I'm recording.
So we'll just get this started
really easy.
Okay.
What did you have for breakfast this
morning?
Oh, I had an Apple turnover.
Hopefully it's made.
But.
It was very good.
So generally we start the
profiles with you
stating your name,
your age or year in school.
You can say, you know, I'm
my name is Cordelia and
you use your whole name.
I'm 17 or I'm a senior
at Wisconsin Virtual Academy.
Okay.
So just something like that.
No?
Okay.
My name is Cordelia Fredrickson.
I'm 17 and a senior
at the Wisconsin Virtual Academy.
Wonderful.
And how long have you been playing
the violin?
I've been playing violin for
14 years.
Is that the instrument that you
first started with?
Yes, it is.
Do you play any other instruments?
I used to play piano
and a little bit of viola
for chamber music.
You're hearing that.
Is there any way to shut up?
Yeah, that sounds terrible
We can be cold for a little bit.
Oh, there you go. Yep.
That's perfect.
Thank you. Yeah, thanks.
Yeah, we just heard that kick
in, but.
Yep, all good.
Okay,
so how long did you say
you've been playing the violin?
Fourteen years.
And what made you decide
to stick with violin instead of
piano or viola?
That's a good question.
It was the violin.
Well, the violin was what I started
with. So it was kind of
automatically my favorite.
But I think how
it sounds is still
my favorite out of all three.
What do you like most about how
it sounds?
Um, I like how much
it resonates and how
different but similar the
strings sound and how
difference violins can make such
different tones in
general.
Have you always had the same violin,
the same instrument, or have
you changed over the years?
So as I grew,
because I started when I was
really little,
as we grow we change sizes
for the instrument.
So I've used different
violins throughout the years as
I've needed bigger violins.
How long have you had the one that
you're playing on right now?
I would say
maybe four or five years I
got my violin when I was going
into eighth grade.
What prompted you to take
up the violin in the first place?
Um...
I think my parents started me
on the violin, and
when I started it, I really enjoyed
playing it.
And how old were you
when they started you with lessons?
Um, three and a half years
old?
Obviously you enjoyed playing
the violin. Yes.
Yes, I did.
So you never had a problem with
practicing or
finding time?
I remember it as enjoying
working on violin,
but I'm sure there were a lot
of struggles just with
how young children are
when they have to do something.
Do your parents play instruments
as well?
They both play piano.
Have you ever played duets with your
parents?
When I was first doing violin,
my mom would play the piano part
for all of the music that I
was working on, so that was really
fun.
Has your mom
or your dad ever accompanied you
for competitions?
Not for competitions, but
for the Suzuki Strings concerts,
my mom would play with me.
And do you also have any
siblings, any brothers or sisters?
Yes, I have one little sister
who is six years old and
her name is Charlotte.
Um, does she
play any instruments?
Yes, she started learning piano
and she really enjoys
that as well.
Does she like to play with you?
She likes to practice at the same
time that I am practicing.
In the same room.
Usually in a different room, but I'm
sure if she could she would love to
play it in the same room at the
same time
So what
do you get out
of playing music?
I enjoy that it
brings joy to
other people and it's
a really nice way to be
involved with your community and
also share what you enjoy with
others, which is
part of what I like most about
violin.
Do you enjoy, because
you've soloed with a number
of different orchestras, do
you enjoy being out
in front and being the soloist,
or do you also
enjoy performing as part of
a group?
I enjoy both.
I think they both bring
different advantages and
I think they're both really great
ways of working with other people.
What groups have you performed
with?
Um, I've played with the
Midwest.
Midwest Young Artists
Orchestras, Numerous
Times, and then the
Portland Youth Philharmonic
in Portland,
Oregon, this past year.
So were you like a visiting
soloist with Portland?
Yes.
Yes, we were on a tour
that combined the Midwest
Young Artists Symphony Orchestra
with the Portland
Youth Philharmonic and then
we also visited Seattle and
Vancouver, so we were kind of
doing a side-by-side concert
with all three of them.
