    The one that started it all

    by
    The first Alien movie, a movie near and dear to my heart. It is probably one of the earliest movies I can remember. Although it was a little before my time I can still remember the trailer for it “In space no one can hear you scream” The sets on this move are designed pretty […]

Hoping to appeal to my generations “NERDS” my info graphic was a combination of The Avengers and Mixing adult drinks. While the design seems simple the reality is, this project took about 4-5 […]

    tails from the mic

    by
    in this assignment we were to select a page from the comic book Tails from the Crypt.

    tragedy on the moon

    by
    For this assignment we had to listen to the podcast “Moon Graffiti” I thought this was a well put together story. It always seems to cool to see and hear alternate reality’s fictions.
