Dispatch issue #4


 The first story on page 12 was the story about the play "Mary Poppins". It was a good story and it was about the behind the scenes and what it took to get this play to perfection. It mainly focused on the roles of the main characters especially the role of Mary Poppins. Madeline Sparkes was the main character in this play, aka the person that played Mary Poppins Everybody was saying that she really brought the play to life and made it entertaining.

The main person that was quoted in this story was Madeline Sparkes, Mary Poppins. 
" [Mary Poppins] has magical powers and it amazes the kids and she leaves once she recognizes that they do not need her anymore"
The lead sentence was decent and it could make some people read for more but not me.


The story on page 6 is about how movies have changed in this generation. From in the 80's old corny movies to now where we have CGI and better graphics. In modern technology we let computers and electronics do all of our work as apposed to back the when we only had a film camera and costumes. The writer of this story is trying to compare our society through movies. He gets quotes about people who think that there is a lot of changing being done.
There were a lot of different teachers and former students quoted in this story.
"now there's just so much pressure i think for people to get their college credit and do this and do that and people cram all night long; i didn't do any of that."
 


The story on page 14 is about how apple, 900 billion company, scammed older iphone users into thinking that the only reason for slowing down their phones was because  of the fact that the lithium-ion battery wasn;'t going to last too long. The writer puts his claim in the story and supports it with other people quoting. He said that his idea was so simple that even a high school student could think of it so there is no way that a company that big couldn't come up with it. Anybody could think of his idea so he is saying that they are bsing their customers to make them buy the newer versions of iphones.
There were a lot of students that helped the writer support his claim that apple was scamming its customers.
"Apple's main goal here isn't to fix the battery life of their phones, but rather to direct  its customers towards buying the newest greatest phones they release."

PHOTOGRAPHY
( On page 7 the photos with a person lying dead) In this picture i see some nice lighting choices. The photographer used a nice mix between the f stop, shutter speed and ISO. She found the right choices and it really shows in her picture. I see some nice balance in this photo which is what brings the photo to life.  The main subject is the person lying dead in the play.
