This week was really interesting because the work that we had to do was set up our groups and the radio shows. I think it is great that we have two weeks to work. This allows us to be able to focus on what we want to do and then have time to really focus … Continue reading "Week 6"

I don’t know what to write here that I didn’t write in my other post. What I will do for this post is write an advertisement for the show. The Internet Gene. The newest in technology that always to have access to the internet with just a thought. As you know, there are people out … Continue reading "Radio Show Design Project"

So far our radio show is going very well. It started out rocky because we had to figure out how to communicate. We figure the best way would be to use a google doc. This way we can get all our ideas in one place. Google docs also give us the ability to comment and add to … Continue reading "Radio Show Progress"

This week was really fun. Once I was able to figure out how to get things to work, the projects went smoothly. I think the hardest part was figuring out how to get the program to work and getting the right program. I hope there is another design week in the semester. Here is my … Continue reading "Week 5"

Four images. One movie. Can you guess which movie it is? This might be hard so here is a hint: It’s an older children’s movie.

I used a quote and scene from Scott Pilgrim vs the World. I loved this movie when I was in high school and it had so many memorable quotes so I thought it would be perfect for this. The picture is from the scene where they first meet. The quote is after the first ex shows … Continue reading "Favorite Movie Quote"

I decided to make a banner for one of my favorite superheros, Wonder Woman. I found that photo of her and I liked it because it was an action shot of her. I then added in her logo and some stars.

I decided to make a t-shirt for one of my favorite drag queens on Rupaul’s All Stars. Her name is Tatianna and here catchphrase is thank you. I feel like the shirt explains itself.  

For this assignment I decided to make a minimalist poster for one of my favorite TV shows, Avatar the Last Airbender. To make this poster I took the main title logo and used the main character’s signature tattoo and glowing eyes and layered them over a background. I used an orange background because that is … Continue reading "Minimalist TV/Movie Poster"

The first chapter we had to read was all about how people only look at the outcome and not the process. I’ve been thinking about this a lot lately mostly when working on an art project. Most people only care about what the piece will look like when it is done but the final outcome … Continue reading "Show your work again"

When looking through the book all I could think was how impressive it was. The level of impressiveness is even greater when you realize this was all done because the computer age of graphic design. Now a days we can just upload an image and recreate it without ever leaving our houses. To think that … Continue reading "The Vignelli Canon"

Audio week was ruff. I had a lot of difficulty figuring out how to crop audio and make it work for me so I didn’t get a lot done this week. I’ll keep working on it but I don’t have a lot of finished work for this week unfortunately. Think about Audio Storytelling http://bobbybobbles.com/uncategorized/audio-in-media/ Listen … Continue reading "Week 4"

Audio in media is very important. Music has a way of bring out emotions in people with a single note. Now if you pair that power with a powerful scene on T.V. it can be really impactful. But not all background music has the intent to make something impactful. Some times they just try to … Continue reading "Audio in Media"

Week 3 was very fun but also difficult. I started very late this week because I got overwhelmed with all the work, because of that my work suffered. Now that I have stated that, I had a lot of fun this week. I grew as a photographer and got to take some good photos. It … Continue reading "Week 3"

I wouldn’t say I’m a photographer. The extent of my camera use it so take photos and things I think are funny or selfies. I’ve never thought about how light effects a photo or how an angle can change the photo. The only times that I have seriously thought about how to take a photo … Continue reading "Becoming a better Photographer"

For this assignment I was to recreate a famous movie scene. I decided to go with the shower scene from psycho for a couple of reasons. I wanted to use a black and white movie so i could play with shadows when taking the photo. I feel like this scene is so classic that most … Continue reading "Recreate A Famous Movie Scene"

For this assignment I took a close up photo of something. Can you guess what it is? https://www.flickr.com/photos/146646806@N07/29723605205/in/dateposted-public/

For this assignment I couldn’t take a self with my dog because she hates to be picked up but I did the next best thing, I held her as she tried to escape my love. I had my friend take several photos but this is the best one.

Here we are at week two and I still feel like I’m trying to get into the swing of things. Normally I would try to talk about which assignments I found easy this week and then the ones that were challenging but instead, I want to talk about one assignment for both. I want to … Continue reading "Week 2 update"

Here is the mighty crest of the O’Donnell family. The bright colors represent our explosive personality. The cigar is to show that we are gamblers. The Cheetah represents what we are at heart, cheats. Finally our family motto, “If you are going to be a phony be a big one”.

For this assignment I decided to map my family. Unfortunately there are 180 in my family so I went with the next best, The Stark family. You might recognize this dysfunctional family from the hit TV show Game of Thrones. https://kumu.io/Bobbles/stark-f...

For this assignment I decided to create and Xbox avatar of myself. I decided to use my Xbox for this because I play a lot of video games so it feels like a persona i take on almost every day. The one complaint I have about using this medium is that there are almost no … Continue reading "A Digital Reflection Of Myself"

This article made some really good points. The internet has given us a new means of telling stories. Most people use social media and blogs to write about their lives but isn’t telling a story? To us, writing about our own lives might not seem like telling a story but think about the people who … Continue reading "Web 2.0"

A Logic Named Joe by Murry Leinster has a surprisingly accurate prediction for a future we live in now. The short story was written back in the 1946 and yet it predicted life as we know it in 2016. The way Leinster describes his “logic machines” is  eerily similar to how computers are set up and … Continue reading "A Logic Named Joe"

This was the first week of the class and the first time i’ve had an online class. I believe this will be one of the hardest weeks of the class.

Audrey Watters brings up the excellent question in her article, do we own our own domains or are we just customizing space on the internet that doesn’t actually belong to us. I believe having your own domain or space on social media sites is like renting an apartment. You pay to be there, you can … Continue reading "Response to A Domain of One’s Own in a Post-Ownership Society"

1. You don’t have to be a genius. I like this idea because its a good listen to learn. People love to hear what you have to say even if you aren’t an expert in the subject. As long as you can put ideas into your own words, there will be someone who will listen. The … Continue reading "Show Your Work"
