Audio as it relates to story telling can be used to express the mood of a particular scene or part of that story. For instance, in the movie The Shining, every time the boy saw the ghosts of the twin sisters I believe it was the same theme music playing; and that music expressed the … Continue reading Audio in Storytelling

In the first picture of the boy running in front of the truck there would be very loud and anxious music in the background.  The driver of the truck would be peeping the horn very loudly, the bystanders would be yelling for the boy to watch out and get out of the street. Then in … Continue reading Last Laugh

Audio in storytelling is what defines the audiences perspective so to say. It is how they can take something an interpret it into something else. The same with the audio in film/video especially audio in horror films. I really liked how they talked about the spacing in terms of audio and compared to pauses in […]

After listening to Moon Graffiti, I almost felt like I was on the moon with Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin. There are so many distinct sounds in this story that really made it come to life. For example, when the shuttle crashed on the moon, there were very convincing sounds played that made it seem… Read More

So today’s daily create (9/23/15) was to make art in the foam of a latte.  I am a broke college kid who can’t afford fancy coffee X_X so instead I added some effects to my morning coffee brewed in my kitchen. :3 I used the picture editor Pixlr yet again because yeah. Also as a … Continue reading %Latte Art w/out A Latte%

This week like the past few weeks, I have no idea what were talking about. Not in the sense of not knowing our focus for the week I get the visual aspect of the assignments. However, as many people point out I apparently was robbed of a childhood and watch Pocohantas and any disney movie […]

So for one of my audio assignments this week I did the “Solo Vocal Trio” project worth 3.5 stars. I chose to sing Rolling In The Deep by Adele because the assignment suggested we use an acoustic instrumental and that song doesn’t have much going on in the background. There are parts that get to … Continue reading ~Rolling In The Deep~

We were asked to create a Radio Bumper, mine was about 10 seconds longer than asked. But I love the song that was playing, took me about 5 trys to find a decent clip that I liked. And like usual didn’t really like the final product, but it was my first try so I can […]

There is no more iconic of a voice than Don LaFontaine. His voice dons many movie trailers and other things. There is a competitor coming up on the scene however, and that guy is me. I did the voice over for a movie trailer of my mundane struggle of procrastinating on my homework. Will I … Continue reading Procrastination Preview →

For this speech I found and spoke a spam email I got today. This email is a phishing email that looks to steal your password by getting you to “update” your mailbox. When I read this email I add on the truth of the email to the very end. This is a one star audio … Continue reading Speaking Spams Mind →

When listening to the Monkees as a kid I head a lyric that heavily confused me. They had a song named “I’m a Believer” and at one point I believe that they said “and then I saw her face, now I’m going to leave her.” This is heavily wrong because it says “and then I … Continue reading Confusion in Monkees →

For this assignment, I picked the first page (133) of Last Laugh from Tales of the Crypt to give an audio analysis on. I believe that the writing makes it fairly easy to imagine how sounds would effect the story. For example, there are clear signs given off to portray that emphasis should be used (such as bolding a… Read More

For 3.5 stars this week, I completed the Music Mashup Assignment.  The purpose of this assignment was to take two distinct songs and mash them together.  I chose The Phoenix by Fall Out Boy, and Alles Neu by Peter Fox.  These two... Continue Reading →

  I hate to go to karaoke, the only one that can stand my bad singing is my hubby. But for this week assignment I choose to do Solo Vocal Trio that is worth 3 1/2 start. So I decided to sing Austin by Blake Shelton, I did some cheating and have the lyrics with … Continue reading Austin- My version →

“That’s Not How I Would Have Done It” is a show where we talk about a work that we consumed this week and what we liked and disliked about it’s writing and execution, and most importantly, what we would have done differently if it had been us producing it.  A lot of compromise goes into … Continue reading That’s not how I would have done it (Radio Show Idea)

For the radio show that we will be doing later this semester, I have a few ideas of possible topics or themes that we could possibly incorporate. The first idea, keeping with the theme of the course, is having a session dedicated to solely scary stories and tall tales that are featured and easily found… Read More

Today I really missed my mama. Daddy used to tell me some things about her in between his yells yells yells. She loved to take pictures. I wish I could have seen some of her pictures.
