This course blog is where we communicate as a group, share responses to assignments, and post our work. You are required to publish posts according to assignments found on Moodle, and are encouraged to share images, make comments, and pose public questions throughout the semester.
I like your choice of colors. Where you trying to depict something by overlaying your mouth and nose with that square? Is it an illustration of the current times practice of wearing a face mask or is stating a different thought?
Nice questions, Vanessa. I once heard glasses and beards referred to as "emotional privacy." The term really stuck out to me, it's so true and important these days, as our images and identities are so ubiquitously distributed in the digital realm, to find ways of protecting ourselves (our Zoom cameras certainly come to mind, ha!) My only criticism of this Portrait GIF, Sarah, is to engage a bit more with the nature of the original image, as opposed to rely on filters and overlays. We'll have some opportunities to learn more about this with Exercise 2.
