Six Word Memoir #7

This picture is actually a screenshot from me playing in league of legends (as Rengar, the Pridestalker) and the reason why I used the words “I want to be a legend” is because sometime in the near future I want to make my footprint in the League of Legends community. Whether it’s as a “Pro Player” or analyst or just even as a figure that gives helpful advice to help people become better players and better people. For visual effects I used something called frost to give that flash-forward image that you see people on TV do while they are daydreaming. 

Six Word Memoir #6

Something I always have wanted to do is to randomly break into dance (I’m not 100% sure why, I just do) I would love to just wake up one day and have my own version of that sense from “500 Days of Summer” where Joseph Jordon-Levitt has everyone around dancing along, marching band, and cheesy birds along with any other musical clichés you could think of. For this I used the Budmo Jiggler Font to add that “Big Show” feeling or Musical/Acting impression. I also adjusted the text so it would appear to be on the white background on the stage so it would fit in better and have a more natural feel to it. 

Six Word Memoir #5

 The reason why I used the words that I did was as you probably guessed I those cheesy one-liners the best example being the ones used in the show “CSI Miami” by the character Horatio. And for that reason I toke this picture of me wearing my aviators and added a faded background of Miami, as a little “Easter egg” if you will for anyone that gets the joke. I also purposely separated the text so the person looking at it would have to look at the top, think about for a moment, and then look at the bottom to see the rest of the message. Much like how when people in movies have a brief pause or dramatic pause  between their one-liners.

Six Word Memoir #4

I have always been a quality over quantity kind of guy for my whole entire life. This is one of the few areas of my life I feel comfortable that I have both. I am very blessed to have as many good friends as I do whether it’s some people I meet through playing football, or acting on stage for a show, playing video games with people from all over the world, even simply meeting on a bus for the first day of kindergarten. I tried to use some visual effects like “Orton” to give that nice heartwarming feeling that gives you that idea of togetherness.  

Six Word Memoir #3

The reason I used this picture to talk about family is because it was one of the best pictures I could get that had many multiply members of my family. I wanted to show how different we all looked. For example the 2 people closest to the right are my grandparents and in the middle is my mom standing beside my aunt. I always found it interesting how different my aunt, my mom, and my uncle (not in this picture) looked. Which is always a personal reminder that family really does come in all shapes and sizes. I also added some visual effect to give a nice glow to it. Like those Christmas cards you see around the holidays that give you that merry feeling. 

Six Word Memoir #2

Whenever I think about the past, I think about all the choices that I made to become the person I am today. And what I always remember that the first step was always the hardest and scariest. Whether it was joining the football team not knowing anybody or even knowing how to play the game, or auditioning for a part in a play, and in some cases starting school in a completely new country. The reason why I toke the picture from the angle I did was because I wanted to stairs to look more intimidating much like the challenges we experience right before we that “first step” Cause the problems we face in life look a lot more difficult when we start at the bottom. I also used a black and white effect to give a more serious tone.  

Six Word Memoir #1

The idea behind me using the phrase “Not one life; but many lives” is that as a gamer. I get to be a completely new person and take on a new persona every time I play a video game whether I am a Master Assassin, an elite soldier or even a champion on the fields of justice. Which not only gives this feeling of escapism from my daily life, it lets me see the world in a different perspective that I may never had though about before. I didn't really use any special effect or editing (besides some colour correction and cropping) for this picture because I felt anything I added would take too much attention from the words/messages I was giving.
