I’ll admit it, I really dropped the ball this week. It’s stressful finding a balance between this class and my other courses. I will work on that. Now that midterm week is over it should be easy getting back into the swing of digital story telling. We created a google doc for our radio show … Continue reading "Week 7 Summary"

This week had its ups and downs. I really enjoyed starting our radio show! Personally the audio section is my least favorite so far. I hate the way I sound on a recorder so this week has not helped. But, I did learn how to do a lot more with sound cloud than I originally […]

This week was a very busy week for almost everyone in my group. It’s the week before spring break, and all professors want

Okay here is all the stuff I have completed for our radio show ! First we have my bumper : https://soundcloud.com/emily-toney-538536355/audio-recording-on-thursday I really didn’t understand the concept of a bumper until I really listened to the radio one morning. I was super nervous about the bumper because it was the first audio recording I created […]

The week before spring break is always busy and this week was busier than usual. Between work, school, and my internship I completed daily creates, radio show promos, and 10 stars worth of assignments. Let’s review this week: I completed assignments all of which used audacity. Using audacity’s many features such as pitch change and […]

I created a bumper sticker for our radio show. Our show is based off of the phrase “you might be a cowboy if…” which is a spin off of Jeff Foxworthy’s “you might be a redneck if..” I figured since our ds106 section is called tales of ds106, I would use that. I came up […]

For the Radio Show Design Project, I had to create either a poster, bumper sticker, or logo that helped represent the radio show

Our radio show is a spin off of Jeff Foxoworthy’s stand up ‘you might be a redneck if..’ however ours is you might be a cowboy if. So far we’ve split up work into bumpers, promos, and commercials. We’re each contributing equally to this project. Each person has different promos. In the next coming weeks […]

Weekly Summary 7 This week was another audio week, which did not make me happy whatsoever. I would say that the audio assignments are by far my least favorite. However, there was design assignment thrown in there this week so that spiced things up a little. We started off the week by working on the Radio […]

I took back spam this week. http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/taking-back-spam/ My work email is being bombarded by promotions and whatnot we’re doing. They’re things of which I don’t have to be aware. Here’s an example: I used audacity to record myself reading one of the emails I constantly receive. I added on some elevator music to liven up the […]

I completed the assignment ‘hobo speech.’ http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/hobo-speech/ Back in the 1800’s my character ran into a hobo who was intoxicated. This is an excerpt from that hobo’s ramblings. I used audacity to record the monologue. It was more difficult than anticipated as thinking of random gibberish a crazy person would say is hard. So I […]

I completed the ‘have a phone conversation with yourself’ assignment. I chose this assignment so my character could be shown in my work this week. The premise is that he goes into a bar and orders a drink. I wrote a short little interaction between the bartender and my character. Using audacity I recorded and […]

  I made a bumper sticker for the Radio show, “Rodeo Radio” I put a picture of a bull in the middle to display that that’s what were all about, bull riding! I thought I did a decent job of making it look western, but it wasn’t a difficult task. I completed it on Microsoft […]

Our group had gotten off to the rodeo real quickly. We named our group “Rodeo Radio”. The topic is us commentating on a Rodeo like an announcer would commentate on any other sports event. This week, besides getting the group together, we started off by coming together and creating an outline about how we wanted […]

The only reason I did this assignment was because I still needed half a star for my western created character to meet the

When I first saw this assignment description, I was excited because I thought I could get creative with my very own theme song.

This week was the start of our DS106 radio! It was stressful at first to get into groups for the radio show, but I love my group. Everyone is working really hard which makes me happy and I think we have some great ideas for our upcoming radio show. You can see my post from […]
