MGA Inforgraphic

The infographic I made isn't very detailed, but it does make me appreciate all the hard work that would go into one of these. Well, perhaps I should say time. With Canva, these are easy to make and require little to no experience with other editing programs. However, gathering the data and arranging everything in a neat, good looking order takes time and planning, something I was short on. If I had more time, I would redo this, as it is way too simple and uninteresting. It looks more like a basic pamphlet with no reason to be interested in the school. Overall, not my best work, and something I would absolutely redo given more time.

Storyboards a Plenty

Working on a storyboard has helped me appreciate them more. Originally, I thought it was a bit of a waste of time. If they were doodles and not decently more detailed, I would've understood them, but for years I thought storyboards had too much detail to the point that its original purpose was a little lost. However, having made this one, I totally see why there's still a fair amount of detail in a storyboard. Without those tiny details, a scene can't truly come to life, so they are necessary. I think working on this was great for giving me a better perspective on the purpose a storyboard serves, and I would gladly do one again, knowing now how helpful they actually are.

Hi-llo! Welcome to my Blog!

So first, if you haven't seen my YouTube intro video, here ya go: If you have, hi! Again, my name is Harrison Jones, and I am currently majoring in Integrated Digital Media and Game Design. I decided to major in this area because I love creating media using a computer. When I was younger I created videos in Movie Maker using footage I recorded with a cheap little camera and uploaded them to YouTube. Having spent my whole life watching videos, creating and sharing Photoshop edits, and playing video games while dabbling a very small bit in modding, I realized the only natural place to go from there is to focus on these aspects for a career. While I will admit I don't use them enough, I do enjoy playing around with a variety of tools, and I hope my classes will allow me to learn even more about them than I would on my own. As for what job I see myself working, I expect I will take a normal IT job at first since it will be easy to find one. However, I intend to one day work ...

Snowman vs. Stickman: A Battle for the Ages!

So I made an animation for the first time, and it's actually really cool! I've never made a gif before, and never knew how easy it was with online resources! Drawing each frame and compiling them, I thought it would look much worse than it does, but it actually looks really good. I realize now how animation, while it can be an extreme challenge if you want extremely smooth animation, can be an easy field to start getting into. While it takes a while to get really great at it, the fact that you can get into it at such a low level encourages me to try it some more. Overall, this project served as huge motivation for me, and I'm glad I got to do it!
