    What’s Their Damage?

    by
    Hey everyone, I hope you’re staying healthy and safe! I’m really excited about the radio show my group put together. After meeting in person the week before spring break, we came up with a plan about how we were going to tackle the show. Most of our work was done in Google Docs (such as gathering the information on the criminals we’d be covering, figuring out what type of commercials and design elements we’d make). We all made our own logos/stickers/posters in Canva (mine is shown above) and we created our own bumpers and commercials for the show as well. I created a bumper about self-defense classes since and advertised for self- defense against criminals like the ones we discuss! For all the audio I created, I used Audacity (which by this project I finally feel very comfortable with). Since we, unfortunately, got sent home, we weren’t able to meet in person and record the show together as we had originally planned. Instead, I recorded my main part of the project (the information about Jeffrey Dahmer) at home, using my sister’s high tech microphone (she likes to sing/record music so that’s why she has it). Here’s a picture of it if you’re curious to see what it looks like! It looks pretty simple, but it was very sensitive and picked up so much background […]

    Week Eight

    by
    *Warning Longer Post, my Apologies!* Welp, this has been a week! 😂 Coming off of Spring Break, a time change, and now classes moving to online. It’s been odd that’s for sure! It’s a little more comforting to know that everyone seems to be in the same boat though. Sterling was able to lock down […]

    Keep On Rollin’

    by
    So, for our project we decided to read, listen and watch pre- and post-80’s content but that were based in the 80’s. Basically we observed how pre and post 80’s sentiment is different from one another. I read the book ‘Machines Like Me’ by Ian McEwan. The setting is in 1982 but it’s also very Read More

On Tuesday, Sterling reserved […]

    Radio Show Progress (Week 8)

    by
    Creating the radio show was just as fun as I thought it was going to be. Even with all the craziness with the cornovirus and school closing and becoming virtual, my group and I managed to produce a super cool radio show. The week before break we planned everything out that we needed to do, along with making all the components to go inside the show, such as the commercials and radio bumpers. Over break, Emily and Diana interviewed their parents (who were teens in the 80s) so we could use that in the show as well. Then, we all […]

    Week 2 Radio Show Progress

    by
    This week was a blast. We loved compiling everything together and learning how to do that by utilizing audacity! For this week everyone submitted their segments, bumpers, and commercials either to sound cloud and to the google drive folder or emailed them to me. I utilized a website to convert the files to MP3 format […]
