Through music, visual art, film, and web design, I have been encouraged to take creative risks and develop a personal artistic style. At the same time, I have built practical technical skills by learning to use professional tools such as DSLR cameras, audio recorders, and software like Adobe Photoshop, Premiere Pro, and WordPress. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">During my first quarter at Freestyle, I have been challenged to think beyond literal expression and find new ways to represent abstract ideas through both words and visuals. Additionally, I have learnt how to use the software and how creative I can be. There have been many projects in Digital Media that give us instruction, while also letting us create something that we can be proud of at the end. In English, we have read pieces of literature that have caused us to need to think deeper, which was very different from other English classes I have had. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Art Reflection <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this project, we went on a field trip to the SFMOMA. We were tasked with finding an art piece that gave us awe, and then writing a reflection on it when we got back. In English, we wrote our reflection and then in Digital Media we learned how to produce a video and use our audio recorders. We also learned how to edit the audio and fun things we can put on the screen to make it visually entertaining.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p1 Art Reflection DaphneH\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/XzZbUlQnwBc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"546\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video-1024x546.jpg\" alt=\"Screenshot of Premiere Pro and the process of making this Art Reflection Video. \" class=\"wp-image-126\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video-1024x546.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video-300x160.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video-768x410.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video-850x453.jpg 850w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/11\/Heatherly_Daphne-PP-Art-Reflection-Video.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">The process in Premiere Pro<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">I valued the introduction of how to edit text on an image to help the audience see what parts of the audio were especially important. Furthermore, I valued learning how to edit my voiceover and working the audio recorder. In English, we did a lot of work on reflecting on our experience in the SFMOMA and how the artwork we chose made us feel &#8220;awe&#8221;. Because of this, I was able to fully appreciate the piece that I chose, and dive deeper into the meaning of it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Parody Introduction <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">For this project, we were tasked with creating a funny parody to any song with our own lyrics. My friend and I chose to do a song about a recipe for dino nuggets to the song California Gurls by Katy Perry. We had a lot of fun recording in the booths together and experimenting with the voice changers in post production. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">The song California Gurls by Katy Perry inspired us to write a parody about a recipe for making dino nuggets. Which is ironic because there really isn\u2019t a recipe for dino nuggets, you just put the frozen nuggets in the oven. We chose California Gurls because it was a beat that we know very well and it would be easy to change the lyrics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"audioButton paused\" id=\"audio1Button\" onClick=\"toggleAudio1()\">\n<h4 class=\"audioButtonPlay\">\u25b6 Dino Nuggets<\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"audioButtonPause\">\u23f8 Dino Nuggets<\/h4>\n<img decoding=\"async\" class=\"audioButtonCover\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/IMG_6186.jpg\" alt=\"Click here to play\/pause audio\" \/>\n<\/div>\n<audio preload=\"auto\" id=\"audio1\">\n        <source src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~DaphneH\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Parody-by-DaphneH-2025.mp3\" type=\"audio\/mp3\">\n<\/audio>\n<script src=\"\/Scripts\/audioButton1.js\"><\/script>\n<style>\n@import url(\"\/styles\/audioButton.css\");\n.audioButton {\n\tbackground-color: #F2D4D7;\n\tborder: 2px #000 solid;\n\tmax-width: 250px;\n           float: left; \/* or right *\/\n           margin-right: 20px; \/* separates from text *\/\n}\n<\/style>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">First, we wrote our lyrics out and then sung them in the recording booth. Then, we edited it all together and decided at the end that we liked the voice changers on some parts of the song. What I valued most about the process of making a parody was being able to learn how to edit together voice clips and how to use the microphones in the recording booths. Most interesting to me in the process of making this parody was hearing what the voice changers did to our singing, it was really funny. In life, I think it\u2019s really important to know recipes and to be able to cook, and so I wrote parody lyrics to convey how to cook dino nuggets, which Ashley and I think are amazing snacks. We thought it was really funny because it\u2019s super easy to make dino nuggets, yet we wrote a whole parody about it. I am most proud of the lyrics in my parody song because I think it makes it really funny and the words all work together. I don\u2019t think there was a point where I didn\u2019t like a lyric or it didn\u2019t fit in with the rest of the song, and I was proud of that.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Parody Lyrics <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Greetings Nuggets, <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s cookin&#8217; good lookin&#8217; <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I know a place, where you can find some dino nuggets<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Warm up the tray, to 3 hundred sixty seven degrees <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Pop em&#8217; on a pan, and let them sizzle in the heat <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Crispy and brown, sends tingles to my feet<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">You can buy so much chicken, but nothing comes close to the golden dino <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What&#8217;s a meal without them?

