    Assignment Rework

    by
    This week I took a look back at some of the assignments I have completed for the course. I knew I wanted to rework a visual assignment, so I figured my visual assignment to make a movie poster silly would be a perfect fit. The original directions for that assignment: “Take an existing movie poster

    Logo-merger, pt. 2

    by
    I chose to re-visit my four-star logo-merger assignment from week 5. I enjoyed this assignment a lot, and I think it will be fun to try to out-do myself. I’ve gotten more experience with photo editing software now, so I think it will be easy for me to go ahead and do better than before. […]

    Revisiting My Work

    by
    For this assignment, we were supposed to go through our past work and recreate one. I chose to do the assignment bank where we had to tell the story of a movie with GIFS. This assignment, at first, caused me quite a bit of trouble. I remember wanting to create a barcode with hundreds of screenshots of a movie from the internet. This time around, I believe this assignment will be a lot easier. I feel like I have really gotten the hold of this class, and I couldn’t be more excited about that fact. This assignment is 5 stars. I do not think it is that difficult, however. There are many 5 star assignments that deserve the ranking, but I do not think this is one of them. I think this assignment is one of the most fun ones I’ve ever done, so I was exited to be able to redo it. Here is my original post: And without further ado, here is my new reworked assignment: This will be Bird Box told in GIFS: The movies starts off with a woman, Malorie, painting in her apartment. Her sister, Jessica, comes to take her to her appointment to check the well-being of her intended baby. They leave and set off for the doctors appointment. Everything seems to be going smoothly. The doctor talks to Malorie about her other options regarding the baby. Malorie shows signs of not wanting the baby, as she will be the only parent. Adoption is regarded as an option, and she is told to think about it. As they are leaving, things start to turn sour. They see a woman slamming her head against a glass pane. They rush to their car, and begin the drive home. However, things start to dramatically decline. People all over the streets are beginning to act crazy. There are constant car accidents, people acting possessed, and terror throughout the community. Then, Jessica starts to act the same way.. Jessica then begins to freak out, and ultimately crash the car. She proceeds to get out of the vehicle, look at her sister, and get hit by an incoming car. Malorie gets out of the car, and people from a nearby house save her and let her in. In this house, many things happen. They are stalled up for quite a while. The owner is very bitter, another pregnant woman enters the house, they leave to get supplies and encounter the thing that is basically possessing people quite a lot. Finally, a man enters the house, who eventually kills all but Malorie, Malories love interest Tom, and two children. One being her own child, and one being the other pregnant woman’s. Malorie then sets off on a journey across a body of water with deathly rapids. It is proven that you have to see a specific thing to be possessed, so blindfolds are a key to survival throughout the movie. It is then revealed that Tom is killed, in order to save Malorie and the two children. After many hard decisions, near death experiences, and struggles, they arrive to their destination. It is a school for the blind, where they are said to be safe. They take off their blindfolds, and begin their new life. This assignment was just as easy as I remembered it being. In order to complete it, all I had to do was type into google “Bird Box GIFS” and pick the ones I wanted to use. Every now and then I would type in a key word after to refine the search. I found almost every GIF I wanted (besides one) and then I just put it in this post and added a synopsis to each. I love being able to create a short synopsis while also bringing some live to it with GIFs.

    This week we were asked to revise one 3, 4, or 5 star assignment we have created in a previous week. Once picked we needed to revise, improve, or remix it in so way shape or form. With that I spent some time looking back at all of the assignments I created. I struggled a […]

    Re-work that back

    by
    One of this week’s assignments tasked us with significantly revising, improving on, or remixing an old assignment we have done. Looking back at all the assignments and posts I have made over the course of the semester so far, I am overall very proud of myself and the work that I have created. However, with […]
