This weeks DS106 assignment was to choose a bad photo, apply a vintage filter, and attach a quote in a helvetica font. For this assignment, I used a blurry picture of my friend sliding down the stairs last Halloween. After editing the picture in VSCO by applying a vintage looking filter, I chose a quote I felt was fitting to the image. For obvious reasons, I chose the quote, “Spread Your Wings and Fly”, as he is soaring down the staircase rail with his arms spread open.
After contemplating what three individual/characters to use for the DS106 meme troll quotes assignment, I decided to use three influential figures that people may see on TV every day. Individual one is displayed as the graphic or image of my meme. If it isn’t obvious, the individual displayed is the man, the myth, the legend, Dr. Phil. For those of you who’ve never watched Dr. Phil, which I don’t know how that’s possible, he provides the most comprehensive forum on mental health issues in the history of television. Once I had decided on Dr Phil representing my meme image, I then need to decide who I would quote that would in some way would resemble something people could imagine Dr. Phil saying. My mind instantly went to another daytime host that provides positivity and help for the community. So I decided to use a quote from the one and only Oprah Winfrey. Oprah like Dr. Phil works to change the lives of others, so I used her quote that states, “where there is no struggle, there is no strength”. After identifying two out of the three individuals I would use, I then needed to decide who would be responsible and take credit for the quote. The obvious choice was yet another inspirational talk show host, Ellen DeGeneres. For my meme troll DS 106 assignment, I chose three individuals who are bright, intelligent, and look to better the community.