Now, we can layer photos and use our creativity to edit them in Photoshop. I used photos that I have taken on my digital camera to do this assignment. Something I value about learning how to use blend modes in Photoshop is that now in future projects, I know how to adjust an image, or combine two images together.

I liked taking photos of the lights the most. We turned on a long shutter speed and it made it so that we could see the path of the light and even make shapes or words with it. I also liked changing the white balance because you could make it look like the sky was different colors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Film <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">In Film so far, we have learned how to use our cameras and how to do editing in Premiere Pro. It has been really fun to create my own films and work with the people in my class to produce a piece of art that we&#8217;re all proud of. I also have enjoyed being able to receive feedback from my peers on how to improve my films. I value being able to create something that I can watch and send to family members to show them. I value being able to experiment with film language and visual art to produce a message.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Experimental Film <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Synopsis &#8211; Experimental <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">My concept is <strong>bewilderment through learning to love.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left wp-block-paragraph\">This film demonstrates bewilderment through learning to love by depicting the gravitational pull between the moon and the waves as a form of love or attraction, and it is bewildering because as the attraction gets stronger, so does the strength and height of the waves. A lot of this film will be editing and making parts of nature look unrealistic and uncontrollable. I want to start the film with a couple different shots of the ocean, while it is calm and still. At this point it will also be like towards sunset time, where the moon is not out yet. Maybe I\u2019ll have some close ups of the waves meeting the shore, or some of the shells and wildlife on the sand. Then, I want to have like a wide shot of the ocean, and then there will be a deep, almost drum\/knocking sound and the daylight fades, but not slowly, it will be sudden and maybe the sky could have a slight green hue to make it sickly. Next, I want a couple clips of the moon, and it\u2019s very very white and it stands out against the sky. Then I want to edit the waves to be progressively getting bigger, showing the attraction between the moon and the waves. Following that, I want some objects to appear on the beach, a mirror, a piano, maybe a rusted clock. And I want the waves to pass over them, almost like they were going to break because the waves are so strong, but they don&#8217;t. For example, you would think that when a strong force hits a mirror, it would shatter, but instead, it\u2019s going to ripple like water or the piano might play songs without being touched and the clock hands go backwards. This shows bewilderment because even though the moon and the waves have such a strong connection, it\u2019s harmful to things around it and it\u2019s causing the waves to be chaotic and uncontrollable. It also shows bewilderment because it creates confusion as to why those objects were at the beach in the first place. Then, I\u2019ll have some clips that flash back and forth from the moon and the ocean, almost like the moon is intimidating the ocean to get bigger. As the clips move back and forth, the sounds will be the same drum\/knocking from before. Now I want the moon to be colorgraded to either red or a dark like black, but not too dark where it would get lost in the background. I want the waves to be reaching to the shore, like dark fingers clawing at the sand and they snap back to the ocean violently. They should take abstract shapes like creatures, storms and monsters. At this point, the background noise could be like whispers and murmurs.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"25 26 p1 Experimental   DaphneH\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ls-0wvi2NNE?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading has-text-align-center\">Film Exercises <\/h3>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed alignleft is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Video Scavenger Hunt - AshleyC, AJY, DaphneH\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/gSHkzdY6-Ok?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The goal of the Scavenger Hunt was to explore different shots you can take.
