For the Conceptual Project, we were tasked with developing our abstract thinking to produce an extensive array of works that challenged our communication skills. It had a focus on creative risk-taking, challenging us to ask “How can I use unconventional forms to express myself?”. With professional equipment and software, we expressed our views and stories through poetry, music, art, animation, experimental film, and web production. This project made me delve into forms of expression I had never worked on before; In Animation, we learned the principles of animation to apply them in short, traditionally animated pieces using paper cut-outs, charcoal, dry erase-markers, and sand, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Personal Poem – Leaves <\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

In our English classes, we wrote and studied the key elements of poetry and wrote multiple kinds of poems. This was our free verse poem, in which we selected a combination of an emotion and an experience to explore it through. Then, in Digital Media, we recorded them using our Tascam recorders and mixed our recordings in Pro Tools, complete with their own visual composition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I valued the Personal Poem unit because we created a visual and auditive experience based on our own poems. Creating a piece of media that combines visuals, writing, and audio makes it more impactful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Photo Haiku <\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

We were tasked with writing a haiku based on random emotions and experiences in English and then creating an image to accompany the text. In Digital Media, we recorded them and created a video using Premiere Pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
