Worked very intensely with my machinima for Digital Anthropology x: On Thursday I had a Zoom meeting with my classmate R, and on Saturday I recorded the last two voices. Today I experimented with macro photography, recorded narration and started a new cut based on a new approach.
We had Theory & History Unit 8-9 on Friday.
