So this week we focused more on video creation and editing. We were asked to do a video essay, explore how we could do the final project based on the ideas our peers came up with, do 2 daily creates, and either do 10 stars of video assignments or a 30-60 second trailer introducing our…

Video Essay: Skyfall
I did my video essay on Skyfall. Skyfall is one of my favorite movies and I am a big fan of the James Bond series (if that’s what you can call it). I recorded my voice while I went through and talked about some of the cinematics in the movie. I used an already published…
Final Project Ideas
So there are 2 final project ideas that my peers came up with that I think are pretty interesting. Skyler came up with the idea to do something related to keep the final project centered around Bob Ross and recreate one of his paintings using one of his videos. I think that would be a…
VLOG ONE DAY
For this video assignment, I had to vlog one day of my life. Ideally, the assignment called for that day to be today, however, I just used a TikTok of a daily vlog that I made when I went to Mexico, this past summer. I did all the editing in the TikTok app.
5 Second Film
For this video assignment, I had to make a 5-second supershort film that had a joke, bit, or gag in it. I decided to use a TikTok I made months ago. It’s a clip from Call of Duty Warzone with a parody of Vanessa Carlton’s “Thousand Miles” playing over it. Obviously, the intention is for…
Play by Play (NSFW)
For this video assignment, I had to do commentary over some kind of videogame gameplay, funny video, or sports event. I chose to just use a video I already created and posted on YouTube. There’s no commentary over the video itself but it does include live commentary of my friends and me while we are…
Weekly Summary
This week was definitely a light week and a nice change of pace after working on the radio show the previous two weeks. This week we were asked to tie together the daily create we did, do some revising/remixing of 2 previous assignments we’ve done, brainstorm on ideas of what kind of story we want…
Radio Show Broadcasting: Roy Rogers Show
So I did not have time to listen live to the radio shows, so I had to do so on my own time. I did want to highlight one radio show in particular that I really enjoyed. This isn’t to say I didn’t enjoy the rest, because I definitely did. With this particular radio show,…
Looking Ahead
I’ve spent a little bit of time thinking about what idea I’d have in mind for the final project. There’s one idea I have in mind that I think embodies ds106 as well as people in general. I think it would be cool to share the story of how there’s a different kind of creativity…
Rework
So for the rework, I went back and updated 2 writing assignments that I previously did. One was writing about my life as a spy and the other was writing a letter to my past self. For the life of a spy post, I added another journal entry to make it so that it’s as…
