Recreations Causing Adapted Previous Feelings? I THINK SO!

the first image is my recreation using Molly Bang's methods and the youtube link leads to the end of Lion King so you can see the difference and see if it brings out an emotional response. The ideal of the children’s project and the recreation that we had to do with it really allowed a new representation and perspective of Molly Bang’s work and how important it is to understand the concept of images and shapes and the simplicity of things. When I say simplicity, I mean how just simple shapes or objects and the way they are put in a page can bring out a certain perspective of it. For example, just like the top half of an image will show triumph and victoriousness and that’s essentially what I did when I re-created the story of Lion King and in the end when Simba is standing on the top of Pride Rock after he beats Scar. All I used was round shapes and drew a cliff to represent the height of the round shape is all. In that case it allowed me to re-create that scene. Molly Bang’s work was very simple and showed that also words don’t need to be used when creating certain works. Just objects, colors and certain shapes can tell a whole story without a word ever being told. It’s like watching a show with no words just action and movement. Even after looking at the work it allowed me to look at it and really grasp how just objects and shapes allowed me to feel a different response compared to actually reading what is happening or hearing it. When I say feel a different response, I mean it like this. When regarding an image say like the show, I used Lion King, you can see the image and you can remember it afterwards. So now after watching it and then re-creating it using just shapes and no words, it makes you think wow, the way Molly Bang described how certain shapes bring out different responses allow us to connect more with the characters in the show and also understand how important the objects can mean when regarding a story. In conclusion, this project was very eye-opening because it just brought on another perspective of simplicity and also not needing words to describe feelings and emotional responses. Just by looking at the image will allow a different response especially after watching the original film or movie of it. The point of this blog was to mention how important Molly Bang’s perspective of shapes, colors, and objects and how important it is in understanding how without words, feelings and emotions can still be reached and adapted than what was previously felt. #emotional #mollybang #shapes #feelings

PICTURES? MEMORIES? Oh you meant Photography...

Image
^^ I use a great Icon, Kobe Bryant who unfortunately passed away in January. His life in photographs allow us to remember him in our memories and all of his great ventures throughout his career. This is the product of photography and why it is so important for our own memories as well as others. In part 3 of unit 3, what I like about this is the transition from text to photos because it relates to how our technology and how media has gone from texts to photos and how they are in correlation with one another. The aspect of photography is so relevant that people have been getting paid a lot of money to do it over the years and even now getting paid millions to do so. Even with the apps we use, photography is something everyone does on a regular basis. When I say that photography has evolved, look at the apps such as Instagram and snapchat. It is all revolved around taking pictures and sending pictures to people. People will take pictures of food, take pictures of one another, ...

TEXTS ??? is more than what you think.. this is a text..

Image
So, with the second part of unit 3. The idea of text has become so relevant in our lives because of one major aspect which is that everyone texts every single day. We have people who are young, middle-age and even older who are texting every single day. I have my grandfather texting me on a regular basis meanwhile years ago, he only ever used a flip phone. Times have changed but the main point is that texting has become a major part of everyone’s lives with the evolution of technology and phones. People would much rather text than speak on the phone, even posting a status, people are texting their status of how they feel onto social media. With the idea of texts also comes with the ideals of fonts and different types of ways to acquire attention for other people. For example, a lot of people who do YouTube or social media, if they have certain fonts that are different from the standard times new roman, it will gain attention of others such as the blow up font, different color ...

THE WORLD IS OUR MAP!

Image
\ This is literally the map of the world, but every moment we wake up and take a step we are stepping into the world and wayfinding ourselves through it. Me (buzz) telling everyone else (woody) that we are wayfinding ourselves through the world through each step we take. Everyone confused about how we are wayfinding ourselves through the world In general, when it comes to the ideal of wayfinding and maps it’s something, we all do every single day. Everyday we all wake up with the ideal of having to go somewhere or with the knowledge of knowing our environment and knowing where we would like to go and how to get there from where we are hence the term special problem solving. In this case it’s important in our everyday life to have this ability because everyday we wake up with a purpose. Even if its just walking to the kitchen to make breakfast, we have to know where we are and where we end up going. Wayfinding and maps are just a part of our lives no matter how we see i...
