For today’s class, I brought in a rough cut of my film. Because I only finished filming yesterday, I’ve only got the first major scene in order.

As presentations are beginning to wind down, I get the feeling that there are a huge number of useless or nearly-useless interfaces available online. I suppose everything has its niche, but I honestly cannot imagine using many of these applications. The only one that particularly stood out to me today was thinglink, the video and […]
