    project ideas round two

    by
    I really liked Kendra’s idea of making a podcast about the different areas of creativity you can develop in ds106. I think it would be interesting to talk through some of the skills learned and medias we used in class, and this would be a great way to share with prospective students what they can […]

In this class, we’ve had to use a lot of softwares to complete many assignments, so pick one that you love using and make a quick video for it. This way, other DS106 students in […]

    Daily Create 10/26

    by
    I’m not a really good person to turn to when you need encouragement because 9/10 it will be extremely sarcastic and/or embarrassing. I felt like this is a good representation of what would happen if I was asked to root for someone. Just imagine a really awkward “Yay” and that’s me.

    Trailer for Short Film

    by
    Check it out! Here is my trailer for my short film that I am making called Fall into Fall. It’s all about….you guessed it, Fall! Enjoy! Breakdown: I decided to make a short film about Fall. I have been filming scenic Fall shots in DC and Virginia. I created this trailer with an awesome voiceover from Taylor Swift talking all things Fall.

    Video Essay

    by
    For this assignment we have been assigned give a video essay on a scene from a film. It can be any scene of our choosing. I chose a terrific montage scene that pretty much takes place in one location. The scene is from the movie About Time. It is towards the beginning of the film and we are watching their relationship grow in this scene. The music accompanying it makes it even better. I love it! Check it out right … Continue reading "Video Essay"

    video essay

    by
    Here is my video essay! I used a scene from the Titanic. I used screencast-o-matic.com to make this video, which is free and not too complicated to learn how to use. It was interesting to try to find some of the techniques in this scene.

    Weekly Summary

    by
    In this week of ds106, I have found it to be the most challenging so far. Like I thought sound engineering was hard enough but video editing?? Now that is a challenge in itself but it was nevertheless an enjoyable experience. There are not many classes where I walk away feeling like I truly learned …
