person.  And I have to say, that this was a great experience, because it´s different from facebook or twitter. In Blogger.com you can post whatever you want, without any pressure. In facebook or twitter, your post can be judge by people that don´t even care about what you write, and also can comment. In your blog you can post whatever you want, and the people who read it, it´s people who really want to read it, people that have interest, and people that want to comment to make an attribution.
I think that is always good to practice our english by this kind of things. Writing at least twice a week about everything, keeps our english in a safe place of being forgot.
I have written about a lot of things, things I like, and things that I want people to know. In the future, I would like to write about an ONG that my brother has, it is called "Rescatemos Juan Fernandez", and I think it´s important that people know about it, because they are doing a lot of actions to keep safe the islands from invaders that are putting in risk the biodiversity. Actually, at the end of this year, in my role as a filmmaker I am going to go there to make a video for create awareness.


Bye everyone!


Metacommunication

Well, today i want talk about the future. 
I think it´s something complicated, because no one is able to guess the future, but maybe we can predict situations and avoid them by knowing some kind of patterns in the present.
For example,  we usually see it in normal interactions with people, when the things are not going well, and fights appear whenever they can. We can predict the sequence of events and metacommunicate to resolve the problem. It is a way out for problems in a relationship, anticipating things that are going to happen in the future.
I know that I started talking about the future in a metaphoric way, and i ended talking like a crazy scientist jaja. But it is something i learned this semester, and probably something that i will never forget. 
It´s very useful to know this kind of stuff when you are blind because of a discussion.
I hope you understood what i have said, because I was reading it, and it sounds so weird.
I invite you to read some books about this kind of interpersonal communication.

Here´s a short where this thing is applied:
No me ama




Such a great photo

Every time I see this picture I remember how stressed I was. That´s my team in "Taller documental", and we were editing the final exercise called "El rescate". 
The picture was taken by all of us with my computer, and it shows our frozen faces of that night. We passed two nights without sleeping in Nacha´s home, it was awful. 
It was taken four days ago, and I don´t know why i like it so much, i should hate this picture, but instead of that, it reminds me how far I can go when I want to finish something.
In the photo we see starting on the left Francina, Nacha, me, and Cony. I think they are amazing, and together we are such a fantastic team every time we create artistic things. It is very nice to work with them, we always have a great time, and get laugh about all.
Here is the picture, and also shot made by us:



Valparaíso, my city our world heritage





Blog Session 6 - CHC

As I am free to choose a topic. Now i want to talk about a famous chilean band that now has been forgotten. This band was called CHC, and it was a band that played pop and hip-hop songs for around eight years, starting at 2001 and ending in 2009.
They released three official albums, and it was the third one that caught my attention. Its name was "La cosa", and all i can say about it are good things.
Actually this album, it was announced by the rolling stone magazine in the 35º place of the 50º best chilean albums of all time.
One of the interesting things is that one of the member of the band, nowadays, is the famous Pedro Piedra. And also, the famous filmmaker Sebastian Silva, who directed "The maid", "Old cats", "Crystal fairy" and "magic magic".
I invite you to listen this band. They are not together, but their songs are still alive.


Enjoy.
