Your school or university television station is a good place tostart, but you have to get a job!Most people work without pay from the start, so they can learn.

The film starring Johnny Depp and Orlando Bloom, two of them are widely known love welcome party. Two of them acting in the film very well, making the role believable. Story is about an old ship, which sailed around the Caribbean islands. Depp and Bloom trying to find some of the missing gold, then they encounter some bad guys have to start fighting with them. There are many fight scenes video, looks really thrilling. They also rescued Ji Lanaiteli, she plays Elizabeth, the daughter of a rich man. Knightley and Bloom's some very beautiful scene, romantic. Although the film is not a reflection of reality, but exciting, in some places is still very funny. This is a very nice movie, although I think the fight scenes too. But other than that, it is still a good movie. If this movie just did not see when you release it, I suggest you go now, I'm sure you'll like it. Film will be released one week.Module 7Ling-Ling: Welcome to the Beihai Park.Sally: Really quiet! I can barely hear the voice of the street car and no one yelled. I can even hear the birds sing!
