To bad he isn’t british

My second project took a little more time and I do feel this one is worth 4 stars unlike the last project. here is my movie poster mash up. I hope it is effective. I tried to stray away from the examples used which mostly but not all simply clipped out a piece of one image and pasted it into another. I tried to just recreate the whole poster. any how, here is my movie mashup poster.

That doesn’t belong there

This week is mash-up week, and we are off. I would like to state for the record that the world of the internet we live in today is full of intellectual theft. As a photographer any time I give some one the right of use for any of my pictures I always give them the standard BS. “Don’t alter them, Don’t crop out my logo, If you can site me as the author.”  The mash-up is sort of a perversion of free speech. I do think that you should be able to use anyone’s work for education. I also feel the use of another’s work for criticism and press is vital to my love of liberty in this country. However, using other’s work for rebranding is unprofessional.

With that being said here we go with my first theft of intellect. for this project I use the assignment bank assignment called “this doesn’t belong here”

Shake It Off with Classic Music!

Have you seen the latest viral video of Taylor Swift? She’s dancing to some Classical music and it fits surprisingly well! Both her and the background dancer. I wonder why she decided to take up Classical music instead of continuing what she was doing before. Maybe she is onto something and wants to be the first to rake in all of the cash before someone else catches on? Oh well, it doesn’t matter as long as she enjoys doing what she likes.

This  four and half star assignment was really fun to make. I decided to use Taylor Swift’s Shake it off song because I wanted to create my own version like one of the many other parodies and mashups that I’ve seen on YouTube.  It sucks that as soon as I uploaded the video to YouTube, they took it down almost immediately. I had to upload it on Vimeo instead, so hopefully it doesn’t get removed by the time I finish this post or my other assignments. Getting the video itself was easy, but deciding on which song to use in the background that also matched up with the video gave me a bit of trouble.jh

For the creation of this video, I used ClipConverter to download the music video and the Classical music from YouTube. The site is fairly simple to use, you select what file type you want after you inserted a URL and then click the “Start” button that appears to begin downloading. The next step was to insert both the audio and video into Sony Vegas to begin editing. I deleted the audio that came with the music video and inserted the Classical Music before exporting the video.df

I  hope you guys enjoyed the video!

One Photo A Day

For this mashup assignment I had to take one selfie everyday and combine them into a video. I decided to take up the part of my host character because I don’t typically dress nicely everyday and since she has a job she would look nice everyday. So here is my video of Eve Winters taking a picture a day.

I really enjoyed this assignment because for a second week in a row I got to portray my host character everyday. I love taking up the part of my host character because it is something different from my usual day and it allows me to be more creative.

This is a mashup assignment worth 3.5 stars. I had to find an emoji that sort of matched a face my friend made in a picture. I use photoshop to make this photo.

this is another mashup assignment worth 4 stars. I put the ship from Titanic and made it sink in a scene from Forest Gump. I made this using Photoshop, I cut out the ship and put it subtly in the background.

Spooky Montage

This was a mash up assignment and it was worth 4 stars. This assignment was to put at least 3 assignments that you have done from the past and put them together into one cohesive final product. I started out with this assignment by going back through all of my audio I have created and narrowed it down to 3 that would kind of create a story line if you will. I started out with my spooky monologue that had been a moment where someone is dying and comes into contact with my host character the death whisperer. After that I put in the 911 Emergency audio with my host character reporting the death that she had witnessed. The last audio that I put in was sound put into emotion which was fear in my audio and I did all of this using audacity. It actually flowed really well in between the parts and I liked how it became one large story. I think that if I had any way to improve this I would put in elements that would combine them with more fluidity.

This is a mash up assignment and it’s worth 4 stars. The task of this assignment was to mash up two major movie scenes and to make it seem like it was meant to be there in the first place. I am a child at heart so I decided to put Lady and the Tramp with Beauty and the Beast. I took the scene where lady and the ramp are eating spaghetti together as if it was a fancy date with a candle lit dinner. I decided for this assignment to take my favorite character lumiere from Beauty and the Beast and replace the candle that was there and put him there instead. It makes it seem natural because there was a candle that was there and because the animals talk it wouldn’t be too surprising to have the candle also talking in the movie. I used luna pic to blend the images together and I made it an oval shape for Lumiere to make it seem like he isn’t standing out too much in the image. If there was anything that I could do to improve this assignment I would really like to have photoshop because I think with that I would be able to cut him out better and layer him in. I think that would really bring more authenticity to blending the two movie scenes together.

10 Seconds Worth of Favorites

I mashed up a few of my favorite songs to create a 10 second sound clip. Try to guess the songs and you can check your guesses by clicking on the links below:

Song 1, Song 2, Song 3, Song 4, Song 5, Song 6

This is a 3.5 star mashup assignment for Ds106 titled 10 Second Song Mashup. I created this by putting 6 of my favorite songs into GarageBand and then cutting them down into a 1-3 second clip.
