So I finished up all the extra stuff I had to to for the class this week.  The only real work I have left to do is to make a few more comments and maybe update my final project if I get some good feedback.  I didn’t see a whole lot of project posts to … Continue reading The Final Summary

So, I was screwing around on the internet the other day, and I found this video Just some crazy crackhead right? That’s what I thought too, but I had some time, so I started googling. It turns out, this guy actually went missing. I found this in a public records archive from around the date … Continue reading The Legend of Spooksy: Part 1

  I wanted to do this one because it was one of the first assignments I did for the class, and it didn’t turn out great.  I hadn’t learned paint.NET yet, so I did it in ms paint.  Looking back it seems like such an easy assignment, and I think it would have been a … Continue reading Mocking Up A Newsweek Cover (VisualTutorials737)

I chose this assignment because in looking at the instructions, it seemed a bit rigid, so I wanted to offer some alternatives.  I like the idea of several versions of yourself sitting in an office interviewing each other, but why can’t they be in space?  Or on vacation?  I took three different generations of myself … Continue reading How To: Multiply Thyself (VisualTutorials943)

So here it is, the time we’ve all been waiting for: The final project.  I spent this week focusing on script writing, music composition, and story layout.  I am writing an original song to serve as the sound track for my final project.  The song’s length will roughly correlate with the time it takes to … Continue reading A Framework of Terror

This case… IS SHOWED Get Out of My Dreams And Into My Showcase

Hello folks, Spooksy here.  This week I’m bringing you five more cats the government doesn’t want you to pet.  I think?  Something like that.  ANyway, this first piece is a movie mashup poster between divergent and the hunger games: The Divergent Games.  I think this a great movie poster because if you hung this in … Continue reading This Case… IS SHOWED.

The Grass Was Green The Sky Was Blue, The End. Is That Your Final Answer?

Take any picture you want, and describe it as vividly as possible.  Don’t show us the actually image until the end, and don’t embed the picture directly. The path was narrow and winding, yet pleasantly smooth to walk on.  It’s cool gray tone juxtaposed the trees that hung over it from the hill beside.  There … Continue reading The Grass Was Green The Sky Was Blue, The End.

Interviewing The Nightmare Create An Assignment 2: The Second 1

This week was interesting, I got to practice a lot of the things I learned in previous weeks, and I think it went alright.  I don’t really have a favorite piece this week, because nothing really stuck out as stellar.  I guess that’s to be expected when you’re “mashing up” a bunch of new skills … Continue reading Sum Up

This assignment should be worth waaaay more than 3.5 stars!  It’s tough to get the words and mouth movements to sync up!  I thought about using a cartoon, because they use the same five or six generic mouth positions for everything to make it easier for people to talk over, but that seemed a little … Continue reading Game Of Spooksy (MashupAssignments544 3.5 Stars)

Have you ever submitted a daily create and then realized the perfect thing you should have done or said for it?  What about learning a new trick on a piece of software that would have made it exponentially better?  Take one of your past daily creates and give it the treatment it deserves. Original Submission … Continue reading Is That Your Final Answer? (Create A Daily Create)

I had originally wanted to do ET coming out of one of the spaceships from independence day, but I couldn’t find the right images to make it work.  I saw that a lot of folks were doing Star Wars, and I know they have another movie coming out soon, so I figured the stock photos … Continue reading Star Wars Attacks!

I chose to mash up scenes of Leonidas from the movie 300 that made him look like a jerk.  I re-watched the movie again recently, and I noticed that Leonidas was a very one dimensional character.  He has no flaws, he never does anything wrong or questionable, he’s just a mans man, a good husband, … Continue reading Leonidas Is A Jerk (Mashup Assignments1520 3 Stars)

In this assignment I’m supposed to onion-ize an article, then for the remix, add a sidekick. Original Article A local church group today in association with Spooksy announced a win for families of faith with children in the school system.  The victory comes from a decision made to allow for a Muslim holiday to warrant … Continue reading A Victory For Church And Spooksy (Remix WritingAssignments1198)

For this assignment you are supposed to talk about your favorite assignment from DS106.  For this remix, you’re supposed to play that assignment backwards. Original Assignment My favorite assignment for DS106 was one of the assignments I created for the class (yes, I am very narcissistic).  This assignment was a mashup assignment where you take … Continue reading XimeR esreveR A edaM I(Remixed WritingAssignments554)

This assignment in pretty simple, yet very powerful.  Mash-up your own work!  Take at least 3 things you’ve done this semester, and combine them together to make one cohesive things.  For example:  I took all my host character work related the his haunted mansion, and turned it into a single piece.  It’s a poem, read … Continue reading Assignment Tutorial 2: The Second 1

So apparently I made some things this week people really liked.  Got a few re-tweets and mentions on things, which always makes me feel good.  I stumbled a bit this week as well.  In particular, I did one assignment completely wrong, but it turned out really well, so I dunno whether to call that a … Continue reading A Very Spookstacular Summary

The long awaited Spooksography.  I want to keep Spooksy a bit mysterious, so I kept this pretty light.  From the beginning I had in mind a picture of a baby eating himself, because that’s just so Spooksy.  I wanted to touch on some of the parts about Spooksy that I wrote up when I initially … Continue reading Spooksography (VideoAssignments1847 4 Stars)

When I started writing the script for this assignment, I was having a conversation with myself, like the assignment intended.  When thinking about the challenges associated with the filming I said to myself, it would be easier if I had my girlfriend read one part, why didn’t I think of that before?  I wrote the … Continue reading Spooksy Goes To The Bathroom (VideoAssignments1159 5 Stars)

So I did a few new things with this video, I used Open Broadcast Software to record an active computer window (free program, easy to use, would highly recommend), and I added a title and did narration in movie maker.  The title was super easy, I’ll probably use that again, unless I decided to create … Continue reading Cooking Children With Spooksy (VideoAssignments212 2 Stars)

I liked this assignment because it was right up the alley of everything I’ve done previously with video editing, which is editing competitive game footage of myself into montages with musical accompaniment.  This video is one of the first ever videos I made, and I’ve learned a lot from the mistakes I made making it.  … Continue reading The Road to 110 (VideoAssignments1516 5 Stars)
