Activities for T 11/3

The Creative Gallery > You will make creative gallery linked to your blog, where you extend your topic through something (or several things) you make. What can you make? Whatever you want! You might: make an iPod-ready soundtrack for your project, using audio that you find or create; make a YouTube video; make a presentation with images and animation; make a remix of the project, mashing up text images…; what else? All of the above and more...

Over the next several classes we will cover tools and techniques for text production, audio, and video. By Thanksgiving break, you should have a good sense of one or more creations for your gallery. After Thanksgiving, classes will be devoted to working on your gallery and showing it off.

Creativity is inherent in multimedia. The author and the user blur together. Try detournement as a method... (but you can choose other approaches as well)

Dagwood explains!




Return to blog post > Think about a "creative response" to your topic. What will you do? What will you create?

Shared document > boiled down to outline/bullet points. Please go and read and see if you want to add or rearrange. Next step: each will write three paragraphs into the outline, emerging from your project.
