We faced challenges in expressing ourselves through these different and original methods that define us. All of this while learning to use many cool pieces of equipment, including modern applications\/programs such as: DSLR cameras, Tascam audio recorders, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Animate, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Audition, Avid Pro Tools, WordPress, and Google Apps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">SF Moma Art Reflection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">At the beginning of the year, we went on a field trip to the SF Moma museum, which was pretty fun to find new types of art and even connect with new people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">We were asked to find a piece of art which connects with the feeling of AWE. This was a very fun project because I had to be very open-minded to find a project that touched me more than visually but personally. I find a very interesting piece of art by Claes Oldenburg. This was a representation of seasons changing, but this touched me from more perspective than that. As you will see, this project really helped me fully to understand how to express my personal thoughts and feelings by writing a reflection and also creating a video that helped me understand the program Adobe Premier Pro.<br><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p1 Art Reflection DianaH\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/1Ipm2qz-lNI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"523\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM-1024x523.jpg\" alt=\"Photo of video progress in oremier pro\" class=\"wp-image-349\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM-1024x523.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM-768x392.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM-1140x582.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Screenshot-2025-12-12-at-10.38.37-AM.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">This is the production of the video at Premier Pro<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">This was a really important project because we were able to project all our reflections in the Art pieces in differents types of media like Photography, writing and the most important, creating a video in a really huge program that looks pretty complicated like Premier Pro but is really way easier than what i though, this project helped me to express my opinions across this type of visual media, which was really helpful to practice all this types of projects we are now used to and we are able to create whatever we want at Freestyle Academy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Parody Introduction<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"audioButton paused\" id=\"audio1Button\" onClick=\"toggleAudio1()\">\n<h4 class=\"audioButtonPlay\">\u25b6 Test-Pain Parody<\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"audioButtonPause\">\u23f8 Test-Pain Parody<\/h4>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"audioButtonCover\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/DianaH-Parody.jpg\" alt=\"Click here to play\/pause audio\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<audio preload=\"auto\" id=\"audio1\">\n        <source src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Parody-by-DianaH-2025_mp3.mp3\" type=\"audio\/mp3\">\n<\/audio>\n<script src=\"\/Scripts\/audioButton1.js\"><\/script>\n<style>\n@import url(\"\/styles\/audioButton.css\");\n.audioButton {\n\tbackground-color: #8690a2;\n\tborder: 2px #d2c296 solid;\n\tmax-width: 250px;\n           float: left; \/* or right *\/\n           margin-right: 20px; \/* separates from text *\/\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">For our next project we were asked to create lyrics for a verse of whatever song we would like to do. It was pretty fun for everyone because the main goal of all was to be really bad singers and just enjoy our moment to learn how to use Adobe Audition, which is a pretty complicated program, but it was so fun to learn with this main goal. We were able to sing in a small recording room with soundproof rooms so we could sing as badly as we wanted to with professional microphones and professional devices. For the final step we will have to edit our song and create our personal final details.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"433\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-433\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0608.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-432\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0607.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"430\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-430\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0605.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" data-id=\"431\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-431\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606-1140x760.jpg 1140w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_0606.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">the sound proof cain is so fun!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Artist Statement<br>I chose to parody the song &#8220;Chest pain (I love)&#8221; because it is a long and intense song with not that many verses, so it was perfect for this assignment. This is a song that originally represents pain by loving, but I wanted to make it about the pain I feel just before a test that I couldn&#8217;t study for (I pass it if someone is interested in it). I called this song &#8220;Test-pain (I hate).&#8221; It&#8217;s kind of similar, isn&#8217;t it?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">I really enjoyed experiencing what the musicians feel every time they are going to record basic stuff; being in a room with so much professional technology around and being able to sing and scream whatever you want with no feeling of any shame, and in a comfortable space, is kind of like a magic experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">In this assignment we learn to use Adobe Audition, which looks like a really hard program but is actually pretty easy! Well, that&#8217;s the way I feel about it now because this production for the parody helped me a lot to improve my experience in the program, and that&#8217;s something I really appreciate because now I feel able to do almost whatever I want in it, and I still have a lot to learn in here at Freestyle Academy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Parody