How long?
So the tour was about a week long.
What do you find is
the hardest part of playing the
violin, like intonation
or tone or
mechanics or technical?
I think bringing out the musicality
and really making it so that
the audience feels what you
are trying to show everyone
is one of the most challenging
but most enjoyable parts
of playing violin.
Enjoyable in what way.
I think when you accomplish
that, it is
so special and it's
such a great feeling when you can
portray what you want
to the audience.
Who is your current instructor
for violin?
My violin teacher is
Professor Janet Sung at
DePaul University.
And how long have you been studying
with her?
Um, I've
been studying with her for
about six years.
I started with her in
sixth grade.
And what kinds of things does
she help you with?
Um, a lot of musicality,
making it so that...
You have a story that you
are sharing with the audience for
each piece of music.
What is it that you like most about
her as an instructor?
Oh, everything.
I enjoy how
she teaches, but also...
Um...
Do you think of her as a friend,
in addition to a teacher?
Not necessarily a friend,
she is a person I admire
a lot.
I really enjoy listening to
her performances as well.
I think she is an amazing performer
and also a teacher, which
I think is
super valuable.
How did you hear about her, how did
you find out?
I met her at a
master class that my
youth orchestra program Midwestern
Artists was hosting.
So I got to play for her in
the master class and then
I went to a summer camp that
she was teaching at in Ohio.
And so you
take a trip down to Chicago
every week.
Yes.
Do you drive or do your parents
generally drive?
My dad drives.
I would think it's a little scary
to be driving on the highway
for such a long time.
Mm-mm.
What are your
favorite styles of music?
I mean obviously you like classical
music, but are there any other
types of music that you like
listening to or performing?
Um, I would
say my favorite style of
music to listen to is classical
music.
Um, there's a lot of different types
of classical music,
like orchestral works and
solo music.
And that is generally what I enjoy
listening to.
Now, the piece that you're going
to be performing, can you tell us
what it is and, you know,
the composer's name and why
you're choosing to play that
one?
I will be performing the
Prokofiev Violin
Controde No. 1, the first
movement. I chose
this piece of music
because...
I really enjoyed listening to it
and I think each
part of the movement has
such a different character and
I really wanted to be able to bring
together the sections or
the different characters of the
section in a way that
makes a story.
Is the first movement, your favorite
movement of that piece.
How long have you been working
on that?
Oh, um, that's
a good question.
Um, I believe I started it
sometime in July, so
a few months.
And what kinds of things
does Professor Sung
help you with for
that music?
A lot of stylistic
things, and making sure
that I'm able to
make the character sound as
much as that character as
I want it to, and make sure that
that character really comes across
to the audience.
What made you choose
the Prokofiev?
I mean, there are all these other
well-known
works, violin,
Sibelius, Mendelssohn,
Brahms.
What made choose the prokofie?
It's a bit more of a
modern piece, which is something
that I enjoy performing or
working on and learning.
I also think it just sounds so cool.
In what way?
Well, the beginning
is a very dreamy
character, almost like it's up in
the clouds, and then when you
keep moving forward, it becomes
a bit more like an
evil little elf that's
maybe doing something that it
shouldn't be doing, and it keeps
moving on, and there's
so many different characters that
each section has, and the ending
is again like it is the clouds.
I enjoy tying all of that together
to make a story.
What do you find different about
the 20th century pieces
from, say, more classical?
Um...
Think it has very different
harmonies.
You can also hear kind of the
issues in the world that were going
on in the
world during that time through
the music.
So I think it's interesting trying
to portray some of that as well.
Who or what do you feel has been
the biggest influence on you
as a musician?
I would say my teacher,
Professor Sang, has been one of
the biggest influences on me.
Are there any violin
performers that you particularly
like listening to?
I enjoy listening
to
Augustin
Hadlich, James
Ennis,
Isaac Perlman,
a lot of different people.
