Remix Culture Movie

This is my showcase presentation for the project.

It in some way involves this list of programs and tools:

Paint
Powerpoint
BeFunky
Windows Movie Maker
Audacity
Jazzware
Freecorder
Three different file converters.

It isn't the most stringent research project. It's all about the tools. I have made a presentation giving basic details on remix culture, using a variety of interesting pictures, video and music to give it vibrancy.

The song during the pictures after 'Dude, You have no Qu'ran' is a MIDI composition of mine on Jazzware.

Note: The youtube video I link immediately after the pictures was intended to be in the movie itself but I had troubles with corrupt files. My only option was to provide that link which rather ruins the flow. I recommend pausing at that moment to look at the youtube video first.

Double Note: The sound plays up on YouTube aswell. It's 5am. I"m going to bed. Marj, if you want the video properly email me I'll send it. If that still doesn't work which it probably won't come to my house.

Facebook on Toondoo

Sometimes the only way to really tap into the quirky and eclectic nature of Facebook is to let the horse's mouth do the talking. Here I have used the to be honest tedious, but very enjoyable and certainly unique program TOONDOO to create a lighthearted comic based entirely around a set of around eight or nine anonymous facebook posts in the appearing on my wall in the psst 48 hours.

Any line surrounded by speech marks is a direct facebook quote. Enjoy. :)
