Mashup week was actually one of the simpler weeks for me. I expected it to be difficult since this involved using more than one media and mixing them together. However, these assignments didn’t take me very long to do and I feel I got very good results. When I first looked at the week 13 and 14 assignment page I was very overwhelmed and confused. I wasn’t quite sure what I was getting into for this week. But, this could have been due to the anticipation of Thanksgiving Break. I decided to take a chance and not do any of this work until after break (something I have never done in this class). It turned out fine! This was a good week to do that due to the simpleness of assignments.
I started the week with the Remix this blog assignment. I needed to know what I was heading into for the week. The references and examples explaining remix and the problems you might face with remixing really set the mood for the week.
I then started with the Mashup Assignments. I decided to use the recycled media in the Recycle the media assignment. I explain how I used the different media in my blog post about it. This assignment was 3 stars.
I then skipped around a bit and decided to head into remixing an assignment. I went through a few remixes until I got one that I thought would be fun! I remixed a game cover into a boring powerpoint presentation.
I then finished up the week finishing up my mashup assignments with What color is your world? (2 stars) and the Consumer Mashup (2 stars).
