I think a great idea for a radio show, that would feature our noirs, would be a radio show involving the noir characters in our group. I think the storyline should be about each one of our noir characters living in an apartment complex in downtown New York City. None of our characters would know each other […]

On Wednesday I decided to do my first daily create for the week. My first thought when I saw this picture was how cute is this puppy. I thought the perfect caption for this picture would have to be “all I want to do is take a nap” because the puppy looked so sleepy. I […]

Stanley Kubrick’s movie Killer’s Kiss is shot in black and white color which only adds to this film as a classic Noir. He utilizes a narrative style in the beginning and he also set the tone with his dramatic use of distinct shadows and lighting from one side. He even uses venetian lighting effect within the television set. During […]

I found this weeks assignments fun but very time consuming. I really enjoyed writing up the visuals of storytelling blog post. It was a lot of fun going back and looking at old pictures of past vacations to put up online on my blog. I posted five pictures I took on family vacations over the […]

I must admit I do not have a ton of experience with photography, but I have always loved taking a lot of pictures. I definitely like taking pictures more now that I am older. My favorite time to take pictures is when I go on vacations. I believe if you take a picture it will […]

This week was a lot easier than last week. I was able to get the entire detailed list accomplished pretty quickly this week because I had my WordPress site up and running now. I first read some of the noir stories from the list but my personal favorite was “The Shadow”. I then answered the […]

Margot: Lamont, now that I’m here, is there anything I can do? Lamont: Yes, Margot, wait in my car, keep your eye on the house. If you see a light go on and off twice in one of the windows, drive to the nearest payphone and notify the state police to come to the Dubrille […]

The quote I choose was from the Nicholas Sparks book “At First Sight”. The quote is “Just when you think it can’t get any worse, it can. And just when you think it can’t get any better, it can.” I find this quote very interesting and moving because so many people in life think that […]

Two tropes that are beginning to emerge in the story “I will find the devil who betrayed me” and “just a wild goose chase” are two examples whose meanings are repeated throughout the story. The two tropes that is repeatedly used throughout the story is when Martan says over and over again “I will find […]

This week was very confusing for me at first, but after a few times of doing trial and error, things started to make more sense to me. After watching the week 1 video the requirements for this class became a little clearer for me. First I had to review the syllabus, which is pretty much […]

For example, […]

Transportation is essential when it comes to getting products to the stores to be distributed to the consumers. Without transportation we would never be able to buy our products from the stores. Transportation includes […]

I read chapter ten in our Essentials of Marketing book. One thing I found very important in this chapter is how some consumer products are sold directly.
