First Blog Post.

Hello! My name is Nick Sivak and I have lived here in State College almost all my life. I’m majoring in Video and Film Production, and that is part of the reason why I took this course. Filmmakers look at things differently all the time and showing people a new way to look at things is an important aspect of a filmmaker. That is why I chose this class, to look at different topics in a new light. I am not planning to be a science major because science can get very complicated and there is very much that is not known about all of existence. Science classes in high school were interesting sure, but it just didn’t mix well with me. I like a little more structure in my life and being able to entertain people is something I found more interesting.

Speaking of looking at things in a new way, here is a 360° video from the cockpit of a jet that can be watched in virtual reality.

And likewise here is an interesting optical illusion my physics teacher showed us last year.
