Week Five Summary
This week was crazy for me. It was a week where I needed my time management skills. I was busy all last weekend and then went home in the middle of this week for a concert (which was super fun). So I only had 4 full days to get all my work done. It was a bit of a struggle, and I wasn’t able to complete everything I wanted to, but I got as much done as I could which is alright with me. Besides the craziness of the week, I enjoyed the assignments and daily creates. I am a […] -

Sound Creates Mood
Most people when they think of audio or movies they think big picture and the loudest sounds. Maybe even only the words that are coming out of someones mouth. I’d like to argue that the background sounds are really what makes the story complete. These sounds usually tell you the mood of the story by … -

Gameboy Advanced

Can you guess this song?
Where you able to get it? No? Eh, I figured because unless you were cultured like me you would have known that this song is none other than Earfquake from Tyler the Creator. I played this song heavily during the semester of Fall 2019. I was introduced to this song by one of my friends […] -
Humming my way downtown
As soon as I started you should know what this song is. It is a classic. From the King of Pop himself, Michael Jackson. Billie Jean is the song. When I first found this assignment I was trying to think of a modern-day song that I enjoy listening to. But this song instantly came into […] -
Radio Bumper
I remember back in my broke boy days when I would listen to the radio and they would have during the breaks they would summarize the purpose of the radio, and that is what I wanted to do here. My radio is about hip-hop music. Not just any hip-hop music but the biggest, illest, sweetest […] -

Radio Show Bumper

Sick Beats
by @lgperez19 February 14, 2020This project was definitely fun, but not easy. I watched a tutorial from a past student which helped a lot. I searched for 80s hip hop sound effects, but it sort of ended being something else. Let me know what you think. I used the following clips from... -

Audio Storytelling
When I think of the best stories, I think of the ones that make you feel like your there. They engage each of your senses. A person is more connected to a story when you perceive it in multiple ways. When multiple senses are stimulated, people will not only relate to your account but be … Continue reading "Audio Storytelling" -
