    I decided to rewatch one of my favorite movies, Sixteen Candles, for this week’s assignment of exploring storytelling in the 80s. It follows Samantha “Sam” Baker on her 16th birthday. Sam goes through lots of negative events on her birth day including her parents forgetting her birthday and loosing her sex quiz that says she’s a virgin and saving herself for her love interest, Jake. In the end, everything works out. Sam gets the guy and gets her birthday cake. While watching the movie I kept thinking about the video by Kurt Vonnegut called “The Shape of Stories”. It was […]

    Week 2 Daily Creates I started this week late due to family visiting my home and unfortunate events with my spouse’s vehicle, but when I finally checked in I was stoked to see the inclusion of the daily create. I wanted to participate in them, but it would slip my mind. Now that it is […]

    What Do the 80’s Mean to Us Today?

    When I heard that our theme for the class was going to be 80s themed, I got very excited. I love the 80s (I have been someone from the 80s for as many Halloweens as I can remember). My mom grew up in the 80s and she always tell my sister and I stories of when she was younger and I remember being so jealous and wanting to live during the time of slap bracelets and mixtapes. And don’t even get me started on the movies that came out during the 80s…I remember wishing that I’d look out my window […]

    Wow, this is a bit of a learning curve for me. I’m fiddling with things and learning as I go, but boy oh boy…I feel so out of my element. It makes me think back to when I was in high school messing with MySpace HTML, trying to make my page look dope. I just […]

    A Rocky, but Fun, Ride to the Moon (Written Story) My trip to the moon was not what I expected it to be at all. Before liftoff on Earth, I pictured myself walking on the moon, laughing and conversing with my fellow astronauts and just having a great time. That laughing was more like screaming […]

    Fascinating Spacewalk Clip (Video) Along with photos, taking videos is a great way to capture incredible moments and sights in space. Videos in space, unfortunately, don’t have background sounds since space has no air for sound to travel in. Going for a space walk definitely got my mind off of the loads of work I […]

    Selfies in outer space (Photography) Bringing a camera with me to space was the best idea ever. The photos I was able to capture on my trip were absolutely incredible. Taking photos of the sun rising, stars twinkling, and the earth rotating gave me a new outlook on life. When I was stuck on earth, […]

    Bright light from the star (Design) While I was on-board the space-ship, I had many moments of extreme boredom. Since I couldn’t play video games on space, I decided to start designing. Lucky enough for me, I brought my personal computer on-board the spacecraft. Since I had lots of design motivations from the environment around […]

    Weekly Question What childhood nursery rhyme would you like to write a story about but change the meaning completely? If I had a chance to change a nursery rhyme from my childhood, I would change “I’m a little teapot” to “I’m a little troubler”. I’ve heard this nursery rhyme so many times as a kid […]

    Reflection on Four Videos The four videos I watched for this assignment each had different techniques and methods for film making that I either already knew or that I somewhat know. However, watching the videos definitely gave me better insights on the different techniques, as well as better appreciation for them. The first video I […]

    Roger Ebert’s Short Piece Reflection I really enjoyed reading and studying Roger Ebert’s article. He brought up great points about movie reading, many of which I tried to pick up. Usually when I watch a movie, I don’t have an incentive to better understand all the different aspects of the image. I also don’t tend […]

    Week 3 Final What a week this has been. I probably spent more time working on the assignments for this week than the last two weeks combined. It’s fair to say that I am absolutely drained from the edits and revisions I had to make on all three of my audio clips. With that being […]
