Daily VisualsBySteve: Narrative Animation
By VisualsBySteve in Daily VisualsBySteveI am working on putting together a narrative flash animation that will focus on a quote that I have always been particularly fond of. The quote is:
“Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is non-existent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery-celebrate it if you feel like it. In any case, always remember what Jean-Luc Goddard said: ”It’s not where you take things from- it’s where you take them to.”
It was originally written by Jim Jarmusch. I’m hoping that this whole topic can filter into my upcoming thesis which will focus on plagiarism and appropriation (cross fingers).
Brand New Classroom Feature
By VisualsBySteve in OtherI was lucky enough to have my Aurora Film Festival identity featured on the Brand New Classroom site this morning. It has been great to see what people outside of the classroom think of my work as well as how they perceive it.
Compulsive Hoarding Website
By VisualsBySteve in Web/DigitalI finished up my Compulsive Hoarding Campaign last semester with a comprehensive website for Hoarding Awareness Association. I’m not exactly sure where it fits into my portfolio at the moment, so I thought that I would share it here.
This site was a gave me some good experience into the way that HTML and CSS work towards styling websites. Because the way that I was tough (with Photoshop slices galore) is horribly out of date. So it was good to finally be doing things the right way.
Take a look at it and let me know what you think (comments are working on the blog now).

Blog Gets Overhauled
By VisualsBySteve in OtherBoth my blog and my indexhibit have recently undergone a recent overhaul to form a more cohesive look. Along with this update comes a higher level of usability and some new projects posts. Let me know if you have any suggestions or find any major bugs. I’m always open to constructive criticism.
I hope to stay on top of both my website and my blog in the future, so stay tuned.
