snail and the hare

Gif

I liked this one the best because the colors i added in the background somehow give it like a soothing feel, and since I like music a lot then I most definitely believe it has won the contest.

Where good ideas come from

Alright so, not to try and just go with what everyone is saying but I have to say that I really liked the animated video. I mean I feel like with the animated one it grabbed my attention more, like I was more attracted to movement. But The Ted Talks video was also very nicely presented just more in a down to earth sort of way. I also believe that because this is a subject that not many people are going to really want to listen or learn about we sort of need something to keep us from paying attention and usually something that moves around or does something really cool, like with the animated video, it's going to, more than likely, grab ones attention.

(diffuse)

I kind of like this one because it gives it like a glowy feel to the picture. 

(grain)

This ones cool because it gives it a more textured old fashion look.

(ink outlines)

This one could probably be my favorite one because it gives it an edgy feel to the picture.

I would like to learn how to use photoshop cause usually when ever I go somewhere I like to take pictures and I would like to know how to be able to improve them with a touch up of sorts. Along with picture I also like to take videos of what we do, so I would also like to learn a way to edit them and such. I hope that I get to learn lots of new things that I will be able to use latter on in life.
