Digital Story

The assignment was to tell a story about an event, an object a place, or a person who impacted or changed us. We then had to write three ideas in which we wanted to use. Once we selected the one we wanted we then had to write the script. The script was what we recorded as our story. The story was only supposed to be one minute long. We were supposed to tell the story as if it was happening now and in our own voice.
My story is about the mothers I encounter in high school. At the beginning of my high school life I was mother less. Not that my mother was dead or anything she just wasn’t around and I at age I needed her the most. When I thought I had to go thought my high experience alone I met two wonderful female teachers who were there for me. Whatever I needed or asked for they gave me. I took pictures of my mothers and we also reenacted the first time we met and took picture. I also use words and a video for one of my mother doing a dance. I chose these pictures because I thought they were the best to represent those lovely ladies.

Photographic Truth

The assignment was to take 6 historical pictures within a common theme and put myself in it, but it had to look like I belong there. The images had to be either 5”x 6” or 6”x 5”. We had to use the lasso tool, the crop tool, color adjustment, filters, image variation and the stamp tool.

My accordion book is in black and white. In order to do so I use black and white images. I added myself to the pictures by using the stamp tool, for each picture I tried to use a different style. For example: some of the images have just my face on the people bodies, while others I have my whole body but in different clothing.
