The photo I chose to trace myself with was one from my Senior year pictures. It was me posing in my high school basketball uniform in the park. I really like the intensity the picture shows, it is not just a regular smiling picture.

For my empathy map, I choose to do it on my whole senior year of college and all the emotions I have been feeling.

Well, I really enjoyed the assignments we had to do this week. Even though there were guidelines and criteria we had to follow for each assignment, we were still allowed to put our on personal creative touch to each of them as well. Going into these assignments I knew that storytelling could be visual, but […]

The most difficult aspect of the entire week was trying to add these suggestions into our photographs and drawings. I found that the best ways to use these tips was into the photoblitzing assignment.

For this daily create it is my dad starting his motorcycle as he is about to leave to go get us food. Then I decided to go into the backyard and play with my dog for little bit. You can hear the wind blowing and some of the birds chirping as well.

I chose this one because, I figured that ghost stories would have great audio techniques for not only telling the story but setting the mood as well. The first story was about a man who tries to communicate with the afterlife, the […]
