Assembling an Ultimate play

For this week’s sketch assignment I decided to make an assembly of several ultimate frisbee plays. I thought that it was interesting because I haven’t done anything related to ultimate in this class ever since my first sketch assignment, even though it takes up such a large commitment in my life. In this diagram I […]

Mapping “Climate Changed” reflection

This assignment allowed me to see a story that Squarzoni was trying to tell within the larger story of Climate Changed. It showcased a kind of bleak outlook of the future, but not completely outside of the realm of possibility. In the close reading of the book, Squarzoni pessimistically ends the book on a slightly sour note, […]

Literacy Narrative Pt. 3 Reflection

As a whole, the literacy narrative project allowed me to meet and improve on all of the learning outcomes outlined for this class. First, I was required to recreate the same story in multiple mediums; taking written text and turning it into a graphic narrative. In this process, I had to take feedback from my […]

Incepted

Scene: Christopher Nolan’s Inception

Comparing Stitches and Spinning Reflection

I felt as though the most difficult part of this assignment was synthesizing the information in both works. It felt natural to find the similarities of the representations of trauma throughout both works, but I think that using those similarities to frame an overarching argument about the two works was the hard part. I think […]

Measuring Socialness

For this sketch I decided to track my “socialness” over the course of the week, and how it related to my general happiness. I tried to do a balance between things that would measure how extroverted I was (i.e. time in conversation, or eating with friends) and things that would measure how introverted I was […]

Literacy Narrative Reflection

This assignment definitely was not as difficult as I thought it was going to be. However, If someone had asked me to do this at the beginning of the fall I would have a much more difficult time figuring out how to execute my ideas on the page. That being said, I think that after […]

Cobraphoto

While this was probably one of the most demanding sketch assignments that we have had so far, I think that learning how to use photoshop and editing different photos will be pretty valuable to know. If not valuable, I think that it is just fun to mess around to see what you can create in […]

The morning I lost my sunglasses

For me, coming up with a topic was not that difficult. I brainstormed anything interesting that happened to me in the last 6 months and in theory I found something that works pretty well. The comic depicts a fateful morning where I forget my sunglasses at home right after pulling out of the driveway. I […]

The Contents of My Backpack

Contents: pencil pouch – I honestly don’t really use this anymore, so I don’t know why I still keep it in my backpack. Its contents include an assortment of pencils and colored pens that I used much more in high school. a roll of plastic icing bags – I had forgotten that these were in […]