Um.
Who would you say is your favorite
composer and
why?
Oh, um,
it's so hard to pick.
If you've got a bunch of them, go
ahead and list your favorites.
I would say whoever's
work that I am working on at that
moment tends to be my favorite.
Just because when I
work on that piece I learn so much
about each composer so
then It makes me.
I guess feel a connection to
their music.
Where did you first hear
the Prokofiev piece
that you're gonna be playing?
Or what made you kind
of decide to go for that one?
Have you been wanting to
perform that for a while?
Um, I think I've been
wanting to perform
My teacher introduced me
to the idea of
playing the Prokofiev, but
when I first listened to it
with the intention of
possibly studying it,
I kind of felt connected to it
immediately more than
I would, well, I tend to
feel when I listen to a
piece of music.
Very good point.
What is...
Let's talk about some other
interests. What other interests do
you have besides
music?
I enjoy baking,
reading, spending time with my
family, especially my little sister.
I also enjoy studying,
which might not be very
common, but...
Really enjoy school outside
of.
What made you choose Wisconsin
Virtual Academy, or what
do you like most about that?
I enjoy that it gives me more
of a flexible schedule so
I'm really able to practice
violin when I
want to and as much as
I can and then I
can do my schoolwork at a time
where it's a little bit more
convenient for me especially with
all the traveling to Chicago and
other places that we do for music.
How long have you been attending?
Is it all four years of high school
that you did through Virtual
Academy?
Yes, I started
in my freshman year of high school.
Was that about the same time?
Well, that was in, we were in COVID
by then, right?
I would say it was
after COVID.
I went back to
regular school
for eighth grade and then I
actually really enjoyed how school
was during COVID, so I kind
of wanted to go back to that for
high school.
Do you have, in
addition to baking, do you have any
other hobbies that you enjoy
or any sports that you
take part in?
Unfortunately sports are not
really my thing but I enjoy
a lot of different types of arts
like coloring,
drawing, I
enjoy doing crafts
with my sister but
also reading is
one of my hobbies.
What types of
books do you read?
I really enjoy reading books about
violin and how to practice
violin.
How do you like to spend your free
time?
Um...
Usually my free time is spent
with my family,
so sometimes we'll
all bake together or
we'll go out to cafes
or other places and
spend time together, which
is...
Do you go on vacations
typically as a family?
Um...
We go to Door County often.
It's a really beautiful place, so
we usually go for a long weekend,
usually during Thanksgiving
break.
And then you get to Chicago every
week, right? Yes.
What are your plans for after
high school? Because you're a senior
now. Yes.
What are you planning to do next
year and down the road?
I'm planning to go to college,
hopefully a music conservatory
for violin performance,
or I'm also
interested in majoring in psychology
or sociology.
Do you have any specific colleges
in mind?
Um,
Juilliard School of Music?
How many other
competitions have you entered?
Oh, a lot.
Too many to count.
Always on violin or
any on piano.
I'm always on violin for
me, but I've been part
of a few chamber groups that
have also competed.
Were those chamber groups with
the Midwest Youth Symphony?
They were with the Midwest Young
Artists.
What made you decide to enter the
bowls competition?
I've competed every year since
I was young.
I used to compete in the junior
division as well.
So it's kind of a tradition to
compete.
So how did you feel this
year when you were
selected as one of the finalists?
I think it was very exciting to
have this opportunity to play
with Madison Symphony Orchestra.
So you played with the orchestra
then when you were in the
youth.
No, I did not, not
with Madison Symphony.
Oh, okay,
so this will be your first time
performing with the Madison
Symphony?
What are you looking forward to with
that?
I think it will be very exciting
to work with
a different orchestra and
a new conductor and see how
I can collaborate with
everyone to make something
beautiful.
What does it feel like,
or what are you thinking about when
you set foot on that stage,
when you step up onto the stage to
perform with an orchestra?
