Video/Audio

So many aspects of this story could best be told via the natural sounds of people having a great time, riding the bull, falling, and wondering why/how they fell.

Would music be the natural sound? The background conversation as people confer with their friends what to do at the next attempt?

I wish I knew how to get that onto the computer. I’ve tried and tried. Maybe MAC wins.

Colors

It started green. Now, it’s red and black. Each new theme is reflective of a new angle. Now, the deadline has arrived. The thread to sew it altogether must be selected. Ideally, almost everything should change. What began as an idea, a pitch evolved into a story. Through whose eyes will I tell it?

Lessons Learned

After having spoken with Alex of Mad Bull more now, I realize the rental of a mechanical bull would indeed be a fun way to party. Perhaps it’s the realization of his competitive pricing or possibly having gone to my friends’ kids’ parties and watching how easily bored they get. The possibility exists for the rest of the summer and beyond–the opportunity to collaborate this innovative idea along with other traditional aspects of partying.

Multimedia Challenged

IRK! Why is this so difficult? It seems as though my generation is in the middle of every significant innovation. Is it just us? Maybe not. What other aspects of history have we lived through?

Gettin’ it together

So, I’m slowly piecing everything together. I’m trying to get to the point where all I have to do is thread everything together and create a masterpiece. Soon, it will all tie together to represent a full circle: it will be a story told so well (through multimedia) that it doesn’t even matter the topic.

Pictures

So, remember that event I went to a few Saturdays ago? Guess what! I have pictures. I forgot about them. Woohoo! Pictures soonh to come. It’s really a sign that I am far from being caught up with the multimedia world. My digital camera doesn’t have a USB port so I can’t upload them onto this new computer–new as in my seven-year-old computer gave out on me. Good thing. That thing was gigantic!

Bull Riding San Diego, CA

During my search for “bull riding San Diego,” I found an event to be held at the fair. It’s professional bull riding though and not mechanical.

So, I searched “mechanical bull riding San Diego,” and found an event in North Park–well, somewhere on University Avenue. Who knows how many towns that street runs through?   Anyway, so apparently, there is something going on there every Monday. Well, maybe I should try to stop by after the internship. Yay! Photographs! Woohoo!
