Brief Overview: This assignment is supposed to be our base line for our Audio Story for an end of year project. I wasn't sure what I wanted my topic to be, but I decided to interview one of my friends because she always has an interesting story to tell. Sammi Smith is a freshman who goes to High Point University and she has encountered crazy events. When she was in high school, Sammi had the opportunity to go to a music festival in California which is Coachella. While she was there she and her friend got to experience this music festival like no other regular attendee there.


The Process: We did all of our editing on Adobe Audition. In class we learned how to cut and edit our clips of audio to place what we want in the final product and to cut out what we don't want. I did most of my editing on the Multitrack and placed my main markers on the Wavelength track so that it could transfer over to Multitrack. 



Overall: The editing of this small audio clip was harder than I thought it was going to be. We had to record a five minute clip and trim it down to one minute. I had to decide which clips were the most important and which ones I could delete. The hardest part was deciding where and when to trim every clip.

Introduction: Hello everyone! It is almost time for a short break, but before we leave I have a short video for you all. The story is the same as my audio story but  I have added some animation effects to go with it. I hope you guys enjoy it! Audio Premier: This wasn't hard to make, but it did take longer than I thought it would. Towards the end it gets a little more simple. I added graphics that spin and rotate as well. I have used the different lessons that we used in class to add it to my video. The only element that I was not able to upload was the b-roll. I was thinking that when I do upload it, it would be from a concert that I have personally been to. This would add a great touch to it. I hope you all enjoy!

  Simone Biles. That's all. Growing up I was a pretty energetic kid and my parents didn't know what to do with all of my energy. They placed me in a recreational gymnastics class and from that point on I never stopped loving the sport. I was a competitive gymnast my whole life starting at the age of six and going all the way up to my senior year of high school. I have won multiple state and regional titles during my career, but nothing compares to Simone Biles. At first I didn't know who she was, we just ended the 2012 Olympics and the U.S national team took home the gold. Now we were back to watching smaller elite competitions. In 2013 Biles won her first gold medal and it took off from there. After her win, my gymnastics gym back home was able to host her and have her speak to us. This was a life changing experience. Not only was she so humble, but she was able to give us advice about the sport in general and how to balance school and gymnastics while maintaining your gra...

What is Music to You?

Brief Overview:  My audio story is mainly about what music is to others and how they experience it whether that be through a music festival or just listening to it while doing homework. I interviewed many people about what music is to them and I also interviewed an expert who gives us her opinion on multiple different topics about music. Down below I have linked my full audio story and you are able to listen to it. The Process:  The process to making this audio story took a while because I interviewed four people to get all of the information that I needed in order to complete the story. We had to find background music that goes along with our story, so I picked an upbeat sound in order to keep my audience engaged throughout the whole story. My sound effect that I made is a guitar in the background when my expert (Julia Fiedler) was informing us what music means to her. The sound effect is me strumming the guitar and I lowered the volume so that my audienc...
