“Reading” Movies?
I learned from “How to Read a Movie”, that reading a movie is basically analyzing the scene. Roger Ebert mentioned an example that he heard from film critic, John West. The example is that you can analyze films just like how football coaches study game plays. I never really thought of these two things as […] -

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.

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 […] -

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" -

Mystery Music
I absolutely love music, so this assignment was right up my alley. The idea of simplifying your favorite song to just the instrumental version is such a cool concept. By taking away the vocals of the song, I heard different parts in the instrumental version that I never caught in the original. It was very … Continue reading "Mystery Music" -

From Subways to Helvetica
Massimo Vignelli. I had not heard his name until today yet his influence has surrounded me my entire life. In 1950, pre-computer age, he created one of the most used fonts of all time, Helvetica. His simplistic, modern style can also be seen in logos, interior design, furniture and more. When interviewed for an … Continue reading "From Subways to Helvetica" -
