Sorry, I was too busy taking care of my sick fish to do my daily create #ds106 #dailycreate #tdc1534 — Jenna Steele (@jsteele_ds106) March 22, 2016

At the start of the week I was going to just go ahead and do the video assignments because I had so much going on that I didn’t think I would have time for a group project but after Tierra reached out through email, and all our success with the radio show I decided to … Continue reading College is a Rodeo

This week really got to me. I started off the week early by planning out what I wanted to complete each day, but family emergencies forced me to have to work on my work all within the last two days. My Thursday and Friday basically consisted of class and homework. Literally.  Below I have linked […]

This week we had to read upon various articles, as well as watch clips which analyze different films. When I first saw the assignment details, I thought it was going to take forever, but in reality, it did not. I first read all required text and watched films. I took notes so that I could […]

I really enjoyed completing this assignment. When I first saw essay, I dreaded the thought of having to write an actual essay but once I saw the actual assignment I was excited to complete it!

This week we were assigned to complete 10 stars worth of video assignments. I have linked them both below with a little description. The first one I completed required I create a product commercial.

For the mandatory video assignment, I decided to complete “What’s the Weather in your Neck of the Woods?” starring my dog as a wild beast and I as the the news reporter. I first scripted what I wanted to say. Then I got my boyfriend to hold the camera for me while I spoke. During […]

In this assignment we had to spoil a movie by making a short video. This entailed finding all the major scenes relevant to

For this assignment, I had to make a 3-5 minute movie trailer formatted the same way as movie trailers from the silent era

This week I unfortunately put things to the very last minute, so I didn’t really enjoy this week as much. I started with the daily creates and thought the ones I picked out were pretty simple. Then we had to choose to do one of the 4 assignment banks. I chose to do my favorite activity and … Continue reading "Weekly Summary"

We were supposed to apply all the readings and videos through an essay. I think what I learned the most is that there are more to videos than just the picture we are seeing. In the good, the bad, and the ugly, there is a scene where the guys are just having a face off. … Continue reading "What i’ve learned"

This video assignment asks you to take a scene from a movie and make the characters sound like chipmunks. I went with the ending soliloquy from Blade Runner, a scene that’s very powerful normally, just to see what it was like chipmunkified. I originally wanted to go with the “Do you feel lucky?” speech from … Continue reading Video Assignment – Chipmunk Style

The serious scene I chose was the Raptor in the Kitchen scene from Jurassic Park, and I dubbed it with the song Yakety Sax, … Continue reading Video Assignment – Why So Serious?

This week we did an abrupt switch from audio to video. There are a lot of thing in common though with audio and video which made the week easier. I started off the week by first doing daily creates. I did the daily create on 1/22 where you had to use etch-a-sketch to make a dailycreate. […]

My last big assignment of the week was to do a video essay. As you can tell- I was really putting this off. I consider myself… well not very tech savvy and I knew creating this video essay would be challenging. I decided to go with the movie No Room to Die. It was a […]

So this week was full of new things. I have never ever looked at video like we were assigned to

I used … Continue reading Video Essay: Talkin’ Bout Django →
