This week, I completed my final project for DS106. I was really intrigued by the thought of doing a quarantine mashup of some sort. I wanted to stick with our theme of “What is (Y)our story” and tell the stories of my co-workers. We are all at different stages in our lives as far as […]

This mashup was a bit harder than the other assignments this week. I love using the animoji feature on my iPhone to send funny text videos to my friends, but getting JUST the animoji by itself seemed a little bit difficult without sending it to someone. I didn’t want to send my friends a weird […]

For one of my two remix assignments, I chose to do a remix of my Tamagotchi commercial from our radio show. The assignment was to make it into a bad infomercial, and I thought, what better way to that than to make the commercial as annoying as possible? I tried to use sayings that a […]

This was actually super challenging for me since I tend to use “um” a lot when talking, especially giving presentations or something along those lines. I found myself having to record this a few times to get it close to the way I wanted it to sound, and even then it still didn’t sound right. […]
