Week 5: Busy Little Gergy

Yes, a busy little Gerg am I.  I’ve got some more Daily Creates and some more Design Assignments, just like I promised.  I’m a man of my word.  You’re anxious, I can tell.  So let’s get started.

Daily Create 30 – The Place of Losing

I should have posted this one a while ago, but, to be perfectly honest, I forgot I even took this picture.  The assignment was to take a picture of a place you lose things in your house.

Lots of books.  Comic boxes.  Sword rack.  Stitch, wearing a leopard-print santa hat.  Zim’s house.  Boondock Saints flask.  Statue of Silent Bob.  Animatronic hamster that sings “Kung-Fu Fighting”.  Yup, this must be my bedroom.  Hard to imagine losing stuff in there; it seems to organized.

Daily Create 42 – The Job

Take a picture that represents a current or former job.  Gladly.  Having recently resigned from my soul-crushing call center job, I turn my attention to a much more fulfilling (albeit less lucrative) job:

Certificates

I’m pretty impressive on paper.

 

Design Assignments!

Pop Culture Gif;

Photobucket

This was the easiest.  Downloaded the clip from youtube using keepvid, then trimed it down with Roxio Creator and plugged the result into Adobe Media Encoder and bingo! Gif.  (Adobe CS5.1 makes my life so much easier)

 

Messing with the MacGuffin

DaVinciMacGuffinThis was a bit slapdash, honestly.  It may be hard to read.  After opening titles, we have Tom Hanks, as Robert Langdon, running toward the crime scene, noting a message in blood.  Then, the message by the body reads “It’s downstairs.”  Finally, Langdon kneels by the pyramid at the Louvre under which the Holy Grail is burried, noting “That was easier than I thought.”

Is that it?  I think that’s it, for the time being.
