I’m missing a few images, but I honestly don’t know where most of the locations were, even after going here for three and a half years. Whoops.

Scavenger Project

First and foremost, I would like to admit that this was rushed, while also asserting that it is done to the best of my ability given the time I had, which was limited by deadline and further limited by poorly timed illness. These photos are not the most creative, I will readily admit, but I am pretty happy that I was able to get this done at all.

 

The Media Arts equipment checkout counter. Unremarkable, but it has every piece of hardware a media arts student might need, and the man behind the counter is pleasant.

IMG_2481

 

The blue-wall studio in the Media Arts building, just around the corner from where the last pic was taken. It surprised me when I first saw it, as one wouldn’t ordinarily expect such a large and expensive piece of equipment to be at a community college’s disposal. I took several versions of this picture, and the lighting wasn’t satisfactory in any of them, I apologize for the glare.

IMG_2482

 

The Center for Student Engagement in the center building. I’ve yet to spend more than ten seconds inside myself, so I don’t have anything valid to say about it except “it exists.”

IMG_2487

 

The Main Art Gallery! My favorite area on campus. I visit it every time a new piece goes up. I’m not exactly an art lover, but I am a very meditative person, so things like browsing art galleries, museums and aquariums are very enjoyable for me.

IMG_2488

 

The Art-O-Mat. While I find the idea and design of the machine amusing and whimsical, I never liked vending machines of any sort much. Too many stolen quarters as a kid ruined them for me.

IMG_2489

 

The Reference Counter in the Library on the second floor of the center building. I can see it from where I am sitting right now, actually. I never needed to call on this resource in particular, so I don’t have a lot to say on this one.

IMG_2484

 

The silver sculpture outside of the Health and Wellness building. As my previous exposition about the art gallery may suggest, i enjoy the sculpture art placed throughout campus, and this streamline structure is no exception. I am told it sits upon a time capsule, though I’m unsure if this is true.

IMG_2504

 

Mary Jo Kreindal’s office. I had run across her before since her office is in the main art gallery, but interestingly I had no idea that her office was there until now. I’ll chalk that one up to my poor memory.

IMG_2491

 

The Media Creation Lab. That is where I am typing, or from your perspective, had typed this post. Without it I would not have gotten this finished in time, so I’m very grateful that it is here.

IMG_2486

 

Judy Gates’ office. This was a pain in my flank to find. Nobody I asked seemed to have any clue where it might be, so this one took the longest to get a picture of.

IMG_2503

 

The Commons area in the Media Arts building. On days I have classes i generally spend two to three hours in here between Multimedia 101 and Multimedia 105. There’s always someone pleasant or helpful to talk to around, so it is so far my favorite place to just unwind after nine hours on campus, and maybe get some stuff done as well.

IMG_2492

 

The flags inside the “Students First” building, better known as Building 1. I forgot this one and had to sprint up there to get this picture.

IMG_2505

 

The construction shot. My time on campus the day this was posted was limited, and I could not seem to find even a single turkey or any construction besides this sign on a staircase. I couldn’t get a decent shot of the construction itself, so I hope a sign on said construction will do.

IMG_2502

 

If I forgot anything on this assignment, I sincerely apologize. Circumstance forced me to do this very last minute, and to my knowledge it is complete. I hope the quality of the images is satisfactory, as I don’t see much blur or noise in them. To be frank I am hoping my language skills will help make up for the lack of creativity in these pictures. If you have read this far, thank you for taking a few minutes to learn something about me and how I see my surroundings.

Intersog Company Blog

Screen Shot 2016-01-19 at 3.28.16 PM

 

After reviewing several blogs based around the concept of game design, I settled on http://intersog.com/blog/ as the professional blog to review for my Multimedia 101 assignment. The blog is for a company called Intersog, which helps people through the game design process from the beginning of development all the way through to the advertising.

Both the website and the blog are fantastically designed, but the assignment is to focus on the blog, so here goes the pros and cons.

Pros: The blog is community driven, the people who post to it take the subject and goal of the site seriously, and most if not all of the posts are on topic, informative and helpful. A beautiful compliment to the well laid-out website, the blog is intuitively laid out, with many neatly organized links that pertain to the purpose of the blog and many other links that lead the viewer to other sources of information about the company and what it does. Professional, simple, and well done.

Cons: Being community driven, the articles and posts are written in a variety of unique writing styles, leeching away the sense of unity between them after reading a few. A minor hiccup inherent to the style of the site.

The blog articles themselves cover various global events and developments pertaining to the game development industry and the technology that shapes it. There are posts stretching back further than would even be pertinent to the modern industry, and yet has posts as early as three days prior to this post, concerning the newer developments in the industry.

Lust Cosplay From FullMetal Alchemist brotherhood

Raised in a small town in Oregon, I spent most of my time playing
Pokemon and Digimon with my sister, watching cartoons or watching my
dad play video games. Growing up in that way was the perfect recipe
for an artsy person like me. Now I’m here trying to get my multimedia
arts degree at Lane, and hopefully get an internship at Disney
Animation Studios. I dream of living in Japan for a few years,
then London, and to finally settle down in Canada or the West Coast.

Here are a some icebreaker facts about me:

  • I can quack like a duck, I had ducks when I was young, and it just became a thing.
  • My favorite video game is BioShock Infinite, (Playstation all the way!)
  • I love to collect movies and books, I love a great story.
  • I hated reading until I graduated high school, picking up a book was like torture to me.
  • I love “SuperWhoLock”. If you want to talk about any of the golden trio, I am more than happy to talk about it.
  • I have dyed my hair over 100 times.
  • I went to San Diego Comic Con last year, and it was the best moment of my life.
  • I love to cosplay, my cosplay project right now is Kaneki Ken from Tokyo Ghoul.

Me, Myself, and I

About me… My name is Kimberlee and I love all things creative. I am currently pursuing my degree in Multimedia Arts at Lane Community College. I love photography, cooking, drawing, reading, museums, art galleries, theater, and traveling… Actually there is not much I don’t enjoy. My dream vacation is Italy.

I worked many years in a medical office feeling like I was going no where professionally. Overworked and underpaid it was really taking a toll on me. I was lucky to meet someone very special who helped to convince me that I was strong, talented and worthy. I took a leap of faith and here I am.

I feel my studies at Lane have helped me to learn a lot about myself. There have been many highs and some lows, but, no matter what the situation I have always walked away with new found knowledge. Learning is a passion of mine that I would like to pursue for the rest of my life.

“Develop a passion for learning. If you do, you will never cease to grow.”

Anthony J D’Angelo

I am still not sure where I will end up, however, I am not too worried. I know as long as I strive to be the best I can be and always have the desire and determination to do better everything will be just fine.
