This assignment required me to chose an actor/actress and two of their different roles and express this in a Gif. I was familiar with making a Gif as we had done this earlier on in the DS106 course. But first I had to chose which actress/actor to capture their acting roles. After watching The Hunger…

Movie Mashup  If I were to have a binge day watching Disney Films, which I do quite regularly despite being 19, Finding Nemo would always be top of my pile. It scares me to think that it has been out 13 years and in those years i’ve watched this film more times than i’d like to…

5 Second Film This assignment made me laugh because with films these days, I think you can accurately describe the plot in 5 seconds. I stumbled upon this assignment on one of the most ridiculous, (in my opinion), money making days of the year- Valentines Day. Being the forever single and happy type of girl…

I seriously would consider myself as a cereal addict, i love it, at any time of the day. It’s just the perfect snack. Anyway, when I saw this assignment, Create your own cereal box cover, I knew I had to do it. When I went to America last summer I was obviously exposed to all…

‘Colour splash is a technique to emphasise details- you remove all colour from a photo, and then restore original colour to a single object, e.g. a green apple on a table.’ I chose this assignment because I felt I could put my Photoshop skills to proper use. I think a black and white photo is…

Bucket List  ‘History will be kind to me, for I intend to write it.’ Winston Churchill I have been bought up to believe that your life is what you make of it. And I intend to continue to push myself, to achieve the goals I want to. So when I saw this visual assignment I knew…

This assignment is comprised of 3 random facts that will construct an album cover. I followed the instructions which lead me to three different websites in which I chose first, the bands name, album name and cover photo. I found this really intriguing, following the instructions and seeing what I ended up with. So once…

Daily create #1

Daily create #1 This daily create caught my attention because I really enjoy reading poetry, so I thought I could have a little go at writing 6 lines. It got me thinking really what is the purpose to life? Like genuinely why are we here? So I just did this really quickly while it was fresh…

For Unit 4 our assignment is too create a sound story using sound effects from the website Freesounds. This is our first audio assignment so it was good to use different skills from my media production degree. I chose the horror/thriller genre because that is my favourite type of film, the suspense just really excites…

In addition to this unit’s daily creates we have been tasked with making a Five Card Flickr Story. This creative tool selects five photos at random in which you have to make a story of the pictures. I found this really enjoyable because I love photography and I really liked the photos I got. If…

The structure of a story may seem a complicated concept but Kurt Vonnegut does a pretty good job of explaining it. For this unit we have been presented with a video for Vonnegut in which he discusses stories and their structure. I found watching the video more of a recap then new information as in…

      In this assignment we have been asked to create an animated gif from our favourite film. It didn’t take me long to come to the conclusion that The Parent Trap is my all time fav film. It reminds me of my childhood so much, I must have watched it about a thousand…

Daily create #1 Since becoming a student I feel a very important part of surviving is learning the art of napping. Before uni I was not the type of ‘sleep in the day’ kind of girl, but oh boy have I changed!! I have mastered and perfected the art of the ‘tactical nap’. So if…

SMP. What is it? To me… Social media is all the different platforms in which we communicate in the online world. It connects people in a way in which traditional ways couldn’t, through mutual friends and groups. I personally think that we now live in social media, I think the boundaries between reality and the online…

Daily create #1 When I saw this DC I instantly thought about using an image from the @medievalreactions twitter page as they have so many hilarious photos. I found this picture and thought immediately that I could use it to juxtapose old and new. It’s no lie that everyone wanted a selfie stick when they…
