    A Week of Starting a Radio Show and Conflict

    by
    This week was interesting….I was so excited to come up with an interesting radio show idea that fit me. However, the people who were assigned to my group did not think my idea was that interesting I guess. I made the promo poster ahead of the meeting with my group so that everyone could see …

    Radio Commercial

    by
    I did not know what I wanted to do for this originally, but I knew that I wanted to personalize it and have fun while doing it. I chose to advertise the hairspray from my favorite musicals Hairspray. I did the iconic ad that Queen Latifa’s character, Motormouth Maybelle had to do on “Negro day”. …

    Messy March Bumper

    by
    This was so fun to do! I knew that I wanted to incorporate a Nicki Minaj song because who is messier than the queen herself? The only problem was that I needed the song to be clean. This was an issue. There is only one clean Nicki Minaj song and it is a gospel feature, …

    This Month in Pop Culture History Poster

    by
    I wanted this poster to be messy and all over the place just like pop culture! Finding the right pictures was the difficult part. I wanted to find a wide range of images that would help people understand what I was going for with this radio show. I searched “Iconic Pop Culture Events” on google. …

    A Week of Being a Graphic Designer

    by
    First of all, I LOVE DESIGNING NOW. This week made me realize how much I love making things pretty. Like, am I able to submit my own post for post of the week?? Just kidding! However, I like a lot of the stuff that I created this week, especially the assignments from the assignment bank. …

    Design Thoughts

    by
    Obviously, I knew that everything was designed but seeing that statement and reflecting it got me thinking. EVERYTHING was just a thought at one point and then somebody made created whatever they were thinking in their head. Design is so crazy that it is extremely “normalized” meaning we don’t think about it enough. We sit …

    DesignBlitz

    by
    I think that this is a valid type of typography. As you can see in the picture, the restaurant has in big, bold font that they are excited for us to be there. Then, in a much smaller font, they tell us that we can only be there for about 90 minutes then we will …

    Favorite Movie Quote

    by
    This is one of my favorite movies ever. This quote just makes it 10 times better. I remember seeing this movie for the first time and being blown away by after the character said this especially in the context that he was speaking in. It was the only quote that came to mind when I …

    Event Poster

    by
    I knew what I wanted to design the second I read the assignment’s description. This is an actual event that my club is having next week to celebrate Women’s History Month. We are watching this documentary that discusses how WOC are viewed in the media. If you or anyone you know is interested you have …

    Magazine Cover

    by
    I think that this is so cute!!! I know you all are probably tired of seeing SZA’s beautiful face, but I’m not. This is not a wedding dress. She wore it to the Oscar’s one year. If I had a magazine she would be on the cover anyway so I decided to also use this …

    Sports Poster

    by
    I do not watch sports AT ALL so I do not have a favorite team. But I remember growing up and hearing about this team for the first time. I thought that Nuggets stood for chicken nuggets and would go around telling people that they were my favorite basketball team solely for that reason. I …

    A Week of Listening and Learning

    by
    This week was definitely interesting because I loved it but I did not think that I was going to. The “making” part of this week was fun. I read over the assignments and felt like I was going to explode. However, I was very wrong. A radio bumper?? I did not even know they had …

    Radio Show Ideas

    by
    Here are just a few ideas for a radio show: This day in pop culture history Yes, I am obsessed with pop culture and I always see things on my timeline like “This day 3 years ago Nicki Minaj blocked Rihanna”. I think it would be interesting to compile things like this and laugh at …

    The Power of Sound

    by
    While listening to “Moon Grafitti” I really started to reflect on how sound can change our perception of situations. The change in sounds obviously changes the entire mood of something. For example, I went from feeling inquisitive to feeling a little panicked and worried for the people on the audio track. This was due to …

    In my opinion, the best bird is the Flamingo. Yes, the only reason I love them is because they are pink.. #tdc3330 #ds106 pic.twitter.com/4V8UzOSlJN— V (@virgonarrie) February 23, 2021

    Sound Effect Story

    by
    This pandemic started with spring break and has yet to end. In my “story” I incorporate us packing for break, enjoing time on the beach, and then going home to never return again.

    Recreate a Scene Using Sounds

    by
    Do I even need to explain this? If you have seen this movie series then you know that this is the most iconic scene ever!!! When I read the assignment requirements I immediately knew what I wanted to do. I have some baseball sounds and then obvi...

    A Week of Taking Pictures and Hating Them

    by
    I HATE PHOTOGRAPHY. I hate taking pictures and most importantly I had when people take pictures of me, so this week was definitely a challenge. First, we had to do a photoblitz. Even though it was only twenty minutes, it took me almost an hour to find a list of things that I actually could …

    Photoblitz

    by
    Take an extreme close-up of an easily recognizable, common object. If only shoes could talk. Tell their story in a photo, either on or off someone. Two contrasting things, e.g. light & darkness, life & death, cats & dogs. Take a creative photo without aiming in the viewfinder Make a photo that represents the passage …