Um, I think I mainly
think about how I can
enjoy this experience and
how I can make everyone else enjoy
it as well.
Are you ever nervous
when you step up on stage?
A little bit, but I think it's very
exciting and that kind of
overpowers the nervousness.
But you're used to performing in
front of crowds.
Um...
I know you also volunteer
at the Madison Children's
Museum.
How long have you done that and how
often do you work there?
I've started volunteering
this past school
year.
I try to go every
week when I can, but it
ends up being every other week or
every few weeks sometimes.
Why did you
pick the Madison Children's Museum?
I wanted to give back
to the place that
was my favorite place
to play out when I was younger.
So we actually started going there
when it first opened at the new
location.
So I've gone there
for many years in a
way.
Can you just say,
I started going to the
Madison Children's Museum when
it first opened or something?
Okay.
Okay, yeah.
I started going to the Madison
Children's Museum when
they first opened at the
new location.
And what was it that
you liked so much about going
there?
I really liked the art studio.
I got to make something really
cool every time that I went
there, but I also enjoyed
the little water areas that
there were.
Is that what you enjoy doing then,
is helping other kids
create things?
Yes, that is my favorite place to
be. I really enjoy seeing
the different creative things that
the little kids are making and
I love helping them
make what they are trying
to envision.
Oh, you mentioned that you really
like to bake.
Yes.
What kinds of things do you like
baking?
Mainly cookies.
Cookies are my favorite,
but occasionally cakes as
well.
How long have you liked baking?
Um, I really
enjoyed it when I was younger as
well. I would help my mom make
cakes and cookies, so
that is one of my favorite memories.
Do you ever bake by yourself or
is it usually with your mom?
Sometimes I will bake by
myself, but
I prefer doing it with other
people like my mother and my
sister.
Sort of a family.
Yes, it makes it a lot more fun.
What's the best thing that you've
ever made?
Maybe cookies.
What kind of cookies?
I like the classic sugar
cookies.
I just think there's something so
nice about a classic recipe.
Have you ever made chocolate chip?
I'm sure that I have.
My favorite is just the sugar
cookies.
Have you ever completely blown it
and not gotten it right and
something bad comes up?
Well, there was a time where
we didn't have any eggs and
I was trying to make, I think it
was brownies.
And I thought, well, what could go
wrong? So I made it without the eggs
and it did not
become very brownie-like.
I just know because my daughter
and I tried baking some cookies
one time and we didn't
get the portions right and
they were mostly sugar,
they just dissolved
in your mouth.
That's right, yeah.
Yeah, I also tried to
make cinnamon rolls once, and
the yeast failed
a little bit, so it did
not rise.
Sometimes those are the most fun
times.
Yeah, yeah,
sometimes.
Memorable.
So I think we're just about done
here.
I wanted to ask one more time
just what,
because music is obviously very
special to you.
And what is it
that makes music
something that you'd love to
make a career out of?
I really enjoy the collaborative
aspect that music has and
also I think it's
such a nice feeling to be able to
play something beautiful that
the audience, the people who are
listening to the music will also
enjoy.
I think that was wonderful.
Oh, yeah, I was gonna say if you're
if you have any more questions go
for I was just gonna remind room
tone
Okay, yeah, if we can just sit here
and not say anything for about 30
seconds.
We'll get that the sound of the room
so we can put that into places
where we need a space.
I do have one more.
What would be your dream career?
I mean looking forward, looking
ahead like ten years from now,
where would you really like to be.
I would like to be doing something
with violin.
I think each type
of musician has its own.
Enjoyable aspects, so
I haven't really decided on
which one that
I want to do most,
but I think I
would look forward to any of
them.
Have you attended any
of the
Bowls competition concerts
in the past?
Yes, I have.
It's been a few years
since COVID, but
I have gone
to a few of
them.
With your family.
This is going to be a
change of pace then,
being up on stage and seeing them
in the audience.
