Greetings from DS106
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
Assignment Details Tell us where you are, where you’re from, or simply where you’d rather be and build a greeting card. Personal Experience I couldn’t quite figure out how to insert a text to an image on GIMP therefore I did this project on Microsoft Word (Woohoo)! I simply picked a photo that I took in Ethiopia and chose one that I felt represented Ethiopia in a ‘non-stereotypical’ manner but still reflected Africa. Through Word I changed the contrast and brightness of the picture. After I did that I inserted a text box and made the ‘fill’ transparent so the ...
Minimal movement gif
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
For this DS106 assignment it asked for as minimal movement as possible in a gif. So after a while of searching for a good scene to use my boyfriend linked me to a great scene in the show Suits. There is 2 layers here, the top layer is a still image from the scene where I cut out the eyes. Underneath I had the scene continue so that only his eyes are moving. This was fun, I have never made a gif like this before http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/say-it-like-the-peanut-butter/
Letters in your surroundings
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
I made this for my DS106 assignment B. I actually had a lot of fun with this one. The assignment said “Create your name from objects in your environment. Use either Creative Commons images, ones of your own, or a combination of both to find the letters of your name hidden in your surroundings. Edit the photos to work together and arrange them together as a single image. Have fun and enjoy searching for creative expressions of “your” letters!” So that’s what I did. Without realizing it…I apparently chose a theme for my photos because they all ended up being ...
Honey, I Shrunk the Kids
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
Assignment Details Take a picture of your subject (grandparents, pet, yourself) and put it into a totally different background in which they appear abnormally too small or too large. Think of Honey, we shrunk the kids… http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/a-whole-new-world/ Personal Experience Once again, I am not very familiar with photo editing programs so this was my VERY first time doing something like this. If I were to be completely honest, I would have to admit that I had to Skype my friend in Japan to walk me through this process. I can admit that the ‘quality’ and “believe – ability” of this ...
The Way It Should’ve Been
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
So for our DS106 assignment 2, I went with a FanFic assignment entitled, “The Way It Should Have Been,” where we were supposed to take a scene from a movie or book that we like and change it. I actually chose a scene from a recent episode of Sons of Anarchy. I know that’s a TV show, but this scene has really effected me over the last few weeks. In the original scene (spoiler alert), my favorite character on the show, Opie is shockingly murdered in prison. I decided this scene was perfect to “enhance.” So without further adieu: “No!” ...
Jareth – Magic Trading Card

For another DS106 assignment I chose to make a movie trading card. I wanted to remix not only the movie but an iconic trading card template from the famous card game, Magic the Gathering. Here it is, I hope everyone likes it! I had a lot of fun with this one. I did everything you see here with Photoshop CS5. http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/movie-trading-cards/

Odyssey on Maps
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
I created a Google Map based on the Odyssey intended to use in future classes in school. I would like to use this activity again for other books as well. I am thinking along the lines of Mark Twain, or Jane Austen. I am a visual person so something like this could be very useful in class and something fun for students to create themselves. https://maps.google.com/maps/ms?msid=217151320616601773639.0004c9ac824d32c546ba5&msa=0
Voice Morphing to the Max on DS106
So far, 0 people have completed this assignment and it has 0 views.
Hey guys, I did the voice morphing assignment on DS106 with myself and a video Ted talk that Bobby Mcferrin did. I was so inspired that I created a song out of it, which took me a few obsessive days. I hope you guys like it! Here’s the link to my soundcloud musician page: http://soundcloud.com/shinybaubles/pentatonic-expectations-with Cheers!
