Though my project is hockey related, again, the message and symbolism of it spreads out to a much broader spectrum. After a few weeks of difficult training that Navy Seals endure, Navy Seal Admiral William H. McRaven’s Seal class that originally started with 150 men was now down to 42. With six boat crews of seven men each, the best boat crew was made up of not the tallest guys that McRaven was a part of but the smallest guys, the “munchkin crew.” The “munchkin crew” consisted of a very diverse group of individuals and no one was over 5’5”. The “munchkin crew” out-paddled, out-ran, and out-swam all of the other boat crews. All of the other boat crews had big men and would always tease the “munchkin crew’s” tiny little flippers the munchkins used. But, it was the little guys who always had the last laugh. Nothing matters but your will to succeed. Measure a person by the size of their heart, not by the size of their flipper.

My project involves three figurines: two large and one small. Each figurine is chasing after a puck with the smallest figurine being the last one to tag along. Throughout the chase the smallest figure is always in last until the end. At the end, the large figurines get themselves into a tangle and it’s the smallest figurine who ends up with the puck at the end and who ends up with the final laugh.

    I like how you used the filter as a "cartoon look alike" animation. I thought the story was well portrayed as well. Nice work.

    HDMH. Height Doesn't Measure Heart. I like the message behind your video. I like how it is very relatable to multiple people in no matter what they are going through. The effects behind this video were nice. Good job

            I decided to use my favorite hockey team, the Washington Capitals’ logo. Though the Capitals have two logos, one being the name of the team while the other being the symbol of the city where the team is located, I decided to go for the symbol rather than a word/name. The logo of the city of Washington DC, also being the logo of the United States itself since that’s the capital of this nation, is that of an eagle. Instead of the eagle’s normal colors, the color spectrum obviously corresponds to that of the team colors which are red, white and blue, which also, of course, are the colors of the United States. Other than the eagle and the colors, the logo also has a subliminally placed picture of the capital building in DC under the eagle. Like most of my work, a lot of the inspiration comes from the sport of hockey, which, again, is what I based my grid art on. Filling in the colors for the eagle on the workspace wasn’t as hard as outlining the shape because not only did

I was still a little confused on what performance art actually was when completing this assignment. However, I did pay attention to at least two of the things performance art seemed to consist of which is that of an action or activity done out of the ordinary as well as carrying with it some kind of underlying meaning. As with most of the other projects, I chose to base my performance off of what I am very passionate about which is hockey. With the topic of hockey combining that with something unexpected, I replaced the puck with an orange, and replaced the environment and scenery of ice with that of downtown, Tampa. For one thing, hockey is not played with an orange, and second, hockey is not played in the middle of a city let alone with random people or strangers. The meaning is just to simply expect the unexpected; no one necessarily knows what is supposed to happen in the near future, so preparation for anything in general is vital in terms of taking caution. This assignment de