Does that bother you at all, seeing
your parents and your
sister in the audience?
No,
maybe a little a little
bit more nerve-racking
Have you performed in Overture Hall
before?
Um...
I don't think so.
I think this will be my first time.
Where did the
Midwest Youth
Orchestra, where did they
typically perform?
We typically played
at the Pixdager
Hall at
Northwestern University in
Evanston.
Have you performed with the
Milwaukee Symphony?
I'm... Not as a soloist,
but- or-
I've done their side by side
program, which
is where the
high schoolers will sit in as
part of the orchestra.
Yeah, I think I think we're
set. You did fantastic.
Thank you.
Great. Yeah.
Wonderful. Looks great.
OK, so I'm going to just cut.
Yep. Whenever you're ready, you can
start.
Now do you want the
temperature turned down?
Yeah, I was gonna say it.
The air turned off.
Oh, yeah, there you go.
Let me see.
Yeah, my daughter
was a freshman.
Yeah, whenever you're ready, yeah.
I'm just kinda following your lead,
so.
And you'll see me move her out a
bunch, so.
You
Cool. Is there another section of
the piece you want to try out?
It doesn't always have to be like
the same one every single time, but
we'll definitely come back to that
one again, just
for variety sake.
And it doesn't have to be perfect,
like, if you make a mistake.
We'll always cut it out.
Maybe some autotune.
Yeah.
There you go.
That's great.
That's what a mile pipe argue.
Your hand over cramp.
No, it's just very cool.
Oh, yeah.
Then it happens.
I feel like you can't
fly out of those fingers as much.
Okay, ready.
Okay, same place.
Alright, we'll just do it one more
time.
I'm just going to try a different
style shot.
Oh, it's the chandelier shadow.
Okay. Just want to make sure I
wasn't getting the camera shadow.
I don't know, it is camera shadow,
isn't it?
Is it my shadow? Yeah, it's camera
shadow. OK.
Yeah, I don't know if there's any
way to turn that off.
Oh yeah.
Cool. Do you mind trying the other?
Cool? Yeah, I think I got it.
That was a cool shot.
You
Can't you go to school together with
your sister?
No,
because only middle school,
up to middle schoolers can be
there unless people
are volunteering to be a
teacher,
to help.
Mmmmmmmmmmmm
Did you know what?
Are we home?
No, we took the car.
Oh, you took the...
But we still can walk
there, because it's
close to our house.
What are you going to do tomorrow
now that you have the day off?
I have no idea!
So you're gonna do some baking now.
We're making cup...
I mean, we're making...
Cupcakes.
That's what you've got on your
apron.
I was trying to say cocaine.
Yeah? Okay.
We have new Valentine's
sprinkles.
Thank you.
I need to wash it.
I have a secret.
Sugar.
I polish it mostly
once a week and every day.
This is my favorite.
They're from my two fairies.
We know they're two fairys.
I see.
You got those when you lost your
teeth?
I lost 16 but I
only had to wait for it.
But one of them I swallowed.
Oh, no.
I wrote a letter to the
Tooth Fairy that I saw on my
Toothbrushy snow baby.
Okay Charlotte, come here.
Yay!
Okay. Bye!
Fine. Okay.
So we're gonna put the butter.
And now we're going to open it.
Good job.
Okay, so we'll put that in.
Hee hee hee.
So we're going to mix that again,
and then...
So we need around 70 grams
of shirt.
What are you doing?
So I waited until it goes to 70.
So we're going to put that on, and
then we're going to make it clear
up.
Boarding.
It's okay if it's a little over 70.
Sixty-five, sixty-six.
Okay, just put a little more in.
It's okay if it's a little over
seventy.
Sixty one.
Sand it.
I can put that in there.
Okay, thank you.
I know how to take it off.
Use the spoon to show
them.
Well the butter is sticking a little
bit.
The yellow part.
What do we do with the yellow part?
Well, we're going to mix in the
yellow part
doing a good job.
