Last post of the day, can I get a hollah!? Today I did my first attempt at editing audio and completed the required audio assignment, sound effects story. I’m actually quite pleased with how it came out though it’s not an exciting tale…it is one that I relate to personally. The story I wished to portray was one that I…

WELP. I did the thing today…I have officially lost my mind and now live fully through Final Fantasy. #ds106 #tdc2009 Oh hey, Rin's Travel Agency is back with a new Tour Guide! ME. Come visit all the wonderful and demolished sites of Spira <3 pic.twitter.com/hwHjr8bfPc — Taylor (@simplytelling) July 10, 2017 I cannot believe how much time I spent on…

Welcome to week three! It’s our hump week, classy right? So, I’m noticing this week that we have a lot of reading and experimenting to do and let me tell you what…I’m going to need it. I’m not the best at talking let alone editing audio, so this week is probably going to be a tough one for me. ( ⚆…

Today’s daily create was “you, on tour” and since I’ve had my upcoming trip to the Dominican Republic on my mind lately, I decided to use that. My picture can be found here. I found a picture online of Punta Cana and used aviary.com to add text to it. The only hard part was choosing …

This week’s required assignment involved making a story using only sound effects. You can listen to mine on Soundcloud. My story is about a guy going for a walk then he sees a car crash. He runs to the scene and uses his phone to call for help. He checks the heartbeat of one driver then …

One of the key points he talks about in part one is the importance of telling a story as a series of events and keeping the listener engaged by making them ask a question. A question which the storyteller will answer by the time he’s/she’s finished and there will be a moment of reflection. The …

To start off this week we looked at two titans of the industry, Ira Glass and Jad Abumrad. The first couple videos I watch were from an interview with Ira where he describes his craft. One thing that really stuck out to me was from the first interview. He was talking about how different written …

In this daily create we had to take a picture of something that we usually see from a different angle. To take this picture, I went on a similar level in regards to my dog’s height.  He was very surprised when I took the picture and I thought he was going to snap at me. …

Week two was much different than week 1. This week we had to focus on design principles and photography. I think while I was more challenged this week, I felt good about what I have done and the progress I’ve made. For my  first daily create of the week, I had to how what my …

I feel that I successfully completed all of the assignments this week. The hardest part was getting used to using GIMP and applying it to the “Are We There Yet” assignment. The daily creates were easy to complete and fun to do. My favorite part was doing the GIF assignments, …

For week 2 we had focused on design principles and photography. This week we had to complete five different design assignments for a total of 12 stars. For my first design assignment I had to design my own signature shoe, I chose to use the website NikeiD  to create my own take on the Lebron … Continue reading "Week 2 review"

I had a great time doing the designblitz. It really made me get creative and think outside of the box. Color: I took a portrait of myself of my Ipad using the photo booth function. I used thermal camera edit as I thought it looked the coolest. I think that the picture is a great …

  I created a GIF of the sports player that I think has done the best this year (at least as a wide receiver) ODELL BECKHAM This is a gif of one of his best catches

For my second Gif, I went with a video of Tom Morello killing it on the guitar. Morello is one of the best guitarists in rock, and it has always been a desire of mine to seem him play live. He has been in popular bands such as Rage against the machine. I made this …

For this assignment I was tasked with taking pictures of things that represented certain design elements. I found that this blitz was harder than the blitz I had to do last week. Minimalism: My grandfather gave me a Movado watch for my high school graduation present, and the watch is a great example of Minimalism … Continue reading "Design Blitz"

When Massimo Vinelli came out with Vignelli Canon, it was a game changer in the Graphic Design industry. Many of the topics discussed in this great novel have been implemented in the thought process of many artists in today’s world. The book is short, simple, and to the point. While I can talk about many …

My first daily create for week 3 was to make an off-beat inspirational poster. I found a picture of a businessman and used aviary.com to sharpen the image and insert the text, “You get what you work for. Not what you wish for.” I didn’t want an identity in the picture and that’s why his …

This is my ds106 week 2 summary. I feel that this week was a little more difficult than week one…

This week threw much more at me than the previous week. I did get behind on one daily create, but the remaining three were completed. I did a few design assignments, which were great. I was able to parody a great movie, reduce one down to four major plot points, photoshop myself onto a mountain, […]
