While I was abroad in London, I took a video production class, where we examined different aspects of creating videos. Copperfield's Star: This video was a trailer for a "movie" that I created from scratch. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tnq-j3fVog8 Commercial: This was a commercial for a product of our choosing. I chose Benefit's They're Real! Mascara, and decided to take on a tone of quick and easy. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vwH2A4CI_VE Final Video: This was my final project for the class, I wanted to create a Vlog, or a video blog documenting a day in the life. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZMzryTex6Ro

Cooking up stories
This was a semester long project for Applied Digital Studies, I wanted to create a website where people could create their own profile and post their own recipes. Utilizing plugins like Beaver Builder, WPMUV Dev post types and views, and WP Symposium Pro. I wanted to make the site a close to a social media site as possible and I wanted it to look the same as it would on a computer except on a mobile device. I presented it at a Symposium at the end of the semester. I took a screencast to walk through the final product of the...Read More
College of Business Advertisement
In the Fall of 2014, in a Principles of Marketing class I worked with a group to create a video advertisement for the University of Mary Washington College of Business. We scripted, story board, and interviewed students currently at Mary Washington. Filmed and edited the video together. This is the final product! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PnGH_m1VGbw

Evolution of Beadie
Hiya! So this assignment can count towards the final project, it doesn’t have to but I just thought this would be a fun thing to do! i Did the A Changing Character mashup assignment. Although this was really tedious, I had a lot of fun going through to find different beatrice moments to use.

She does appear in season 5 but I stuck with season 2, 3, and 4 because these were the ones we watched during the semester. So...Read More
Stringer’s Demise Swede
Hiya! So the Swede a Scene (5 stars) was by far my favorite assignment this semester! I really enjoyed it! With the help of my group members, Amy, David, Demi, and Carmela, we recreated Season 3 episode 11 of the Wire. Now SPOILER ALERT, this is where one of the main character, Stringer is murdered. So while we were in the planning phases, we met as a group to have a little brain storming session. Jim Groom, happened to walk in the ITCC when we were having our meeting so we brought him in to get his input. He talked about...Read More
