In this oral presentation we are going to talk about California State, in particular, Los Angeles and San Francisco, futhermore, The Oscars and Hollywood.

Slide 3:
Well…we’ll show you a North American’s map because you don’t get lost. It seems an easy thing to understand but...it’s wrong, because in USA there’re a lot of states, and because of that, there’re soo many cities, districts, etc.

Slide 5:
In the fifth slide, we’re going to talk about the history of Hollywood, interesting things (precisely: the Oscars and the best films in 2007.)
Hollywood is a district in Los Angeles, California, situated west-northwest of Downtown, Los Angeles. "Hollywood" is often used as a
metonym for the cinema of the United States. It’s a famous people’s city. Why is Hollywood important? Well… Hollywood’s important because in the twenty century New York and New Jersey stared their films in Hollywood because there there were longer days. Moreover, they didn’t have electricity so, as a consequence they needed natural light, and for that, Hollywood was the best option to go.

Slide 6:
Hollywood places are:

Do you remember the Academy Awards (The Oscars)? Before, Marina told you about that and now we’re going to give you more information. Popularly known as the Oscars, they are presented annually to recognize excellence of professionals in the
film industry, including directors, actors, and writers.
We have chosen few important films in 2007, like…

o I’m a legend


Slide 10:
We absolutely loved “I’m a legend”! It’s a really good film.
mmmm.. What more… the main character is Will Smith, who has won two Oscars: the best actor in “The pursuit of happyness” (en busca de la felicidad) and “Ali”. Do you remember “The fresh prince of Bel-Air” or el principe de Bel-Air in Spanish?
This serie has been very well-knowm around the world. Will Smith was also the main character of that serie. He performed a good character and besides he has been nominated the best character of “The fresh prince of Bel-Air.”


Slide 11:
I'm a legend trailer.

Slide 12:
To finish, we’d like to say something about Chad Michael Murray, because in our opinion he’s the best actor. Nowadays, he is rather valued because he’s good-looking, attractive, sexy, handsome, smart, good actor, intelligent and… don’t forget he’s really muscular! =) well… you can see him in the photo!
So… and for us he’s our platonic love now and ever.
· A little bit about his life is that he was born in
Buffalo, New York in 1981
· In 1999 he went to Hollywood because some brand names (for example:
Sketchers, TommyHilfiger and Gucci
) invited him to be a model.
