So I've been watching Ben Rimes' posts for DS106 go by and I keep thinking I should give that a try. I was inspired by the Return to the Silent Era assignment, so after watching a couple other people's submissions I figured I'd jump in. One of the things keeping from trying any ds106 assignment before was a lack of expensive software. Ben always uses high end programs like Adobe Premier and Photoshop that I don't have. How could I possibly do any of the cool stuff he does. Well, I decided to see if I could do the whole thing using only my iPad. It also gave me an excuse to buy Avid Studio, an app I've been looking at since it came out. Apps I used: Avid Studio $4.99 - For video editing Blux Movie (free right now) - I shot the movie with Blux. PhotoShop Express and SketchBook Express (free) - To create the placards. I added the text in Avid Studio iSuper8 (free) - Final aging effects added.
