The directions for this assignment: “Create some sort of graphic. Design the overall graphic to convey some sort of feeling or theme, but then have text saying something completely contradictory to the theme or feeling. Sort of like one of those old anti-motivational posters, but with more design than a black box with a white

The instructions for this assignment were: “It’s simple. Choose your favorite photo you’ve taken and tell everyone why you love it so much.” The photo I have chosen is actually fairly recent.

Hello there, fellow agents! Week two is coming to a close, and now I get to take a moment to reflect on the things that I have learned, enjoyed, disliked, and accomplished overall.

I’m glad I chose Lee Hall to be the Fallout Shelter for the apocalypse, we had everything we needed, food from the Underground, entertainment and supplies from the Bookstore, and plenty of space for multiple people to take refuge. Thankfully it’s over now because we just finished our last rations of Red Pepper Gouda soup! For my first media assignment… Read more →

This week was a really cool week. I finally got to start creating things! First off, I was introduced to Daily Creates. This week, I did four! My first Daily Create was more of a doing than creating. To celebrate MLK Day I decided to suggest that people use their free day to serve others. …

There’s More Than Meets The Eye

January 23, 2019

I feel like this assignment can relate to our class theme. As a spy, people don’t know very much about you. Or all they know are lies that you wanted them to believe. Spys have more than one identity and what you see, isn’t always what you get. So how do you know what someone …

Hello there, fellow agents. As of today, I have decided to share a few unclassified photos of my private life with you, against my better judgement. Hopefully nobody will use it against me to blow my cover. Honestly, OPSEC has never been my strongest skill around the office. (Look, I may or may not have […]

I think the Secret Agent theme is interesting. Secret Agents are always seen as sly, cool, and confident in the media and I always thought that was intriguing. I’m not too sure what this theme could mean for how we interact with each other on social media, however. I can see how it could be …
