PicMonkey

Today we went to a web 2.0 site called PicMonkey which allows you to edit your pictures to fit a theme, in this case Halloween. Many of the options were free, allowing you to make very elaborate zombies, vampires, witches, ect. In this case I created a vampire. Although I overdid the blood effect on the chin, I did like the way the teeth came out. I also added Tattoos because I thought they made the picture look more cult like.

Photo Story

This week we worked with acid music studio and photo story to make a presentation about a place we have been or a hobby. I found acid music easy to work with because it was similar to the "garage band" program on mac. I made my pictures of Boulder and had the music change with different types of pictures.

Storybird

This book is intended for grades 1-3. I enjoyed the simplicity of story bird however this simplicity also was its biggest weakness. There was little advanced changes that could be made making it dull to work with. However the artwork was superb and I was very impressed with it. Storybird could be used for a fun english project for extra credit in the future. The moon has been stolen and now John must go to the land of Droom to find it. On his journey finds good and evil, and he must persevere through it all. Join John as he goes on a wild adventure to save the moon. John E. Stash and the Tree of Cosmo
