Grey's Anatomy blog

Grey's Anatomy Season 12 Episode 8 

GOOD TECHNIQUES: 

I like the different shots being used. The showing of nasty body parts and blood takes real effort. The producer did a good job of showing each of the characters personality and job focus. It also shows good makeup work.


BAD TECHNIQUES: 

The producer did a bad job of showing the hurt persons point of view. I would like to have seen one episode on what the patients think. I want to know if they like how they were treated and if they liked the service. Overall the show isn't a bad show and the producer is very smart. 


WHAT I WILL IMPLEMENT: 

I will implement the coloring in the camera work so the color can also effect the mood. I will also implement the seriousness of all the different things going on. I also want to add the different camera angles that are added. There are many things to add but only some of them can be added to journalism.

Kids get Halloween Surprise

Nearly 40 lucky kiddos will be trick-or-treating in style, sporting their brand new, absolutely epic wheelchair costumes built by Magic Wheelchair, a nonprofit that teams with volunteers across the country to create the elaborate ensembles fitted for their chairs.
“It impacts these kids in a deeper way than just the smile on their face,” Magic Wheelchair’s founder, Ryan Weimer of Kaizer, Oregon, told ABC News. “That’s one of the beautiful things of what we do. They really get the sense of what true joy is.”

http://abcnews.go.com/Lifestyle/children-tricked-wheelchair-costumes-magical-halloween/story?id=50733459

The writer did a good job of including sentimental words and used good tone to make the readers feel happy for the kids. I think the author could have  used more pictures because all the costumes were so cute!! I will add the tone into my writing skills for my writing! I can't wait to use these skills.

Tom Petty Died

Rocker Tom Petty died Monday after being rushed to a Los Angeles hospital, according to Tony Dimitriades, longtime manager of Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers. Dimitriades confirmed Petty's death on behalf of the performer's family.
He was 66.
"He suffered cardiac arrest at his home in Malibu in the early hours of this morning and was taken to UCLA Medical Center but could not be revived. He died peacefully at 8:40pm PT surrounded by family, his bandmates and friends," Dimitriades said in a statement.
The group finished a summer tour with three performances at the Hollywood Bowl last week.
Petty and the Heartbreakers first came to fame in the 1970s. It was both with that group and as a solo artist that Petty had a string of hits across the decades, including "Free Fallin'," "American Girl" and "I Won't Back Down."
The reporter did well on giving the who, what, when, what and why in the first paragraph. He gave good detail about Tom Petty's death. Also the reporter used diction and a proper word choice to send out the "peaceful" death. 
The reporter did a great job. One because he covered Tom Petty (the greatest artist alive) and he did a great job on recapping his life.

I definitely will not be learning from this and you cannot force this into my brain.

I am not a leader.
