BLOG POST CINCO: DS106 Assignment B: Breaking Bad: The Trading Card Game

     I made a set of Breaking Bad trading cards for my ds106 assignment b, using an empty template of the Pokemon trading card game. The information on the cards explore specific aspects of the characters while still providing a fun read for others.
Creating them was a relatively simple process. I took photos that gave a good impression of the characters' presence and distinctness, resized them to fit the template allotted. The basic template was of the design used for the Walter card, I used Photoshop cs5 to change the colors, insert the appropriate symbols, and add text in the appropriate font. Each one took about 40-60 minutes to make, not challenging, but it did get a little  tedious at times.
 I chose the three most complex characters of the show: Gus the kingpin, Walter the master chemist, and Jesse the troubled criminal. When making this assignment, I thought of ways that students can analyze characters from literature and film in a very specific, yet fun manner. They have to fill in the moves section of the trading cards which will demonstrate their insight into what they would be reading.
