My Audio and Video Work

Line 1:Hello this is Karen Brown and I am here today talking to you all about my career goals. I would go into the mass communications field in broadcasting with that broadcasting degree i would like to transfer over to USC, university of southern California and hopefully get involved with E! entertainment, with E!
Line 2: I would like to get involved in the celebrity broadcasting, celebrity news. I've always felt that meant to be around the celebrities and what not so I would like to get involved in that. Being involved in that I know it takes a lot of work and struggle within your degree that is why I believe you should always go for schooling first like an internship,
Line 3: through internships you can allow your self to blossom and grow within you field. I hope everyone takes into consideration getting an internship and allowing themselves to grow as individuals within their field. Thank you this has been Karen Brown

My Audio and Video Work

Line 1:Hello this is Karen Brown again and today I will be talking to u about my mass communications class which is media writing in my class we learn about all aspects of writing movies, video games commercials comedy skits how things coincide with each other you never one of things that was most interesting to me was writing for video games.
Line 2: You never think to write for video games with their scene cuts and how things with the instructions on how to writing directions to operate the video games. Another aspect of media writing is writing for movies.
Line 3:You have to think about the whole story first you and your producer kinda need to sit down together and think about what you actually want to write. When you want to write for a movie you want to have your setting, story plot, and characters, and your characters you want to feed off of.
Line 4: In my other blog you can see the hero's journey and that can also help you for your movies I hope this helps.

The podcast would not load on here I sent it to your email.

My Audio and Video Work


Script:
Line 1: Hello once again this is Karen Brown I decided on this video blog post to talk about something that's near and dear to my heart. Reality Tv! Now reality TV is supposely fictious and one of the shows that enjoy and love is The Hills.
Line 2: The Hills as you have seen written in my blog. I have wrote about every episode in season 5 and I have done some extensive research about reality tv. Today I spoke with my teacher about reality tv and I guess it was me who was a believer.
Line 3: But reality televison is supposely fake and it is only used for ratings to help networks. Which will help networks like movies.. well not movies but will help advertise for things. Like if I'm watching The Hills and they want to have a new movie out of course they are going to push all of those advertisements.
Line 4: So therefore I'll see everything. They know people are dedicated watchers of reality televison. I guess reality televison is just a scam then because it's all fake its just made to make other people money. Why would I want to help other people make money? I need money. Thanks

Script:
Line 1: Hi this is Karen Brown and today I will be talking to you on how to create a story line in a movie. Now in class we were given this form and it talks about the Hero's journey. On here I will go briefly though it.
Line 2: It talks about the audience meets the hero. Which is typical in the movie Shrek, you meet the orger and then you go on to the refusal to call. His refusal to call was when he was to go save princess Fiona.
Line 3: The dilemma that his is faced with is he thought he was too ugly so that's your refusal to call. Next you have the threshold this is when the hero will accept the offer. Which engages the audience into the movie. Which makes you feel sorry for him because he's accepted something he really doesn't want to.
Line 4: Next thing would be the approach the inmost cave, which is an ordeal, the ordeal that Shrek went through was fighting the prince trying to get princess Fiona. Skipping along would be the resurrection
Line 5: Shrek ending up with her in the end so I know this was a brief and quick overview of the Hero's Journey I hope this helps those out there Thank You

Blog Post Series #3

"I pretty much do anything they have me do because I don't care. I mean, we're filming a TV show. Let's make it interesting. Let's have a good time with it," Cavallari told The Los Angeles Timesin a Monday report. (http://www.realitytvworld.com/news/kristin-cavallari-the-hills-isnt-real-producers-tell-me-what-do-9632.php) It makes me so sad that some one from the show I love so much has just admitted to show being fake. =( I think when lauren was on the show it was better. Maybe the show started off real and as more viewers tuned in the producers began to add in certain topics to keep the show thriving. I think possibly the producers went a little over board with some of the situations that each character went through. As the article continues Kristen continues to say how The Hills is just a job and its fun. Now that I think on the show I suppose their lives are a little bit to glamours and extravagant. I do hope people appreciate this mini series on the insight of The Hills. If you ever have any questions about television show's the internet will def. answer all of your questions! Sadly, the internet gave me the answer I didn't want to hear.

