Weekly Summary 3
This week was all about audio and how that aspect can really help create or change a story. I’ll have to admit, this has not been my most favorite topic to study. I wasn’t (and still aren’t) very good at the Audacity software and learning the ways of creating audio. I liked being able to… -
“Moon Graffiti” Techniques
For these “Moon Graffiti” techniques, I listened to This American Life Episode 484: Dopplegangers by Fred Armisen and Ira Glass. In this about 57 minute episode, I listened to the certain aspects which made up their storytelling techniques and what they did to really bring the story to life. First of all, I really liked… -
TED Radio Hour and ScottLo
For this assignment, we were to listen and learn about audio techniques and ways to use audio to the best of our ability. For the TED Radio Hour videos, just by listening to their different techniques (one using sound, the other without) I learned how much of a difference the two videos worked. By using… -
Storytelling from the Ira Glass and Jad Abumrad Videos
From these videos, they discussed the primary building blocks of how audio and storytelling can come together as one. From Ira Glass we learned about the aspects of storytelling. First, he recommended setting a sequence of actions, then raising questions to those actions. By doing so, you draw in your audience, as you would with… -
Weekly Summary 3
The assignments for this week were all very new to me because I think I am the most unfamiliar with Sound Storytelling. I am glad that there were several examples and resources to look at. At the beginning of the week, I started watching Ira Glass and Jad Abumrad explain the basics of sound storytelling. […] -

My Own Ted Talk!
by @angelk1208 June 9, 2019For my last audio assignment, I decided to do the “Ted Talk Pronunciation Practice” prompt. I always struggled with giving presentations. The worst part was always getting my words jumbled around. All the random pauses and stutters are what I need to improve. Thankfully with this assignment, it’s just audio, which I think is a […] -
Can you hear me now?
Week three is completed! I think that this week was my favorite so far. Audio production is something that has fascinated me for a long time, whether it has to do with music or radio shows. I really enjoyed learning about the processes that go into producing podcasts and other forms of audio entertainment. I … Continue reading "Can you hear me now?" -

Not So Successful Moon Landing
I absolutely love anything with an eery feel to it. That is why I enjoyed listening to the Moon Graffiti so much. The podcast took a joyous day in American history, the first moon landing, and acted out how Buzz Aldrin and Lance Armstrong would have reacted if they crashed and were stranded. The producers … Continue reading "Not So Successful Moon Landing" -

Weekly Summary 3
THIS WEEK in DST106… via GIPHY It was audio week! The only real audio media I have experience with is listening to the podcast Armchair Expert by Dax Shepard. It’s an entertaining podcast where he interviews actors, journalists, and really anyone who says yes. I listen to it on my long car rides from VA to SC. Other than that, I don’t really have any experience with any audio production. The week started by listening to audio storytelling experts Ira Glass and Jad Abumrad to gain some insight and knowledge, instead of jumping in headfirst. It was great to get some perspective before I started this not only with Glass and Abumrad, but by listening to some great examples of audio storytelling! Listening is a lot of thinking. via GIPHY Next we re-invigorated my fear of space by listening to some astronauts get stranded up in the unknown. It wasn’t real, but it might as well been with how well it was told! This kind of work is something I would like to keep as an example to aspire to be as great at storytelling as this piece is! Then it was time to get my hands dirty with some audio assignments. This week I… Followed a day in the life of Pam Beasley using only sound effects, via GIPHY Used a classic Spongebob beat to remix a tongue twister, Introduced you to the sounds of Pawley’s Island, and made a mixtape to reminisce on my time spent in London. via GIPHY A little preview of one of my favorite songs on the list to entice you to listen… I also did daily creates for June 3rd, June 5th, June 6th, and June 8th. My favorite part of the week was going through other the websites of other classmates and seeing their progress throughout the week! I commented on a couple of websites and tweets. The hardest part of this week for me was figuring out Audacity. I had a lot of trouble downloading it, I couldn’t download the plugins to use MP3s which made it very hard. Because I was having trouble I tried to find alternative routes, which was also a bust. It wasn’t until later that I saw people were using other forms of audio mastering, but it was too late. So the biggest hurdle for me was Audacity. Later when I have no deadlines, I’d like to play around with the software on my own time to really get to know how to use it. But I’m proud that I tried, because I wouldn’t have known if I didn’t! Until next week! via GIPHY
