    DS106 Phone Call

    by
    This was the last assignment I completed for the 10 stars required in Audio Assignments for the week. This one required me to tell a story, basically pretend I was making a phone call, and add background noise to make it more realistic. I decided to incorporate my secret agent, Margo, into this assignment. I scripted it so that Margo was leaving Moscow to fly back to London with top-secret information she acquired in Russia. She makes an off-handed comment about how the weather was bad and that she would make an arrangement with a man named Thomas to pass along the information. I ended the call with Margo having to board her plane. To signal this, I inserted the background noise of a stewardess announcing it was time to board the plane. To complete the assignment, I recorded myself as Margo through the Voice Memo app on my phone and then uploaded it to my computer and transferred it to Audacity. I got the background noise of the airport from freesounds.org and uploaded the recording to Audacity. The assignment was relatively is to complete, it just required some creativty.

    DS106 Radio Commerical

    by
    This assignment served a couple of purposes the week. I used it first as part of the 10 stars required this week in Audio Assignments and also as a possible commercial for my group’s radio show next week. Creating the commercial was really easy. I recorded myself talking into the Voice Memo app on my iPhone and then uploaded the recording to my computer where I transferred it to Audacity. I also used the Voice Memo app to record some music to play as the intro and end of the commercial. The commercial focuses on my group’s radio show theme: spies and reality or fiction and is designed as means to make people interested in tuning in to listening next week!
