For my mashup I combined photo/video/and music. It was very challenging for me because I lack experience using photoshop and premiere so it isn’t as “professional” as I’d like it to be. I used a picture of my living room television because that’s where I liked to spend a lot of my down time watching films and tv prior to entering the program. I substituted the screen with a video of me getting frustrated at my laptop because so far that is my experience.
I had never worked with Macs before and after using the ones in the labs at school and seeing how well they work and how fast they are has made using my laptop at home nearly unbearable. It feels like now the majority of my time is just trying to get my assignments done on my at home laptop and dealing with the slow loading speeds and processing power. The music I added was just to add some good bass to the whole piece and to just provide a little ear candy. I’m very happy with my time in the visual media program so far and I can’t wait to hone my skills to make much more aesthetically pleasant and cohesive projects. I’m also in the process of getting a new laptop to work on, which should make things run much smoother.
Lastly, I tried a few ways to get the video to show up here on this blog and could not for the life of me figure it out. So I have embedded a link to it in my Google Drive. I hope this is sufficient!
