Week 12 - Adding a comic to a blog post

Don't forget to choose your graduation seminar.

Did you practice for your audio clip with Kevin? If not, do that. If yes, you can post your audio on the page where the related text is.

Next ...
Want to do some grammar practice? No? I didn't think so. Let's make a comic instead.

Make Beliefs Comix
Here's a comic I made with Make Beliefs Comix, an online comic building site. The scene is from 'Annie Hall,' Woody Allen's most famous movie. Here's the original scene from the movie.


Here's another comic from the same movie, but after the character, Alvy, has become an adult. And here's the original movie clip (scene starts at 1:40).






The comic below is from a Quentin Tarantino movie. Do you know it? The comic creator is called Strip Creator.














Here's the actual scene from "Pulp Fiction," (from 1:00 minute mark) for the dialog above. (The comic was edited slightly to remove profanity.)

Some ideas:

  • Movie or TV scene - like above
  • Manga scene - like above
  • Sports - a dialog from the news, such as a reporter and player; or an incident that happened on the field; a conversation between two players; something 
  • Restaurants, cafes or bars - a dialog between a customer and staff, a dialog between two customers or two staff members
  • Cooking - a guy telling someone how to cook something 
  • Or have some characters talking about the content of your blog post

Save the comic (or take a screen shot) and paste it into your blog post. Send me a link so I know where to find it! 

You can delete the comic if you like after the course grades have been given. (But you don't have to delete it.)

Blog Post #5 is due next week - Dec. 13.