blend some photos into the new ones which is what i wanted to learn since the last photoshop practice so this has helped me a lot to improve in mixting photos.<br><mark

I admire the way many people work together for<br>months or years to make a whole movie or series and make it look wonderful.<br>Some of my favorite movies are the How to train your dragon trilogy, every scene<br>looks wonderful and so detail the design of every different dragon from his form,<br>details, even sounds and effects made them way special.<br>I also love every Disney movie and Dreamworks works too. So I wanted to get into<br>the amazing world of animation to be part of some movie or create my own! I<br>wanna learn and be part of any project once I get better.<br>I never thought I could really find a place to study animation until a teacher told<br>me about freestyle. It is the perfect place to finally study what I really want to and<br>to fully grow up in the way I dreamed about. So thank you for giving me this<br>opportunity.<br>More about me!<br>I really like everything related to the stars so i\u2019ll probably used that theme in some<br>projects<br>I also like every ocean or water related so i can even use both!<br>I love to try and learn new things so I hope to learn so much right here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">History of Animation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">As our first assignment we were asked to do an essay summarizing the history of animation so we could understand every important part of this world, also we could see what we were about to do in our classes to progress, also we were asked to explain the description of the 12 principel  of animation to understand then and make smooths and clears animations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-1-1.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of The history of animation_12 principle of animation_Diana Hidalgo (1).\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-4abf506d-fe97-43a7-a1c4-4e273c63a31e\" href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-1-1.pdf\">The history of animation_12 principle of animation_Diana Hidalgo (1)<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-1-1.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-4abf506d-fe97-43a7-a1c4-4e273c63a31e\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div data-wp-interactive=\"core\/file\" class=\"wp-block-file\"><object data-wp-bind--hidden=\"!state.hasPdfPreview\" hidden class=\"wp-block-file__embed\" data=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-3.pdf\" type=\"application\/pdf\" style=\"width:100%;height:600px\" aria-label=\"Embed of The history of animation_12 principle of animation_Diana Hidalgo (3).\"><\/object><a id=\"wp-block-file--media-fb3d4258-6731-4e6a-9f7b-f02282216dee\" href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-3.pdf\">The history of animation_12 principle of animation_Diana Hidalgo (3)<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/The-history-of-animation_12-principle-of-animation_Diana-Hidalgo-3.pdf\" class=\"wp-block-file__button wp-element-button\" download aria-describedby=\"wp-block-file--media-fb3d4258-6731-4e6a-9f7b-f02282216dee\">Download<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\"><strong>Praxinoscope Zoetrope<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">Using our knowledge of the history of animation, we were able to create a zoetrope as our first animation based on 12 aligned drawings which we could put inside a disk that spins a cylinder, so we were able to see more of the animation through the mirror showing one frame per mirror, creating the beautiful movement when spinning it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p1 Zoetrope DianaH\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fp1ZGaqDaos?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Phenakistoscope Wheel<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\">As our second animation we were doing a Phenakistoscope wheel which was a really important step for the animation history which is basically a spinning disk with images\/frames which was reflected into a mirror giving the illusion of movement.

We faced challenges in expressing ourselves through these different and original methods that define us. All of this while learning to use many cool pieces of equipment, including modern applications\/programs such as: DSLR cameras, Tascam audio recorders, Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Animate, Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Audition, Avid Pro Tools, WordPress, and Google Apps. SF Moma Art Reflection At the beginning of the year, we went on a field trip to the SF Moma museum, which was pretty fun to find new types of art and even connect with new people. We were asked to find a piece of art which connects with the feeling of AWE. This was a very fun project because I had to be very open-minded to find a project that touched me more than visually but personally. I find a very interesting piece of art by Claes Oldenburg. This was a representation of seasons changing, but this touched me from more perspective than that. As you will see, this project really helped me fully to understand how to express my personal thoughts and feelings by writing a reflection and also creating a video that helped me understand the program Adobe Premier Pro. This was a really important project because we were able to project all our reflections in the Art pieces in differents types of media like Photography, writing and the most important, creating a video in a really huge program that looks pretty complicated like Premier Pro but is really way easier than what i though, this project helped me to express my opinions across this type of visual media, which was really helpful to practice all this types of projects we are now used to and we are able to create whatever we want at Freestyle Academy. Parody Introduction \u25b6 Test-Pain Parody \u23f8 Test-Pain Parody For our next project we were asked to create lyrics for a verse of whatever song we would like to do. It was pretty fun for everyone because the main goal of all was to be really bad singers and just enjoy our moment to learn how to use Adobe Audition, which is a pretty complicated program, but it was so fun to learn with this main goal. We were able to sing in a small recording room with soundproof rooms so we could sing as badly as we wanted to with professional microphones and professional devices. For the final step we will have to edit our song and create our personal final details. Artist StatementI chose to parody the song &#8220;Chest pain (I love)&#8221; because it is a long and intense song with not that many verses, so it was perfect for this assignment. This is a song that originally represents pain by loving, but I wanted to make it about the pain I feel just before a test that I couldn&#8217;t study for (I pass it if someone is interested in it). I called this song &#8220;Test-pain (I hate).