  • Boy Scout Photoshoot

      For today’s New Media project, my team and I are still working on the Boot Scouts idea. In the program’s resourceful fashion, we borrowed another team’s member to be our scout model. He looked rather dashing in the red scarf. The hat is all him and how wonderfully fitting for today’s photos hoot. We…

  • Steps to Photographer-Designer Relations

    The last project in Jill’s class involved collaborating with the first-years in the photography program next door. When they got the assignments back, they felt it was necessary to have a meeting about photographer-designer relations.

One of the examples showed a man pulling a road as if it was a tarp. I…

  • Snow Ballet

    \Today, my teammates, Michelle, Meryl and I braved the slightly snowy city and went to the Pacific Northwest Ballet studios to see Olivier Wever at work. For the photo essay class (the assignment’s theme, the Creative Life), we decided to tell the story of Olivier, a Belgian art director of his dance company Whim W’him.…
