It is finally hitting me. This is the last week of ds106. What a ride it has been. I had no idea I was going to make it to the end but here I am. It was extremely difficult but at the same time it was really fun. Its a …
I had fun doing this. Eric Dorman and I used audacity for the sounds, hero machine 3 to create the characters and Filmora to put the film together. The story is about our super heroes Mellow Man and Tech and they have to go back in the past and save …
To all of the upcoming students that want to take part in this super ds106 class, I have some advice for you. First, enjoy yourself and the assignments. These assignments that you are tasked with are based off of your own ideas. You should always talk about stuff you love. …
Week 13 is the start of the final projects. I am in a group with Eric Dorman and for our final crisis for the superheroes we made (Tech and Mellow Man), they are going to try to stop a time traveling villain which brings them back to the medieval times. …
This week was all about remixes and mash ups. I preferred the mash ups because it was really fun to put things together that weren’t together in the first place (plus it was a little easier than remixes). It was kind of like an original idea using work that was …
I did not try to make this easy… For this assignment, I hid waldo in the Sistine Chapel. If you can find him, leave a comment! (remix for 2 stars)…
So, as you know, I would fly to class so I am never late but if I were to have a sidekick, who would it be and what would he do? Well, I have come to the conclusions that my sidekick would be Brain Man. He would be able to …
On one side of campus and need to get to the other before your exam starts? Well being able to fly would be nice! I would take to the sky and reach my class in seconds instead of walking through the traffic of people everywhere. (assignment for 4 stars)…

The song is All Night Thing and it is studio recorded by Temple of the dog and mashed with the live version just sang by the lead singer Chris Cornell (RIP). I used the Audacity program to put the two songs together at the right times. Personally, I …
For this assignment, I had trouble finding the right photo editor so I asked my friend and he told me about this app called YouDoodle. Its a real simple app where you can put pictures together and cut out what you need to keep in the photo you are trying …
For this assignment I decided to put my two chillest inspirations in a crazy place. I feel like they could make Mordor a pretty sweet spot. Imagine a Mordor where they allow you to order pizza on YOUR time? How about a bowling alley and some White Russian beverages? Sounds …
This week we made movies where we had to add different themes from what we learned from our previous week. It was fairly simple to make once you get the hang of it and it is a lot of fun. I really like making comical movie and if I had …
I forgot to add my thanks to windows movie maker and audacity so… thank you. For this film ( as mediocre as it is) I tried to use the shot/reverse shot when I am talking to the character like what the Coen brothers do but they do it at …
As Mellow Man wakes up at a leisurely time of 11:45 am, he hears what sounds like a scream. Mellow man takes his long board and flies down the freeway trying to avoid as much LA traffic as possible. While he is going down the road, he notices a lot …
Week 10 in ds106 was a video week. I learned a lot about movies that I did not even know or did not even think about looking for. I always considered myself to be a movie buff but when i watched the videos and learned about the different components of …
This is a quick and easy life hack! Get yiur clothes folded in half the time and continue on with your day. This is one I saw a long time ago but it stuck with me the whole time. I still fold my clothes like this and it …
This was my video essay I did. I used windows movie maker to put it together. The voice over might not be completely matched up because Movie Maker was being a bit difficult when I was trying to make it work. This is a scene from one punch man. …
I feel like every new week i say is the hardest.. Because it actually is! This week in ds106 was very difficult but at the same time a lot of fun. This week my group and I were finally putting together the radio show. We all had our own parts …
Week 7 has been the hardest thus far mainly due to timing. Midterms need to be studied for along with getting this group project together made for one stressful week. Luckily I had a great group of people that work very hard to make sure things are right. We have …
Who knew design played such an important roll on how the reader/listener/watcher felt in a certain moment? What I learned was that the use of negative space in a comic book creates a feeling of emptiness just like it does in movies. It is impressive how they can translate that …
This week was audio week in DS106 and I believe it was the most insightful. Learning about how sound creates a story is incredible. I loved doing the assignments as well. Especially when we had to create a theme song for our superhero. I just happened to have a guitar …

For this assignment we had to create a theme for our Super hero. Since we couldn’t use copyright material, I chose the next best thing: to make the music myself. So this is me playing guitar and singing (doing a bad job at it too).…

This is my radio bumper. I tried to give a good vibe to our ds106 class so this is the finished product. Hope you enjoy it.…
Just as you can tell a story without sound, you can do the same for audio. After listening to Moon Graffiti on soundcloud, I now realize just how important sound is to telling a good story. All we had was people talking and the noises and sounds that were there …
Well I can’t say it was the easiest week only because I was bombarded with homework and tests for all of my other classes which really slowed down my train of thought for this class. Having said that, this was definitely my favorite week thus far. I love photography and …
Thank you for previewing my photos. In this assignment, I believe what I had to do was take a photo from each thing on the list within 20 minutes. I show both of my times and yes, this was a little easy since it was all pretty much around the …
What is Aquaman doing when he’s not saving the world from the sea? Well he’s helping out the sea creatures of course! Aquaman loves to teach dolphins in the ocean cool tricks and where best to hunt for food. He keeps the sharks away from shores and leads them to …
This is a photo of Invisible Woman. She is a little camera shy but right before I took the picture, she was standing right in front of the tv and I couldn’t see.…
I have always wanted to work with photography, mainly film but really just something with a camera. I decided to go the more realistic route of just being a boring businessman. When I was younger, I used to make videos all the time and I loved it. Later on, I …
