All my posts and a final reflection

During the last 6 weeks, were created several posts, in which were addressed the different perspectives of our topic about literature, addapted to media channels. Next, will be presented the ones that I did.

Final Reflection: What all I can say is, this was a great experience of blogging, because it was not only allowed me to learn more about the topic we were investigating, like the existence of very complete websites about books that I never imagine that could be created, or even Youtube channels about books reviews, aspects which prove that Internet and his users are constantly in a way of innovation and creativity.
On the other hand, it also helped me how to deal with Blogger and his tools.
Still, I would say that Ink to Screen helped me to improve my journalistic skills, like hyperlinks, photo captions or videos inclusion on posts.

My posts and my opinion

First of all, here's a list of all my posts in order of their publication:
1. Literature, movies and me
2. Scott Pilgrim vs. The Awesome Movie Adaptation (a personal favorite)
3. Behind my work
4. Peter Jackson, The Lord of The Movies (another favorite)
5. Social Networks: Everyone can be a critic
6. My 3 favorite book adaptations of this year (That I have watched) 

Me as a blog writer
And now it's time to give my personal experience on blogging. I have to make clear that never had I ever posted on a blog before this one (well, except the personal I had to do for the same subject as this one). That is why I feel it was really interesting seeing how my style improved and grew. The topic of the blog was also helpful since it was something I like and I know a thing or two about.

Choosing how to tackle each post and what movies or series to talk about was really entertaining, and it helped me learn more about something I enjoy. Finding out how to use multimedia content was also captivating and I ended up being invested in finding the best use of it. 


The end has come. It's time for me to reunite with my family.
With this in mind, I would like to thank you all for taking part in this little adventure. It is now time to close this last post (unless I decide to post more for some reason), and with it,t he time to say goodbye.

Let me tell you, It was not as bad as I thought. I quite enjoyed this, even though the annoying deadlines and some specific topics that you might noticed through the course of blog were not as entertaining *cough* *cough* Sources I use *cough* *cough*
Anyhow, the blogs where a useful way to learn and to express things I like as I already said on the first blog (A Filmlover/Bookworn doing Blogs), especially with the story times and the Martin Scorsese blogs, those where with no doubt my best blogs.

All in all, I want to end this on a good note so, I'm going to do the 50/50 Challenge from Reddit. If you want to know what is exactly the 50/50 challenge, go check out the Fine Brothers videos. 

Now, Shall we begin?

LIST OF MY POSTS


I also made an extra post:


MY OPINION

My experience as a blogger has been very positive. I have learned many things, not only about design but about ember code, which were really useful for my posts. It was also a great responsibility, since I had to write an article once a week and make sure my team did as well. But I feel proud about the result. They were as responsible as me, and together we created a blog with interesting content and lots of multimedia.

Graphip description of me as a blogger
I had the chance to talk about books, TV shows and films, which for me was an incredible oportunity.

In conclusion, I have loved being a part of this blog, and I am already looking foward to make the website. Although I had published in other blogs before, this experience was unique and amazing. I wish we could have had more time, because I had a great time posting about a topic I am really interested about: adaptations.



My links + my blog experience

MY LINKS
Growing up with the Grimm´s tales
How to bring a comic to life: The Walking Dead
What are my main sources?
How the media covers our topic
Steven Spielberg, a genius on the big screen
"The Handmaid's Tale", among the best adaptations of the year

MY EXPERIENCE  
I have really enjoyed working on the blog because we chose a topic that I was reallly interested in. It was not always easy to come up with ideas of each post. However, now that I am able to collect the links of all my posts, I really feel that all this hard work was been worth it. Working with other people also made the experience more interesting; because, until now, I was used to write blogs all by myself. I feel like we have helped each other along the way, and that every member of the group has learnt something new during this journey. Social media has also been a great tool to reach more people and potential readers (thanks to our Instagram and Twitter accounts).

It has been really intesting to be able to write about something that I love and to be able to share my posts with anyone who wants to read them. I founded out also that, thanks to the internet, we are able to share our ideas and opinions. So, now, I would not say that "nobody cares about our blog" because I definetly cared, and so did the other members of my group. I guess that is the end. Thank you very much for following and reading our blog!

My 3 favorite book adaptations of this year (That I have watched)

   I will be honest, I haven't watched many series or movies that have come out this year. This is  why the list consist of only 3 entries. The entries may probably not be the best content from this year, but  did enjoy it,  and that is what I believe counts. With this in mind, let's start the list.

3. 13 Reasons Why

  One of the most popular series this year has been 13 Reasons Why and I only watched it because i wanted to jump on the bandwagon. I ended up enjoying it, although I found it to be a bit over average at best. The series is a Netflix exclusive based on the book with the same name by Jay Asher. It talks about a teenager girl called Hannah Baker  who commits suicide and leaves 7 cassette tapes in which she gives 13 reasons to why se has done it. Her friend Clay receives them ad starts listening to them to discover what happened.

  The reason the series hooked me was that if Clay had received the tapes, he was in one of them. And I really wanted to know what he had done. by the time I arrived there I really wanted to see the series until the end.

  The series was not polemic-free. Due to its portrayal of suicide, some people hated on it saying it romantiziced it while others praised it for giving awareness to these kind of topics. The main result of this was that it gained even more popularity.

2. A Series of Unfortunate Events

  Based on the book series "A Series of Unfortunate Events" by Daniel Handler under the pseudonym Lemony Snicket, this Netflix series adapts the first four books and a second season is supposed too cover the next five books. Each book is developed in two chapters. The series follow the Baudeliere brothers as their parents are killed in a fire and they are sent to their supposed relative Count Olaf, who tries to kill them to get their fortune in many different.

  The series is quite entretaining, with a fair amount of humor and drama alike. The pacing is quite good and it makes you want to keep watching. Overall, although not the best series out there, it is really entretaining.

3. Logan

  My favorite movie of this year so far. I really loved. It is based on various stories of Marvel's character Wolverine, including Old Man Logan, one of my favorites. It talks about an aged Wolverine in which mutants are almost extinct. he takes careof a senile Charles Xabier. After some conflict he finds a girl who doesn't talk and he has to take care of her. I won't tell more in order not to spoil the movie.



  Everything about it is great: the plot is interesting, the characters are likable, the action scenes are superb and it even has some moments that can make you cry. It is also the last movie with Hugh Jackman as Wolverine, or so has he said, so we might as well appreciate it while we can.

Room



This was without any doubt one of the best films from 2016.
The performances were espectacular. Brie Larson totally deserved that Oscar and the little Jacob Tremblay has make a path for himself in the acting world.

If you haven't seen Room, you should totally do it. But don't confuse Room with The Room, that is a whole different story. (That one has been catalog as the worst movie ever, but if you want to watch it ironically, oh boy, get ready to cringe)

Going back to the marvelous Room, the scenery in the room looks amazing. At the beginning you can see how Mom and Jack live in that tiny space and how Jack doesn't feel claustrophobic, that small room is his whole life, but for her mother, is the constant reminder that she is kidnap and rape by a sick man that lives next to the shed they call Room.

For seven years that has been her life: a shed with a bed, two chairs a small kitchen, a bathtub, a toilet and a closet where she has to hide her little boy from the night's she's rape by Old Nick.

Emma Donoghue, the writer portrayed that story scenery in her books that is unbelievable because is actually narrated by the little jack, that is only 5 years old. And to think that it was based on a case where the girl was rape by his father makes it worse. If you want more insight about the creepy story that inspired the great book.
