    by
    My cousin is planning on doing a children’s book and asked me to illustrate, so with Groom’s permission I’m doing some concept work for the book! I’m gonna be helping give ideas and input on the characters and story. The idea is that the book will be about a girl (or a trio of sisters) […]

    Weeks 12 & 13: Welcome to the Case Files

    by
    This week we'll be taking a big turn in ds106, with each agency being assigned a case to investigate over the next two weeks. You'll have to gather evidence, build a narrative, and share your progress. Don't wait until the end; cases should be evolving and developing regularly between now and 4/19/15.

    How is this related to Bonnie and Cleo? why cookies are Bonnie’s favorite food, don’tcha know? This is for the bleeping censor assignment and I gotta say it’s pretty great.

    by
    So there’s this funny little assignment called sound to visual and I figured I’d try it using this audio assignment. All images are of the haunted mansion, which is in disneyland and disney world. I tried to kind of have the pictures be related to what is going on with the audio. So I show […]

    Week 11: Dark Web

    by
    This week you all will be required to build out a web presence for your respective agencies . This entails creating the “dark web,” as it were, for Noir 106. While you can do this individually over the next few weeks, it will be far more work to try and do all that is expected alone. We highly recommend you work as part of a group to build out your respective agency sites, but this is not a requirement, just a recommendation.

    Killin it with these storyboards

    by
    So I did the “Swede a Scene” assignment, which was o recreate a scene from a movie in any way you could. So since I like to draw, I broke out my wacom tablet and story-boarded a scene from the 1967 Bonnie and Clyde movie, replacing Clyde with Cleo. In all I ended up with 33 frames […]

    Week 10: Finishing Video and “Changing Over”

    by
    This week in ds106 we’ll be completing our video unit and beginning the “Changeover” that will take us through the final weeks of the course (don’t worry, we promise this won’t hurt.) Those of you who worked in groups for video during week 1 will be completing your group project; the rest of you will be completing individual video assignments. We have one last remaining video assignment everyone must do. Beyond that, you’ll all be choosing whether to organize into groups or work solo for the rest of the semester, and everyone will switch over to being their character from here on out.

    cute lesbians kill people and steal stuff

    by
    I took on the character description video assignment. The directions were to take a few clips to describe a character. My one character, Cleo Barrow, wouldn’t be complete without her Bonnie, so I made it a video about both of them. I was inspired by the trailer for the 1967 Bonnie and Clyde movie. Then […]

    radio show listen in

    by
    I listened to Inside Talking tonight and thought it was great! I think working in the sound booth really helped them out. The sound was really clear and there were no distracting background noises. Then they did a “real good” job on their sound effects; it was nothing too over the top, and the audience reactions […]
