This was a fun daily create to do. It is always pretty interesting to see what people can capture by looking out of their windows. For me, I am always a sucker for pretty sunsets and sunrises. This picture was taken through the window of my boyfriend’s jeep. This second daily create left a lot …

This week has given me a new respect for those people that can manipulate audio in cool ways. Creating audio works can be very fun and cool once its done. But getting it done is a very hard task. Especially, if you are not used to doing it. I spent a lot of time creating …

For my final audio assignment, I created a solo vocal trio. The song, “Tomorrow Never Dies” was played in one of the old James Bond movies. If you ask me, the song makes me think of the movie, “Mr. and Mrs. Smith”. Kinda gave me the impression that her and her “spy” were fighting hard …

For my first audio assignment this week, I chose to create a parody of a song. It was a pretty fun assignment to create. I got the idea to use this song from a video I had seen on Facebook a while ago. Another lady made an equestrian themed parody of this song. Adele’s ‘Hello’ …

Design, design, and some more design. That was what this week was all about. Design is not my strong suit but I think I did alright for the little knowledge I had. As most of us figured out, design is all around us. It’s involved in everything we do. Everything is designed for a specific …

When it comes to design, I am very much an amateur. I’ve done a good amount of projects throughout the years where I’ve had to make posters or brochures. And those have turned out pretty nice. But that is just about all my experience with designing anything. I guess you could say that we all …

Less is More

February 20, 2019

I am all about the “less is more” phenomenon. Minimalism has become very popular and I feel that this picture represents this very well int he design aspect. This is a picture of a friend’s nails that I happened to notice. Minimalism is also very expressionistic in nature. Minimalism can be achieved by using only …

I have this quote saved on my iPad as a wallpaper, and I decided to use it for this assignment. This photo is meant to represent typography. Not only is this a great quote, how it is displayed is important to this assignment. The background makes you feel clam and relaxed with the warm colors. …
