Day 6

At the end of our last class, we were given an assignment to pick an image, and come up with ten different words and phrases that changed the meaning of it. Today, we presented about half of the classes images, and did a small critique for each one. I thought that mine was good until we started presenting, and I realized that my words should have been better. It would have been an easier project if we had been given more time, or a partner to work with.

When we finished the reviews for the day, Jimmy put out a few different advertisements on the tables and one up on the board of what appeared to be the Hulks hand with a bandaid. After a group discussion, we finally reached the conclusion that the hand was very reminiscent of the hand of god, because of the positioning that is much like Michaelangelo's sistine chapel work. The advertisements that he had put out all had unique images that caught the viewers attention. We also had a long talk about how more people need to voice there opinions and participate. I do think that more people should participate, including myself. I have started to participate more than I had originally, but still need to do more.
