Face Off Marathon

     I love learning about a new process.  Without going to school for something new it can be quite tricky to stay captivated by new topics.  Sometimes tv can help give us a window to the world.  Yes, there are horrible shows that waste precious time but others give us a new experience without leaving our home.  It is why my kids know about foods from around the world, how animals behave in the wild and what techniques can be used to  do a bazillion different things.  Sometimes it crosses over to entertaining and educating at the same time and even gives us a new perspective on something we didn't know much about.  We spent a morning relaxing and watching Face Off.  It is a show about the world of makeup and special effects for film and tv.  It is quite intriguing.  You learn about the process and the chemicals and the artistic directions that go with the themes.  It gives you a behind the scenes look at a world you might not even know existed.  It will also train us to give films an additional layer of depth and admire the creativity that is behind these artists.  We are excited about the new season!
