I’m just a senior over here, waiting for the day I can get out of this place (as much as I’m going to miss it). 35 days till commencement, and I couldn’t be more freaking excited. Moving on, here’s what went down this week. The majority of my week was taken up by my___. It […]

This week is finally done! Another busy week for me. This week I finished up submitting applications to schools for next year so DS106 again was not the main thing on my mind. That being said, I think my assignments this week were really good. This week we had to do three daily create. I created […]

This week was a great group effort. We completed the group video project, and I would say that it went even more swimmingly than the radio show. The group had the script written out by this week when we decided to meet. We communicated once again through google docs, and we used the same kind […]

My last dailycreate of the week was to make a serious selfie. Pretty simple. I attempted to take a serious one before shadowing heart surgery- as you can tell I don’t do serious well.  

For my last assignment of the week I did the 4 1/2 star mini-documentary on my character Bob. You can find all of the info on Bob here. For this assignment you had to create a 2-3 minute documentary. I did it on my character because I needed one more star to fulfill my 10 for my character […]

Worth 4 1/2 stars, I did an assignment called I am me. Instead of doing this video about myself though, I did it about my character Bob the rancher. The instructions tell you to make a video of showing pictures or things you like or like to do. Seeing as Bob is a rancher, I went […]

Continuing on with my 16 stars for the week, I did an assignment that did not deal with my character. This video assignment is called Sport Team Pump-Up Video and is worth 4 1/2 stars to bring me to a total of 9 thus far. This assignment tells you to pick your favorite sports team and make […]

This week we focused on creating our video. We had to incorporate our characters once again but we came up with the idea to do a puppet show. After much thought into the show we came up with bull  business. This week was simple and just focused on the video which I really liked. I am so … Continue reading "Weekly Summary 11"

This week my group got together and finished our video show “College is a Rodeo”. It took a lot of effort and many hours, but it’s finally done! It shows what our characters would do if they went to college here at UMW. Here’s the final cut: You can check out our progress through my video … Continue reading Filming, Editing, Uploading, Oh My: Week 11 →

After many hours of shooting, editing, and uploading, we finally have the finished video available for everyone’s viewing pleasure! Please enjoy! I want to thank my group for getting all of this together in such a timely manner. We did an excellent job, and minus a couple hiccups here and there, it turned out splendid. … Continue reading College is a Rodeo: The Final Product →

This week was our second week working with video. I feel I improved from last week and have a better understanding on how to use Windows Movie Maker and make additions, edits, and special transitions in my video creations. I started off the week reviewing a provided resource which I found to be very helpful … Continue reading Week 11 Summary

This week I was to complete this mini documentary assignment . I chose to create this documentary about my western character, Talie. You can read more about Talie here. I focused on certain aspects of Talie’s life such as her job, where she lives, what she finds important, and her personality. As such, in this … Continue reading Talie’s Documentary

Videos were continued in this past week but before I get into that, here are my daily creates! 3/27: Some form of March madness. Well and Irish dancers “March madness” is constant dancing throughout the month! @ds106dc #tdc1540 March madness = dance drills pic.twitter.com/iDDei3jXDl — Tierra (@wildwebds106) March 27, 2016 3/30: A new modern ACME … Continue reading Weekly Summary 3/25 – 4/1

This entire week has been a blur of learning how to shoot, edit and publish a video but it has been accomplished!!!! I shot my portion on Tuesday and then attempted to edit it in Windows Movie Maker but I couldn’t accomplish what I had in mind. Fast forward to today, Thursday, and I finally … Continue reading We’re live people!

Tonight Tierra and I sat down to edit together the final parts of the video. Three hours later, we’re finally in the uploading stage. The video turned out really well, minus some little sound errors thanks to my portion. We got together in the tech center and used iMovie to compile all of the audio … Continue reading And… Cut! Progress on “College is a Rodeo” →

This week, I had to define March Madness, invent a Wile E. Coyote trap, and create a surreal scene out of Monument Valley.

This week we have to do 16 stars worth of video stars with 10 of them being for out character. My first assignment I did was Live Turned Video which is worth 4 1/2 stars. This assignment instructs you to take pictures of an artist during a live performance and make it into a music video. In […]

I completed the four and a half star assignment Signing Words. Using my iPhone I filmed my hand using american sign language to spell out some words. I chose to spell out the name of my character. Admittedly, the only language I’ve expressed using a single hand has been impolite. A single gesture not hard to […]

I completed the five star assignment Morse Code Challenge. I used a website (http://morsecode.scphillips.com/translator.html) to create a phrase which relates to my character. Using the morse code translation of this phrase, I proceeded to take pictures of my interpretation of the dots and dashes which were in the forms of goldfish and pretzel sticks. (They were […]

For today’s dailycreate we had to change monument valley into a surrealistic landscape then upload the picture to twitter. First I was thinking to change the hues on the picture to make it loo like outer space, but I noticed a lot of people did that. So instead I used an editing app on my iPhone where […]

The first half of this week was dedicated to shooting videos in order to use them as footage for our show. The show itself is a vlog-style interpretation of how our characters would interact with going to college, so making the videos was about incorporating campus life. After writing my script, I spent a lot … Continue reading College is a Rodeo: In the Making →

For this assignment I was to create a six second video of myself creating art. This week I have to complete ten stars worth of video assignments that incorporate my created western character, Talie. You can read more about Talie here. I chose this assignment because I do like art particularly drawing (even though I … Continue reading Talie’s Six Second Art

This week we are required to complete 16 stars worth of video assignments and 10 of the stars must involve the western character I created this semester. As such, for this video assignment I acted as if I were my created western character, Talie. You can learn more about Talie here. I chose to complete this … Continue reading Talie’s 5 Second Film Joke

For today’s daily create we had to create and invention for Wile E. Coyote. I thought why not do an exploding birthday cake seeing as it is my sister’s birthday tomorrow (I had cake on the mind). Wile E. Coyote can act like he is giving someone a nice gift the BAM you are covered in […]

For this assignment, we were required to create a public service announcement, whether funny or serious. I took this opportunity to create a PSA for my Western character, Riza, who is a saloon owner. In this video, she complains of supermarkets which are running her business out of business. When I first recorded the voice […]

Today’s challenge was to create a new ACME product! I created an electric gel that you can rub on anything and it will give a shock to whoever tries to take your stuff but won’t provide a shock to you!

So we’ve made some good progress so far! Our plan, as you saw on my trailer last week, is to
