GOOGLE DAY #2

3 Goals for Today

look at educational steps to get career
Look up the best in the business and research what they did/where they come from/who they are

Best Links/Evidence of Learning
http://diplomaguide.com/articles/Filmmaker_Career_Profile.html
I liked this website because it literally gave me a pros and cons list of the perks and difficulties of becoming/having a career in film making as a director. I learned that it's a competitive field and requires long hours,difficult conditions, and salaries can vary. I also learned that its a job where you have a lot of freedom, express your ideas and be creative which all really appeal to me. The best part for me was that it also gave me a long and varied list of schools that have careers in film making like NYU, University of Illinios, and SCAD (just to name a few)
http://filmtvcareers.about.com/
This website I didn't like so much since it was just a lot of facts that I already knew but it did talk about some of the best directors/professionals in the film making business like one of my idols James Cameron and Steven Spielberg which compelled me to research about both of them. Where I found how they started out, where they studied, previous experience etc. All of this made me realize how gifted these people really are and how you have to be if you really want to make it in the business.

I loved this site because although it described the real life of how you career in film can be lit is also realistic and makes me realize how difficult the competition is in this field. Also how important connections are and having a good and stable network set up. I really liked this "Flexibility, persistence, hard work and motivation are all pre-requisites for success in the industry." because it prepares you for what you might be getting into.
What questions remain
because I want to keep researching yet another career because even though the 2 previous ones I loved I can't decide which of the two I like the most. I think it's pretty obvious that I want to do something in that industry. I think it's one of the only places where I can express myself and be creative.

Links with description of why they are useful to your goals

http://www.becomeopedia.com/how-to/become-a-magazine-editor.php 

This website was one of my favorites because it was literally a step by step porcess and shows what it enmtails, takes and what you will need to become a successful magazine editor.

-you need to have strong literacy skills, a creative vision and a good ethic. I think I have I have the first 2 but really have to work on my work ethic. I think that any job requires a good work ethic

-Things that could help me is to be in ap english courses like I am also having great spelling and grammar skills(I need to work on those) also getting into things in school like creative writing course, or publicity and advertsising.

-A four year bachelors degree with a major in writing, communications, or journalism sometimes people start of as an intern or directly as an assistant editor.

-I also found jobs that are similar to being a magazine editor like ADVERTISING EXECUTIVE, WRITER, JOURNALIST, EDITORIAL ASISSTANT.

http://www.ehow.com/facts_5594666_fashion-magazine-editor-job-description.html

-FASHION magazine editors get to travel all around the world in order to keep up with the latest fashion and trends. I think that it would be the most amazing thing ever you get paid to go around the world and get to see the art of fashion in shows, openings, and galleries. 

-the fashion magazine editor or any editor has to revise all the writing, proofread, edit, and reorganize which I think I'm going to have to work on my spelling and grammar and sense for this but I think that no one is exactly perfect for one job we all have things we can improve, learn and work on. 

- Anna Wintour who nhas basically been my idol since I could read maggazines, is probably one of the worlds most famous magazine editor as editor in cheif of Vogue magazine. I decided to read about her and how she got her career started 

http://www.biography.com/people/anna-wintour-214147

-Her father was the editor of London newspaper, whcih I guess helps a lot! She became editor in 1988 and totally changed the fashion industry she is known to be one of the mosty influential people in the buisness.She actually dropped out of her school when she was a teen and went to live in London, Her biggest inspiration was her father I though this quote was really cool People respond well to people who are sure of what they want. I guess we all have to be like this sometimes we have to be clear and forward, if we don'rt want to be dissapointed. Anna started her career in a magazine called Harper's and Queen and went rising up untill she got a job as fashion editor of Harper;s Bazaar in her early 20s, she left and then went to work in Viva. She spent a lot on all her work and always brought her own sense of style wherever he went. She then worked at British vogue then at HS where poeple were not so content of the changes she was making, she was later offered a job a to be editor in cheif of Vogue, were she pumped started the magazine again and got it back up she was the first to start incorporating low end and high end items in her ophotoshootdss and started putting celeberties more than models. She also helped some of the worlds most famous designers like marc jabos andf alexander mqueen be known to the fashion industruy. 

One thing that you want to learn next Google day

I want to look into other careers, even though I'm already dreaming of being Vogue's next editor in chief, who knows I might like another career even more

Internet Security: Cyber Bullying

-What you know about the topic before your research

I know that cyber bullying is a type of bullying that happens online/ via the internet.

-What you wonder or questions you have about the topic before researching (at least 2)

What is cyberbullying? (Definition) How doies cyber bullying take place? What role can school's play? What prevention methods can we take?

-Links to where you found the most useful information (at least 2, NOT Wikipedia, although you can use it to help you)

http://www.stopcyberbullying.org/what_is_cyberbullying_exactly.html This link was probably the most helpful since it is an actual organization that works to stop and prevent cyber bullying, it explained what it was very well and provided examples, it really helped me to get a good rounded idea of what cyber bullying is.

"There are two kinds of cyberbullying, direct attacks (messages sent to your kids directly) and cyberbullying by proxy (using others to help cyberbully the victim, either with or without the accomplice's knowledge). " -http://www.stopcyberbullying.org/how_it_works/index.html

I thought that this was interesting because I would've thought that there wasn't any classes or types of cyber bullying, especially the proxy where neither sides could be involved pretty scary!

-Bullet list of things you learned about the topic (at least 5)

-Cyberbullying has to have a minor on both sides or else it isn't considered cyber bullying.

-It can happen via mobile phone, computer,; any electronic device.

-Schools often get sued for trying to get involved in cyber bullying because they exeed their authority

-Schools most of the time end up loosing in cyber bullying fights that occur.

-Kids can loose their ISP or IM accounts due to cyber bullying.

-"if hacking or password and identity theft is involved,   be a serious criminal matter under state and federal law." http://www.stopcyberbullying.org/how_it_works/index.html

-Cyber bullying has caused many deaths and suicides of teens,preteens and even kids

-A short summary of how this topic connects/relates to you or your life

-Questions you still have (at least 1)

This topic connects and relates to my everyday life because everyday I see hurtful comments,posts, pictuures or videos either tormenting, critizizing, humiliating and hurting kids.. I had a close friend who commited suicide because of bullying, wether it be in person or online it has to be stopped now I understand how hurtful cyber bullying can be.Those comments that we thjink are funny and sometimes might not even mean any harm can effect the victim and us in very big ways. I think it really makes us think twice before posting or sending or writing anything online, we have to be a lot more consious of what we do via internet, or with any technology especially since once its out there its is next to impossibe to get back. I would like to know how I can prevent cyberbullying mong my friends or in my school, I think that people should be more aware of this topic and begin to take it a lot more seriously.
