Daily Create #tdc3068

@eng304cripps @ds106dc With today's daily create, I thought to share the most famous supernatural biking incident in history. GIF I made from a Youtube video featuring the "E.T." movie – Link to original can be found here; https://t.co/6sehnHlNWL #tdc3068 #ds106 #ET pic.twitter.com/aFlCBeDa5R

When approaching this assignment I was bit confused on how to handle the “remarkable fashion” that was needed for a post on bikes. I swore I had an old photo of a metal-work frog standing on a bikes handlebars but could not find such a thing in my albums. This Gif was actually a spur of the moment idea as I had just been reminded of the Bike flying seen from the movie “E.T.” I personally have mixed feelings on the movie and it’s wrinkly protagonist but I’ll leave things at that. I’m glad I was able to imagine something for this assignment with a fun and silly Gif! My original Tweet was going to have a caption, “What going 88 miles can achieve” similar to something from “Back to the Future” but I thought against it.

I used the webtool Gifrun in order to create the GIf of the bikes taking off. I linked the original Youtube video in my tweet but I’ll link it here as well. Hope you enjoy!

I chose this gif to demonstrate riding a bike in a “remarkable” fashion because a lot of my friends used to send this to me saying they “found the perfect bike for me” because I’m short. Hilarious. All joking aside, that actually looks super hard to do and I have to give that man props! I think I can call that rather remarkable

Okay this daily create was difficult for me, I tried to be creative but also involve my theme of children. Unfortunately this isn’t my best one. But, I had to do a daily create because I’ve had an extremely busy week and have barely had the time to do the work due that day. I wish I knew how to edit this better, it’s blurry and the “transparent” bike picture has lines through it, but that’s learning right? I thought this actually came out hilarious, the position Connor is in is perfect, he actually looks like he’s riding a bike, I figured this was the best usage of a bike in a remarkable fashion, a baby riding a bike! I used google slides to create this by just overlapping the pictures and sending them backwards.
