Re-Brand ‘Em

Re-Brand ‘Em, by Chris Randles, requires you to find a popular company brand and make a remix. I chose the world renowned symbol of Apple, Inc.  Their slogan is “Think Different.” This inspired me to take the assignment one step further, and create a slogan for the DS106 class.  The new slogan is, “Think Different – From Any Other Class You’ve Taken.” The reasoning behind the slogan stems from the amount of creativity required for Digital Storytelling 106 compared to other classes at UMW. This is by far one of the most creatively stimulating classes I’ve had during my 8 semesters here. The assignments for this class and Daily Creates provides a refreshing contrast to the prototypical paper/project/test layout of many of my business classes. Here is the new logo for Apple/DS106:

To make this photo I first went on Google and found a good version of the apple logo. I then used GIMP to color in the apple with the paint bucket function, and then the burn tool to add lighting. I then typed the slogan using the text function in GIMP.
