This week was fun to say the least. I met some of my classmates and we all collaborated on our Radio show ideas. We even came up with an entire story. Now the hard part will be putting it all together into and amazing project. I really liked hanging out with them, I cannot wait … Continue reading Digital Journey Week 6

On Tuesday, a flurry of tweeting happened. To get in our group I had to tweet on the #ds106 and #noir106 to see if I could find people that wanted to collaborate with me. I needed to be in a group, so I had to find a few people that wanted to get together. Eventually … Continue reading Radio Show week 1

I went to a winery in Fredericksburg, they were having Casino night, but we did not actually go to that. We did however spend five hours at the winery with my wife’s family. I walked around and took some good photo’s of some cool things in my opinion. I had fun doing it also. I … Continue reading Photo Blitz

This week started strong, I read all about design and because of that I took a few photo’s that I really liked. I was going all around a winery that my wife took me to and taking pictures. I may have looked weird doing it but I was having fun doing it. I never looked … Continue reading Digital Journey week 5

I looked up pictures of Jim Groom from UMW to find a face of Jim Groom. Then I looked up Star Wars characters that would best fit Jim Groom. The closest thing I could find was Obi Wan Kenobi. Once I had the pictures, I had to put them together, well I didn’t know how … Continue reading In a Far Far Galaxy

The movie was longer than the radio show but it was good. I like the character keys, he makes the movie perfect. The setting in Los Angeles with great with what looked like a concert in the back ground when they were on the hollywood sign. Every time he said babe or baby, I kept … Continue reading Double Indemnity

WOW! I really liked that design book. I like when it said you have a responsibility to yourself, the client, and the people that would be seeing the design. Design should be eloquent, timeless, and not sloppy. I honestly did not realize how design was so symmetrical. They put squares on top of a design … Continue reading Design

For the ds 106 radio, I have a different perspective every week. One week could be from the bad guy, another be from the women in distress, and then from the tough guy.

This week was all about sound and how to make it online. I downloaded a lot of different sounds. I read a lot about creating a sound and how to use it to make magic. I created a bumper for the Ds 106 Radio.  I wrote about holly wood and how sound has changed over … Continue reading Digtal Journey Week 4

I just created this for the #ds106radio bumper, it was fun making it.

The sound effects of Hollywood came from the men who worked there. Sound was new and exciting adventure because a lot of it was experimenting with different things. These men came up with different techniques to develop the sounds of Noir Films. Even though people who reviewed these films would call them Melodrama’s because of … Continue reading Melodrama

I watched both opening videos from Touch of Evil and the differences are clear. In the video that was not Orson Wells there was no sound, but I was still waiting for the BOOM. The video kept going even when the couple was near the car. I thought for suspense they would kill off the … Continue reading The difference between Evil and Good

My digital journey started on Monday, doing the first daily create of the week. It was not until I saw Maggie at the digital center on Tuesday till I understood the full range of the DS106 website. I was so proud of myself when I posted my first video to Youtube. I downloaded Flicr to … Continue reading Digital Journey Week 3

In each Noir Film, the characters are gritty and I would say tough. In Killer’s Kiss, the boxer was a washed up boxer is what it seemed, they said he could not win the big one’s and that was never disproved. At the end he fought the girls boss/creep guy after her in a fight … Continue reading Noir Films

My experiences with photography are very limited to my wife taking photos of us. I do not own a camera, I do not take pictures with my phone (unless it is for this class) and I do not enjoy taking photos. Only since owning a iPhone do I now take any photos. I would never … Continue reading PhotoReflection

The Future is here.

This movie has to be one of the greatest movies of all time. I will give you reasons why. First the characters were lovable, all most any character in that movie, you could relate to them. The guy that cannot read, at some point in your life, you could not read. Brooks, he did not … Continue reading Shawshank Redemption

He walks the streets and only talks if he thinks your having a problem. He works for nobody, he controls the streets by killing people that do not understand his point of view.

The story was good, but the title should have been something else. I thought going into this that someone would be dying. The kid went over to ole Anderson’s house and he just sat in the bed. I thought he would get up and do something with his life, but no he sat there. I … Continue reading The Killers who didn’t kill anything

First of all, if Burrs would have treated his lady better, none of this would have happened. If a man thinks calling his women names is the best thing, he is a fool. Instead of saying I am sorry, they throw a party. They invited all of the people they knew and of course the … Continue reading The Party without the Wild

So Frank starts out as a bum, then ends up a bum. He had a lot of luck in this, the Greek hires Frank to be a Mechanic, he gets out of jail for murder, and then is the only one in the car accident that does not die. I cannot believe this guys luck … Continue reading Just being Frank with you

This class has taught me so much already, I have never used, written, or let alone created a blog before. I still do not know if I am using it right or it is linked the way it should be. Technology and the Internet is not a strong point in my life but I wanted … Continue reading Summary Week One
