    The Final Heist – Part 4: Read All About It! – Web Assignment

    by
    Want to learn what happened to our outlaw, Rose Oakley, and her plan? You can check it out from your local news source. I started with another news article before using the xray goggles to create my own story of Rose’s heist. It’s difficult writing like a news journalist. I’m not very good at it, and it starts … Continue reading "The Final Heist – Part 4: Read All About It! – Web Assignment"

    The Final Heist – Part 2: The Fair – Audio Assignment

    by
    This is supposed to mimic the Fair that Rose is using as cover for her big heist. This sound clip was created using three sound files found on freesound.org. 1) A Carousel, 2) Horses Trotting, and 3) Children laughing and screaming. The carousel had to be toned down because it over powered the other sounds, … Continue reading "The Final Heist – Part 2: The Fair – Audio Assignment"

    Web Assignments – Google Translate Fail

    Original text: 根據72分局消息稱,6日上午7時50分,一名年僅15歲的女子在乘坐地鐵R車時被一名亞裔變態男性侵,根據受害人口供表示,案發時R車正行駛至4大道交36街,突然坐在女子身邊的一名年約20歲的亞裔男子開始偷摸受害人大腿和後背。受害人驚慌之下在Dekalb大道站逃出地鐵,但是該變態男竟仍不放棄,尾隨該女子一同走出地鐵,並繼續揉搓受害者後背,直至女子逃出地鐵站,男子便慌忙之下逃離現場。 For this assignment, I simply looked up a Chinese news article and took a section out of it to be plugged into google translate. The resulting translation did not make much sense to say the least. According to news that the branch 72 , at 7:50 on the 6th , a 15 … Continue reading "Web Assignments – Google Translate Fail"

    Story Telling Within the Web – The Onion and Post Grad

    by
    I love the Onion, it’s fantastic satirical news. After downloading X-Ray Goggles, I found an article on their website regarding graduation. The article was already fantastic. I decided to change it up a bit to describe something that I’ve been struggling with this whole semester as a senior: post grad plans. It’s the dreaded question, … Continue reading "Story Telling Within the Web – The Onion and Post Grad"

    by
    I had trouble accessing UMW domains, I’m not sure what went wrong, but here is my weekly summary. Below are my mashup assignments I did this week. I’m really happy about this because it allowed me to incorporate a lot of design work. I’m more into that than I am into video production. Holiday Mashup (3 … Continue reading "Week 12 Summary"

    Week 11 Summary

    by
    This week was once again difficult. Not because of the assignments, but because of the scheduling and organization problems I had balancing my workload. I just began EMT training so it’s been difficult, but fun driving up to Vienna and back to work on school and fire department training. This week my group completed our puppet … Continue reading "Week 11 Summary"

    Video Essay

    by
    I really enjoy film and film analysis. While I enjoy watching films, I haven’t gotten the hang of making them. I found How to Structure a Video Essay extremely helpful for this assignment. Even though my video editing skills are waaaaaay behind his, it gave me some good ideas on how to properly edit my voice … Continue reading "Video Essay"

    Week 9 Summary

    by
    I’m finding it more and more difficult to manage my time properly regarding some of these assignments. I really struggled to find a radioshow time that I would be available to listen to, and in the end, I couldn’t coordinate with my schedule. That’s my own fault, and something I’ve been trying to work with … Continue reading "Week 9 Summary"
