WEDNESDAY What I did? Today I created a storyboard, I apologize for the lack of artistic talent, there’s a reason I’m a professional writing major and not an art major. Check below. I also wrote out the dialogue that I need my friend to say out loud for one of the scenes, and then the […]

What I did? I began the introduction to my video, using the tool ” iSkySoft Video Editor” which seems to work better for me than iMovie. I also asked my friend if she’d be willing to act out a few scenes for me, as Ariel, and she agreed. Today in class, I used the fake […]

Calendar: My calendar is going to be difficult to predict. I am actually ready to start animating my story in Flash, but know that at first there will be a learning curve as I re-familiarize myself with the program. Also, with the experience I do have with Flash, you can get stuck on one tiny […]

I have decided to do a sort of “Bachelor” preview, Princess edition for my remix. I will be using Cinderella and Ariel, as I am most familiar with those Disney Princesses. In order to keep in line with the stories, I’m going to re-watch the Disney movies, and then ask my friends to participate in […]

For my story I have chosen Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire. I will be using Adobe Flash to create an original animated title sequence for the movie. My inspiration for this project comes from one of my favorite designers, Saul Bass, and the title sequences and movie posters that he had done for movies […]
what makes a good remix?

1. I thought that all of the examples of past students’ projects, were great representations of remixes of stories. I think it is important to stay consistent with the theme of the actual story but then implement one’s own “spark” into it, to make it unique. As the assignment indicates, we have to make sure […]
4/3 Online Work Day

What makes a good remix? A good remix will have the integrity of the original, but add a new and innovative spin to the work, therefore creating a separate work all together. One of my favorite ‘remixes’ that caused much controversy and legal fees is the following image by artist Richard Prince, an appropriation artist […]
4/1 Presentations & Digital Archives
by • • Comments Off on 4/1 Presentations & Digital Archives
Although we were not required to make a post for today’s presentations, I did have some thoughts I wanted to share on the interface, Digital Archives. Prior to choosing our interface, I researched Digital Archives throughly to see if I wanted to use it as my interface. After getting a good grasp on the affordances […]

The tool that I would be most likely to use from today’s presentations is ThingLink. Like the other tools I’ve chosen throughout this project, I like the idea of being able to create a story using multimedia. With ThingLink you can upload all kinds of pictures and videos from different websites and talk about them. […]
3/27 & 3/30 Presentations

3/27 I liked the application Trello. It reminded me very strongly of Pinterest, which I am a frequent user of. However, one feature that Trello offers that Pinterest does not, is the ability to make lists easily and efficiently. I like that you can move items between lists like “To do” to “Complete.” However, I […]
