Today I’m showing my spin on the movie scenes that changed our lives project but you guessed it making it it scenes from animes instead.

    Brain storming for final project

    by
    Well I’ve been thinking about what I would like to do for my site basically since I first joined this class and surprise surprise it’s anime related. Something I don’t normally get to do is have an in-depth discussion on all the animes I’ve seen throughout there years. My thoughts on plot events, character development ...

    Kill me silently baby!

    by
    Hey everyone starting off my week of video with a homage to the silent film era. Now as I previously stated in my pre-production post about this assignment, despite there being many different genres in anime I can probably go ahead and assume there’s a severe lack in the silent film genre. With that being ...

    Traveling with Howl’s Morning Castle

    by
    I never really tried to look into the aesthetics of a movie before, always just went along for the ride to see what happened from start to end. I don’t consider myself to be an artsy person either so I doubly thought I couldn’t analyze a film very well. However after reading some of Roger ...

    Wise words coming to life

    by
    As I mentioned before, I have been looking over the video assignments for a few weeks now and another project that caught my attention was the kinetic typography. These look like a lot of fun to make but so far while actually trying to do the project myself I’ve hit some snags. It just goes ...

    Silent anime

    by
    I’ve actually been looking into some of these video assignments since spring break, and one that peaked my interest most of all was the Return to the Silent Era assignment. Now of course there has been silent film cartoons before but as far as I know there hasn’t been any silent film anime. In anticipation ...

    1. Reflections let us see an alternate world. Capture that world in a photo- While technically not a reflection I still think this picture shows a new world compared to the one I live in. This picture was taken at the Gaylord National Resort during Katsucon 2012. 2. Draw or digitally design a circle. Fill ...

    1. Take a picture of your favorite smell- One of my favorite things about the Winter is you can smell people burning kindling throughout the air. This scent is sort of a confirmation of sorts that Winter has begun and always gets me thinking of snow. 2. It’s February 29. Take a photo of a ...

    My first week as an orphan

    by
    Alright well this has been a crazy week with audio, I might even go as far to say that by the end of this I never want to hear again. Melodramatics aside, my group the orphans (we should really discuss a name change) have been making steady progress with our radio show. Our theme is ...

    Audio Assignment- Sound Effects Story

    by
    In order to try and brighten up the apparently very dark and dreary lives that people seem to have in ds106, I have created a NICE, PEACEFUL and SERENE story for my assignment: This story depicts a man walking peacefully through the woods to go fishing. Once he arrives at the lake, he takes a ...

    1. Say your name backwards- Pmurc Relyt Divad would be my full name backwards (David Tyler Crump). Rather than just awkwardly saying this out loud I decided to give audacity a trial run to see what it was capable of, by using it to reverse me just saying my name normally.   2. Take a ...

    Picking myself up with Radiolab

    by
    The radio show I have chosen to listen to was Falling broadcasted by radiolab http://www.radiolab.org/2010/sep/20/. The hosts explored the various means of how people fall throughout their lives, both in the literal and figurative sense.

    Audio Assignment- Make Your Own Ringtone

    by
    As some of you may have noticed I’ve been using Japanese anime as my theme for my blog and I’m continuing this by making my own ringtone. An aspect that always seems humorous to people no matter who you are is when foreign people try to speak English. Anime is of course no exception to ...

    Design Assignment- Design an Invoice

    by
    To be honest this sounded like a really boring assignment, make a bill for a fictional character? Not exactly the top thing I think I’d have fun making. However when I started thinking if there were some anime characters who ever built up an unusual bill I instantly thought of Akira Takizawa from Eden of ...

    Visual Assignment- Reimagined Road Signs

    by
    For my final visual assignment I decided to do the reimagined road signs. I have to say this one really strained my creativity as well as my patience on various discarded ideas. 1.

    This is for anyone out there who would still think it be cool to be a ninja with your orange jumpsuits, and giant toad summoning magic, and your constant confirmation of whether or not we believe i-… sorry personal rant there. Anyways for those of you unfamiliar with demotivational posters, they currently lead the internet ...

    For my next feat I will adventure out into the world to find a little piece of myself, there’s no telling what terrains I must brave or what foes I must defeat. Walking a whole 6 minutes from where I take my psychology classes I discovered Tyler House. Not sure exactly what I did to ...
