For this assignment I was tasked with creating a fake propaganda video, either being comedic or serious. I decided to go the serious route and made a quick video promoting the US military.

This assignment was one of my favorites. To complete it, we were supposed to come up with 5-10 words and then do a Google image search on the words we selected. When doing the image search, we were to choose the image of one of the first visible photos for the word. I chose to …
To complete this assignment, I created a story and and told it from my character’s point of view. I chose to do a story about Deidra attempting to jump onto her trampoline from her balcony on the second floor. I chose to do this story because Deidra is the type of person who sets a …
For this assignment, we were tasked with making an object move using vine. Instead of using vine, I used snapchat because vine isn’t really a thing anymore. The object that I chose to make move was a toy truck. I recorded small snippets of videos and put them together to make it appear as though …
This assignment was similar to the moving object assignment that I completed. To complete this assignment, we were supposed to create a 2-5 minute stop motion video. I tried to be creative and decided to make a train go around the grain track. Before I could actually start recording, I had to assemble the toy …
above is my video response to the video assignment “tell your character’s story.” i went about this story boarding by thinking about the transient nature of my character mo, and how she is everywhere (as a time-traveling badass) but also a centralized character (as i tell her story from a very specific characterization and perspective). … Continue reading top 10 mo facts

For this assignment I had to design, edit and produce a movie trailer for my created character Rocket Richard. Basically this trailer is for an origin film for the character, so in it I used a lot of scenes that depicted his early years and scenes that shaped his character. For this I used scenes …
For this assignment, my task was to take a video of an action that someone or something was doing and put it in reverse, so I asked my friend Jake to dance for me. For some reason he chose the song ‘The Lion Sleeps Tonight’ from the Lion Ki...
above is my video creation for the video assignment “fake propaganda video.” i had several intentions when making this video, i wanted to create irony, suspense, and realism. while the concept of burning/banning or in any other way limiting access to books is not a new concept (i even refer to the book- turned movie, … Continue reading propaganda, not for OR by the people

For my last assignment I decided to do this one for 2 stars, entitled ‘Pupper Appreciation’, however I hijacked the assignment a bit to instead be about kitty appreciation, to show my appreciation and love for my cats through the various videos I’ve captured of them. The story in this video is simple: I love … Continue reading My Love of Cats: Kitter Appreciation?
For this assignment, I chose to do the Get to Know You video, but for my character James. I feel like I had a good vision for her, but it would have come across more in writing than the digital part, so I’m trying to work on that! So, I did a get...
For this assignment, I was supposed to do a product review. Lately, I have been feeling very passionate about my Papermate Ink Joy pens, and I have found myself telling people my grievances with them on multiple occasions. So, I decided that it would b...
I did a silly weather forecast for this assignment. It was supposed to be as if I was a weatherman, but I could make it silly, so I did! However, I didn’t have anyone to film me, and it came out really awkward if I just used my computer to film i...
For this assignment, I created a 30 second documentary of Solenya in his day. I had my friend curtis play him after class ended. First he is looking over his minerals and potion materials, next he’s making sure that the potion he’s about to drink has all the right levels of the ingredients he needs, …
For this assignment, for 4 and 1/2 stars, I created a story with no dialogue. I thought of it when I was getting out of bed and I was like I really don’t wanna leave to go to class, so I thought, hell, this is going to be my story. I filmed all the way …
This week my huge capstone paper was due Thursday so I put all of this off until Friday.. 0/10 do not recommend. I’m exhausted. Anyways, I chose 3 really cool assignments and kind of ran with them! I chose to incorporate my capstone into these stars by creating the Tell Me Something I Don’t Know …
So for this assignment 3 1/2 stars, I thought to create a cooking show, and feature Solenya’s favorite dish…..mashed potatoes!!!! I thought of this because My boyfriend Eric and I were going to make dinner, and I thought “What would Solenya want to eat tonight?” and then BAM! Mashed potatoes! Who doesn’t like mashed potatoes?! Solenya …
For my final assignment, I decided to do the Of Most Importance! Assignment (3 stars) for my character, Ella. I thought it would be fun to come up with some of her favorite things! At first, I thought of her magic/ witchcraft- of course! Then, I thought about her mother, who is the most important …
An Explanation So this is a really weird concept. I wanted to walk into the room and have a really crazy scene, then walk back in to have my friends just sitting in the room like nothing happened. The creature in the corner in the first entrance is a creature created in the vein … Continue reading A Horror Scene
This made me nostalgic. I really enjoyed going through my old blog posts and daily creates to find the things I liked the most. The music is also something I made for this class! It’s interesting to see the progress in writing I’ve done as well, I was a little too awkward to say much … Continue reading Digital Story Compilation
This was a fun little video to make. The thought behind it took significantly longer than the video did, obviously, but even then there were multiple takes. I really enjoyed making it though! The file was around 2 seconds which was as short as I could make it, and then I edited it down to … Continue reading 1 Second Story
Here’s the write up in the video: I put the video together in final cut and edited in the transition frames and title sequences. I don’t really like title cards and end credits, but I thought by making them funny I would be at peace with it. Get ready for more of them. My friend … Continue reading Recording a Memory
This week I chose to do this assignment for 4 stars, which was to create a 30 second documentary that tells its own story. I took a more comedic approach to this assignment, telling the story you see in the video. Does this happen to anyone else at around 1 AM? You go into the … Continue reading Every Night at 1 AM…
For this assignment (4 stars), I found my favorite transitions on iMovie. I haven’t really experimented with the transitions, so when I found this assignment I thought it would be good practice. I have always used transition,s but I kind of just ...
For my second assignment this week I did this one for 3 more stars. The goal of this assignment was to create a montage of you failing at a particular video game.

My last assignment for the week I did the assignment, “Get to know me” #2230. This assignment asked for me to answer some questions asked by the class. Unfortunately I literally only had questions asked by the wonderful ladies from our radio show group. Such a great group. Anyway so I only had 3 questions … Continue reading Pregunatas, amiga?
So for this assignment, honestly, it didn’t have any instructions but was called “I’m a girl” so I just went with my imagination and said that I would gather pics of some of my favorite “girl stores” to shop and also...
