The difference between Evil and Good
I watched both opening videos from Touch of Evil and the differences are clear. In the video that was not Orson Wells there was no sound, but I was still waiting for the BOOM. The video kept going even when the couple was near the car. I thought for suspense they would kill off the … Continue reading The difference between Evil and Good -

The NoirBird
Tuesday night we had our second live tweet-along with ds106radio. The story was Dashiell Hammett’s classic, The Maltese Falcon, produced for Lux Radio Theater in 1943. I wondered how people would react to old time radio, with its 70 year … Continue reading → -

It’s Puppy Love
I was hoping when I saw the title of today’s daily create, that we would get to take a picture of our puppy and upload to Flickr. Little did I know, that it was going to be this little guy with a caption. Fortunately, he is pretty adorable himself, and I happen to be an... Read more » -

It’s a puppy thing!
That little depressed face! Looks so sad like he lost his best friend. And like my children I can just imagine him saying “his bone is bigger than mine” but yet they won’t discuss that there is 14-years between them or in Prince’s case the other dog could eat him as a snack! -
Bumpin’
Now that we have a #ds106 radio up and running, I have an assignment to create a 15-30 second radio bumper. This was a fun audio assignment, allowing to play with Audacity again. I first wrote down my script for what I would say exactly. After deciding on “You’re listening to DS106 radio! Stay tuned […] -
Audio Reflection
Audio is a huge part of films and videos. It is used to set the tone, mood, and setting. It shows the feelings of characters and the surrounding environment. Sound has been an essential component of the videos we have watched. It drives the stories because it goes along with the actions happening and foreshadows … Continue reading Audio Reflection -
Welcome to ds106radio
Here’s my ds106radio bumper! This assignment took me a pretty long time to complete. First, I had to find the perfect song that conveyed the noir feeling I wanted. I knew I wanted to do something with a jazzy feel to it, so I looked at some of my favorite jazz musicians. I decided on this […] -
Glitching

Edie’s Post-its
In this visual assignment (2 stars) I’m using my noir character, Edie Waz, as the post-it writer. Because of this, I don’t have any references to help with the context besides my older posts. Edie’s Bag, A Canary, and Her Introduction I chose this post because I thought it would be another way to build my character as well … Continue reading Edie’s Post-its → -
A noir106 live-tweet might end with a death
I had a lot of fun during tonights ds106radio live tweet. Listening to the radio show gave me much more insight on the use of voices and sounds to convey noir, but, more importantly, I loved interacting with other ds106-ers on Twitter for the hour. It was great to see what others had to say […] -
