I had a lot of fun roleplaying as Ron Weasley for a few minutes in trying to recreate his posture. I have been told by many people that I look like Ron, although other than the red hair I’m not sure the similarities extend much further in my opinion. Regardless, it was a challenging exercise … Continue reading Movie Recreation: Ron Weasley

Final Sketch Assignment: Assembling the Semester
The final sketch assignment was a very fitting one to conclude the semester. It perfectly allowed me to reflect on everything I had done throughout the semester, even if it was an extremely condensed version of it.

As a college student, it seems that my entire life is seemingly centered around finding a job or internship for the summer and my time after college. It is really quite a stressful …

Going into this sketch assignment I was almost positive I wouldn’t be able to complete this assignment, as my artistic skillset and knowledge of photoshop was limited. However, I found that the Lynda tutorials were highly informative and this was one of the …
New Media Podcast Reflection
**SoundCloud Link to come** Creating a podcast was an entirely new adventure for myself. I have listened to countless podcasts over the years, yet I was completely unprepared for the other side of podcasts. As with most things, you do not truly appreciate how much effort goes into making them until you yourself actually experience …
Star Trek Into Darkness Movie Montage
For my movie montage I watched and took screenshots of Star Trek Into Darkness. By just looking at the screenshots you can see that there is an incredible amount of blue and darkness. Without even watching the movie you could have guessed that the movie took place either underwater or in outer space. This movie …
