    Lake Louise

    by
    October 30, 2015. I'm in one of my favourite places in the whole world, Lake Louise (and even better, staying for the first time ever in the Chateau Lake Louise, which is truly one of the best hotels I've ever been in). I expected to open with the clas...

    Human Resources

    by
    October 30, 2015. One of the nicer things about working in a larger office is that there is more varied community and people do things like this. This isthe current state of the door of the HR staff office, just down the hall from me. So cool. From Fli...

    Reverse, Reverse!

    by
    For 2.5 stars this week, I completed the Play it Backward, Jack assignment. Things always look super weird when you play them in reverse, don’t they? So take a video of something in your life–someone running, the toilet flushing, the... Continue Reading →

    Stories of Shapes – Shapes of Stories

    by
    The structure of a story may seem a complicated concept but Kurt Vonnegut does a pretty good job of explaining it. For this unit we have been presented with a video for Vonnegut in which he discusses stories and their structure. I found watching the video more of a recap then new information as in…

    And the Dust Settles

    by
    This week and the week before had slightly fewer assignments going around than previous weeks, so it was slightly more challenging finding good posts to comment on. Nonetheless, given my schedule, how things (random ranting+complaining that the average reader would care less about)…I am trying to stay a little more on top of things. Normally, […]

    Blair is signing

    by
      For this assignment I had to pretend that I knew a little sign language.  I looked up a few YouTube videos to make sure I was signing some what correctly.  I thought that this assignment would be a great way to introduce my host character Blair to video.  Blair is SUPER shy, hence the […]

    Looking, Listening, and Analyzing

    by
    So, for this assignment, I’ll be examining This Scene from the movie Good Will Hunting, which I have never seen before. Let’s start! Look: The clip begins with Robin Williams in the center of the shot, and spends a long time just focused on him as he speaks. Then it very subtly begins panning/turning to the […]

    Video Essay- Bride of Frankenstein

    by
    For our video essay this week, I decided to look at a scene in the Bride of Frankenstein. This is a movie that I had watched for a separate DS106 assignment several weeks ago.   The scene that I reviewed is when Frankenstein first meets the bride, and her eventual rejection of him. The original scene in… Read More

    How to Read a Movie

    by
    It’s probably an embarrassment to myself to say that I don’t really know who Roger Ebert is. I know I’ve seen his face before, and I know he has something to do with film (based on what we’re learning this week), but I know almost nothing about him. But, I know what he’s talking about, […]

    Horrorgami?

    by
    Today’s daily create prompt is: Paper Dandy’s book Horrorgami contains all you need to just make these scary figures, but we want you to make your own horrorgami, as Halloween approaches, and use the examples as inspiration only. What is horrorgami? Well, it is spooky kirigami, of course! Okay, there is a You Tube tutorial and […]

    I watched One Point Perspective and Camera Angles and Techniques.   From the first, I learned how a single perspective can influence the feelings the audience feels. A symmetrical scene […]
