Module One Post One (Correlation Between Math and Ballet)

On this site it talks about the relationship between math and ballet, like ballet and fractions. This post is by Ashley Chin-Mark. It shows the origins of ballet and the different types of math behind ballet.There needs to be exact measurements to create the perfect pointe shoe. And the different angles and how they need to be perfect to do the perfect lift. This site also explains that Aurora (from the Sleeping Beauty ballet) needs to have the perfect pirouettes and ponches. 

This is helpful to me because it shows me there is much more to each move and step.  Each arm line has to be straight and if it isn’t then the symmetry is off. It shows that there IS math in ballet and that ballet is much more complicated than it seems.

the website that i used i think was pretty good because the information sounded pretty right .when i was reading the website was talking about aerodynamics and the angle you are on.and how the people curve it when they shoot the ball.that why its makes it kinda hard to do the math but it tells you how to do it and what are the problemes and stuff.

In this artical, Khan Academy has teamed up with Pixar to explore new subjects.

This is my website:

In the video it shows:

-artists, scientists, animators, coders, sculptures

-starts with an idea, they figure out the storyline with drawings

-the storyboards string together all the pictures\

-have to figure out how they use a computer to move the characters.

-have to make the landscapes

-add music and dialogue

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Modules One Post One (Geometry in Lacrosse)

This website is by Hannah Koehler on angles, parallel lines and geometry in Field Lacrosse. It shows how parallel lines appear in lacrosse, and how they are important par of the rules while playing. It also shows the angles used to shoot the ball into the net. As well as the shapes and sizes of the net, ball and stick.

This website will help me with my project because it showed me that there is more than just the shooting angles that help with the mathematics of lacrosse. And that lacrosse has math in every play and move you make, including all the rules.

Module One Post One (Math Behind The Movies: An Interview With Tony DeRose From Pixar)

This website will help me with my project because it talks about how Tony DeRose from Pixar got into mathematics as a kid and how his 7th grade science teacher showed him how to use trigonometry to calculate how high the rockets went. He thought that it was magical and way better than equations on paper. He also talks about how he got to work with Pixar. I think it’s really important to know how someone thinks about movies before actually figuring out what are exactly the math behind movies.
