But as for what I learned about actual storytelling, I found that I greatly enjoy making quick doodles for this kind of thing, much more than I already knew. I expected me to not like having to repeatedly make a bunch of photos for these assignments, and I don&#8217;t think I have enough skill to really make it into a career or anything, but I had a lot of fun working on these assignments and the Daily Creates. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-x-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">What was easier or harder?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Magic of Nature (called the &#8220;Earth&#8221; assignment on the the Visual Assignment website) was a lot simpler than I was anticipating from a 5-star challenge, as it was really just making the words, adding a bit of flair in the background, then imposing a lot of nature-like brushes on top of the words. The Draw-It, however, was a lot more complicated, as I had no idea which photo I wanted to do and knew I needed to find one that had a good story to it. I eventually found one and like how it turned out, but I was expecting a 2-star to be a lot simpler.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-x-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">How can I improve?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Well, other than give myself more time to do these, I don&#8217;t want to make this assignment late again in the future. I could definitely improve my storytelling skills, as while the Draw-It story wasn&#8217;t terrible, it was very basic and didn&#8217;t give much in-depth descriptions of anything. It&#8217;s a skill I really need to hone for the things I want to do in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As for improving my blog itself, I need to learn how to actually customize and optimize my site, as right now it&#8217;s a bit of a mess. It&#8217;s functional enough for the class, but I would like to make it better. Once I do that, future assignments will be much easier to navigate and create.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Part I Part II Part III: &#8211; Assignment 1: City Graphic Poster&#8211; Assignment 2: Favorite Photo&#8211; Assignment 3: Magic of Nature&#8211; Assignment 4: Draw-It What Did I Learn?
