and i would walk 500 miles
by @lizlynnkondzel February 6, 2020The goal of this (3 star, visual) assignment was to walk around taking a photo every 10 steps, and then make a collage out of the photos you got. I took a little ~creative license~ with the regulations (i.e. 10 steps is not very many so sometimes it was more like 12-13) but ds106 is […] -

Who Said What
This Visual Assignment required me to pick a photo of a secret agent, then add a quote from a different secret agent, before finally attributing the quote to a final secret agent. I saw this as a good opportunity to work in the course theme. Obviously, James Bond came to mind when considering 80’s secret … -
Combophoto
This particular assignment involved splicing a pair of pictures together to make one single image, however, I took my own artistic liberties and ran with this assignment. I decided to make my dream animal by combining my 3 favorite animals into one beautiful creature. I had to really dig deep in my memory bank to … -
Graphic Gift
Here is a picture of a vintage microwave that a cleaned up. (I think its from the 80’s!) This would make great clip art. -

Colorize It
For my third assignment I chose colorize it which wanted you to take a picture youve already taken and change the colors in it to seem more unrealistic. I used the app “Color Pop” which I downloaded off the apple store on my iPhone. The app was okay, it dd its job but as you’ll … -
Weekly Assignment #2
For this assignment I also wanted to make it 80’s related and at first I was struggling to think of how to incorporate it. The assignment was to make a gif or street are or graffiti or look up a picture of one. Well when I looked up 80’s graffiti I didnt find much except … -
Weekly Assignment #1
The first assignment that I chose for this week was one that was combining two images together. I decided to put an 80’s theme twist on this and combined two 80’s prints. I thought that this assignment would go well with the 80’s twist because the first thing that came to mind to blend was … -
Nothing Says Cheap Like Comic Sans and Helvetica
For my next Visual Assignment, I chose What A Crappy Font Will Do (3.5 stars), and I went with the Cold Stone Creamery logo since this ice cream shop opened in 1988. I used the photo editor on my phone to white out the original logo, and then using the photo editor on my laptop, […] -

These are my amazing roommates! We have only all lived together since this past June but we all love going on adventures together and just having a blast. For this assignment I actually used Powerpoint as my “editor of choice” because ... -
Splash the Color
by @samprice_ds106 February 5, 2020For this assignment our instructions were to remove all the color from a photo and then restore the color to one object. I decided to use a photo of me in front of a vibrant yellow door because I thought the pop of color from the door would make the contrast more visible. I used photo shop to first lay down a full color image of the photo. I then went in a laid a black and white image perfectly on top of it. I was then able to cut out the door part of the black and white image […] -
Hybird Animal
by @samprice_ds106 February 5, 2020For this assignment we were instructed to combine two different animals to make some sort of hybrid animal. I decided to go with a cat and a dog. I felt like each of these animals had qualities I liked so why not combine them and make the perfect pet! The name of this animal would be “Cog” (a combo of “dog” and “cat”). They would be super high energy and love being outside. They love being played with but also can cuddle up with you and sleep. They are independent when they need to be but also rely on you. […] -
Popstar Out of Place
by @samprice_ds106 February 5, 2020For this assignment we had to take a picture of a pop star and put them into a location where you wouldn’t usually find them. I decided to stick with our 80s theme and use Freddy Mercury from Queen as my pop star. I then decided to put him at the bottom of the ocean. I had a lot of fun with this assignment because I felt like I had a lot of creative freedom. Plus, I got to use photoshop, which I love. I’m sure the fishes enjoyed the underwater performance! PS: This was a 3.5 star assignment..5 stars […] -

Averaged Portrait (Dancer)
by @kvawterds106 February 4, 2020Since I usually kind of manipulate what the assignment is asking for I decided to make this not a portrait, but rather full body shots... -
Everyday Value
As I scrolled through my camera roll for this visual assignment (2 stars), I found this picture from my landing flight into Akita, Japan after my 3-day weekend trip to Tokyo in late November. It’s a pretty bad picture, but I thought it caught Akita’s rural beauty just right. I did the best I could […] -
The Forest Gump Photo
by @samprice_ds106 February 4, 2020I love using photoshop, and especially when it involves photoshopping myself into photos so I was excited for this assignment. When I was looking for a picuture to photoshop myslef I found two I really liked so I decided to use both. The first one was a picture of President Kennedy with his wife. I chose this one because it was an older photo and I wanted to challenge myself to be able to edit my picture to match the old photo. To achieve this I put a black and white filter on the photo and then increased the “grain” […] -
What am I?
For this week’s first assignment, I decided to do something that I thought seemed like fun. Maybe it’s too easy or too hard, but I thought it would be worthContinue readingWhat am I? -
Combophoto
(3 stars) This assignment took me longer because I am still getting the hang of photoshopping pictures. This one is really random but I picked a girl playing volleyball but decided to replace the ball with a picture of it raining cats and dogs. Again, not sure what made me pick these pictures but it … -

Concert You Want To Be At
(2 stars & related to 80’s theme) This was my first time using any photoshop app and to be honest, it took me a while to figure out. I decided to use Gimp because it was free and what professor Bond suggested. I wanted to relate this assignment to our theme the 80’s, so I …
