Urban Landscape Project



The past few weeks I've spent learning how to edit and produce a short video with pictures that I have taken around my hometown. With the help of Flikr and Animoto I was able to upload, edit, and make this short 30 second clip that I've embedded onto this page. This little project was my first time using both of these programs, but I think it turned out pretty good. I've used other forms of editing and video production before, like Premier Pro, so I'm not completely new to the whole idea. The process was super easy to follow and I would definitely recommend both programs. They're user friendly and make working on a project a breeze.

About Me

Hi, I'm Taylor. I'm a senior at the University of Toledo, and as you might be able to figure out from the name of this blog, I'm a workout enthusiast. I've been an athlete my whole life. I played softball and basketball year-round on travel teams since the age of 8. Some kids loved playing video games and I loved playing sports. It's pretty much always been the main focus of my life, whether I was playing sports or talking about them. Since my competing days are over, I've been forced to find out what to do with my free time and how to satisfy my need to feel like a part of a team and get exercise. That led me to find my two new favorite hobbies: full body workouts and hockey. Hockey has become my getaway and escape for 4 years now. The cardio involved is unlike anything I've ever done and I've made so many great friends from playing. My team (pictured above, I'm in the dead center) is like a family and we've won back to back championships in ...

Daily workout vlog

I thought it might be kind of cool to switch it up a bit and do a vlog showing one of my workouts. I kind of explain why I do what I do in the video along with a little bit of information about full body workouts. Enjoy!

Mashup Videos Are A Fun Challenge

My Digital Media class this semester has been full of exercises that have been an absolute blast to do and make. The last assignment was to compose a small piece of music using online software. This week, we were to create a mashup video of any public domain video we could find, include our music, and make a coherent video. Why my geeky self has never thought to do this on my own before, I will never know. I actually ended up making a couple of mashup videos throughout the two weeks that we were able to work on this. I've done small bits of editing in the past with iMovie for POV videos while I played hockey, but this was taking it to a whole other level. I ended up deciding to create a mashup of Game of Thrones and Star Wars. I'm a huge fan of each series so it made it super easy to pick out a focus for the video. Finding content was a little bit harder just because both franchises are creating content. Not much of it has been added to the public domain. I used archive.org...
