Graphic design is used in everyday life you just don't realize it. Have you every stopped to look and see whats around you? From posters to billboards to the packaging on your water bottle, it all has to do with graphic design. If we didn't have these things around us to persuade us to try new things, we wouldn't. The design of things is appealing to the eyes and makes us want to try it out or lures us to wherever we see something interesting. This is how businesses get new customers and how new products become successful. Yes the actual business or product is also very important but the design or advertisement influences the success that it will receive. People use color and shapes and text to express who they are in a different way. Graphic design is very important and without it, the world wouldn't be the same.

"They Loved Your GPA, Then They Saw Your Tweets"

In this article they talk about how when applying for college they can look at what you post on social media. I was surprised when I read that "As certain high schools seniors work meticulously this month to finish their early applications to colleges, some may not realize that comments they casually make online could negatively affect their prospects." Meaning that the things that they say or post on social media can affect their chance of being excepted into college. I was wondering if your account is private, if they still have access to look over them? I don't really put bad things online however when the time comes closer to apply for college, I will definitely review my account and just be more cautious as to what I choose to post online.

anyzja muse chase scene





The goal of this project was to learn how to create a successful chase scene using little to no audio. We used a story board to draw out the plan and base of the project. We then found actors and explained what the outline of the scene was. We filmed then edited the project. I learned that you really have to watch the angle that you take because it gets confusing to the viewers who is being chased. When he catches her I would make it more visible to the viewers that she was on another stair case. I would keep the fast pace chase because I think that its more interesting to watch. I think overall that me and my partner had a great experience working together and I would like to do this again sometime!
