In digital media I expanded my Adobe skills by learning Illustrator which allowed me to create digital drawings. In English, I wrote a short story and in the process of it, I learned a lot about true character, plot mapping, and more. Lastly, in Film I created a visual narrative film which was a lot of hard work. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"625\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.24.31-PM-1024x625.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-291\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.6384;width:521px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.24.31-PM-1024x625.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.24.31-PM-300x183.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.24.31-PM-768x469.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.24.31-PM.png 1192w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">My original plot map for my narrative story<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"100%\" height=\"166\" scrolling=\"no\" frameborder=\"no\" allow=\"autoplay\" src=\"https:\/\/w.soundcloud.com\/player\/?url=https%3A\/\/api.soundcloud.com\/tracks\/1832255457&#038;color=%23ff5500&#038;auto_play=false&#038;hide_related=false&#038;show_comments=true&#038;show_user=true&#038;show_reposts=false&#038;show_teaser=true\"><\/iframe><div style=\"font-size: 10px; color: #cccccc;line-break: anywhere;word-break: normal;overflow: hidden;white-space: nowrap;text-overflow: ellipsis; font-family: Interstate,Lucida Grande,Lucida Sans Unicode,Lucida Sans,Garuda,Verdana,Tahoma,sans-serif;font-weight: 100;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/freestyle-academy\" title=\"Freestyle Academy\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener\">Freestyle Academy<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/freestyle-academy\/story-by-malloryb-2024\" title=\"Story By MalloryB (2024)\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\" rel=\"noopener\">Story By MalloryB (2024)<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Illustrations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Exquisite Corpse<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the exquisite corpse project, we were told to use our Illustrator skills to create an image that would later be combined with two other classmates.

I wanted to make stickers so I could put them on things and personalize objects. Some struggles I encountered with this project was using the pen tool and the fill tool because sometimes it would fill color in weird shapes or cover the whole thing. I overcame this by adjusting my pen lines and refilling them. I am most proud of this project because it really shows how much I have learned on Illustrator and my skills of using the different tools while expressing my creativity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"644\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.35.37-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-293\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.805;width:441px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.35.37-PM.png 644w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-4.35.37-PM-242x300.png 242w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 644px) 100vw, 644px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Original sketch of my stickers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"606\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.07.23-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-263\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.7574421168687983;width:447px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.07.23-PM.png 606w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.07.23-PM-227x300.png 227w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 606px) 100vw, 606px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Summer Stickers<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"522\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.19.36-PM-1024x522.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-264\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.19.36-PM-1024x522.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.19.36-PM-300x153.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.19.36-PM-768x392.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.19.36-PM.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot of my Adobe Illustrator file <\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Music Production<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Parody Song<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For this project, we were asked to make a parody and to create new lyrics to a song of our choice. I worked with Jessie and Julia and we picked the song, Let The Light In by Lana Del Ray because we all love her music and it&#8217;s very catchy. Next, we had to come up with our song lyrics and we chose to sing about freestyle. After we finished the lyrics, Mr. Flo helped us record it in the studio. Lastly, we added some background sound effects. This was a very fun project and I learned a lot about making music. You can listen to our parody below, enjoy! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-audio\"><audio controls src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Jessie-Julia-Mal-Parody_mixdown.mp3\"><\/audio><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"570\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.26.34-PM-1024x570.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-270\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.26.34-PM-1024x570.png 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.26.34-PM-300x167.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.26.34-PM-768x428.png 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.26.34-PM.png 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Screenshot from Adobe Audition file<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2023-10-20-1-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-271\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.75;width:451px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2023-10-20-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2023-10-20-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/2023-10-20-1-rotated.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 768px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Me, Jessie, and Julia in the recording studio singing our parody<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Film<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">During this narrative unit in film I learned a lot. I learned how to set up a scene, types of film language, different film rules, and how to film an effective visual story. After Mr. Taylor gave us an important lesson, we would be given a small assignment to show our knowledge and understanding of the subject. I think this process was very helpful for me to learn more about film and constantly get my hands on a camera. Additionally, there was a lot of teamwork and collaboration. Whether it was a group or individual assignment, everyone was working together and helping each other out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Griffith Scene<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For the griffith scene, we were assigned to show our new skills of setting up a scene using Griffith&#8217;s pattern. This pattern introduces a location\/scene for the audience. It starts with a wide shot, followed by a medium shot, then introduce the characters. <\/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=\"23 24 p2 Jessie Mallory Phoenix Griffith\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/UAmWuLl7KcM?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<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Suspense Scene<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The suspense scene was a short film group assignment that allowed us to show our knowledge and understanding of how to evoke emotions of fear and suspense. An important aspect of suspense is to not give away the scare to early. You want to build up fear and maybe even show the audience what a character in the film doesn&#8217;t know. I worked with Julia, Thomas, and Ben and we created a suspense scene about a monster in an abandoned house.  <\/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=\"23 24 p2 Thomas,Ben,Mallory, Julia   Tension Scene 0008\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LH2g03pJjUA?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<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Chase Scene<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The chase scene was a short individual film assignment to show our understanding of film language, especially the 180 rule. Leading up to this project we learned different film rules to follow that help not break the suspension of disbelief. I decided to do my chase scene using bikes and have my friends act. <\/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=\"23 24 p2 Berent Mallory Chase Scene\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/fxpdSRlts8k?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<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Narrative<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The narrative film project was the biggest film I had created so far. I spent months working with my film partner, Julia, on pre-production, production, and post-production. We came up with our ballet story and wrote a synopsis to get our idea approved by Mr. Taylor. We then created a story board for our film to help plan out our shots. We picked actors who could dance and used the YMCA dance studio to film. Connecting to what we have done in English and Digital Media, this project was a visual narrative which meant no dialogue. This made filming and connecting with the audience difficult, but we have learned to tell a story through only visual. This project was a lot of work but I am proud of how it turned out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-full is-resized\"><a class=\"fancybox-pdf\" href=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Berent_Mallory-visual-narrative-synopsis-1.pdf\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"800\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.50.47-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-277\" style=\"aspect-ratio:0.75;width:458px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.50.47-PM.png 600w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Screen-Shot-2024-05-21-at-3.50.47-PM-225x300.png 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Click image to read full synopsis pdf<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"575\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_9037-1024x575.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-260\" style=\"aspect-ratio:1.7808695652173914;width:654px;height:auto\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_9037-1024x575.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_9037-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_9037-768x431.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~MalloryB\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/IMG_9037.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Storyboard cards created for my visual narrative film.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\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=\"23 24 p2 JuliaK MalloryB  Jr Narrative\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/GiGWBRjBTCA?list=PLD8161DA6956C4F56\" 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<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=\"23 24 p2 Berent Mallory Narrative Trailer\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/LKFOcOEDZYY?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\">After we finished the narrative film, we were asked to make a trailer.
