College is a Rodeo: In the Making
The first half of this week was dedicated to shooting videos in order to use them as footage for our show. The show itself is a vlog-style interpretation of how our characters would interact with going to college, so making the videos was about incorporating campus life. After writing my script, I spent a lot … Continue reading College is a Rodeo: In the Making → -

I am not an inventor
For today’s daily create we had to create and invention for Wile E. Coyote. I thought why not do an exploding birthday cake seeing as it is my sister’s birthday tomorrow (I had cake on the mind). Wile E. Coyote can act like he is giving someone a nice gift the BAM you are covered in […] -

New Product From ACME’s New Interdisciplinary Line
Daily Create #1543 Design a New ACME Product. Designer Rob Loukotka created a poster of every product Wile E. Coyote ever bought from them.

Week 10: Whats in that shot?
So, for this week, we turned out attention to video where I realized that despite having seen more movies than almost anyone I know, I know almost nothing about the film making process that guides them or what makes them good. In watching the “Every Frame a Painting” my owns were pried open to recognize […] -

This is my brief analysis for the gas station scene from No Country for Old Men. I’ve used the scene before, creating a gif of the coin toss, but it’s so good that I can’t let it go after one use. I explain a few elements of the scene that stand out to me, but … Continue reading Video Essay -
