starting class blogs (and vlogs)

The purpose of this blog assignment is to get in the habit of regularly writing about your experiences with and around the 6X1 class. What did you think, for example, about the first night of class where you scratched (and painted) on film? Was it the first time you ever did anything like this? Did the experience give you any ideas? What about when we saw the projected loop?

As the semester goes on, there will be class readings and assignments, or things that happen during class, which should provide good food for future writings.

In the coming weeks, we will look as a class at the process of creating video postings. If you have a digital still camera with a movie function and a USB cable, you can do this quite easily. And when you post your one-minute video, be sure to provide an explanation (it can be short) on what promted you to make the movie - or what you like about it.
