Week 10 Summary

WOW. Who knew 15 stars would be so challenging. Along with my 3 daily creates as lilah, and my 10 comments I was booked. Plus I had the pressure of making a decision for my final project, and the interview with Professor Burtis. All together, it gave me a panic …

Highlight Reels

As I mentioned in my earlier blog post (Marilyn Montage) I’m  a HUGE fan of Marilyn Monroe. I can relate to her in so many ways, like how she felt she had to sell herself to get recognized. I took scenes from “Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend”, “Monkey Business”, …

My 3 daily creates… as lilah

  For one of my Daily Creates I chose the finger painting one. I took a Sharpie and colored my left index finger with it. I recolored my finger for every petal I did. I made the stem with the residue of the ink left on my finger. Surprisingly, my …

Wow, I’m insecure…

I had my interview today with Professor Burtis. And man, those questions were probing. I ended up feeling very insecure (But that’s a personal problem. I have low self-esteem). My favorite question was probably the blender question. And talking about my favorite dish made me hungry, so shortly after the …

Lilah the Loner

So after my little dinner fiasco I felt drained. Having my secrets exposed in such a crude manner was just too much for me. And working in an agency with someone who’s from a part of my past I’m trying to move forward from would send me over the edge. …

Commenting

So I found commenting this week a little challenging, because people are posting their work in clusters all on Friday and Saturday (myself included). And I double dipped with comments a lot, on accident, but it was still helpful looking at other people’s work http://www.stephaniebwhite.com/the-daily-create/the-daily-create-breakfast-selfie/#comment-403 http://www.phoenixtakesflight.com/assignments/dont-mess-with-zuckerberg/#comment-7313 http://www.brianburnsofficial.com/assignments/billy-steel-the-interview/#comment-193 http://www.brianburnsofficial.com/daily-creates/daily-dosage/#comment-194 http://kkeelee.com/daily-create/week-10-daily-creates/#comment-301 http://kkeelee.com/assignment/play-it-backward/#comment-302 …

Psychotic Notebook (5 stars)

So. There’s a reason I chose the profession I did (it was revealed in the radio show). If you were to read my diary, you wouldn’t find the Notebook as my story. In fact, that movie repulses me. My reality was the movie psycho, hence why I joined the two. …

Radio Listen

This group (The Noir Buzz) took a different approach to the assignment. They didn’t create a story, like a majority of us did, instead they did a gossip show (I think). It didn’t sound like there was a lot of original dialogue, a lot seemed to be made of music …

Radio Reflections

So I didn’t particularly enjoy the end result of this. I think If I had a second try at this then it would’ve been better. I learned to reference names more in the script, and the editing needed to flow better. But from the feedback, the sound effects were on …

Week 8 summary

So I think this week was a good week to ease us out of spring break. The pace was just enough. I’ve found it easier to start the week out with commenting, cause it get me working and motivated by seeing how far other people have come. It also helped …
