This video is about nature and how people have destroyed most of the nature the world has in order to get its resources like trees. Once they are done, people then begin to construct homes and cities where once great forests used to be. This then shows us that in order to be able to support the growing population of the earth. We have to make room for those people, which cause it so that nature is destroyed either to build more homes or get the resources that people need to survive.

Kuleshov Effect

In this video I have used my dog Bambo to create the Kuleshov effect. In this video people get a sense of the possible things that might go through a dogs mind. We see that though out the video his expression stays the same but the different parts of the video suggest that he is imaging being or doing different activities.

Digital Photo Montage


The message behind this picture has to do with the Earth being destroyed, which is a subject that a lot of people have had on their mind due to the prediction of the world ending. In the image we see that the Earth in the background has reached the point in which it is about to exploded. Due to this we see that there are two ships going away from the planet. These ships carry a few survivors of the planet, who have left to try and find another habitable planet. There are also only two ships leaving because it is impossible to save the entire race so only a few are able to escape the dying Earth.

Montage of the World


In this montage that I have created, I'm trying to show how the world has changed since the humans have taken control. The background of this montage shows us how the world can be a wild and dangerous place, shown through the rolling clouds of possible thunder. From there two of the other images show nature and how it can be a beautiful place. A place that can be enjoyed by humans when they take the time to do so. From there the other images have to do with how people have taken the earth and conquered it through the use of technology. With the use of cars and planes people have expanded their control on earth and changed to their liking. The image that shows the busy night city, is an example of how people have made this planet their own. They have basically tamed, what used to be a wild planet and made it a place that they can call home.

An example if Transcoding

This picture is an example of Transcoding by how people now use computers to make their lives easier. Through the use of computers a person can store any information they wish to save and easily find it later on. The computer also allows people easy access to the rest of the information in the world.

Variability Example

This image is an example of variability in that a laptop has multiple uses. It can be used to communicate with people, as a tool to do ones work, as entertainment, a source of news, and a way to learn. A laptop can be used in many different ways depending on how on person will use it.

An Example of Automation

This image can be an example of automation because of how it is a picture of a pair of headsets. This picture can be created instantly and later on manipulated through the use of the computer. A person can easily use a camera to take a photo of any object and then take that picture an manipulate it through the computer.

Numerical and Modularity AVT 280


This image represents numerical representation due to how it is a type of media that is released to the public following a certain order.  These book were released as a trilogy, following the numerical order of one to three.











The image of the bookshelf represents modularity by how one can see that pieces of wood have been put together in order to make the shelf. Even though the shelf has already been put together one can still see that different shapes of wood that have been used to make that shelf.
