So, I’m hitting up the cinema the other day with my friend Shirley, and we decided to go see a re-showing of Snow White and the 7 Dwarfs. This is, surprisingly, the first time I’ve ever seen this film. I...

Happy Birthday, Black! https://www.flickr.com/photos/130614898@N08/16377263124/

Today’s Daily Create was to make Black a birthday card. Now. Birthdays just mean you are another older…and another year closer to “having more responsibilities.” Who really has time for that? No one. So here you go black. Hope you’re blasting T-Swizzle all day, and enjoying being old.

This past week has been painful. So many projects and work that I can’t find time to do. My favorite daily create was making the “let me take a selfie” video. I’m looking forward to the final unit project to work with a group . I keep forgetting to do these weekly summaries because they … Continue reading Weekly Summary #10 →

Talk to a stranger http://tdc.ds106.us/writings/so-there-i-was/ Finger print art Single colour scavenger hunt These white cars are so bright. I hate them! They make my eyes hurt because of there brightness.

My final unit choice will be to work in a group. I feel that any brain, that’s more than one, can produce work that’s very creative and brilliant. More minds are better than one!

For 3 stars, I did the design a website logo assignment.  I thought this would be a great opportunity to make a logo for our agency, the Black Widow Agency. I made this logo very simply. I went on Powerpoint and put “BWA” in a textbox. I changed the font until I found one I liked. I … Continue reading BWA logo →

This is Rex, Patrick interviewed me and he had some interesting questions that he got from his professor’s. I answered all of them to the best of my ability. It is strange to think I did not exist until the start of Ds106 back in January. This is my video, you better like it or … Continue reading Interview

This show was absolutely my favorite thing we have done in this class, I had so much fun with Kassia, Sharla, and Amanda. The three of us can create magic. We were having a good time throughout the process. The only thing that sucks was scheduling because all of us were busy all the time … Continue reading In the Dark

Ami here to recap the week. Video Assignments I created a Queen Latifah highlight video, an Odell Beckham Jr. video, and a video representing my life and development. Organizing I am flying solo. Daily Creates I made fingerprint art, a color video, and a story about strangers. Commenting One – Two – Three – Four […]

For this assignment (worth four stars), I had to describe myself (my character) through various clips. I started with No Church in the Wild by Angel Haze to represent my distrust of society from a young age. Then, I used Man Down by Rihanna to show how and why I began to put my safety and […]

For this assignment (worth three stars), we had to create a video of a few of our favorite actor’s best scenes. Queen Latifa is my (Ami’s) favorite actress. She portrays a wide variety of characters, but always a strong woman who loves herself. I wish there were more roles created for skilled, adaptable black actresses. To […]

For this assignment (worth 5 stars), I made a highlight reel of Odell Beckham Jr., my (Ami speaking) favorite football player. I found clips online and compiled them into a video, finally adding Power by Kanye West as the music. The Giants are my team. I don’t indulge in things like organized sports often, but […]

Friday- Fingerprint Art For this TDC, I had to make art out of fingerprints. I made a Divest banner. The colors I used were black/gray and orange because those are the colors of the divestment movement. There will be an open forum on divestment tomorrow at 3 pm in Dodd Auditorium. I used photoshop and […]

The last video assignment I completed for this week was called, “60 Second Day – A Video Narrative.” The directions were to, “Try to tell a story about your day in just 60 seconds using one-second clips of video. Tell … Continue reading →

This week was pretty cool to say the least. We had to pretty much do everything as if we were our characters. Like I said numerous times, I really enjoy acting as if I were my character. It gives me sort of a little relief as I’m doing my work. I also find my self … Continue reading Week Ten….Lots of “FUN” →

Hacked into this guys blog. Did it for because I could. This week I decided to post some of my videos this week. One video I did a pretty much an interview with some stalker name Jim Groom. He kept bother me, so I gave him answers to his questions. I did about 15 stars…
