I would say more, but that’s pretty much it right there. This has been an awesome, I hope to be around more in the future.…

I really loved that Claire recognized the similar aesthetic features between the pig nurses and the Seuss Universe. They look as if they mesh so well together.

This was my favorite assignment that Andrew completed this semester. I loved the contrast between the culture of gaming and the stuffy, snotty …

This tutorial isn’t really about the subject matter, just a way to make a collage for the assignment. I will be using Picasa.

This is what the program looks like when you boot it up. You can go to create and then collage and it will bring you to this …

This assignment can easily be completed in Photoshop.

After you choose your images, load them into the program.

First you need to change the original color image to black and white. Go to Image, Adjustments, Hue and Saturation

Move your saturation down to zero

On the …

I was having a really difficult time thinking of a phrase or theme to super cut in one of my favorite shows, which is hilarious because as soon as I decided on this one it was relatively simple to find examples of Frasier screaming at his brother, Niles. This was …

For this assignment, I thought it would be fun to make a video collage of some of the projects I had the most fun doing. I felt kinda nostalgic looking over everything and seeing how much work I did for this class. It’ll be nice to enjoy the rest …

For this assignment, I wanted to show case the growth of Wesley Crusher from Star Trek: The Next Generation (portrayed by Wil Wheaton) as he is really the only person who ages in the show and Patrick Stewart has looked the same for 30 years.

He’s a vampire.

Anyway, …

For the second half of the week, we were to complete 15 stars worth of video assigments. I feel like I say this every week, but I had the most trouble with this one! The best thing I learned out of all of it was definitely the YouTube Editor. So …

Okay, so this is actually an 11 second film, but it was hard to edit the words of two little girls. This was probably my favorite project yet, just because I believe my nieces to be the most adorable creatures on the planet. For this, they “reenacted” a clip from …

For this assignment, I attempted to turn a musical scene from Mulan into a talkie. It was really easy for my new found tool, YouTube Editor. All I had to do was find a fitting song, and cut the clips in Mpeg Streamline to get the cuts I wanted.…

For this assignment, I decided to take a modern issue (GMO Wheat) and tried to make it feel vintage and a little corny. For this, I used Mpeg Streamclip to cut up the clips and put them together how I wanted them. Then I uploaded them to YouTube and …

I’ve learned quite a bit about the technique of film and video so far this week. At times, it was a bit complicated, and I felt like I was back …

One assignment that really caught my eye was The Vintage Educational Video. I think these things always have a lot of potential and I love their corny voices. I’m going to use the current controversy of Genetically Modified Wheat as my topic. I have a few materials, many of …

I really enjoyed reading over the genres listed in the google doc, mostly because of how unique they are. Usually, when reading about film, one would see a slew of common and familiar genre titles. These, I feel, are aimed more at the audience of the internet, or Youtube, rather …

It actually wasn’t too difficult to find a little bit of information of the Twilight Zone episode “Night Call”. This isn’t too surprising as this series originally aired during a very turbulent time in history and in itself was ground breaking.

“Night Call” was set to air on November 22nd, …

The camera work from the get go brings up many negative connotations. In the opening sequence, a wheel chair is positioned to the left of the screen in the lower half of the frame. Ms. Keene then appears and adjusts to her right, towards the telephone and openly confronts the …

Whenever I summarize the episodes one by one, I find it hard to materialize something to say. I think week by week however, it is much easier to talk about the pod casts, what they consist of, and what we have learned from them. I thought that they were longer …

Last week, I attempted to mash up The Twilight Zone episode “Time Enough At Last” and The Venture Brothers here. This time around, I decided to mix it up a bit and make it a little more fun. I was originally going to include a remix of an adventure …
