Write A Short Story With Images

Tuesday, September 1st, 2009

Today you are going to write a short story with images.

You can use either one of these sites:

Tell A Story, where you’ll pick a painting to use in your story, type it, and also record it.

Five Card Flickr Story, where you’ll pick five photos and then tell a story about them.

Please copy and paste the link to your story in the comments section of this post.

Add Lines To A Movie

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Pick one of the short movies at Bombay TV.

You can choose to either record what you want the actors to say, or write them as “subtitles.”

Here’s an example:

Mr. Ferlazzo’s Movie

Once you email it to yourself, the site will show you the link address to copy and paste in the comments section of this post.

If you want, you may work with a partner to create the movie.

Record A Talking Monkey

Monday, August 31st, 2009

Today, you can make a Talking Monkey. You will record your own voice and email it to yourself. Then you will copy and paste the link in the comments section of this post.

In your message, say:

1) Your first name (do not say your last name)

2) Your favorite movie and why it’s your favorite movie.

3. Your favorite book and why it’s your favorite book.

Here is an example:

Mr. Ferlazzo’s Talking Monkey

My name is Mr. Ferlazzo. My favorite movie is called Casablanca, and I like it because the acting is great and the good guys win. My favorite book is Bread and Wine. I think it’s my favorite because it was my father’s favorite.
