The point of this assignment was to create a place using only sound effects. For this process, I went to FreeSounds which is a free-use platform with thousands of user generated sounds. My goal was to make the listener feel as if they were sitting on a bench by a busy street. I searched for … Continue reading "Sounds of the Streets"

For one of my Audio Assignments this week, I decided to record and upload my own sound to Freesound, a free sound sharing platform. The assignment said to pick a sound that I thought was lacking from the website. I was inspired by my dad making us dinner. I heard him frying up some burgers … Continue reading "Burgers?"

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"

The assignment, Sound Effects Story, was one of my favorites for this week. It was so fun to create a whole story without any dialogue or visuals. To accomplish this, I first downloaded sound effects off of the website, Freesound. This website is filled with user-generated sound effects that all fall under free use. used … Continue reading "A Knight’s Tale"

I found this week to be very interesting. After reading The Vignelli Canon and many of the design resources for the week, I began to realize the importance of design in everyday life. I now notice design elements and choices in everyday items like bottles and containers. I will continue to use the resources given … Continue reading "A Halvetica Good Time"

You see them everywhere. Photos of beautiful landscapes or happy people cover with sayings like “Dream Big” and “Keep Calm and Carry On” or this: Motivational posters are supposed to give you a feeling of hope and inspire you to do great things. Well, maybe I don’t want to KEEP CALM! Sometimes these posters are … Continue reading "UNmotivated"

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"

Everywhere we look, we can find amazing examples of good (and sometimes not so good) design. Open the refrigerator and what do you see? Jars, bottles, cartons with logos and pictures begging you to choose them. Our mailboxes are full of advertisements, envelopes with company logos, fliers designed to capture our attention. This week we … Continue reading "Design Blitz Week 2"

Being a twenty year old girl, I am very familiar with snapchat and its functions. One thing that makes it … Continue reading "ily, ily not"

My chihuahua mix, Mo, is a goldmine when it comes to funny facial expressions. He is high strung, and loves to be the center of attention, so I knew he would be the perfect subject for a funny GIF assignment. To make my gif, I first found a funny video of Mo and our new … Continue reading "Um, excuse me?"

A white sandy beach, bright blue water and a chair. That is my idea of paradise. About now, I could use a little beach therapy. Since I am mid semester, I can’t leave but I can dream. The Destination Postcard assignment hit the mark for me. We were asked to find a picture and create … Continue reading "Paradise Found"
