Props to “Unto Others”

Since no one else signed up to discuss this episode I figured I would kick it old school and just blog about it as I couldn’t let the classic lines and plot in this episode not be given the props they deserve.

There was a lot going on in this …

Daily Create Entries

There has always been something about TDC that I enjoy. It only takes 15 minutes to do an assignment, but they require so much creativity.

The first assignment I submitted was was a #TBDS or throw back digital storytelling. I got the idea from the endless #tbt I see on …

A Comedy Remix

Class Portrait

Kisha’s Daily Create was really inspiring because it incorporated so much into a simple daily create. She took everyone’s Avatars (including Stringer, McNulty, Avon, and other Wire characters) and created a “class portrait” in the words of Jim Groom. A very simple thought that goes a long way. …

Thoughts on WireBuyers

I enjoyed listening to the WireBuyers radio show. I think the group did a great job producing their segment. It was nice that Jim and Paul set it up so creators were on Twitter as we were live tweeting. I had a lot of questions that were answered almost instantly.…
