For my second remix I remixed one of the assignments I did this week. For I’m ready for my close up we had to close in on somebody’s face and put it in a random place where they shouldn’t be. For the original assignment I put Arnold Schwarzenegger in space. For the remix  I had … Continue reading I’m ready for my close up Dr. Seuss remix →

This has been a fun week for me, as mashups are my forte.  I began by mashing up E.T. and Poltergeist in another little exercise focusing on finding similarities among films (even with wildly different tones).  Following the election, I performed another Poltergeist mashup to properly capture my feelings.  I then published a Wonder Woman […]

For one of remixes I went back to the minimalist poster design I did as a design assignment. The remix was to flip the mood of the assignment. Since this was supposed to be a minimalist design I had to make it the opposite. My way of doing this was to was to add a … Continue reading Not so minimalist poster remix →

To begin, you will need to find your visual footage of choice for editing.  One of the ways this can be achieved is by downloading videos from YouTube.  To do this, begin by highlighting the section in front of the youtube url and replacing it with pwn (so it reads pwnyoutube.com). This will direct you […]

This assignment was tricky in part because finding two scenes that worked well together took a good while. The assignment...

For this assignment we had to mash up two different movies in a way that would make sense. I went with E.T. and Batman. They both have iconic parts that have to do with the sky. In E.T. they have E.T. flying across the sky and in Batman they have the iconic bat symbol. I … Continue reading This does not belong here (4 stars) →

One of the video assignments I did was the Highlight Reels Assignment. I noticed that a lot of other people did the assignment so I figured it would be a good one to make a tutorial for since its so popular. Doing this assignment is more than just taking a lot of sports clips and … Continue reading Highlight Reels tutorial →

★★★½ First assignment I’m making a post for this week is a video game cover mashup. I wasn’t sure what two games to use, so I decided to ask my girlfriend to give me two absolutely random games with no context. I’m now bound by honour to use those two...

For this remix, I immediately decided to do breast cancer. Not only is the ribbon instantly recognizable, but it’s a cancer that runs in my family. So, what to do with the ribbon? At first, I debated replacing the ‘O’ in ‘NO’ with the ribbon, but decided in the end that it wasn’t central enough. … Continue reading Cancer sucks, so get a tat →

For this assignment we had to make a compilation of one of our favorite characters from a movie or TV show. My favorite character has to be Ron Swanson from Parks and Recreation. He’s a anti-government libertarian that happens to work for the government which is a big part of what makes his character so … Continue reading Ron Swanson Compilation →

This week was fun and interesting. I took to the visual mash up assignments. I really enjoyed playing with Photoshop and saw my work growing by the end of the week, though there is still a lot that I don’t know how to do. This is something that I will continue to seek out and […]

Week 11 was very easy. Since it was a mashup week there didn’t feel like there was any new technology that need to be learned. This week was combining all the stuff that we had learned from previous weeks. I enjoyed this week. Here is my work: Make a Tutorial http://bobbybobbles.com/uncategorized/tutorial/ Mashups and Remixes http://bobbybobbles.com/uncategorized/ds106-mashup-remix/ … Continue reading "Week 11"

I opted to complete another remix of an old assignment by making it go emo.  The original was already somewhat dark in tone (especially with the choice of music).  To add another layer of darkness, I added an edge effect using CyberLink PowerDirector.  This creates an otherworldly feel that seems to compliment the story told by […]

In response to Thursdays Daily Create topic: A young boys keep after a morning walk on the beach @ds106dc #tdc1768 — Ben Sorensen (@bensorense) November 10, 2016 There was an image of many things that would not ordinarily come together as memorabilia. However, it did look as if they could all be things that washed … Continue reading "Daily Create 1: Memorabilia"

The purpose of this assignment is to take a dramatic close up of a character and put in on top of a cute background. I decided to use Captain America because he is one of my favorite superheroes and I figured there would be some good dramatic photos of him. Once I found this photo … Continue reading "I’m Ready For My Closeup"

This assignment took me back to the Graphic Design week where I got a crash course in GIMP. If you are not familiar with GIMP, it is an open source software. The link to the download is available on our DS106 website. When I first downloaded it, it was all in english… Then when I … Continue reading "This Doesn’t Belong Here GIMP Cutout Tutorial"

For this assignment I had to take three holidays and create a photo that combines them. The remix that got paired up with this was called pretty in pink. That means I just need to add pink to the final product. I used the holidays Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas because they are my favorite and … Continue reading "Holiday Mashup remix"

I remixed my old archetypes assignment into a bad-powerpoint.  I began by deliberately selecting small pictures that I stretched to a large size (making them poor quality).  I also enlarged the pictures in such a way that pieces were cut off or images covered the title text.  In addition, I chose a particularly terrible lime […]

The purpose of this assignment was to mash two an image and text together to make a new image. The remix that I used on this assignment was to include a Dr. Seuss character. I figured the best character to use was the Cat in the Hat because he is very recognizable. I really liked … Continue reading "Ds106 Mashup remix"

For my tutorial I used the assignment I’m ready for my close up. The purpose of this assignment is to take a dramatic close up of a character and put in on top of a cute background. First step was to find the photos I needed. I just googled the photos and then saved them … Continue reading "Tutorial"

Arnold Schwarzenegger was walking down the street one day when a group of young kids began doing a bunch of poor Arnie impressions. “GET TO THE CHOPPER”, “I’LL BE BACK”, they yelled. This struck a chord with Arnold and he said that he has had enough with all of the cliche impressions that people would … Continue reading Arnie in Space (4 star) →

Hey peeps! I just finished my last mashup assignment in which I combined two video games into one!  I play League of Legends and I thought, “what better for this assignment than to combine the two largest PC games in the world into one?” So I decided to combine League of Legends with World of … Continue reading "Video Game Mashup"

Mashups made for a really fun week! I learned a lot about what it takes to make a mashup, whether it be music, video or photo. I did three Mashup Assignments throughout the week, all of which were really fun and interesting to do. The first required me to make a mashup of all of […]

I had previously created something that explains with photos how to create something in audacity. I didn’t know about the tutorial option to tag so I didn’t tag it but think this would help someone tremendously! Here is my previous post shared for a tutorial post!   This week I was given the challenge of […]

Hey guys! Today I created a logo of my favorite football teams, the University of Georgia Bulldogs and the Atlanta Falcons, combined with a League of Legends competitive video gaming team, Team SoloMid.  Most of you probably won’t recognize the TSM logo, but it is the logo I placed on the Bulldog’s shoulder. I used Adobe Photoshop … Continue reading "Logo Creation"

This assignment was worth 4 stars originally but I found it to be worth only 2 bringing it down to 3 1/2 stars (overrated still). We had to take 2 logos and mash them together. The first thing that came to my mind is Whiskas cat food because I have 2 new additions to my family and […]
