Well it’s the end of the ds106 season and I have to say that I am certainly the princess of ds106.
So to begin this post I am going to start with a mathematical proof.
Karissa is the princess of ds106
ds106 is 4 life
Thus, Karissa is a princess …
Looking back my reflection from week 3 about what digital storytelling is I agreed with a lot of things that I had said earlier, but I realized the digital storytelling is so much more. It’s a community that I never thought I would be a part of. I think the …
I guess I should say oh what a morning. I pulled an all-nighter in order to finish my final project, but it was from Monday to Tuesday, so it wasn’t due to procrastination. I just simply wanted to get it done and was on a roll and I am not …
Hello to my fellow ds106 readers. Today you are in store for a great story telling experience, my final project.
Once upon a time there was a princess named Ariel. She was just 16 years old and was a very curious child who always wanted to explore the world around …
Yes, the end is almost near for me. Especially since I just finished making my last media portion of my final project, so I just have to tell the story and put it all together, which shouldn’t be too hard since I know this story back and forth since I …
For my next assignment for my final project, I created a new assignment (yet again) which calls for creating an invitation to an event. I’m surprised that this wasn’t a design assignment already, but it doesn’t hurt to make a new one.
*I suggest reading this post after you read …
While watching The Little Mermaid to do research for my final project (life is so hard, right?) I really really wanted to do this idea. I wanted to create an advertisement for Flotsam and Jetsam Private Eyes. Why? Because I can. I just really thought the whole idea of it …
I am almost always on Twitter, it’s actually unhealthy. However, when it comes to creating social media for famous or fictional characters, the Twitter tool is very lacking since it only allows one tweet at a time (I mean I tweet one time per 30 minutes). The facebook tool, while …
I am six feet tall, and don’t get me wrong I love it. However, the princesses at Disney World have a height maximum, and being 6 feet tall means that I am way over the max. The day I found that out my heart shattered. I was so upset. However, …
The secret to my beautiful hair? The dinglehopper. Seriously, it works so well!!
Don’t know what a dinglehopper is? Well here is an advertisement for it that you may see on a normal basis:
Tricked you! You thought it’d be a real advertisement. Nope, believe it or not I made …
YAY almost done with the semester (but I will certainly miss ds106). This is one of the last weekly summaries that I have to write up, so it’s a bit sad, but exciting at the same time.
These past two weeks were really jammed with so many different things to …
Those three words pretty much haunt every geometry student at some point in their life. A square is always a rectangle, but a rectangle is sometimes a square? How can that be? It’s all about the properties. Quadrilaterals share a lot of different properties, but there also are a lot …
I really hate reflection posts. I have no idea why, maybe it’s because we aren’t creating anything fun for me to show off my princess skills for. I guess I just am too proud of my work all of the time. However I did really enjoy the different clips that …
Yes it is true, I have spent two full summers working in the movie theater and I never have had a problem with popcorn. In fact, I love it. Sure I spent one day sitting in the movie theater until 3 in the morning popping popcorn, but it didn’t matter …
Man let me tell you that I certainly do not miss the daily creates. Like at all. Something that we had to do throughout the semester was submit two different ideas for Daily Creates. One of which of mine got published!
I decided that one of my daily creates was …
Gosh it seems like all that I want is to go to the beach. Probably because I am a total Jersey girl, and I am constantly craving the beach at all seasons. But that is besides the point. This assignment that I created is all about improving vocabulary. As a …
Seriously, this title is perfect for the remix assignment that I ended up with. The original assignment was to photograph a Barbie partaking in 1 or more of the seven deadly sins (which is genius and I have no idea why I didn’t do that assignment earlier this semester) and …
Okay, maybe not a master but still. Teaching is what I like doing, so of course doing tutorials just seemed natural for me. I really enjoy using the Print Screen button on my computer, so tutorials is seriously perfect for me. It’s a shame that I learned about screencasts in …
It’s true, I thought when I was creating a theme for my blog for this class, I thought I would be known as that girl who wishes she was a princess (which is still completely accurate). However, I am really glad to see that there are so many other Disney …
Not going to lie, I’m not sure why I decided to tweet that. But it just seemed appropriate. I guess it’s because that’s how I felt when originally working on my radio show with my group and meeting for the first time in person. The group was using twitter in …
Probably the best way to describe me is wild. I’m not talking girls gone wild or something like that (especially since my parents and professors are the the only people who read this), but it is certainly me. I have a very unique personality to me and I can pull …
Yes I just had this realization, and it probably has been way too late for this, but I guess I could call this my princess diary. I mean I am a princess, and I am writing. It’s just a very public diary that I tweet about a lot, typical diary …
While reading the requirements for the final assignment, I was so overwhelmed with all of the possibilities that I had. Which princess would I choose? The possibilities are endless. Cinderella has been over done with this blog, so I wanted to go for a princess that I haven’t really …
Yeah, you heard me. I wish that I had a great man voice. It would have really come in handy when it was time for making the five star vintage educational video assignment that I decided to take on this week. It was the planning that really helped to put …
This week definitely had an overall feeling of me not really loving Windows Movie Maker, at all. Seriously it was awful. The whole transitioning from one thing to the next made my head spin. The typical process was to get a video from YouTube, download it to an mp4 using …
Probably one of my all time favorite Disney lines is that title. Who doesn’t love a good forced pun being said by the odd muse out? But seriously, Hercules is super dreamy. I mean who doesn’t love a modest super hero son of a god? Come on, it’s not even …
So when looking at different assignments that I could do head past two weeks I came across the four star assignment of watching a movie with the stereo on, which is actually something that I have certainly done before. I guess I have just seen every Disney movie so many …
Finally it all gets put together! A few weeks ago (it seriously seems like an eternity ago) we had to create our own sound effects for a Charlie Chaplin video, but we had to do it Foley style. Watching the video now, I was very glad that I was born …
Welcome to the world of video, it certainly is an interesting one at that. While looking at all of the video assignments, the first one that really stood out to me was the three star Once Archetype, Five Seconds. The reason I was so captivated by this was because …
So the week is finally over, and what a long week it has been at that.
Luckily for me, procrastination did not end up being my enemy as it is almost 9 and I am onto the weekly summary, but I know not to procrastinate next week. Going into this …
