    Fresh Prince depicted

    by
    I couldn’t think of any typical spy movies at the top of my head so I contemplated on some shows that I was already familiar with. Fresh Prince of Bel Air was one of my favorite sitcoms that I’ve watched growing up and probably the greatest break for actor Will Smith. While mostly comical, in this scene, we delve into …

    High School Memories

    by
    VXNP9863   This video shows many memories from high school. I put all the pictures in order from freshman year to senior year. I liked this assignment because it made me take a step back and look at many memories that I maybe forgot about.

    How to Ollie

    by
    The first thing that came to mind as a how to video was to bust out my skateboard so that’s what I did lol.  I haven’t touched it in a couple of months but this seemed like the perfect opportunity because the ollie is fundamental trick–without a strong base there you can’t go into harder […]

    Just Keep Swimming

    by
    This is a GIF I made for the Moving Object assignment. I wanted to make something simple, since animation can get complicated very easily, so I used some of my goldfish and a blue piece of paper. I took a few pictures on my phone and made a looping GIF...

    That’s Not Cheese!

    by
    Archives So I watched the videos and I read the essay. I learned what to look for in a scene and how it effects the outcome and the viewers opinion of it. But I still found it hard not only to find in a scene but also to actually analyze it! For my scene, I chose “That’s Not Cheese!” from the 2008 film version of Get Smart. Its not a very long scene but I still was able to find a couple different techniques we talked about this week. Its not great visually because I still haven’t quite got the hang […]

    Video Essay

    by
    For this assignment I decided to use the trailer for the 2007 movie Nancy Drew. Nancy Drew is one of my favorite spies of all time and I think that my secret agent character and her connect in a lot of way. I used the techniques learned about after reading the articles posted in the …

    Movie Review

    by
    For my final assignment I decided to do the Plinkett Review assignment. However instead of reviewing a movie, I decided to review a TV show instead. I decided to review the TV show Gilmore Girls, which is a shocker because everyone loves Gilmore Girls but surprisingly I don’t. I outlined some reasons why I am …

    This is My Life….

    by
    Archives The goal of this assignment was to take a short video of something I did on a daily basis. Daily life in general can be a little boring. I mean, most exciting things don’t actually happen every day right? But, instead of having you guys watch me brush my teeth or something like that, I decided to show off my walk from the parking lot to my office building every morning. Its quite a doozy! I used Snapchat to record the video because it allows you to use filters and things like to spice it up a bit. I […]

    What Did I Do Today?

    by
    Archives For this assignment, I had to create a 6 second video of something I did today. The assignment says to use the “Vine” app but since Vine no longer exists, I used Snapchat instead! Still 6 seconds, just a different app so basically the same thing. Unfortunately, nothing I did today was all that interesting. At least not that I could take a video of anyways. I took some fun claims today and graduated my training program at work but I’m not allowed to use my phone in work areas so I couldn’t use any of those things 🙁 […]

    Animation Sensation

    by
    Archives So this was actually way harder than I thought it would be. The assignment was to create a 6 second video of some sort of art. 6 seconds doesn’t sound so hard right? Not so much. I am not an artist by any stretch of the imagination and really have no idea how to create it. Then I started thinking about it from the actual video angle. Whats types of videos could really be considered art? The it hit me, animation! Through a web search, I found there are quite a few different free sites out there where you […]
