Reflections on Photography
After reading The Story Behind. . . Migrant Mother, Maria Popova, the importance of a single picture became more clear. Her seemingly candid photos captured the feelings, heart and soul of an entire era. I was inspired to create a picture that told a story.

Add a Little Sparkle
I really like looking at interesting layouts of clothing and accessories on places like fashion blogs, Instagram, and Pinterest.

TED Radio and Scottlo
The TED Radio Hour is a short audio clip, with commentary included. From the short clip, I learned that when the audio has multiple speakers, the narration shifts once that new speaker enters the conversation. Once a story is being told, the background music is added. The calming music was layered with soft voices. In […] -

The Weekend & A Cappella!
by @angelk1208 June 6, 2019For my first audio assignment, I chose to do the “Instrumental VS Vocals” prompt.

There was a time at school, where I would pick a handful of songs […] -
