I expected this assignment to take the full 20  minutes when I first read it but then once I started it was so quick. I enjoyed doing this because it was fun and like a challenge to run around my house and find random stuff. I posted my pictures in a slideshow and it only … Continue reading photoblitzz

Visual Assignment: What’s in Your Saddle Bag? via GIPHY Background: Last week, I created a great Western character named Dr Wisdom: Tooth Salesman. He is an exuberant man that loves his trade and loves his teeth even more.  He believes that teeth can have an incredible healing power, even if no one else is on his side. […]

Happy 4th week everyone! So I’m thinking back on all the photographs I’ve ever taken (and there are TONS) and realizing how much I am not a photographer. I generally take pictures on vacation and, if I think about it, on birthdays or special occasions with friends. I actually wish I took more photos just … Continue reading "Definitely Not A Pro Photographer"

Can’t believe we are a month in and a quarter done with the semester. The time is flying! This week was about visual assignments and photography. My first assignment I had to do for the week was talk about my past with photography which you can find here. I really like to take photos and reading […]

My LAST assignment bank post for the week is what’s in your bag. This assignment has you take a picture of the contents inside your bag, except we have to do it about our character we created last week. Well this posed a problem for me since my character is a guy so I don’t own […]

This assignment instructed us to use Photoblitz which gives us a list of random picture ideas that we must complete in 20 mins or less. So we first had to take a picture when we started: Here are my pictures in that order: Repeating pattern: It’s not my favorite color, but I own a lot of green […]

This is my first photoblitz! I had a lot of fun shooting these images. Some didn’t come out the way I would’ve liked, but I have to hone in my photography skills again. I uploaded the images to flickr. and then created a Haiku Deck account so the images would upload easily. My haiku deck … Continue reading First Photoblitz

A big assignment for this week was to reflect on cinematography. We had to pick from a list of movies and they analyze the visuals of the movie. The movie I picked to watch was Stagecoach. After watching the movie we had to see how many connections we could make with the Becoming Better Photographers article. Before I […]

One assignment bank post we had to do this week was love at first shot. The instructions told you to find a picture of a couple in love and write a story about them. For this, I went on google and found a picture of a couple at their wedding. Writing the story was hard- I […]

Week four was ok, I kind of felt indifferent about it. I liked how it was visual (because I like working with that), but some of the assignments I wasn’t a big fan of. The daily creates were not that hard, and this time because I was on top of everything, I didn’t have to … Continue reading "Weekly Summary"

The pixel outlaw I created a pixel image of my outlaw character by creating a 16×16 template in MS Paint. I initially thought I was done and proceeded to upload the extremely small image into my blog before I realized I was going to have to re-size it again. Here’s the 16×16 version: itty bitty … Continue reading "Visual Assignment – 256 Points"

For this assignment I chose to create a collage of my family because 1) I already have a bunch of photos of them, and 2) they’re pretty cool

We were both starting preschool when we became friends. Our earliest memories are playing outside during recess, or coloring each other pictures during free time. We became best friends, and gave each other ring pops and promised each other we would be best friends forever. I still have that ring pop. We went on to … Continue reading Our love story

Hey Y’all Agnus here, I heard one of your assignments this week was to check out whats in your saddle and I thought how fun! Ill give it a go.

  http://johnjohnston.info/photoblitzer/ *I wasn’t the biggest fan of this project but it was ok, it was a good way to get peoples creativeness out.

I chose to watch stagecoach, because lets be honest…i’m really broke and cannot afford anything anymore. The movie was a lot about traveling, and a lot of landscapes are shown in this movie. It wasn’t my favorite movie, but it also was okay, I really enjoyed all the landscapes shots because I am a nature … Continue reading "Stagecoach"