Now what do I do?
I'm going to do this one.
So I need 200.
200.
Okay, we can't get it
off.
Okay, hold on.
Okay, so we have 115 now,
so I'm going to put that in, and
then we'll just need 75.
Did you put the spoon in there?
Bye.
One hundred and fifty.
Maybe we'll just cut it.
No!
I need to use the same one
I got.
Thank you.
Can I borrow your spoon, please?
Yeah.
Just a little bit.
There's a little piece of something
there.
Just three more.
Oh
Okay, that's good.
All right.
Hee hee
Are they ready for eating?
He he he he!
Probably won't taste very good yet,
huh?
Wait...
Oh, you want to see your sister?
Oh here, let me get a better shot
then.
Wanna come look at it from here?
Okay, I'll make it.
Can you see me?
Oh yeah.
Mommy.
Yes?
He he he.
Don't need it.
He he he he!
I'll let you know that will take a
little bit longer.
Just want to see.
Do you want to look?
All I can see is your face
Why don't you look over here?
Look over here!
It looks yellow.
It does.
Is that because it's under the
light?
I think it's because of the
heavy oak,
or the butter.
Oh, yay!
Are you going to stay for
when we're baking them in the
oven?
Well, maybe a little bit.
Honestly
Yep, I got it.
How long do they have to be?
Um, 10 to 15 minutes.
That's not too long to have to wait.
But I'll just be playing.
So you don't have to work while
they're cooking, huh?
Can you see me?
Oh yeah.
Hehehehehehehehe
I'm actually going to sneak around
this way so I can see what's going
on.
I can't hold them with
my arm.
Mom, I need to let go.
I'll hold you.
Wee.
It smells weird.
Help me!
Who eats the most cookies?
He's a kooky monster when
he was little.
Ah.
Does this look good?
I thought you would eat the most
cooked.
Water travels in a cycle,
yes it does,
water travels in cycle,
it goes
up as a reparation and
force clouds as condensation,
travels down as precipitation,
yes, it does.
Known some science.
Water travels in a cycle,
yes it does.
Water travels and a cycle yes
it does.
It goes up as a reparation of
fluid clasps condensation.
Travel status precipitation,
yes, it does!
What did you learn there?
From science
and social studies at school.
What's precipitation?
It's when
snow,
sleet, hail,
or rain comes
down from the sky.
Got it. Okay.
As precipitation.
So we had a little precipitation
last night, huh?
Yeah, a snow storm!
There's a lot of precipitation on
the ground out there.
Okay.
So now what do you do?
It looks like your mom is doing all
the work.
Yeah, that's
a common thing.
I haven't been.
And condensation is
when the water evaporates
and turns into a gas.
As it cools down in the
sky, it turns back into
a liquid.
And the thing that
heats up the
water to turn into a gaseous
is the sun.
Without the sun, there would be
no precipitation or
the water cycle.
And it would be pretty cold,
wouldn't it?
It's dark.
We wouldn't be able to see anything.
And also we would like,
it would be like we have a drought
for our whole life.
Oh, I'm
getting thirsty.
EHEHEHEH
Are they cookies yet?
We're going to make them into shapes
now.
What shapes are you going to make?
No idea.
Watch this.
When do you put the sprinkles on?
Oh!
Ice cream!
When you are using cookie cutters,
this part is extra thick so it
doesn't hurt your hand.
So make sure that this part on the
top.
Okay, would you like to work on this
one and I will work on the other
one?
Mm-hmm.
Wait.
Hmm?
Oh, no!
Okay, so.
I don't know.
Can we borrow that, please?
Would you like to put on some
sprinkles? Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Sprinkles, sprinkles, Sprinkles.
Can I open it for you?
No, I know.
Opening, that's pretty cool!
No.
Mm-hmm.
Mommy!
They broke.
Oh, that's okay.
They'll taste the same.
Yeah, because the taste is the
important part.
