For my DS-106 project, I created a Star Wars–inspired narrative that imagines a secret son of Luke Skywalker named Ethan Sky. I explored why Luke isolated himself on the island and reimagined his final days as an act of protection rather than retreat. From this idea, I developed visuals, audio, and video elements to bring Ethan’s story—and the world of Ticron-1—to life. You can read The Unknown Jedi narrative below.
Using tools like Canva, iMovie, Audacity, and several royalty-free media sites, I designed scenes, created a movie-poster graphic, recorded environmental soundscapes, and produced a video diary. This process taught me how much time and effort goes into digital storytelling—from editing and sound design to layering effects and building a narrative world that feels real.
If you would like to see my process and my Before and After design process you can access it below.
My DS-106 experience began under difficult personal circumstances, but the class pushed me to think creatively, learn new tools, and gain confidence in my design abilities. I even learned how to build and maintain a website from scratch—something I’ve always wanted to do. Despite the challenges, this project showed me the power of storytelling and gave me a new appreciation for content creators everywhere.
Last, but not least, you can read my Final Reflection of the year below.
Enjoy your holidays.
