    Weekly Summary: WEEK EIGHT: Pandemic Podcast!

    by
    This week also went very well just like the previous week; however, there were some issues that popped up. Unfortunately, we were unable to record at the vocal booth in the Multimedia Editing Lab because of reservation problems. Apparently, students who are only taking specific “music” classes are allowed access to that room. This was very annoying because we planned […]

    Weekly Summary: WEEK SIX

    by
    Week six is probably my favorite week. This week was the most challenging, but I also had a lot of fun at the same time. The program I used for this week was GIMP. GIMP is an alternative to Photoshop. Since I cancelled the Adobe membership a few years ago, and it’s just too expensive I decided to download the […]

    Weekly Summary: WEEK FIVE

    by
    Week five was a lot of fun. I thought it would be super challenging because I do not have experience with audio editing. Initially, I had a little trouble downloading the FFmpeg. I kept checking the diagnostics and it kept displaying the message “Error: Failed to load shared library.” After a few tries I was finally able to have the […]

    Moon Graffiti: Time In Space

    by
    I’m gonna be honest. I do not enjoy listening to podcasts and audio storytelling (apart from music) in general. I tend to become very bored very fast. I also get distracted very quickly and realize I don’t really know what is going on. I’m more of a visual person and and I understand the story better. However, the sound effects […]

    Weekly Summary: WEEK ONE

    by
    This week was super challenging! Signing up for the accounts was not difficult; however, setting up the WordPress website was a challenge. Initially, I thought setting up the domain and subdomain was going to be a struggle even though it was step one. But I really like the directions the UMW website provided. The instructions actually made it easier to […]

    What’s (Y)our Story

    by
    I am little confused regarding this question; however, this got me thinking about my classmate’s WordPress websites. Our websites are basically “About Me” pages and what we believe in and are passionate about. The websites will showcase our personalities. Our photos and other illustrations are incorporating storytelling in web design. I am not sure about what our future assignments will […]