&#8221; It&#8217;s kind of similar, isn&#8217;t it? I really enjoyed experiencing what the musicians feel every time they are going to record basic stuff; being in a room with so much professional technology around and being able to sing and scream whatever you want with no feeling of any shame, and in a comfortable space, is kind of like a magic experience. In this assignment we learn to use Adobe Audition, which looks like a really hard program but is actually pretty easy! Well, that&#8217;s the way I feel about it now because this production for the parody helped me a lot to improve my experience in the program, and that&#8217;s something I really appreciate because now I feel able to do almost whatever I want in it, and I still have a lot to learn in here at Freestyle Academy. Parody Lyrics Test pain Chorus My brain is exploding, my words can\u2019t fall in the paper I don&#8217;t know what to say, so I&#8217;ll submit like this instead With my mistakes, mistakes of horror instead They all said i could pass but again and again I hate I hate I hate, I hate, I hate I hate, I hate, I hate Verse I&#8217;ve been so busy But now that I&#8217;m alone What should I do now? Tell me what What can I do to pass this exam tonight and finally rest fine? It&#8217;s not nice Please, I wanna be really sure that i can pass the year this time Don\u2019t make me feel the only one soon You might not know me, I wish I could always passBut I can&#8217;t just cry Photoshop Blend Mode Editing For our Photoshop Blend Mode assignment we will have to learn to use this program of Adobe Photoshop by using blend modes to change the style of our own photos with different changes to blow up objects or persons in our own photographs and also get used to these abilities of multiply, screen, overlay, and blending that Photoshop offers to us.Also we were ask these questions:What do you value about learning about and creatively using Photoshop Blend Modes?i value a lot that this is a new way to blend some photos into the new ones which is what i wanted to learn since the last photoshop practice so this has helped me a lot to improve in mixting photos.How do you see yourself using your new Photoshop skills with your creative projects?maybe practicing in creating new types of poster or magazines covers for myself or for others to help family members and also help myself to get better with this new skills. DSLR Practice Photos In the DSLR practice sessions we practice using the cameras the academy share with us to learn the property of photography and also learn differents styles of photos to do on our own like the ones we learn to do like Av Mode with shallow and deep depth of field, Tv mode with long exposure night photography, flash practice with portraits in front of backdrops, P-mode with ISO changes and lastly altering White Balance, this was a very challenging practice i can tell because every camera is different and it looks pretty complicated but once i got to know the instructions to the point of doing it naturally is really fun!

I admire the way many people work together formonths or years to make a whole movie or series and make it look wonderful.Some of my favorite movies are the How to train your dragon trilogy, every scenelooks wonderful and so detail the design of every different dragon from his form,details, even sounds and effects made them way special.I also love every Disney movie and Dreamworks works too. So I wanted to get intothe amazing world of animation to be part of some movie or create my own! Iwanna learn and be part of any project once I get better.I never thought I could really find a place to study animation until a teacher toldme about freestyle. It is the perfect place to finally study what I really want to andto fully grow up in the way I dreamed about. So thank you for giving me thisopportunity.More about me!I really like everything related to the stars so i\u2019ll probably used that theme in someprojectsI also like every ocean or water related so i can even use both!I love to try and learn new things so I hope to learn so much right here. History of Animation As our first assignment we were asked to do an essay summarizing the history of animation so we could understand every important part of this world, also we could see what we were about to do in our classes to progress, also we were asked to explain the description of the 12 principel of animation to understand then and make smooths and clears animations. Praxinoscope Zoetrope Using our knowledge of the history of animation, we were able to create a zoetrope as our first animation based on 12 aligned drawings which we could put inside a disk that spins a cylinder, so we were able to see more of the animation through the mirror showing one frame per mirror, creating the beautiful movement when spinning it! Phenakistoscope Wheel As our second animation we were doing a Phenakistoscope wheel which was a really important step for the animation history which is basically a spinning disk with images\/frames which was reflected into a mirror giving the illusion of movement. We had to do at least three animations occurring at the same time that make harmony and smooth visual movement. Title:&nbsp;A little duckling afraid to swim &nbsp;This is a project created in the animation class to learn how to make several animations at the same time. I also learned about the history of animation since it was created for the first time in 1831.. I personally really like ducklings so I wanted to include them in one of my animations. This duckling we can see is jumping over a puddle of water for the first time and discovers its slight fear of it, so it quickly gets out of there. &nbsp;The second animation we can see is a pink flower that, as it grows and closes again, represents how the duckling overcame a fear of being in the water, and upon leaving, it simply returns to its original form, just as the duckling returns to its normal life without overcoming this obstacle.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-15","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=15"}],"version-history":[{"count":38,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":448,"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/15\/revisions\/448"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DianaH\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=15"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
