Lots of index cards in the dirt with leaves strewn all around and tiny branches holding the cards down. Two pens, i'm sorry did you say street magic the book, a bottle of sunscreen, a Nalgeen, and the corner of the camping chair make up the rest of the objects. There should be index cards bent and tented to represent events but we were running out of index cards so we just wrote events on the back of cards. Much fun had by all
For some reason I found an international version of the movie poster in German, but it says “High Crusade” and a bunch of stuff in German. There’s some knights riding a sheep’s skull or something over the earth… idk

A PowerPoint slide breaking down Post-Modernism and using the Dark Knight and Dunkirk movie posters as example of a Post-Modern approach to the orange and blue theme. The conflicted identity of the batman poster and the self-referential horrors of war in the Dunkirk one
A PowerPoint slide breaking down a modernist approach to the blue and orange color theme idea. The movie posters for The Bourne Identity (2002) and Jumper (2007) are used as examples. I had fun talking about how the themes in Bourne Identity are post-modern, even if the design choice on the cover is modernist
A PowerPoint Slide with a picture of a collection of movie posters that all have an orange and blue theme with a title that says "The History of Modernist Movements through Blue and Orange Movie Posters"

A lined notebook page with the title “Layout” a horribly scribbled open looking book in the middle of the page but not centered and bigger on the right side for some reason. “Single factual sentence” on the left page. “List of questions to answer” on the right page. Both text are surrounded by a grey highlighter. To the right of the book scribble is a small legend. An empty space in grey highlighter with an equals sign and then the word “art” after it.
