    Listening to & Learning Design

    by
    Scher and Carson both made me question my definition of design. Some of the “designs” that they showed seemed like everyday things to me. When looking at this image from Scher’s talk, I simply saw a t-shirt. Of course, I knew that shirts have to be created, but I had not seen it as a […]

    Talking to the End

    by
    After that frightening intro video (which I will refer to later), I created my character! I loved the archetype I submitted (The Lover, who still sees zombies as humans who can be saved), so I used it to create Winifred Hart. In this post I spent a lot of time trying to show how good she is. […]

    Learning to Listen

    by
    My previous experience with audio has been fairly limited. I listen to B101.5 in my car, and my eleventh grade English teacher played a few podcasts for us in class (after talking about how amazing they are, to which we all rolled our eyes), but other than that, I tend to have some sort of […]

    Vi4eo Week

    by
    Although my temperature is normal, I have been feeling sick all week. The only good part about that is that I was able to finish almost all of the assignments for the week in one day. Before I began working on the assignments, however, I completely redesigned my website. I was able to customize the […]

    The Apocalypse in a Few Words

    by
    I admit that I chose my two short stories based on their length (three pages was more realistic for me than forty), but I ended up finding them both interesting. I began with Finis. Immediately, I found it difficult to determine the relationship amongst all of the characters, but I think that lead to another…

    The Beginning of the End

    by
    I began this week with nothing other than the Daily Create! My flash fiction about zombies being at my 8:00am class instead of students probably wasn’t as creative as I would like looking back, but it was difficult to tell an entire story in the limited characters Twitter allows. Find my story here! I decided to also…

    Apocalypse Reading Reflection

    by
    I found End Day interesting in what they qualified as an apocalypse. I always envisioned it as the end of the world, where all of mankind is destroyed. However, this film defined the “end” as events happening in specific areas, such as tsunamis in New York and the East Coast, nuclear weapons, and meteors. For all…

    Entering the Apocalypse

    by
    I should start off by admitting that this course is not at all what I expected it to be. I imagined the square story boards from my high school programming class, and lectures to listen to once a week about how to, quite literally, create a story. Even though this class is not what I…