Blog Post Series #2

After doing some research on reality shows (http://ezinearticles.com/?How-Real-is-Reality-TV?&id=191704) I see that people are pressured to be outrageous and to act outside of character for rating purposes. This makes sense in the terms of some networks trying to make a name for themselves. What better way to get viewers, having people argue and fight on national television. What we still don't know is if The Hills is fake.. in the article by Michael Russell he just continues to touch on the purposes of reality television. I am going to continue to look into The Hills mystery real or fake? Michael Russell makes a good point on how people tend to act out of character due to the people they are forced to live with. Some could argue that their character wasn't properly portrayed due to having to be around the same people 24/day. For instance several of the girls said this after being on the hit show Top Model.

Blog Post Series #1

Hello! I am here to talk to you all about reality shows. Something that is so near and dear to my heart. If you have visited my blog recently you will see my favorite show is The Hills. Now many may say this show is fake and a lot of it is stupid but I enjoy it so much! In my mass communications class we learned how reality show is altered. Altered meaning that the characters are set up in situations and it is based on how the characters react to the situation. In my mind that is basically reality right? They are reacted with their own feelings and emotions, there isn't anyone around telling the cast mates how to react. In my further blogs you will see that I am going to do extensive research on reality show. How could people try to ruin something so great! Everyone Watch THE HILLS!

Season Finale of The Hills

Well I'm sad to say that season 5 of The Hills has come to an end. This last episode was quite interesting, where should I begin? Kristen and Justin Bobby giving their relationship a real chance!! I was so shocked.. from what I hear she isn't even with him anymore I think she just did that for the show. This would not shock me that she only took him from Audrina for fun. What makes it so sad is that Audrina expressed her feeling to Justin Bobby and he completely blew her off for about the third time! Poor thing she just can't catch a hint. As for Heidi and Spencer they made some improvements with their baby talk. Spencer confronted Heidi about her pregnancy test and it turns out she isn't pregnant. Spencer explained that everything comes with time. This was very shocking for Spencer to say I really think he's starting to grow up. Their relationship is really beginning to blossom. Someone's relationship that isn't doing so well is Brody and Jade's. Jade wants to move in with Brody and he is definitely not having that. I think Brody is just tired of Jade being so controlling which most males deal with in their relationships. I do wish them the best of luck! Well that's all I have this week I have truly enjoyed letting the world read my thoughts on my favorite show THE HILLS!

The Hills

hello everyone so we all saw the episode with Justin Bobby surprising Kristen in Vegas! I was so surprised is he just a sucker for her because she rejects him all of the time!! Because I was so disappointed in him trying to get on her good side by doing everything she wants him to do, when we all know she only likes him to create problems on the show! She is def. known for string up trouble on the show and she is def. living up to her reputation. As for Audrina talking to Justin's friend that is kind of a low blow because he is close to both of them. I believe he is playing both sides of the fence talking to both of them. As for Heidi her and spencer have a pretty boring life all she talks about is getting pregnant and I am just like plan it already instead of trying to trap Spencer I mean come on you guys are married! But I must run it saddens me to say the season finale is next week. This has been such a quick season, I feel like we really didn't see much this season!

And it continues...

Hello everyone! So The Hills this week was everything I was looking for! Lets start with Kristen she finally got the boot from Brody. She needs to understand you can be a home wrecker all the time! You don't always get what, so her dissing Justin was dumb, but I was happy in a way because maybe he will see that Audrina his for him like I thought along. As for the fake people on The Hills when did Heidi and Lo start hanging out? If Lauren was there they would not be hanging out or even talking. Last season she wouldn't even look Heidi's direction now she hangs with her on a regular basis. This is too much to me, and did anyone notice that Brody's mom plastic surgery looks HORRIBLE her face looks like plastic. Almost as mad as Jermaine from the Jackson's (I'm sure I misspelled his name but I had to point him out) his face looks like oil ran all over it and thats the result of his face looking like clay. I don't understand why people with money continue to get surgery to try to make themselves "better" but they end up looking 10x worse!

The Hills... and it continues..

