For the “Event Poster” design assignment I didn’t really have an event in mind. However I knew that coming up for this class was the radio show, so I decided to make a poster for my radio show. I have never designed an event poster before so I played around with Canva. It was really cool because there […]
Skies of Blue on a cloudy day… Contradiction Creation
The “Contradiction Creation” assignment stood out to me because I thought it was funny. On Instagram and Twitter I am constantly seeing “inspiring’ images with quotes. And this week has been so cloudy and rainy I have been wishing for warmer weather. I can’t wait until it is spring time! I thought of the song “What A Wonderful […]
Clueless, Mamma Mia, and other designs: Design Blitz
Design is all around! Once I first read this assignment I thought it would be hard to find examples of design composition in my everyday life. Being in pandemic times I don’t really go anywhere so all of the designs I found were in my house. I took the pictures with my iPhone and uploaded them to my […]
Ferris Bueller Poster Design Thoughts
I had never thought much about design in terms of movie posters and book covers before. The video “Movie Poster Expert Explains Color Schemes” was really interesting and made me look at movie posters differently now. I learned that red and white movie poster designs are used for comedies. One of my favorites, “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” follows […]
Sounds and Songs: Week 5 reflection

The first was an artifact which I had never seen or heard of before.. Then I had to create a spam announcement! Finally, I named Sammy D Eagle the best […]
Another Biscuit Story!
I know that I have done alot of posts about my dog, Biscuit, but can you blame me? She is too cute not to talk about! I told a quick story about her on my soundcloud for the “Tell a Story” assignment. Enjoy!
A Suspensful Sound Effect Story
I wanted to create a somewhat scary story for my sound. Here it is: Imagine you are just getting home from work on a rainy spring day. The birds are chirping, but the thunder and rain have made it very dark outside. You open your creaky door and notice a fire is crackling in your fireplace. That’s weird. […]
Interview? Podcast? Music? Radio Show Ideas
I’m really excited to make a radio show! I think our theme is very broad so there can be a lot of paths one could take with it. One idea could be an interview of group members to talk about “their story/experience” with COVID and ways of coping (in terms of school, hobbies etc…). Another idea could be […]
