The Radio Bumper was one of the challenging assignments we had to due for Audio week (in my opinion) I was first going to incorporate music but then thought “Hey, this is a radio station that already plays music, lets do something different.” I started it off with a deep “eye-catching” voice saying “Ladies and Gentlemen…this is your DJ.” Then my voice which I would like to think is not very deep or creepy comes on introducing the radio station. Afterwards I put in people chatting and laughing to give off the feeling that people enjoy talking about and listening to DS106 radio station.

I used all of the sounds (except my own voice) from www.freesound.org – this website has been very helpful for Audio Week.

I used Final Cut Pro to put all the sounds together and make a pleasant transition from one sound to the next. However, I ran into some difficulty uploading it on to Sound Cloud and decided to record it onto SoundCloud through Final Cut Pro. Basically I played my radio bumper and recorded it at the same time on Sound Cloud. (I hope that made sense or wasn’t repetitive).

Below is a screen shot on Final Cut Pro of the finished product!

Enjoy
