Challenge 7: Spot the Spin

     On Extra.com, I read the article about Tori Spelling coming out and saying that both her husband and her cheated. I read more articles about her and came across another article in Access Hollywood about why the scandal could be fake. The Access Hollywood article gave pretty good reasons about why it could be fake, and the most compelling was that they needed money. She probably thought a scandal could get her a reality tv show, which would bring in money, much like it did to the Kardashians. Whether or not it's true, I see this as a celebrity spin.

Challenge 6: Media Mogul

     Looking throughout KickStarter, I came across the film titled "Perception." The story follows a mentally sick kid who stays in a mental hospital in the 1950s. It will be about how the child perceives the world around him and how this distorted perception affects the treatment he receives.
     The reason I chose this film was because I liked the concept. I would like to see a film about mental illness and how it affects one's perception. It would also help bring light to real issues involving mental health and how you should treat others. To be honest, I am not sure if the film will be popular with audiences, however, if done well, it should be interesting as well as stimulating.
