__**Student Avatar:**__ Hello my name is Tim. This image that I have chosen as my avatar is a South Park version of me. I chose to make a South Park avatar because South Park is one of my favourite TV shows. The picture is of me wearing long pants, a hooded jumper, earphones and a backpack because I almost always dress like that and I’m always listening to music. My facial expressions on my avatar are relaxed and I look tired, because I am always tired, ha-ha. I have my tongue poking out just to give my avatar some personality. It shows that I'm a relaxed person with a personality.

__**Student Banner: **__ My banner shows my interests in graffiti art and graphic designing. The image was created by me using photoshop and it gives me inspiration to create new designs. It is very colourful and intense. I cropped and image of me spray painting on it to show that I like aerosol art. It also shows that I am very interested in art.



__**The Story of Tom Brennan Movie Trailer:**__ This is a trailer based on The Story of Tom Brennan. It was created by David Haughey and Myself. Even though it is not an actual movie, it is based around the story line of the book. I hope you enjoy it!

I think that what happened to Ghyslain Raza is nothing but bullying. Even though he shouldn’t have left such a ridiculous video of himself in the school video room, I feel very sorry for him. After that video was released onto the internet by two of his peers, it became a worldwide sensation. Raza got a name for himself as ‘The Star Wars Kid’ and everywhere he went he was mocked and picked on. His life was changed forever and he will never lose his unwanted fame thanks to his two bullies. Saying that, I think the sum of money that the bullies’ parents had to fork out was dramatically over priced. I guess they shouldn’t have uploaded the video in the first place.

Personally I think that he should spin it and find a way to make millions off the free advertisement. "Lemonade out of lemons." As soon as everyone found out he was making money, or even trying to, they would all get off his back afraid of being caught in a scam. Any way you look at it he would come out on top. After it is all said and done with he would be flying first class with a large bill fold and everyone who laughed at him would be trying to catch up.

I agree with your statement. I think that he should take a spin on it to earn extra money, though I don’t think that people will stop making fun of him just because he is making money. I think that that reason might just make people pay him out more. They would think, hey he gets money from making an idiot of himself so we can pay him out and he won’t get offended by it. I think that everyone involved should have thought twice before being a part of this mess.
