Lukas Jones’s Trip to the Past
Here is my Sound Effects Story that is 3 1/2 points. It was really fun to make but it was definitely harder than the radio bumper. I had to search for sounds on freesound.org and it was hard to find the exact sounds I wanted. I got all my sounds and began importing them into... -
Audio Reflection
This week our focus is audio in storytelling and more specifically the use of audio in noir. Audio is another form of communication that used to convey an idea or a thought. What I think makes audio storytelling interesting that it enhances the story. Last week we focused on the visual aspect of story telling […] -
Stress in Sounds
One of the audio assignments I chose to do this week was emotion through sound for three stars. I chose to do stress because it completely reflects how I’ve felt the past couple days.

I feel so small…..
This is a daily create celebrating International Dot Day. I chose this picture because to the human eye, we see thousands of bright dots (stars..) in the sky. When they are all together, they make up the universe aka THE BIG DOT….. -
Radio Bumper
My idea for this radio bumper came from combining several sounds and elements. I noticed while listening to ds106radio that most of the bumpers caught my attention by using loud sounds in the beginning. So for this reason I started … Continue reading → -

Audio Storytelling – Noir Style
This week in Noir 106, we are focusing on the audible aspects of digital storytelling. These include dialogue, sound effects, and nondiegetic music. To learn about these, I listened to ds106 Radio and shots from “Touch of Evil” and also read “The Ambience of Film Noir: Soundscapes, Design, and Mood” by Helen Hanson. DS106 Radio I tuned […] -

4 Down, 12 to go
This week was filled with audio assignments. I thought that the pictures took me out of my comfort zone, this audio stuff was harder then I ever thought. I spent hours just playing with Audacity trying to figure it out, and I’m still not very good at it. I sent out a desperate tweet on … Continue reading 4 Down, 12 to go → -
Don’t Text and Drive
For my sound effects story I did a PSA for texting and driving, I think it is pretty self explanatory! -
Brainstorming Radio Ideas
I have a hard time brainstorming by myself, I like to bounce ideas off other people. With that being said, here are a few things I have thought of: We could do a Noir version of Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Raven” or the “Tell Tale Heart” both of these seem very Noir to me. -
Dailies!
This week I chose to do the “I’m Sorry” picture for my daily create. I chose a picture of a sleeping puppy because of my obvious “I love dogs” reason and I also added an “I’m Sorry” for something that a typical puppy would do, all my dogs owners know what I’m talking about with this … Continue reading Dailies! -

This was interesting because it was fun to try to find a quote that I could use. The one I used was from “Cesar A. Cruz” -
Sound in Noir
Sound is the ribbon that ties everything together whether it be movies, radio shows, or podcasts. Sound enhances everything and creates a more dimensional and dramatic effect for the media. A many thing I have noticed in many of the audio items of noir that I have listened to and seen have used a switch … Continue reading Sound in Noir -
Radio Show Idea
Many noir radio shows were based from movies, but what about going in a different direction and basing it on a book? I’ve really been scratching my head all week trying to figure out an idea for a radio show. This morning I was talking to one of my friends who’s a Spanish/English double major […] -
Touch of Evil – Audio Reflection
Touch of Evil – Audio Comparison To begin this segment of my reflections, I will begin discussing two different versions of the Touch of Evil openings, one video with enhanced audio and another video with the original film audio. I have to say that I was impressed with how much the audio changes made a … Continue reading Touch of Evil – Audio Reflection → -

Think about Audio Storytelling
Audio is very important in storytelling. In the mid 1900s people used to listen to the radio to follow up with their favorite TV shows or other programs. To deliver the image to the listener, audio is used with sounds effects. In noir films audio is important; for example the Touch of Evil opening shot … Continue reading Think about Audio Storytelling → -

Why Did You Wake Me Up?
Here is my audio storytelling assignment with just sounds. It was supposed to be someone woken up from snoring with large noises, then a door slamming because they went to go see what it was, then they went walking and ended up finding a flood, hence the water flowing. http://assignments.ds106.us/assignments/sound-effects-story/ (3 1/2 stars) -