Heart con,
sprinkle ice cream.
Did you just eat one?
Mm-hmm.
Don't eat the door.
I just ate sprinkles.
Done.
Okay.
I like it.
So.
So I'm gonna roll out the dough,
okay? Uh-huh.
And then I can make more.
Let's go.
Do you think your sister would like
a sprinkle?
Here you go, Mommy.
Thank you.
Do you want a sprinkle?
Thank you.
I think
they're
vanilla.
Valentine's Day.
I think
that's what it says.
Sprinkles are kind of sprinkled
flavored.
It's made out of sugar.
Could you try one?
It was so good.
Ooh, there's another white
one, and another.
I don't know. Yeah.
I think there's more red hearts than
white hearts.
Look how many red hearts there
are. Yeah.
I tried to use up most
of them.
They're very cute.
My phone back in
it.
Um, okay.
Let me move this one over here.
How about you can flatten this one,
and I'll work on this one.
What would you like to use?
It's the cinnamon.
Ah, okay.
What's the no man?
What is that?
The last bit of food bacon off.
Do I
have anything else on?
Sorry.
That's okay.
Jack, can you move the camera?
You
I made a
new mask but I didn't put
the yard on it but I can show you.
Where did Charlie go?
I don't know.
We'll talk to you when we get out of the way for
the camera.
HIPPOP!
Water.
Oh, no, I'm fine.
Thank you, thank you.
It looks like I'm a little
puppet.
Wow!
This one even has a little sticker.
Do they have names?
That's a lot of stickers.
I got them prepped for
free at shops!
And I've also created,
see I have boxes under
here that I can.
Do you like unicorns?
I see a unicorn hanging right
there!
Good boy.
OK.
The pickles are just so
yummy because
they're made out of sugar.
I think everybody loves sprinkles.
No one does it
like sprinkles, but
somehow one of my friends at
school told me that they
don't like chocolate or
marshmallows.
Well, some people don't.
Some people like carrots.
What's your favorite food?
Cookies?
Ice cream.
Ice cream with sprinkles and
a candy cane and cherry on
top.
Thank you.
Yeah, oh yeah, oh, yeah.
That's better.
Mm-hmm.
It's sticking!
Bye, boy!
It's like a little gentle jump!
Come on you, get out of there.
Mm.
Can you hear me now?
Mm, put it down.
Put it down!
A burger?
Mm-hmm.
Um, should we
put that in first?
Yeah.
I think we can test a
couple more.
So we say something...
It's just that it's not this.
It's evaporation!
Yes.
Oh
Can you say combustion?
Ready. I can.
Let's come push, Jed.
Combustion
Evaporating to the
sky, it's going to
form a cloud.
Bye bye.
And then what will the cloud do?
Precipitate!
Water travels in a cycle,
yes it does,
water travels in cycle yes
it does.
It goes up as evaporation and
first class is condensation,
travel starts with precipitation,
yes, it does.
Now I'm learning something today.
Would you like to trade?
I hope at least one take of that
ends up in the...
Trey.
Hehehehehehehehe!
Okay, so this is the moment I'm
going to have to...
Do you want to sprinkle anything?
Yes!
Let's sprinkle that.
Oh, there you go.
Form a big, a
small, fluffy cloud.
The end.
See?
You can do more.
Yay!
A precipitated cat.
Ocean part.
Meow.
And, uh...
Nice, fluffy,
pink cloud.
No, no, no.
Whatever we see, we must not
interfere.
The artist at work.
Let's use our fingers.
Winyo, Winyoo, Wonyo,
What did you film for
Andre's
personal activities?
I wasn't up there,
what kind of things did he do?
Well, he was in jazz band.
That's what we did.
Yeah, that's cool, yeah.
It was a little less entertaining
than this.
All of these?
They were pretty cool.
That's pretty good.
Active child,
yeah!
Did you do anything more at his
home? We, I mean, him practicing
and stuff like that, yeah.
