For the rest of my college career I aim to refine my technical knowledge and creative identity within the Film and Electronic Arts program. So far I have had the privilege of being able to experiment with a variety moving image formats, including narrative filmmaking, screenwriting, and experimental filmmaking in both live action and animated formats. I hope to study a wide range of higher level courses to further develop an understanding of where my artistic curiosity and skills are most focused. Already, I have a particular interest in screenwriting which emerged during my time in Lisa Krueger’s course Writing the Film. Outside of this class I have been continuing to exercise my curiosity by writing my own screenplays, but I am excited to explore this aspect of filmmaking further within the classroom environment. Additionally, I have found that the fine art experience I have from high school transfers well into the video art I have worked on at Bard and I look forward to further experimentation with this format. …show more content…

The way that the contrasting compositions of a rural or urban area in film might affect the viewer is something I feel motivated to explore. In the Hudson Valley, for example, the fecund and overgrown quality of the nature leaves me with the impression of watchfulness emanating from the woods. The streets of Saint Petersburg, in juxtaposition, frequently held an air of modest celebration. I hope to discover methods with which the camera can be used to accentuate, amplify, or contradict the way that a place feels

When I was first put into the art class my sophomore year, I tried my hardest to drop the course. The reason being is because I knew for a fact I would not be able to fully enjoy the course with my lack of artistic skills. After being in the class for a month and completing my first art assignment, I realized how much talent I actually do possess. A passion for art was quickly created over the course of time.

My application to Arizona State’s Media, Arts and Sciences program reflects my interest in gaining a deeper understanding of media within an experiential system while integrating my study with the work of Professors Allenby and Sarewitz in the Sustainabilities Program. In consulting with Professor Allenby, I am confident his recommendation that I work toward the degree for which I will seek post-doctoral employment is the appropriate direction. As an artist and professional in digital media, film, writing, teaching, photography, and theater, I am astute to the symbiosis between art and science and naturally seek unifying themes in disparate disciplines. I am also a CompTia Certified Technical Trainer and have achieved expert status in Adobe After Effects. These life experiences allow me to work natively within a transdisciplinary environment.

Through film, the viewer can understand the proportional relationship between the homes and the lands that they dominated as well as, on a more individual level, the views from the porticos that the wealthy owners would have experienced themselves. For example, the spanning of the camera up a hillside only reinforces the argument that Palladio’s rotundas act as a man-made hilltop for their environments. Viewers, moreover, can hear the waters in Venice or the birds on the plantations while grasping the environment, and therefore have increased understanding into the decisions that Palladio and those influenced by him were making regarding their structures. The background music takes away from the viewer experience, and rather, the strongest parts of the documentary are the scenes when there is an aerial landscape and silence. This pairing forces the viewer to take a breath and grasp the magnificence being

My history as a writer has been a bit of a struggle of slow development. From a young age I had a hard time with spelling and this is still a trouble area for me, even with the help of autocorrect.

Also, I tend to use the ending paragraph to just repeat myself, so overall my first and last paragraphs are usually shit.

The first half of this semester was swift and I can’t believe how fast it passed by. College is a whole new world for me that I had never imagined with a lot of new experiences that I hope will shift me into a better and smarter person. There are more things I can do in college that I would have never dared to do in high school and I am happy for these new freedoms. I am able to eat in class, leave class without asking and they don’t care if I pay attention or not.
