My cousin is planning on doing a children’s book and asked me to illustrate, so with Groom’s permission I’m doing some concept work for the book! I’m gonna be helping give ideas and input on the characters and story. The idea is that the book will be about a girl (or a trio of sisters) […]

Assignments Swede a Scene (worth 4 1/2 but I’m counting it as 5 because of how much work I did. tbh I’d count it as 6 if I could) Bleeping Censor (worth 5 but I’m counting as 4 cause I did a shorter video than it said to) Lyric Video (3 stars) Sound to Visual […]

My weekly schedule is too hard to work with since I am now doing student teaching two days a week and then working two more days a week and then homework for other classes and trying to fit in a social life along with what ever crap may pop up (which crap has been doing […]

How is this related to Bonnie and Cleo? why cookies are Bonnie’s favorite food, don’tcha know? This is for the bleeping censor assignment and I gotta say it’s pretty great. It’s definitely not the most impressive thing I’ve done this week, but it’s pretty hilarious. There’s just nothing better than children’s characters cursing. or at […]

I like chocolate, how ’bout you? …well too bad, this song is about cocaine. but i thought the theme of illegal deeds and running from the boys in blue fit well for bonnie and cleo. This is for the lyric video assignment. I created each page of lyrics in photoshop. I paired the straightforward, thin […]

For my character interview with a Mr Jim Groom I elected not to record my face on account of I’m not nearly mysterious looking enough to play cleo. i gotta baby face! i could have done it from bonnie but she’s kind of already a character. cleo is the one that’s really mine. or at […]

So there’s this funny little assignment called sound to visual and I figured I’d try it using this audio assignment. All images are of the haunted mansion, which is in disneyland and disney world. I tried to kind of have the pictures be related to what is going on with the audio. So I show […]

So I did the “Swede a Scene” assignment, which was o recreate a scene from a movie in any way you could. So since I like to draw, I broke out my wacom tablet and story-boarded a scene from the 1967 Bonnie and Clyde movie, replacing Clyde with Cleo. In all I ended up with 33 frames […]

wow look at this thing. i did the letter to your 16 year old self assignment i wanted to record myself saying the letter to myself but something’s going funky with the audio on my computer. it only plays a crackling noise and i don’t know whats up but i’m gonna call my dad about […]

I took on the character description video assignment. The directions were to take a few clips to describe a character. My one character, Cleo Barrow, wouldn’t be complete without her Bonnie, so I made it a video about both of them. I was inspired by the trailer for the 1967 Bonnie and Clyde movie. Then […]

I really loved the collaboration aspect of doing the radio shows. It was so great to get to bounce ideas off of others. I think I might have worked harder and thought harder than I would have if I were working on my own because I wanted to keep up with the rest of my […]

I listened to Inside Talking tonight and thought it was great! I think working in the sound booth really helped them out. The sound was really clear and there were no distracting background noises. Then they did a “real good” job on their sound effects; it was nothing too over the top, and the audience reactions […]

watch on tuesday 3-17, it’ll be the second show! for real watch it. bonnie and cleo are amazing criminals and cute to boot! will the vixen vigilante get the jump on them and rescue her stolen painting? tune in tomorrow! or here if you don’t feel like waiting. this has been a psa

For a sketchbook assignment in high school I had to come up with something to do for a free day, and what I made then inspired me to create this assignment! My goal was to practice graphic design without using a computer and putting it in a page of my sketchbook. I was inspired by […]

Week 7 may be over but our team is as #4life as ds106. Wow! this class gets a lot more fun when you get to collaborate with others. I’m glad that week got to do this at the midpoint and not at the very end of the class cause now we have more people to […]

Okay it’s pretty great huh? I had a wonderful group! We met up on thursday to record after the script was done. Lesya and Amy voiced their characters, Delia and Cat, and Gyeore voiced my girl Cleo and and did Bonnie. We went over each line a few times to try it different ways and […]

missing: famous painting, last seen at the catscratch club downtown new orleans. #noirpacas #ds106radio pic.twitter.com/3s0sRPIkvF — leanna epps (@heyits_leanna) February 22, 2015 This week could have gone a lot better. I ended up having to neglect my ds106 work to study for other midterms. My posts: radio show planning design project for the radio show […]

get ready folks for this weeks thrilling episode of vixen ventures! I made this title/logo image for our radio show. here’s one with just the font and no background if any of my group members want to use it for anything.                         I was […]

We’re getting the ball rolling with this radio show! My lovely team includes Lesya, Amy, and Gyeore. Each of those links takes you to their blogs and character dossiers if you want to review that. On saturday we all met up and I got to see the faces behind the blogs. We came up with a […]

So a while back I found a recording of outtakes from the haunted mansion narration from disneyland, and I jumped at the gun to use it for this assignment. http://whatinthewaltdisneyworld.tumblr.com/post/107744228635/a-collection-of-out-takes-and-unused-narration I over-downloaded and ended up with a bunch of effects I didn’t use, but I think I like having it as a simple recording rather […]

nooo design week is over! I think this has been my favorite by far, incase you couldn’t tell by the enthusiasm in my posts. My Posts: Assignments Lyric typography (4 stars) Word (2 stars) Promo Flyer (2 stars) Ds106 wallpaper (4 stars) Daily Creates: play with your food super power and then i missed a […]

This is for the cartoon you assignment! It’s me in my favorite dress (which I can’t wear because somebody got a bit carried away with the weather). I just did it in my sketchbook with pencil and colored pencils. Then I cropped it and added contrast in photoshop so you could see it better. Also […]

Copyright is something I’m always on the lookout for. I always worry about using other people’s images because they worked hard to get those and I know that I wouldn’t want anybody to use my things without permission. However if the person is not claiming the image as their own or making any money off […]

okay this assignment was way too easy. honestly it should have been worth one point. I don’t know maybe it would be harder for somebody who has no graphic design experience. The assignment is to write one word and not use an color or effects or anything and let the font speak for the tone […]

Okay so in high school I did this project for a yard sale that the school was doing so for the promotional flyer assignment I picked up that old file, dusted it off, spruced up the font choices and here we are. It’s all done in illustrator and the fonts used are from dafont. I […]

Ds106 wallpaper! heck yeah! Initially my plan was to make it just a starry sky as Cleo would see it if the gang spent the night camping in the car, and then I decided that a rocket ship would be cool to add. Who cares if rocket ships hadn’t been invented in their time? it […]
