This unit was special because it took what we had already learned with basic storytelling and technical skills, to the next level with more planning and collaboration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Story<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Narrative unit kicked off in English with our Flash Fiction story. As a class, we read a couple of famous flash fictions and had discussions about them, then created our own unique flash fictions story. After I completed my flash fiction, I headed over to Digital Media to narrate the story, like it was an actual audiobook. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-930feb06 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"flex-basis:100%\">\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\/2057720204&#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;\">Freestyle Academy<\/a> \u00b7 <a href=\"https:\/\/soundcloud.com\/freestyle-academy\/story-by-stephenm-2025\" title=\"Story by StephenM (2025)\" target=\"_blank\" style=\"color: #cccccc; text-decoration: none;\">Story by StephenM (2025)<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"505\" height=\"504\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Edit-Page-Narrative-1-\u2039-Stephen-Messner-\u2014-WordPress-Google-Chrome-5_21_2025-11_11_56-PM.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-244\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Edit-Page-Narrative-1-\u2039-Stephen-Messner-\u2014-WordPress-Google-Chrome-5_21_2025-11_11_56-PM.png 505w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Edit-Page-Narrative-1-\u2039-Stephen-Messner-\u2014-WordPress-Google-Chrome-5_21_2025-11_11_56-PM-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Edit-Page-Narrative-1-\u2039-Stephen-Messner-\u2014-WordPress-Google-Chrome-5_21_2025-11_11_56-PM-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 505px) 100vw, 505px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the photo above, you can see my Album Art for my Flash Fiction story. I was introduced to Adobe Illustrator during the time of the Narrative Unit, which is what I used to make my album cover for my Flash Fiction. The person is supposed to be my main character, Simon, with crosses reflecting in his eyes. The crosses are supposed to symbolize the resurrection of Jesus, and the truth that Simon wrestles with throughout the story. You can listen to my Flash Fiction with the link above, or read it below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>No Token Prayers, No Compromise<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The staircase leading up to the church\u2019s youth room felt like a good place for Simon to hide and get away from everyone else. Simon sat on the staircase, all alone, slouched down, staring into space as long as he could. Stuck in the nice collared shirt and khaki pants his mom picked out in the morning, he thought about the times he had seen people in a praying position.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>He started to get on his knees, but sat back down again. He wasn\u2019t sure he even believed anymore. It had been years since he had felt a sense of hope and love in his life. All that was left was doubt, worry, and defeat.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>He sat in silence for a while longer, until he heard a familiar tune &#8211; one that he had been surrounded by for years. For a second, it was soft, and unrecognizable. It just had a nice sound to it. But as he continued to listen, it became louder, as the youth group had joined together in worship, praising God.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Simon closed his eyes and attempted to ignore it, but the voices and piano together sounded so beautiful, and hard to disregard. They were singing a worship song he recognized from when he was little: &#8220;Make My Life a Prayer to You&#8221; by Keith Green. The simple but powerful lyrics seemed to reach somewhere deep, pulling up memories of simpler times when he\u2019d believed without question, when faith had felt like something real and alive, and he had no worry for where his faith was.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>He tried to catch his breath, feeling the tears well up in his eyes. \u201cIt\u2019s so hard to see, when my eyes are on me\u201d. Did God really see him, a man full of doubt, anger, and regret? How did God find him, after he had run so far away?<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>All of a sudden, a ray of sunlight shone through the glass window. Simon got up, and looked out from the window. All he saw was the rays of the sun, and a beautiful blue sky. It was simple, but somehow felt like a reminder that there is someone out there, and that he wasn\u2019t alone.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>As Simon took a deep breath, he felt the weight lifted from his shoulders. He wasn\u2019t ready to believe again. At least for a little bit. But he wasn\u2019t ready to give up either. After years of putting faith to the side, Simon gave God a chance, as he asked:&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cGod, if you\u2019re there, reveal yourself to me in ways I didn\u2019t know were possible.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>He sat in silence, not even sure if it counted as a prayer. If anything, it felt like a question rather than communicating with God. He slouched down again, as his broad and athletic stature was now hard to recognize in that position. His tough hands and strong arms collapsed, as he began to wonder what God would do &#8211; if he\u2019d respond at all.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Then, Simon heard footsteps coming up the stairs. It was an older man, with a coffee in one hand and a bible in the other. Simon couldn\u2019t help but feel recognized by the older man, as his kind face seemed welcoming. He asked the older man, \u201cWhat gives you faith in that book? It\u2019s all written by man, not God.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cWho else is going to write it?\u201d the man laughed and replied. \u201cGod himself?\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Simon shrugged his shoulders, and the older man sat down next to him.&nbsp;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cI recognize that face. Are you struggling to have faith?\u201d the older man asked.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cKinda\u201d, Simon responded. \u201cI just don\u2019t know why he\u2019d allow such horrible things to happen if he rules the world\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The older man tilted his head, looking into Simon\u2019s eyes. \u201cI spent a long time angry at God. I lost my grandfather to cancer. He was my best friend and mentor. I thought if God would take him away like that, then there wasn\u2019t a purpose for me to continue living. I felt like God didn\u2019t care about me\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Simon grew a little more curious, and built up the courage to continue the conversation. \u201cSo how did you find faith again?\u201d, he asked.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>The man smiled, and replied \u201cI never figured out why God took my grandfather away from me so quickly. But if there\u2019s one thing I remember my grandfather telling me before he passed away, it was that faith is not about having your life figured out, or being perfect. Instead, it is about trusting in what you cannot see, and continuing to move forward.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cI don\u2019t know if I can do that right now\u201d, Simon replied. He didn\u2019t know which way he should go. He felt slightly encouraged by the man\u2019s words, but still felt lost regardless.