Hello All,
Yesterday's episode was a little boring in my opinion. You had audriena talking to Justin Bobby about how she wants to be back with him, and he shuts her down. I did feel bad about what he said to her; it was very harsh and some what insensitive. Maybe this is what it took for her to finally leave him along. He was no good for her anyways. Kristen once again is ruining more lives, going in on Jade's man like that, they have only been broken up for about a week and he has already started seeing brody! People on the Hills need to get their lives together. As for Heidi she is still trying to have a baby with Spencer. He went crazy and decided to take that drastic measure and tried to "temporarily" stop himself from having kids. I don't know who told him it was temporary but he got that rude awakening when he the doctor told him it was not reversible! That was too funny when we all say his face! Well I suppose stay tuned to next week's Hills update =)

The Hills I love it!

Hello everyone! Now this week of The Hills was quite entertaining!! Lets start with Heidi getting her brand new ‘babies’ must I add baby PUPPIES!! They were so cute. I am not sure though if I would want two dogs to have to take care of, Spencer went a little over board with that. Anyways, moving on to Audrina and Kristen that was so CRAZY! They got into a fight over Justin Bobby! Come on now he is playing both of them. They made themselves look very stupid fighting over him. As for next week’s preview it showed that Justin and Audrina are talking about getting back together and he completely blows her off. I felt so sorry for her but I will let that wait until next week’s blog.

On another note, I was sadly disturbed when in my MCM class we spoke on The Hills being fake. I am still a believer =)

the Hills so sad i missed this week

Hello all I have been very busy this week getting ready for homecoming, that all I have time for is studying and do stuff for homecoming. I am proud of the work I have accomplished but I will be sooo happy when homecoming is over with! I will be able to rest and enjoy my sleep =). As for the hills I do hope I will be able to post something on here over the next couple of days about this weeks episode. I know it's suppose to be a crazy episode so I can't wait to watch it. I do hope everyone has a fun and save homecoming weekend! My professor said something that was interesting and shocking to me when we were leaving class. She said, “don’t make this homecoming your real homecoming” and she meant dying and going to heaven. I was like wow! Its true but it could have been phrased better. Well good night.

Week 4

Ok Ladies and Gents! This week on the Hills was crazy! Why is Justin trying to play the field hello? Go back to Audrina!! She actually cares about him. Kristen on the other hand she went and told her father about Justin she def. cares wayyy more than she is trying to lead on. She just tries to front like "I don't care about boys" YOU DEF DOO KRISTEN!! The good part about this episode is when Justin finally talks to Audrina and says there will never be another uu in my life I was soo excited when he said that!! I almost melted!! ahhh and OMG i miss Lauren she needs to make a guest appearance because it is getting a little boring watching Kristen try to have a life. Also something that shocked me was Heidi's sister she was soo drunk she needs to slow it downn!

Well I’m off folks hopefully next week will be a better episode.

The Hills Update Week 1

OK ladies!! What did you think about the new Hills!!?? I was so excited to see that everyone is back to their dramatic ways of fighting. Lets start with umm Kristen as the new narrator umm... I don' THINK SO! I miss lauren, at least when she was the narrator she had some enthusiasm in her voice. Kristen just drags on, and on. Since we are on Kristen, why is she trying to get at Audrina's man??!! She just got on the show and is already starting in on who she wants. Kristen had already picked fights with two of the older cast mates (Lo, and Audrina) it really seems like she got on the show to make frienemies! She is doing a great job at it. Moving on to the other's Heidi and Spencer seem happy as usual but I'm sure it won't last long. Audrina still looks a bit tired in the face with her same old expression during the show but hopefully her love life will turn around. Well that's all I have to say this week about The Hills be sure to tune in next Tuesday (I hate the new time and day) at 10. =)

The Hills

How many of you watch The Hills? With Lauren gone this season should get pretty dramaful! With new cast mate Kristen (from L. Beach) she is going to make trouble for the older cast mates. How many of you disagree with Lauren leaving the show? From what I read online Audrina will be getting her own show. Did she not learn from the other cast mate getting her show? No one will watch Audrina I most likely won't. Lauren just needs to return to The Hills. I know she was tired of the cameras always following her but her life was so interesting. Many believe The Hills is fake and is not a reality show but that doesn't matter to me it is soo entertaining! Stay tuned Tuesday for the Season Premier of The Hills. I will def. be writing on my blog with my opinions of this season!
