What has been my creativity been for the past few years
In the past few years my creativity has been for namely college, myself and or friends and more. These where the few noted.
For college it’s the projects I did for the course. For my final major project I did a 30 minute radio programme which I earned a Media Award for Best Radio Programme. I created a video clip mixed of two clips, the hippo and the crazy frog all in one video with backing music which i uploaded onto YouTube. Recently I shot a mini movie with my cousins and thereafter a music video for one of my friend’s song.
I did most of the past projects with little research or none at all. Mostly it was done with common knowledge that I already knew. Apart from the music video I did every project with me making all the decisions. For the music video i had to come to an agreement with the singer on what to put and what not to include in the video. The college projects I had to follow the guides provided and meet criteria, so I was narrowed to a way of doing them.
I think my life is interesting so I would like to share with the world some of the things I do through my creativity. My biography would sell millions. Creativity is in progress till the right time of release. In conclusion I would say for the future my creativity will have no limits and reach great heights.
Research will help me reach these places through giving me the relevant and modern styles on the market. Again the more ideas, the better production. Watching clips off youtube helps me get ideas that I develop or adapt to my own projects. Visiting websites to read about other practitioners and designers is another way that will guide me get to these places. Reading books and having conversations with people on related subjects of creativity helps me gain more knowledge on the subject.
I am drawn to what is happening in other related discipline as my research starting point. This is so that I stay relevant with the times. Knowing the writing process and how it actually came together is does not seem relevant to the research. The economic, political, social cultural context framing the text seems wary although your audience look at these things.

Over the Holiday
Over the Holiday
Over the Holiday i revisited Soul Plane Directed by Jessi Terrero. The narrative follows a man who supposedly called himself an Entrepunuer. On a flight from Los Angeles to Boston, he got caught in a toilet seat and got his dog released out the flight. He sued the Airline for hundred million and bought his on plane. The story begins when the plane had its first flight. The tagline of the plane was we fly we party we land. Basically the movie is based on black people stereotypes, the narrative lacks realism. The mainstream audience is black people because of the majority of the characters and the language used. It’s a fun movie not one you can take serious.
A friend of a friend of mine who is aspiring to be a musician asked me to shoot him a video of his RnB love song. We did it and turned out fantastic but our intention was not to air out, it was to have fun with it. Initially we did a drift in the snow and we thought lets record another one. We developed a short film which received positive remarks. One of the friends who saw it told his friend about us, which led to us shoot his video.
Everyone took photos at Christmas and in the snow days but I can say my picture taking has improved since the last three assignments. After the holidays I noticed I had only three pictures of myself, the reason being I was the man behind the camera. People loved the photos I was taking. Later I realised they did not want to be behind the camera and they said, ‘his a media student he can do better.’
