WACOM INTUOS DRAW TABLET

Today my Wacom Intuos Draw Tablet arrived, so I will be doing a review/ first impressions of it.

I've never used a graphics tablet before, so I didn't really have any expectations. The set up was very quick and simple. I also downloaded ArtRage lite, as it came free with the purchase.

Actually using the tablet feels almost like drawing on paper, this tablet is really good because the more pressure you apply to the tablet the thicker the line your drawing will be! The tablet comes with 3 spare pen nibs that are stored into the back of the tablet so they safe.

If you have any questions about this tablet, comment below.

NIKON D3200

I got a new camera! I was previously using the 'Sony WX100' (which is really good), but I wanted to ditch the compact digital camera and try a DSLR camera. DSLR cameras are such a good investment, as once you have the camera body, you can have multiple lenses for different needs. I was stuck between the Canon 1200D and Nikon D3200, but I chose the Nikon camera because the video and photo quality is higher not only spec wise but also when looking at reviews.

The Nikon D3200 is very simple to use and therefore would be a perfect camera for beginners like myself. Below are some photogarphs I have took using the Nikon D3200.

MOVIE RECOMMENDATIONS

SPEAK

The movie is about Melinda who goes through a traumatic experience during summer and chooses not to speak because of it. As the movie goes on she starts to slowly open up more about what happened during that summer. Kristen Stewart plays Melinda and gives such an amazing performance.

THE BRASS TEAPOT

This movies is about a couple that end up with a magical teapot that produces money when they feel pain. The couple are uncertain with how far they are willing to go for money. They end up doing some crazy things, and at one point are considering murder. The movie overall is actually really nice and I think it teaches you a lovely lesson on how money cannot buy you happiness

PALO ALTO

The only reason I watched this movie was because Nat Wolff was in it lol. However the movie was amazing. It is mainly about April (Emma Roberts) who is a shy and innocent girl. April is torn between 'stoner teddy' who she has a crush on, and her soccer coach who she is actually going out with. She gets used by her teacher and finds it hard to express her feelings towards Teddy.

The movie also focuses on other characters such as Emily, who is the school slut and Fred, who is worryingly reckless.

MONA LISA SMILE

I absolutely love this movie! The movie is about a free- thinking art professor (Julia Roberts) that is teaching in a conservative 1950's all girl school. She challenges them to question their traditional social roles. This doesn't always go the way she wants and can be challenging for her, but she has strong views and wouldn't change them for the world.

IT'S KIND OF A FUNNY STORY
The movie is about Craig, a suicidal 16 year old who checks himself into a mental- health clinical. However the youth wing is closed, so he must spend his stay with the adults. The movie follows him through his struggle to get better. He finds himself drawn to Noelle, who helps him get over his crush on his best friends girlfriend.


Are there any movies that you have loved lately?

p.s. I'm currently watching 'The Art of Getting By'.
