Where are the Condemned?
Just another “for fun” side project I decided to do today. I’ve been playing a lot of Condemned: Criminal Origins for the Xbox 360 lately. It is a pretty interesting game, and its creepy, dark and terrifying atmosphere was the key inspiration for making this. So using an older photo I had taken, and a handful of layers later, I had this movie poster-esque project. Hope you like it.

grades
I did pretty good this semester. Not quite what I wanted, but overall I think I did good.
gpa = 3.58

social networking
There are better ways to communicate ideas than throwing around generic categories. I am not a business major, but as a...
The Things Have Changed Tour - Part 1
Today I woke up late, but still determined to go on a bike ride and do some photography. My goal was to travel through places that I know that have fallen victim to progress. I hit about half of the locations I wanted to, but thats all the more reason to go out again soon and finish this “tour”
Of the locations I went to, I did stop at both Garnett and Coffinberry schools here in...
Pop-up Promotion
For my final project in my Intro to 3D Graphic Design class, we were given the task of creating a pop-up promotion piece for a museum of our choice. I picked Doctor Who, the long running BBC sci-fi television show that is immensely popular. (Learn more here or here). The Tardis, his space and time traveling device is larger on the inside than it is on the outside, so I tried to play off of that...
