For this week, Prez is continuing to promote his book, this week with a radio advert, and promoting his Goodreads page. Here is the link to the post that Prez made on his blog about the radio advert (he also linked to the blog post through Twitter and Facebook).  I made this advert by recording […]

A nice minimalistic daily create, recreate my (rather uneventful) day using a recently released batch of icons. It was fun looking through the various files trying to find what I could use to illustrate moments that happened. With over 700 icons to sor...

Daily Create | What do you do when the bell rings at 3:30 and you just need a creative, inspirational kick in the pants? Internet has been out at the house, and I’m just now having a chance to do… Continue Reading →

For my day with icons I decided to use emojis and to make it on my phone. I did my in order so that it would be easier for you to read. The first emoji was a “tired face” thats because the first thing I did was wake up. The second emoji was two cups […]

  Season 4 – Episodes 5, 6, 7 Notes Episode 5 – “Alliances” Kids sitting around telling zombie stories and scaring each other about Chris Partlow.  They casually identify the caliber of gunfire in the background, and THAT’S the scary part for me. Prez has a sticker system for classroom rewards. Colvin wants to group […]

    This is Bunk’s last set of stars for the week. He made the “And you are…” design assignment. This is the story of Bunk as we know it and all of the things he likes. Facebook  Twitter 2*

For today’s daily create we had to create a story out of icons. This was the Sunday right before I had three tests and two labs. All I did was wake up drink coffee, study, sleep, more coffee, and stay up all night.  

So here is my typical day! – Get up – Get prepared – Eat Breakfast – Brush Teeth – Go to class – Take a nap – Program – Play games and watch Youtube – Go to bed Some things were omitted just to give you a sense of the day. Hope you enjoyed it!

This is Bunk’s second assignment for writing.  He wrote up a report for a case of multiple suicides for work for the police beat assignment. Multiple suicides sweep Baltimore suburbs. Rich children of politicians create suicide pact called 1-800 Cyanide. First death by rope. Suicide after shooting Captain of police. Second death by LSD overdoes […]

Bunk made a wanted poster for McNulty with his typical sarcastic style and posted it on his social media sites. Facebook Twitter   2*

For my second assignment for the two weeks (and my assignment that involves The Wire), I did the Inappropriate Laughter assignment (worth 3 stars). I used this clip from youtube of Stringer’s death in The Wire and this laugh track from freesound.org. I then used iMovie to put the laugh track in the most inappropriate […]

For the Your Favorite Teams Mashup (worth 3 stars), I used  Pittsburgh teams, because I was born and raised a Pittsburgh fan. I used the Steelers, Pirates, and Penguins logos, and this font and of course Photoshop.

Today’s Daily Create – My day in icons (I decided to use emojis instead) This is me getting up for work, taking the train into DC, getting to my office, researching space history, drinking coffee, going home, doing homework, and then the day is over

For my remix assignment I worked long and hard to create this mashup of the Interstellar trailer with Wall-E trailer and movie sound effects overtop. I tried really hard to make them match up and sound good. I played around with irony a lot and gave the remix a dark humor context about the future fate […]

I did the mashup assignment for inappropriate laughter and had some fun with it. I had just watched episode 7 of the Wire and thought this fight scene would definitely be inappropriate to add laughter to, so I had to use it. It was easy to download the video and I found some laughter tracks […]

The cop breaking Donut’s fingers might be one of the worst things I’ve seen on this show. Everyone in this shot is wearing the same shade of tan. also, the way Poot’s hat is worn and folded, it looks a bit like Peter Pan, which sort of suggests that these … Continue reading

To ” The one who got away”  there three steps to not get caught. Step one you should eat eel sushi.  Eel Sushi  gives you powers to be invisible. I am pretty sure that you don’t want to get caught so the eel sushi that you eat the easier it will be for you. Step […]

I like this shot with both of the doors open and Omar and Bunk getting in the car at almost the same time. The overhead shot gives it a surveillance feel to it as well. This is a really well staged shot. You can see everyone in the scene and … Continue reading

Since this blog is all about art in form of another, I decided to use today’s daily create to illustrate another form, The Art of War. I used a quote by Sun Tzu that I think applies well not just in warcraft, but in any kind of mindset. I just carefully used the paintbrush tool […]

A quote that really matters. Just taking my shot at today’s TDC, hope you liked it!

Carcetti looks so tiny and silly next to these three big, bulky guys. He seemed so out of his element and everything he had to say seemed very pointless and obvious. I love the juxtaposition of these shots. Maybe I’m just a sucker for these graveyard shots, but I love … Continue reading

I had a bit of fun with the 10-second mashup assignment. I just recently got a record player and downloaded a lot of new/old music to my iTunes, so these are a few of my favorite songs right now. I couldn’t get rid of the last second because every second was necessary to show off […]

For my second Remix Mashup I chose “A Changing Character” for 4 1/2 stars. I chose Drew Barrymore because she has an extensive portfolio of work, making it simple to obtain a variety of clips to choose from. I used IMDB to remind myself of lifetime work in the movie industry and gathered my choices […]

For my first Remix Mash I took a dig at what Marlo’s gangsta would truly look like in the absence of Chris, his muscle sidekick! For this creation I mashed a scene from Ice Cube’s Next Friday and mixed it into the poker scene from Season 4 Episode 4 of The Wire. The final result […]

For this Daily Create we have to help Rodin’s “The Thinker” devise a scheme to win against Batman.  The poor guy is naked and Batman has that utility belt with all the cool gadgets, a neoprene suit, and a cape.  No wonder he has been defeated many times.  It’s all about the costume if you’re […]

For my first TDC of week 13 I added to the Thinker’s Plan. Never combating Batman I am forced to rethink my strategy, my brilliant mind conceives the thought that the Batmobile must be where my problems stem. What a fascinating ambush if I can just obtain control of his treasured vehicle it is after […]

            In the perfect day, I would wake up early.   I would wake up my son, Ziggy. I’d get him ready for school and take him to the bus stop. That’s his best friend Sarah.   Then I’d go to work. I love my job, but lately there have […]

Today’s daily create was about the thinker’s plan. I am constantly thinking about my three exams coming up, but all I can really think of is break and some home cooked food! That is what will be getting me through till Tuesday evening. November 21st  I will get through Monday and Tuesday where I have three tests and two labs,

For this remix assignment, I had to create a PowerPoint presentation that sucked. So of course I had to make a PowerPoint about DS106. The irony of a crappy PowerPoint in a digital storytelling class is hilarious. I could not figure out how to embed the PowerPoint on this, but here is the link! To […]

The first daily create i decided to do was “Make a Shoefie for Howard”. Now, must of you might be thinking “Shoefie?” does such a word exist? Apparently it does. I assumed i would have to take a picture of my shoes. I have so many pairs. Would i take this moment to pick my […]
