I see another round of DS106 has started, I have too many balls in the air at the moment to do more than watch it flow through my reader. Then I saw Week 2: Bootcamping It<\/a>:<\/p>\n

This week, we\u2019re also going to ask you to do your very first digital storytelling assignment from the ds106 Assignment Repository<\/a>. The Repository is a Web site filled with new media assignments that we\u2019ll be using extensively this semester. Your first assignment is \u201cSay it Like the Peanut Butter<\/a>,\u201d in which you\u2019ll be creating an animated gif of a clip from your favorite (or least favorite) movie. You must also follow the instructions on the assignment page to ensure that your contribution shows up on the Assignment Repository site.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\nI downloaded the flv from youtube, opened in in Quicktime and copied a wee section. Opened this saved movie in Fireworks 8 and deleted some frames. I also auto levelled the images as it is a fairly dark scene. I am guessing I’ve added something to a plain QuickTime install to allow it to open flv files.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
