This assignment was a lot of fun. I liked how personal it was.
The list I got was:
Make a photo of something upside down that is never seen that way. Your most prized possession. Make a photo containing or suggesting fire and/or smoke Take a photo of two things…
For my superhero photography analysis, I went straight to the CW’s Supergirl. Flawed writing aside, the show is visually striking, and includes many classic superhero shots.
One of them is the image below.
A classic shot, this image shows Kara ripping away her street clothes to reveal her Supergirl costume …
For my other Visual Assignment, I decided to do “Poetry Art”. I liked the idea of doing a visual assignment that wasn’t photography, and I love poetry (even though I can’t really write it).
My poem poster ended up as:
I picked Langston Hughes’ “Harlem” because it’s one of my …
I had to connect one of my visual assignments to the character I created. I wasn’t sure how I was going to do that, considering the fact that she’s not real and I can’t photograph her, but then I happened across the “What’s in your bag” assignment. I realized I …
For my superhero photography assignment, I decided to go with “The Life of a Superhero”, mainly because the only other option was the assignment I created. I figured I could handle this using a photo editor and a grocery store stock photo.

I have …

This week’s work felt somewhat overwhelming, but I think that’s because A) writing feels like more work than just about anything else and B) I wanted to make sure the content I was writing was good enough not to embarrass me, especially because …
I came to a very interesting realization when I applied the Very First Superman Cartoon to Vonnegut’s The Shape of Stories. The cartoon fit the first model almost perfectly… if you consider Lois Lane to be the main character.
To make this parallel work, I’m excluding the introduction where they …
Darla has the annoying little sister thing down to a science. It helps that her older counterpart, Eloise, is so easy to rile up. Stealing her clothes and bugging her friends would’ve been bad enough, but when you factor in that since they were kids Darla could read Ellie’s mind…it’s …
For my second writing assignment, I picked the “Haiku About You”. It has been a very long time since I tried my hand at poetry, but I remembered liking it, and the haiku format is pretty forgiving.
