Assignment 1:
http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/character-resume/
Using either Microsoft Word, creating your own webpage, or using a website like LinkedIn, create a “fake” resume for a fictional person or character of your choice. Add detailed descriptions and make the resume relevant to the character. Resume must include a profile, work history, education, and skills. Locations, job positions, and companies can be made up! Use your creativity!
3 Stars!
This assignment can be found at my Characters webpage at, http://bchristi1361.wix.com/gambinodeluca#!portfolio/c1fj6. I chose to do this assignment as I saw it fit the building of our new site. Gambino is not fully in his role yet so this was a bit challenging. I only included elementary school in his education section as i found it funny that because he’s a mobster he only went to elementary school! I downloaded a template off of Microsoft to create the template and that was very straight forward. I used print screen to include he resume on my site as well as here. Enjoy!
Assignment 2:

Build a Pinterest page of at least 20 pins for a character of your choice. Search for pins that relate to your character and things that he or she would want to pin for themselves. Use X-Ray Goggles from Hackasaurus to modify the board further to personalize it for your character. Bonus points if you build a page and have visitors to your blog guess which character you picked!

For this assignment I made a pinterest account. This assignment caught my eye as I have always been intrigued about Pinterest. I found so many things that I wanted to “pin” for myself but kept remembering that this was for Gambino! I easily found 20 things to pin and the majority of Gambino’s pins were money, guns, and alcohol! Pretty much explains my character!
Assignment 3:

Combine two or more animials or plants to create a new creature. Use GIMP or other photoshop program to combine the images of animal. When your done post it in to your blog with some description of your new animal.
3 Stars!
This assignment was incredibly goofy and I loved it. This is “Bear dog”, Gambino’s best friend and number one pal. This creature is a dog(German Short hair) and a grizzly bear’s head. These are two of Gambino’s favorite animals and because he is such a bad ass he was able to combine the two into one animal. I created this through GIMP and was able to use the lasso tool to crop the bears head. I though the final product turned out pretty well and it was fairly easy to accomplish. Overall and funny and relaxing assignment.
Assignment 4:
http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/youre-doing-it-wrong/
I like to say this phrase a lot “You’re doing it wrong.” Just as dry and monotone as I can manage. If it’s timed perfectly, I can’t amuse myself better any other way. Your assignment is to find the best possible photo you can of someone or something “doing it wrong.” Sometimes people drive the wrong way on a one-way street or there are signs or stairs that point or lead nowhere. Find something wrong and riff on it. Two stars, cause it’s a photo that might take some hunting but no editing is required.
2 Stars!
This was somewhat hard to figure out how to relate this theme to Gambino. I chose a picture of a gangster(Al Capone) getting arrested. If Gambino were to see this he would for sure have a nice chuckle. To Gambino this would certainly be “You’re doing it wrong”. Gambino has never been caught and with the way he rolls he most likely never will. No editing was necessary for this assignment and it was a breeze uploading into this post. Enjoy!
As you lot can probably already assume, the Internet is something very weird for me. So this whole Pintrest thing? Very odd. I found some great scarves, supper recipes, and a way to filter my emotions for missing Don.

This assignment was worth 2 points. Here is the link: http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/youre-a-pinteresting-character/
So here is what I have done and what I am currently doing.
So, Bev sent me this assignment earlier to create and upload my resume. I guess she’s decided I need some qualifications in order to work for our new company. I guess I could have fluffed it up a bit, but I think honesty is the best policy, so I just wrote what was true.
I’m assuming this will suffice, considering Bev has already hired me. I’m pretty sure she’s only asking for HR reasons, but I must say I really was surprised by my skills and experience after I started to write them out all out.
It was pretty easy to create this. I wrote it up and then played with font and design in order to make it as aesthetically pleasing as possible (something I tend to strive for as an artist). I then converted it into a PDF so that I could grab a picture of it and then upload here for our files.
I did the You’re A Pinteresting Character assignment (two stars) for the leader of The Winter Association, Arnold Winter. It’s full of things that interest him and what he enjoys researching. I also added some personal things that explain why he is the way he is. They’ll be spoilers if I explain them right now. I plan on expanding upon it next week or some other time. But, I welcome whatever theories you all have. 
I did the assignment, How it all began (3 stars). I thought it was a perfect assignment for expanding upon The Winter Association. It can be found here.
Yeah, they’re kind of a cult.
