Blog Stalk Week 6

This week on my creep around Integrated Media blogs… I actually went back a few weeks here and stalked around Tiana’s Blog, and checked out her ‘things that define me’ video. I always find it really interesting that when we’re asked to tell people about ourselves, we either become insanely shy or incapable of finding…

Week 6 Reflection / Problems

So this week was all about our submitting of our first K-Film (you can find mine here) So it seems like I was one of the few people who actually enjoyed their experience with Korsakow, but I have to admit, that I do think that was largely affected by the using of only two keywords…

I’m having no trouble putting the film together on Korsakow, however when I open it in my browser the film remains black, as if it’s unable to load. I’ve spoken…

IM Reading week 6

This weeks reading was all about the Essay Film. The article was “The Essay Film: Problems, Definitions, Textual Commitments” written by Laura Rascaroli. While I read the whole document, and don’t get me wrong it was pretty interesting, I found the most straightforward concept of the Essay Film was when Rascaroli quoted Nora Alter. I…
