As my birthday is in February, I was tasked with creating Foley sounds for the actions between 00:30 and 01:00 in Charlie Chaplin’s The Lion’s Cage.  Some of the sounds were tough to create with just my body and the items I found around me,  but overall I feel like I accurately recreated all the...

In this assignment, we had to create a 30 to 45 second commercial that would play during the radio show.  I used Audacity to create the commercial.

For this assignment, we were suppose to make a radio bumper for our own radio show. The process to creating my bumper was very simple now that I know my way around the Audacity program and know what I am doing. The challenge in creating this bumper was deciding on what I wanted it to […]

For my radio commercial I chose to market our radio station through how its different from standard mainstream radio. I tired to grab the audience’s attention by saying our station is not trying to influence their opinion, but to simply get the information out there. I believe that’s the way …

Thanks for tuning into DSMW! I created the bumper for my groups radio show knowing I wanted something with a good beat to keep listeners interested.

After the breaking news intro finished, I went ahead and did my short promotion for our radio show. Then saved the file in Garage band, and drug the file […]

Chaplin-Foley This audio assignment was by far the hardest for me. I am not a person who is very creative when it comes to making noises or sounds with different objects and even with my own body. I listened to the section of Charlie Chaplin’s – Lion Cage, 2:01-2:30, which I was supposed to replicate […]

  I apologize for how poor the audio is, I tried to fix it but I don’t know what the problem is so I hope you guys can understand the song well enough to guess what it is! Here are the three hints: Today is the artist’s 42nd birthday (October 17th, 1972). It was featured […]

For the DS106 radio show, each group member was tasked with creating their own radio bumper.  For my submission, I wanted to try my best to capture the essence of what I intended the show to be: a retelling of important historical events from one’s own perspective.  The first two clips feature my voice saying “DS106 Radio” followed...

For the audio assignment Autotune Something, we were tasked with autotuning something that was not normally autotuned.  I decided that I would autotune a cat’s meow! The inspiration for this idea came from an old Checker’s commercial that a lot of people probably remember which featured a character known as Rap Cat.  I always found this commercial hilarious as a...