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>\u201cYou don\u2019t have to do it alone\u201d, the man answered. \u201cGod didn\u2019t intend for life to be one we walked alone. We need one another\u201d.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>Simon looked back at the window, as the sun rays were growing stronger, and heard the lyrics \u201cI guess I\u2019ll have to trust, and just believe what you say\u201d, as he had a small glimpse of hope fill his mind and heart. He didn\u2019t have to have everything figured out before he came to God. He could come to him as he was, and allow God to help him rebuild his faith and life. <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><em>One prayer at a time. One song at a time. One step of faith at a time.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main thing I learned from this process is that audio editing takes a lot of patience, just like video editing. However, I learned many shortcuts in Pro Tools along the way that helped speed up the process, and with the help of a few senior Freestyle students, I was able to complete the Short Story, and it was a lot of fun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The main struggle I encountered was editing in grid mode. Once I realized that and I switched to slip mode, everything was a lot easier&#8230; other than that, trying to fade out my audio in certain sections was tough, but using the pen tool to create transitions and learning new shortcuts were extremely helpful and solved my main problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I think I&#8217;d change my pacing throughout the narration, as I tend to speak pretty quickly, and mumble my words at times. I think I&#8217;d also have someone play the role of the older man &#8211; maybe my dad or one of my friends do an impression to fill the role.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I&#8217;m most proud of the story I told. Based on a true story from my faith journey, I&#8217;ve had a lot of fun creating new characters to reflect my personal experiences in the Christian faith. This was something I really enjoyed, and remembering all my memories from my early middle school days at church inspired me to keep writing and editing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The story I told and adapted can be used in future projects, as I was able to describe the event from different perspectives at any moment in time, while the patience I had with technical issues and the editing process as a whole will help me in the future for my projects at Freestyle. In addition, I can help my dad with his audio productions and voice overs in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This project changed the way I appreciate other audio productions, especially my dad&#8217;s. He has been doing narrations for different audio dramas in the past few years, and his dedication and passion inspire me to improve my audio editing skills. Besides, I have more fun teaching my dad my new skills and doing it with him, rather than doing it all on my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Illustrations<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Adobe Illustrator was the app we primarily used in Digital Media during the Narrative Unit. Although I wasn&#8217;t too fond of it at first, I learned to enjoy using Illustrator, despite the many tools and complexities it holds for someone like me, who isn&#8217;t drawing or designing art 24\/7 <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"256\" src=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/05-ElaineC-StephenM-MiaS-EmmaL-1024x256.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-261\" srcset=\"https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/05-ElaineC-StephenM-MiaS-EmmaL-1024x256.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/05-ElaineC-StephenM-MiaS-EmmaL-300x75.jpg 300w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/05-ElaineC-StephenM-MiaS-EmmaL-768x192.jpg 768w, https:\/\/freestyleacademy.rocks\/~StephenM\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/05-ElaineC-StephenM-MiaS-EmmaL.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In the photo above, you can see the Corpse Project that me, Emma, Mia, and Elaine all worked on.

After experimenting with Adobe Illustrator for some time, we were given the choice to make just about anything we wanted, and turn it into a physical object. The result: a hoodie design that I plan on turning into a clothing brand: <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Alpha Omega Vision<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This clothing design represents the significance of Jesus Christ and his unfailing power. The three crosses represent Jesus&#8217;s crucifixion and the fact that he rose from the dead three days later, solidifying himself as Lord and Savior of the world. The focus of this piece is to show that he is the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end. It\u2019s important to understand who he is, that he loved us enough to die for us, live the perfect life that we never could, and rose from the dead so we could have a second chance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I encountered some grouping issues in Illustrator, but once I was able to get everything more organized, things became much easier and I was more efficient. Using a drawing pen and tablet was also interesting, as I\u2019m a left-handed writer, and the tablet wasn\u2019t really made for lefties. The digital pen tool became more helpful over time, rather than running the risk of not being able to draw efficiently. This project was similar but also different from other projects I\u2019ve done in the narrative unit because I had full control over what I wanted to do in terms of drawing, and there were no boundaries. It was different, however, because I had to do more drawing with the pen and brush tools, rather than using shapes for the majority of the artwork.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I grew technically through this whole process by understanding Illustrator one tool at a time, one function at a time, etc. Although it is a simple design, it took me a long time to get each bit of the \u201cground\u201d to be precise and what I wanted, and the Alpha and Omega symbols to be the right size. I needed to make measurements to make sure they didn\u2019t overlap each other, but also that the design was centered and wasn\u2019t going to get covered by a hood on a hoodie. I learned that I am a somewhat picky person and want everything to look a certain way. Hence, being patient and finding the settings that looked the absolute best in my opinion were some of the mental barriers. Still, I\u2019m very proud of this project and that I was able to make something that honors my Lord and Savior. I\u2019ve always wanted to do something like this, but I didn\u2019t know how or where to start. Everything happens for a reason &#8211; and in God\u2019s timing. With enough patience and with a little help from some friends, I made something I\u2019m very pleased with and have even more ideas for future choice projects!<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Film<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In Film, we&#8217;ve learned a ton of key skills and fundamentals. Now, it&#8217;s time to tell a story. From creating your own universe and rules, to drawing everything out bit by bit, to being as efficient as possible on set, my partner Landon Qizilbash and I had to make sure we got it right. Each video you see below displays a different skill of film that led to the final product of our Narrative.<\/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=\"24 25 p2 Griffith&#039;s Pattern AidanJ LandonQ StephenM\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/bE1_7RoJqfQ?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\">Griffifth&#8217;s Pattern is seen in the openings of most tv shows, movies, and just about every video you ever watch.
