Behind the Scenes Another stab at the Apocalyptic Alternative Book Cover assignment – now in .gif form. The original I did is here. I took my old book cover and wanted to create the feel that we were actually looking into an abandoned silo from a camera. I added slight camera glitches and dust […]

April 13, 2018

I was going to do a visual assignment, but the audio assignment Create A Place was just too interesting to NOT do. I flipped through my copy of World War Z, trying to find the best setting to use (and there are so many to choose from!). At one point, […]

Phalanx, the Cure for All Your Pandemic Worries!

April 13, 2018

I knew I wanted to go into design again, and a thought that kept resurfacing was the fake vaccine that was prevalent in World War Z. Phalanx was a vaccine for rabies, and since the zombie pandemic was initially labeled “African rabies,” it was sellable. The whole thing was a […]

The ending to the movie World War Z is much different than that of the book, but it lent itself into remixing quite well. I went through a good number of scenes online to see which I wanted to remix, and the ending was the one with the most normal […]

My two suggestions for daily creates would be a time-lapse of your school day. I think it would be cool to do a time-lapse on your phone and it is super easy. We would see how everyone navigates through campus. My other suggestion for a daily create would be a short video 10 seconds long […]

A product of the Alt Ending video assignment: Thoughts This post-apocalyptic film is fairly grotesque and captures the violence behind survival. Few people are your friends, and even friends kill each other when one is exposed to the virus and turning. The concept of family is one of the most prevalent motifs seen throughout […]
