Possible final project ideas...

The first possible idea is to refine my photo essay and making taking it on to a digital film format. Maybe making it more of a voice over, personal narrative letting the words and images explain my journey of making it to where I am today. As on this project I wish I could've done more when it came to holding more power within the citations which could've really enhanced the project. It would definitely be a redeemer for myself with images like the one shown at the bottom can be included. 
Just one of the ideas that possibly might turn into my final project. 

Being inspired from my video essay I might want to do one about going though college and experiencing different aspects that come along the way. Showing how college is the possible journey into finding who you are as a person. I really liked the voice over aspect in my project and also how its included as a concept when it comes to video essay. I was thinking I can use myself as a powerful image and the college itself as the platform or foundation of my narrative. Also, one of my photos from my photo essay can be included in this project which shows me on the UPJ campus. 

This is my most definite idea for my next project, I could title it; "If my high school self can see me now" or "UPJ nice to meet you". Once again just possible titles for this project which more images can be shown and me actually being on the campus makes it more effective.

Reverse engineering Sofia Coppola's Imaginary World

" Lick the star " by Sofia Copeland, personally the black and white perspective points it out more. It's as if this is what she would want her imaginary world to look like. This somewhat relates to one of the Keri Smith's prompts that involves that actual photo and images that make her imaginary world come to life. That seems to be through a black and white perspective. Which it seems like not a perfect world as most would think a world away from reality would be but this seems to have a yin and yang type of vibe. Take the bad when its bad and you take in the good when everything is fine. The narrator seems to be a guide for us as we enter her imaginary world or the world that she lives in. We are getting other point of views but we still are reflecting back to what the Narrator is telling us. Sophia seems to have a lot of interesting characters within her database which then were transported into her video essay. These characters seem to be dark characters who have...

Podcast reflection and podcast link

Regarding my podcast it was very interesting to create. It was the first time ever that I recorded myself speaking with others about something that I’m passionate about. Usually I hate hearing myself after I recorded my voice but that was a comfort zone I had to get out of. Developing a script for the podcast was cool as well but it helped a lot, so I might not sound scripted. Other than that, I felt like I did alright regarding dialog and just to keep things interested in the listener. As there aren’t many podcasts about poetry, it was great to be a part of a genre that there should be podcast for. Many people might think it’s just people reading poetry, but its more than that. Connecting to any who is interested in poetry is the goal. I think the podcast format is not necessarily the best format for poetry, but it can be something that can be a part of hopefully the expansion of this genre on all platforms. When working on this podcast it was very easy to find people to inter...

Years still feel like days             Narration: Another year with you gone feels like yesterday. Years, days, minutes, hours pass by with a reminder that you aren’t on earth anymore. (Photo of my mother) No one wants to lose a mother. Mothers are the most important key to raising a child. As you bared me for months and had me prematurely on May 15 th , 1999, you were the reason I took my first breath. Complications came along the way due to me being born prematurely, but you chose to keep me alive despite the risk. On that day you gave me the name, Jaimere Malikk Washington (Baby Photo of me). The last child out of five children, I was your baby. It was the start of how you raised me to become the young man I am today. Effects: Fade in Music: Acoustic Piano             Narration: Single mother of five, nothing kept you down no matter what. You worked hard to keep us out of the streets and pr...