You can
eat after you're done.
You have to have a good personality
to be a jazz band teacher.
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
Yeah, he was.
He brought all these donuts for the
kids, too, so that you could tell
that they had a nice report, because
it's early in the morning, so I
think that's kind of the bribe to
get them there.
Shooting off a sugar.
Ta-da.
Create a day out of doing it, then
blow in a dropper.
Die, die, die.
Do you like?
Can you see me?
I can!
Now you're jealous.
Can I see?
Getting a shot of your handiwork.
I like this one in particular, you
see that one?
Yeah, it's
all splattered up.
Can you go back and show her what
she looked like?
Oh, yeah.
See his nose?
That's good, that's good.
Good job, good job.
Let me see, let me see him!
That's a big nose.
I can't see!
Okay, yeah, okay, look at this.
My, oops, there we go.
Is that you?
See, focus, I can't tell.
Everyone's going to think we need a
lot of circles.
I think Chai knows what he's going
to do.
That takes years of training.
Well, I don't know about that.
It's on.
Let's take this off.
Ready?
,
I wanna play with you.
What is this guy having?
Cougar.
He has honey.
Awesome.
Okay. So here, hang on.
That's it.
I'm going to play with you.
Yep, ready.
Oh
All done!
What
Let's hear it.
For you guys.
Why did the butter sit by the
window?
He didn't see the, wait,
did it say, why did the but-er
butter sit by the windows?
Why?
Because he didn't see the
butter fly.
Hehehehehehehehe
Pretty good.
I also have a joke I made up
on my own.
It's a tree oh yeah there you
go see your face too yeah a little
bit lower there you go
What's it say?
Yum, yum!
Awesome.
OK.
I am
ready.
It's cookie time!
I'm going to cookie time it in five
minutes.
Because they need to cool
down so we can
heat them.
I can help for
you if you hold
there and bring over a little
bit.
I can play with you guys all
your way.
Okay, that is way too...
Awww, what's wrong?
Yeah, so we need to make
some room for my knocking on
footballs.
Look, it's way too big for me.
You can eat them, or you can
eat.
Okay.
Okay. That.
Awesome
Chef gives the sign
I don't want to play that.
I was cleaning up.
Maybe we could move some of them off
the black sheet.
Mind doing eating a little more.
Actually, I really need Charlotte
eating them once she's ready.
We can wait until the- Yeah, okay.
Yeah, okay, okay.
I'm just pooping in there so you can
eat.
You do want her to eat
here or somewhere?
Wherever.
Yeah. That doesn't really matter.
You can do this now.
I was just going to tell you John,
I kind of regret shooting at this
color temperature because there was
a lot more daylight when we started
and now it's got, and I didn't,
I kind felt, well I should probably
stick with it but now it has gotten
a little yellow, but that's okay, I
think we'll be able to bring it back.
There are a lot of them.
Oh
Um.
These are seriously good.
They are, huh?
Do you want to show your,
oh you already ate,
maybe this one?
Maybe show?
Wait, what is his favorite one?
Okay, why don't you show your cat?
You can have this
one.
It's got a lot of sprinkles on
there.
You like lots of sprinkles.
You don't like them.
No, I will definitely eat it.
I just have to get a shot of you
eating it first, then I'm gonna eat
the rest of them.
Eat the rest of them. Let's eat a cookie together.
Yeah. I'll eat this one.
Thank you.
What do you think? How's it taste?
Oh
Want one?
Yes, now I can have one.
I got a good shot of you.
Best cookies ever.
Yeah!
You have two?
Two, two, two.
Look, I made my sandwich!
Which tasted better, the heart or
the cat?
He ate the cat.
It was great.
I think the cat would taste better.
No
I'm glad you like them.
You can have more!
Yeah, I'll definitely.
We'll do one more.
This one was.
I'll show you more after I
eat my cookie.
Maybe next.
You can try parking
on Thanksgiving.
Ciao.
