My Favorite Movie

Imagen
My favorite movie in life is Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Is a science fiction, romantic and drama film. The story is about a separated couple: Joel and Clementine. They have erased each other, through a memory erasing procedure, and then, they meet again.  The story takes place in Joel's mind during the memory erasing procedure. Joel finds himself revisiting his memories with Clementine. But when Joel sees the happiest memories, he tries to preserve some happy memory of her and his love of her. And there begins a tragic-comic flight from Joel and Clementine through Joel's Mind so as not to be erased. This is mind-bending, because you don't know what's going on in the movie. Personally, I didn't understand anything when I saw, but the game between reality and Joel's mind, besides it's surreal and dreamlike scenes are so amazing. I couldn't stop to seeing it!   I love this movie because it uses a non-linear narrative to explain an...

Camera Obscura

My favorite technological device is the photographic camera because I can capture what happens around me and the way I see it. The first camera that I had was a gift from my dad. It was a digital camera. I used to capture many family meetings and happy moments with friends. Besides, I learned about the functions of the camera and how they operate, which helped me a lot to take better pictures. My favorite function is double exposure because I can combine two exposures to create a single image, for example, an image can be composed by a portrait and an abstract or landscape photo with a lot of textures. After that, I started photographing places and other things, such as the urban scene, what happens on the street, how people act and how they relate to each other. I discovered how much I love documentary photography. Currently, since I'm studying photography, I use the camera regularly because it helps me with university projects and, in my free time, I take pictures of places t...

The Revenge

Imagen
Hello everyone!!  Since I was a child I liked arts, specially photography, because my father attended a basic course of photography so he had cameras and books related to it. Photography is something that have always caught my attention. Besides, in my house's library there were so many books and I always looked at those that talked about history of art. However, when I graduated from school I didn't study arts, it wasn't even among my options. As I said in another post, I studied Odontology, but in 2016 when I was in my third year, I left and decided to study arts. In the beginning, I was very insecure about this decision because it was my second programme, my parents were angry and I had to move in a new city. Too many changes! Over time, my parents understood my decision and now they support me in everything, because they see me really happy. My experience at university until now has been so nice and I learned a lot about arts. I have discovered that I love...

A little piece of my life.-

My name is Melisa Castillo Santander and I'm 24 year old. Currently, I'm an art student, but before, I studied Odontology for three years until I decided to leave this programme. In the beginning, I wanted to study it, because I wished to fix people's smiles and somehow change their lives. However, my classmates and the environment were not amiable. My classmates competed among them, some of them didn't talk to me because I was a rival for them, and my teachers encouraged them to compete. Finally, in my third year I went to classes just for 2 weeks and I gave up, because I realized that it was not what I wanted to do in my life. After that, I worked in several jobs, save up money and I decided to study something that I really like and that I've liked since I was a child: Arts. Now, I can't believe that I'm in the last year of my career! Because of this decision, I came to live in Santiago. Before, I lived in Talca with my mom, my sister, my brother ...
