    A Story of Lyrics – 4.5 Stars For this audio assignment I had to pick a speech, poem, or nursery rhyme and then use other songs to make it. I thought this would be easy but as I started working on it, I quickly realized why it was worth so many stars. I love music and know so many lyrics, but when you want to think of words in a song on the spot, my mind goes blank. I ended up...

    by
    I decided to do the Make your own radio commercial assignment (3,5 stars) and decided to angle it towards our radio show. In this ad, my superhero Charlie Sass has designed a hacking software that I’m trying to sell. I used a song from Free Music Archive to use as a background tune, then just played around with tempo …

    reflection!!

    by
    I am not a big comic fan, but these YouTube videos opened my eyes on how design elements can be used to grab audience attention and keep their interest alive. I studied ‘Hassan Otsmane-Elhaou’ analysis of design elements used in comics. The way Steve Dillion uses body language, facial expressions, and very simple framing to …

Things like:   color typography metaphors/symbols minimalism & use of space form/function/message balance rhythm proportion dominance unity   This sign I think represents typography. The way the sign was created …

I was able to understand the concepts that go into digital design and quickly came up with ideas while taking advantage of new tools like HeroMachine. The daily creates were more of a head scratcher or sometimes just missed opportunities. It was easy to do […]
