Project Summary: ECHO Protocol is a futuristic, interactive sci-fi story created using canva where you play as Kai, a memory technician who uncovers a rogue signal in a world controlled by the ECHO AI. The story explores themes of control, freedom, and identity through branching choices and glitchy cyberpunk visuals. It combines storytelling and digital media.
Weekly Reflection: This week, I focused fully on finalizing the project testing visuals, refining choices, and bringing the story together. The process was creative and experimental, and I’m proud of how it turned out. Echo Protocol reflects what I’ve learned all semester about blending narrative with multimedia.
The links I have used so far, despite so much time being poured into to is not getting longer just more detailed.
Just some of the things I have been doing, messing with audio and visuals trying to create something from the ground up with the tools I have. I make the voices with an online software and then take them to audacity to tweak then in an attempt to add more emotions behind them through pitch and volume control. I try to fill in the gaps with sounds and visuals to express things momentary loss of sanity and excitement. I am trying to do everything at once for the sake of timing since I am doing my best not to be a perfectionist and over stress about it. I simply need to get my message across first and foremost.
But uh I have been going from free sound. audacity and Canva for the last week now trying to develop my work further.
Since it’s already Thursday and I have just so much other work to do I did not get the chance to post earlier in the week.
This a trailer for the upcoming final project. I used canvas to edit the video and put the glitching effects. I decided to use a bright red title to catch the attention of the view and the glitching effects to go alone along with the theme of a malfunction AI or issiues with technology. I also found helicoptor sound to match the cyberpunk themed helicopters I used in the trailer
