Timeline (3 Stars) For this assignment I created a timeline of major events in Sarah Mustard’s life and also showed how these events interacted with what events were occurring in the…

I was inspired by Spencer’s Jim Groom art, which was Star Wars themed. At first, I kind of shied away from doing Jim Groom art, but Spencer’s art was so funny and well done that I figured why not? He took the scene between Han Solo and Greedo and replaced...

This week I listened into Thursday to NOIR Not the Father. The sound effects of the audience was on point, the show got really intense and was great! This show sounded as if it was on Maury or Jerry Springer with the story and sound effects which was great! Although I got a little lost … Continue reading DS106radio listen in: NOIR Not the Father

I was inspired by Janaye’s soundboard conversation because it was Dr. Who themed. She incorporated music from the show, different characters talking, and added herself as the doctor’s companion. She says she always wanted to be in an episode of Dr. Who, so she took this opportunity to add herself...

I was inspired by Kayleigh Barbee’s bumper sticker for the Steadfast Sleuths radio show. It was a great representation of minimalist art that made you want to listen to the show. Instead of making an elaborate sticker that had silhouettes of characters or hinted at the plot, she put three...

Sound, sound is really important in our life. Sometimes it can change our emotion and bring fear into us. The Spooky Hotel by Shannon Grubbs brought me fear in this morning. This was only a minute music, which combined with the sounds that makes me horripilate. She got all of five sounds from ‘free sound’ website, but […]

Lauren Falkenstein’s Cheesy UMW Ad inspired me to take everyday things from my life and incorporate them into assignments. She took the sayings that scroll across the UMW website and created an ad out of them. While it poked fun at UMW’s cheesy sayings, it also ended up sounding just...

There are zero puns on inspiration. Okay first up is Spencer’s JIM GROOM AS AN EWOK I can tell that a lot of work went into editing this image. Even when he described everything that he did, I was in awe. I’m not very good at image manipulation, so this just sort of blew my … Read More →

Sahar Alkhelaifi has very clear and beautiful photo safari, which is the assignment that we had to create a ‘Designblitz.’ She chose to take pictures that involved with ‘unity, balance, color, and rhythm.’ When I see her post first time, the picture of the matryoshka caught my eyes. She used this photo for unity. The rest […]

The first assignment that inspired me was new logo combined with AT&T and T-Mobile by Brianne Comden. It was really well photoshopped photo. I never expected that two companies could be join together. When I see this merged logo first time, I could not able to the difference between this logo and the original AT&T […]
