project two
project two for digital media production.
1. think of something that interests you. it could be a band, a band you're in, a cafe, cooking, dancing, DIY, facebook, family, fashion, film, food, justice, money, music, newspapers, philosophy, photography, poetry, politics, religions, san francisco, science, sports, surfing, tv, video games, or anything else you choose.
2. take many photographs of that thing. select your favorite.
3. upload the photograph to flickr, title and tag it, put it into a new flickr set, and title the set.
4. take some time - a few hours, a day, a few days.
5. then, take some more photographs of this thing that interests you. upload them to your already existing flickr set. title and tag the photographs. at this point in the project, your flickr set should include 3-5 photographs.
6. when finished and before class on wednesday, october 27, tweet it. be sure to include a link to your flickr set.
7. in class on wednesday, october 27, be ready to demo your work.
8. keep in mind that you will be adding new photographs to this flickr set throughout the rest of the semester.
rules and suggestions:
a. follow all directions.
b. be sure to select something that truly interests you. if after a few days you are no longer interested in photographing that thing which days ago fascinated you, start over and select a new topic.
c. if you have no work to demo for wednesday's demo day, do not come to class.

flickr assignment #3
flickr assignment #3 for digital media production.
today in class, i shared some observations about your photographs of gleeson library, or flickr assignment #2, and briefly discussed some examples that i thought really worked: bryce's Midterm Week; yakuri's UFO?!; evelyn's comment on yakuri's Dizzy Stairs; chris's Great comic book selection at Gleeson!; and quincy's set PR6023.A93 J64. exciting work, folks!
for flickr assignment #3, i want each of you to:
1. do it again.
2. this time, be careful to follow all steps: limit yourself to 3-5 photos, tag them, title them, and add one or some or all of them to the Gleeson Library at USF flickr group.
3. last time, i encouraged you to include human beings in your photographs. this time, i required you to include at least one human in at least one of your photos.
4. consider including librarians and library staff in your photographs.
5. following today's creative commons lecture by shawn calhoun, think about and set your creative commons license on your flickr account (go to "Your Account" and select "Privacy and Permissions"). have questions? use twitter to ask your fellow DMPers, me, or shawn for help.
6. once finished and before class on friday, tweet about it. be sure your tweet includes a link to your flickr set.

a. follow all directions.
