Culture Mission (Apple Screen Time)

Personal Data Tracking 

Tracking My Apple Screen Time 

During this mission I decided to track my apple screen time. This was easy to do and very interesting.
After finding my Apple Screen Time in settings I could clearly see how long I was using my apps for swell as the number of notifications I was getting from each app. I decided to take the data and how it in bar charts of my own. I took this data and realised I was using my phone a lot more than I should be. Thankfully this feature allows you to set limits on how long you use each app for. 
I decided it would be a good idea to set a limit on how long I used Snapchat for that week.

It has been almost three weeks since I first started to track my Apple Screen Time and even though the mission is over Ive decided to continue to keep track how how much I am using my phone. I have set more limits on different apps such as Instagram and Twitter. 

I have also educated my mam on how to use Apple Screen Time so she can set limits on how long my little sister uses her iPod for.

Methodology Mission  Image Visualisation Why I chose this? At first I had no idea what image visualisation even meant but I knew it sounded interesting. After reading through the mission briefs on the CDM website this one stood out the most to me. It stood out the most for a number of reasons, the first being that I could really do what I want when it came to this mission . For example I could chose the types of images I would work with aswell as the different tools I would use.  Another thing was that it was up to me how I wanted to display my images and what point I wanted to get across. It was interesting to me that images can mean so many different things just by the way they are shown. I wanted to understand this more and think about things from a different perspective. I wanted to show people that we can think outside the box sometimes and tell or show things in different ways.  I knew the outcome of this mission had to the a video and believed th...

Culture Mission

Personal Data Tracking Why I chose this as my second mission... After reading all the different choices for the culture missions I knew straight away that this was the one I wanted to research more. Before starting this mission I knew absolutely nothing about personal data tracking or even what it meant, but once I started to brainstorm on it I realized it would be a very interesting topic, as well as one that could help your daily life. The first thing I looked at was my phone. I did this to find out what type of data I could find and track using my phone. This was when I decided I would base my part of the mission on data found on your phone. I looked into my settings and found "Apple Screen Time". I chose to keep track of my screen time over one week. I wanted to do this to one, show my class that your phone keeps track of everything you do on it and how long you use it but also, educate myself on how much I use my phone and certain apps.         ...

Creativity Mission

The Art Of The Animated Gif How I went about completing my first mission. This is how I completed my first mission in my Introduction to Digital Media class.  After looking through all the missions and reading what each one consisted of, I decided I wanted to tackle the one on Gifs. It turned out that my classmates Rosie and  Daniel also wanted to do this one, so we formed a group. We started off by each doing our own research. I took the time to look up facts like "who made Gifs?" and "why were they invented?". After each of us had found out the useful information, Daniel decided he wanted to put together the presentation. Another step was creating our own Gifs. Luckily enough Rosie had experience in this. This meant that she could talk me through how to create my own Gifs.  We decided we would pick a theme for the Gifs we were about to create. Halloween was what we chose as it was coming up to Halloween. We spent a few hours creating Gifs on...
