    This week went pretty well for me. I thoroughly enjoyed learning new stuff about audio and sound. I started off this week watching the daily video and download and experimented with Audacity, a site I have never used before. I found Audacity very help when it came to this weeks’ assignments. Then I began my […]

    One of our assignments this week was to create a radio bumper for DS106 Radio.  After tweeting along with the audio films the other nights, I was playing with a few ideas about how to develop this bumper.  Long story short, after listening to all the excellent posts from other students, I tried to think a...

    February 8, 2015
    In this project I got to play around more with echo and pitch effects. It was to make a new ringtone, and here’s what I came up with. I usually like a ringtone that sounds more like an actual phone so I started off with this.  And then I changed the pitch and added an […]

    February 8, 2015
    I got started early this week once again because I knew I would have trouble with the audio editing process since this was my first experience editing and creating audio. I chose to tackle the daily creates first this week just to get them out of the way so I would have more time to … Read More

    Audio Reflection

    February 8, 2015
    So with the Audio Storytelling assignment, I watched Touch of Evil and Touch of Evil 1958. To me, the first video I felt more interested in what was going to happen just because of the background music. There were lots of sounds that kept you locked on to the video; lots of laughter, cars moving, […]

    February 8, 2015
    I didn’t like this week very much because I don’t like audio and talking very much because I’m shy. I did like the two videos we watched though and the one reading, it was really interesting and helped me understand the idea and concept of audio a little more. The reflection of audio really killed … Continue reading Hey Week 4!!! →

    Week 4: This week was definitely the hardest one yet. I have never really done much with audio and I struggled a little bit. Also, I have never payed much attention to sound. I’m a “people person”, I look at people, how they move, what they’re wearing. I’ve never really paid attention to the the … Continue reading Weekly Summary

    This week, we were assigned to brainstorm ideas for group radio shows happening in the future. Well I hate to say it, but my brain is pretty much drained this week. I have been super sick and I am just now starting to be able to function a bit. 1) I think that it would […]

    February 8, 2015
    I’ve been thinking a lot this week about ideas for a potential radio show. Listening to the ds106radio was really helpful in understanding the idea of a radio show that could incorporate the elements of noir. At this point in the course, we have focused on both storytelling and audio features of noir (amongst other things), […]

    This is the required sound effects story assignment, worth 3 1/2 points. I’ve never done anything like this before, and I don’t think I realized just how far one can push a story with sound effects alone. The hardest part was determining a topic. I struggled for a while and didn’t know where to begin. … Continue reading Someone Just Left →

    February 8, 2015
    That is indeed the question.  I have one idea that has just stuck in my head after reading Eureka! by Leanna.  My idea might be a bit too complicated for a radio show, but that’s the point, it’s just an idea. What if there was a radio show within the radio show?  Like we, as listeners … Read More

    Think about Audio Storytelling

    by

    February 8, 2015
    Using audio sounds in storytelling is extremely important. For example during the Touch of Evil noir particular attention was paid to the background noise throughout the entire scene. The viewer understood that a bomb had been place in the back of the vehicle due to the fact that you heard constant ticking throughout the opening […]

    The “dramatic reading remix” assignment (3.5 pts) was interesting because I had to think hard about the lyrics to some of my favorite songs. I always thought dramatic readings of song lyrics was cheesy, but adding instrumental music underneath the reading made it sound natural and powerful. I decided to...

    Here is the radio bumper that I made for ds106 radio! For the background song I chose “Retrograde” by James Blake because it has kind of a haunting, eerie feel to it that I feel like fits well with noir. Then of course I have voice-over done by myself. Let me know what you guys… Read More
