Raising Hope

I don’t really know if this is what we were supposed to do with the fanfiction assignment. I’m not super obsessed with anything, but right now my favorite TV show is Raising Hope. The basic story line is that a guy in his early 20s gets a girl pregnant, finds out she’s a felon, she [...] Continue reading

Fan-Fiction (Part 2) Mashup: Batman vs. Godzilla

For my Fan Fiction project, I decided to continue on with my website’s theme of video mash-ups. I feel that fan fiction itself is very much a mash-up in it’s own sense, bringing together cultural icons/symbols, whether they are from movies, or books, or the internet, and creating your own story out of them. That’s [...] Continue reading

Mean Glee Girls

So I know that I may or may not have posted a lot of Mean Girls related things in this class, but I thought that with an “obsessions” assignment such as this one, it was too good to pass up. I thought about merging two of my obsessions- Mean Girls, and Glee (from my last [...] Continue reading

Sneaker Music

Sorry but I was thinking about what to do with my obsession, which are sneakers and music. So I decided to make a video using sneakers and music. Sneakers are art like my blog shows, but it can also go with the moment. One can say “I wore these sneakers when this happened” for example. Sneakers can [...] Continue reading

Fan Fiction

I’m still unsure as to exactly what we are supposed to do for the second part of our Fan Fiction assignment, but I decided to post something anyway. As a part of my obsessions I posted that my favorite things to watch on TV are shows that involve weddings or babies and so for my [...] Continue reading

Wintersong

Well, I’ll say this: having an assignment to create something about an obsession sure gives a person nice creative license– and that obsession an amount of legitimacy. Because some may say “it’s crazy that you created that.” And I could say, “oh well, it’s my assignment.” Voila. The genius of this entire course. I thought [...] Continue reading

Assignment 11 Part 2: Homage

Apparantly, I do have an obsession: shows revolving around families! In part 1 of the assignment, I blogged about Modern Family. In creating an homage to that show for part …Continue reading » Continue reading

Mordor & More

For our last creative assignment, I decided to tackle design because it’s something I’m interested in and haven’t really had many opportunities to work with. I was inspired by Boba’s invoice more than anything, and after some initial frustration with learning Corel Photo Paint, I had a lot of fun designing LOTR fan fiction [...] Continue reading
