From my first digital camera, a pink rhinestone camcorder to my current Canon Rebel T5-I, I’ve loved photography for the past 12 years or so. I have never been great at taking photos, but I’d like to think I’m okay. I have broken my fair share of cameras and definitely didn’t get what I should’ve … Continue reading "Photography Past, Present, and Personal"

September 15, 2017

I'm guilty of not being too invested in this class until this week, but I must say that the assignments for this week were fairly interesting and fun to do. I enjoyed how we focused on the idea of a Superhero, and it allowed me to think more about the heroes that we admire, as well as what actually makes a hero.

Honestly, I'm interested to see where we take the idea of a hero from here on out. I can't stop at just an introduction for my hero after all, I need to make the entire story from start to finish, Prequel and Sequel included!

Here's all my work for the week:
