Blog Assignment 8A link and picture
www.thisamericanlife.org/radio-archives/episode/178/superpowers
I know this is supposed to be an audio assignment but my macbook crashed and I am writing this on a computer in the library.
So if I had to choose between flying or invisibility I would choose invisibility. Invisibility would be more useful no matter the situation. First of all flying would be fun but it would be hard to fight crime just by flying because it doesn't mean your invulnerable. Think ironman or superman they can fly but they are only successful because they are invulnerable and strong and have other superpowers. Invisibility on the other hand is useful because you could go anywhere and do anything you want whenever you want with out fear of being shot or hurt because nobody would notice you. Yeah it would be hard not to steel and spy on people and be a villain but not everyone would do those things. I would like to think that personally if i had the power of invisibility I would use my power for good. I would learn to kill without weapons so that I wouldn't have to use them because people would see the weapon floating and know I was there. I would steel from big corporate businesses and use the money to be like batman except better because I would be invisible. I would be able to steel jets and helicopters if I had to fly and I would be able to go on special ops missions overseas and do things like rescue captives and assassinate dictators. I would make the world better. I don't think choosing invisibility means anything about my personality except that I am smarter then the people who would choose to fly.

Blog Assignment 5A
The 2 pictures are located further down the page and are labeled original and reframed. They are both by Salvador Dali.
I was drawn to the original picture because even know the picture was relatively simple it was a perfect example of a good composition. The picture was effective in directing were your eye goes because of its proper use of line direction and its use of space. The horizon line and the line that the cloud makes form a box around the most important part of the image, the mountains and the floating creepy thing. Then the lines on the foreground of the image guide the eye toward the floating thing and give the image depth and a sense of visual movement toward the floating thing. The shadow also gives the image perspective and movement. The image has a large amount of just blank space, which I think was deliberate because Dali must have been trying to provide a feeling of this strange subconscious emptiness that we all have to deal with. I think Dali was trying to get his audience to actively search for meaning in his picture. I reframed the image by zooming in closer to get rid of some of what I thought was unnecessary space. I believe the image still has the same feeling of wide-open nothingness space without too much space. I also tried to line up the picture according to the Rule of thirds.

Bioshock Storyboard
I drew the frames based on keyframes from a section of the first level of Bioshock.
