assignments:
assignment 1: "identity slides" 22-9-2014 | mark: 9.7
For this assignment we had to pick an artist, and choose three artworks to describe and give our opinion on. I chose for the artist that goes by the name of "banksy", an artist that keeps his real identity anonymous and spreads his opinion using graffiti. His unkwown identity made the assignment a bit harder, but I have finished my assignment in time anyway. The three artworks that I chose to describe were: "Napalm", "Mona Lisa With A Rocket Launcher" and "The Flower Thrower".
ASSIGNMENT 2: "film review" 6-10-2014 | mark: 7.9
For this assignment we had pick a film, watch it, and wright a review about it. I chose for the film "The Wolf of Wall Street". In the review I described the movie in short as:
The film, “The Wolf of Wall Street”, is a 180 minutes long biography about Jordan Belfort (depicted by Leonardo DiCaprio) and his over-the-top lifestyle as a stock-broker. The piece was directed by Martin Scorsese and first premiered on the 17th of November 2013 in the magnificent city of New York. Some actors besides Leonardo DiCaprio you might know are: Jonah Hill, Margot Robbie and Matthew McConaughey. The film is based on the auto-biography written by Jordan Belfort himself.

ASSIGNMENT 3: "Tableau vivant" 10-11-2014 | MARK: 10!
For this assignment, we had to pick a painting, film still or picture and replicate it with yourself (or a classmate) as replacing actor. I did this assignment together with Hassan. I photographed and edited his tableau vivant, and he photographed mine. I edited my tableau vivant myself, as well.
Hassan chose for the film cover of 'A hounted house 2'. I chose for a still from the film 'Scarface'. Here are the original pictures:

ASSIGNMENT 4: "Music Review" 15-12-2014 | MARK: 10!
This assignment is much like the film review assignment yet I found it remarkably more challenging, for this assignment music has to be visualized to make sense of the sensory, associative and musical level. Contrary to film where the piece is already visualized for you. Though the assignment was rather imposing, it was very enoyable to make.
I chose to write my review on the song Ill mind of Hopsin 7 (by Hopsin, obviously). A confronting song dealing with the most posed questions in the whole of humankind. It mostly deals with the following question: Is there a god?

Assignment 5: "Film"
Frigid is an urban tale about the eminent clash between the good and the bad taking place in the psyche of a sole individual. They meet each other at one occasion in the film. Why they meet is unclear to the viewer, though the ending of the film gives some clearance.
Beneath is a little teaser I have made using Adobe After Effects cs6. It took me about 3 hours to make. Click the blue button underneath the teaser for the film itself, more information, bloopers, deleted scenes and a making of!

Assignment 6: "what does the word say?"
"Haribo macht Kinder froh, und Erwachsene ebenso!"

Assignment 7: "ad campaign"
Acid is a healthy soft drink. But it is not just another lemonade, it is a way of life. Our target group are youngsters. They are dressed up to the latest trends of fashion, they are politically involved, they care about environment and they aim for a better world. They tend to buy at smaller shops, biological stores and via internet. They identify themselves with big personalities in history who were able to create change. They like travelling, because of experiences and getting to know other cultures and people. They travel light, they are couch surfers and they want to spend, but only on products that enrich their life.They eat and drink healthy, sometimes alcohol but never too much, biological food and if it comes to our product, they want a soft drink only containing healthy ingredients and not the Cola's and Fanta’s of this society full of hidden acid.
Assignment 8: "Research report"
Colour. The most intriguing phenomenon us humans are able to observe, yet colour is just a mere illusion. We all know that animals perceive colours differently, like dogs who are only able to perceive a selection of colours, but we assume us humans to all have the same vision. But how do we know for sure that we indeed do discern colours the same way?
We use the same words to describe colours, yes, but we can never be sure how the individual sees the colour described by the word in reality. Or can we?
