    Advice from one Joker to Another

    by
    Mashup Assignments: Photo Mash This mashup assignment said to create an image of 2 actors from different movies and place them into the same scene together. I decided to do Heath Ledger as the Joker in the Dark Knight and Jared Leto as the Joker in Suicide Squad. I image Ledger coming to visit Leto and giving him advice on how to be a better Joker while he is confined in the asylum. Or maybe the two are just catching up...

    Google knows best

    by
    For one of my Assignment banks I choose to do Google Draw Something This assignment takes you to: https://quickdraw.withgoogle.com/ I have never seen this website before but it was really neat! It gives you something to draw and 20 seconds to draw it to see if Google can guess it correctly. I am not the best drawing person out there but Google was guessing almost everyone of mine before I would even finish the drawing. I noticed at the end it will...

Eventually I plan on visiting Colombia and Finland where my mother and father claim descent, respectfully. 2. Finish all the movies on my Watch List (it totals 103) I made this a while ago, not for …

    Weekly Summary #1

    by
    This first week, I learned that I really had nothing to fear. This is a common theme in the comic book of my life. I procrastinate. I avoid. I make excuses. When inevitably, whanever I finally face the terrible foe, I find it much smaller than the monster I had created in my head.  Given …

    Superheroes

    by
    I’ve always loved superheroes.  They had powers, secret identities, and the ability to vanquish foes and save the world.  My sister and I grew up pretending to have powers, playing out silly melodramas in the park across our house (our neighbors loved us).  Unfortunately, I […]

    Super Me!

    by
    So, it may have taken me a while to realize I was a super hero; and I may still be discovery my powers, but knowing I am unstoppable has been worth the wait! I have a keen sense for picking empty rows on cross country flights. And the wing-span of an Icelandic floss (waterfall) whenever …

    Week 1 Reflection

    by
    This week was exactly like I had expected it would be! I can’t make different forms of media without setting up everything first. I knew coming into this class that it was going to be a lot of work but I think it will be very interesting. Seeing the Week 1 Assignment freaked me out a bit but I knew that this would be a rewarding class where I will learn different forms of media story telling. I did have...

    Well, here we are, at the end of week one.  My Twitter, Youtube, SoundCloud and Flickr are all up and accessible.  My introductions are available for each.
