For my next audio assignment, I chose to create a Character Bird Call (**). The task was the create a call or something that would attract a character from a TV show/movie/book. I chose to call for Meredith Grey from the hit TV show Grey’s Anatomy.

I downloaded my sounds from Freesound.org. I searched under the tag ‘Hospital’ and that’s where I found the heartbeat, surgery sounds, coffee being poured sounds. I cut and piled the sounds together in Audacity.

Meredith Grey is a surgeon at the hospital in the TV show. I chose these specific sounds because in the show, Meredith is obsessed with surgery! It is really her life. She loves hearing the sounds of being in the O.R. {operating room} and hearing a heart beat. She was not able to perform surgery at one point {for a reason that I am not going to spoil if you have not watched the show} and she went crazy! She had people call her to tell her their every move about the surgery and the different medical cases. I chose to have the coffee sound bit at the end because at the end of a surgery, the coffee stand is the first stop. After scrubbing out, of course!

My inspiration for picking this character came from the fact that it comes on Thursday nights. Tonight is Thursday. I cannot wait!!!!!
