Radio Show and Week 10 Summary

This week was spent recording and editing the show, so no new content was made for it. We did run into the technical difficulty of the show not being long enough, we tried to extend the script, but it’s still on the shorter side. However, I’m proud of what we made and the way we communicated as a team.

Aside from recording my part, I was in charge of double checking the editing of everyone’s individual parts together and the sound effect/music timing, and I, myself, had to put the bumpers and ads into the final product.

Week 10 Summary:

Week 10 was a good week for me personally I feel back on track. Me and my group were able to complete the project on time, I’m happy with the overall outcome of our project originally I wasn’t sure how my sound effects and editing would come out and it felt forced, but once I found the flow and timing of the podcast the uncertainty left me and I was able to produce a enjoyable product for the listener. Most of the work done this week is explained in my Noir Games podcast post if you’d like more insight into the process of creating for our podcast.

Daily creates:

During this week we were responsible for 2 daily creates which I was able to get done. The first daily creation I completed asked us to tell what we love I decided to show off some green beans I harvested from last year’s harvest that I absolutely loved. Gardening is an important part of my life and as I get older the more I grow to appreciate the skill. For the second daily creation we were asked what our personal opinion was on the creative possibility of limits, boarders and all kinds of dividers this immediately made me think of the speed limit as this is the most common border I have issue with. Boarders like the speed limit are important in regulating a society, even though anyone could speed its borders like this that may help deter certain parties from speeding and help limit the number of fatal crashes, although I may not like driving the speed limit and I may be safe going a little bit over it is still smarter to follow the rules set in place by society for everybody’s sake.

Weekly Summary #10: Radio Show Week!

M. Marshall 3.28

It’s crazy that we are in week 10. I don’t feel so much like I’m fumbling around on this website now. So that’s a definite improvement. Most of the work this week for me was putting together the audio and recording my own for the radio show, so here it is:

And now my daily creates!

Day 1:

Can you find all 18 faces?

Day 2:

It’s true! I have 4 younger siblings, but she’s the baby 🙂 My favorite time of year is the 6 day period where she and I are 10 years apart (10 and 20 was pretty cool but what I’m really excited for is 20 and 30).

That is all for this week!

A fun and exciting week

I really enjoyed this week. It ended up being one of my favorites so far, which is surprising because I was initially nervous going into this week. Sometimes I get nervous for group projects because I don’t know what to expect, but it ended up being a great week.

This week I participated in my first podcast/radio show. I had a lot of fun recording with “The Fearless Femmes”. We had a couple bumps when trying to complete our show, but we still came out with a great finished project. In my weekly summary I talk all about our week in completing our radio show you can read below:

Radio Show Update

Our group worked together very well. For our show we decided to have a caller concept where listeners can call in and tell the fearless femmes about any current struggles they’re going through and get direct advice from us. We answered the questions from the calls from the standpoint of our characters, and called in as ourselves.

We took last week to brainstorm and create bumpers/intermissions/and commercials for our show. We also created promo posters and videos. This took a lot of the pressure off for this week so we only had to focus on recording and editing the show.

We came up with scripts for our show to have something to go off of. I think this was a good idea for us so we would have ideas to bounce off of to keep the conversation flowing. We ultimately met in the DKC and finished our recording Thursday afternoon and it was edited by the end of the night.

I’m so proud of the finished outcome for our show. For many of my group members including myself this was our first radio show recording. I think after having practice rounds we really warmed up to each other and had a steady flow which resulted in a great radio show outcome. Click below to listen to our show.

Fearless Femmes Radio Show

Since it was a pretty busy week with the radio show, I was glad that there were only 2 daily creates to complete this week. I completed my creates Tuesday and Thursday this week. Check them out below:

Daily Creates

I’m so excited to listen to everyones radio shows. I really had a great time recording with the Fearless Femmes this week. I learned so much about recording and editing audio this week that I plan to continue to improve in the future.

Hope you enjoy!

Sincerely, Kristen

My Creative Journey: Week 10

Summary

Short summary because most of my experience is already described in the other post about my audio show project. This week was a little crazy because working on a group project completely over the internet can make communicating very complicated and leads to a lot of misunderstandings, but I think it worked out in the end. I don’t fully love how the game show came out, but my expectations for the completed product might have been a little too high for this idea. To read about the entire process and see the complete audio show you can go on my post called Noir Games. Also I had to make 2 Daily Creates this week which can be found on my post called Inside My Creative Mind.

Week Summary 10

Radio Show Week 2 – Flower Bed

Daily Creates – Flower Bed

The week is over, yet I cannot rest sigh oh well might as well work hard then I guess bleh bleh. Been a busy week and there were lots to get done. I really don’t know I am running on empty at the moment and don’t want to think anymore. I did stuff yes, my memory isn’t good, but I was stressed for a week and now I just too tried to care or bother retaining those stressful memories. So here we are did the radio project and honestly just 👀more blehs. Please reference my posts for work complete, I made sure to pull together the group and offer avenues for communication helping with delegating and references items provided to give information when needed, keeping track of tasks and items that had to be completed as well as doing my best to keep up with set deadlines while offering once again ways to keep everyone in the loop. Learned that trying to work an audacity file together may break it bummer but making sure to make the best of tools available like google drive. Offered content that could be used to further the project even if it wasn’t utilized and made sure to offer not only my opinion but my professional outlook. Asked questions to create a world and kept track of whatever was needed. Held my tongue when necessary and spoke when I needed to. Understood communication styles and made sure to reflect that preference when I had to. That’s just people 💩. As for technical work I aided in writing the script offering character suggestions and sound suggestions found tools that everyone could utilize to lessen the burden and took on an extra load when needed.

I keep receipts so if you need proof of things feel free to ask. I played my part and have learned to stop there why push yourself to tears when other lean back that’s just general reflection shit ps…

(issue from another group project gave serios trust issues) No individual grades in a group project, well some teachers do that those make me feel a tad better when I see people who do the least and think they can get off Scott free.

Me and Audacity are still enemies despite spending so much time together. Hint for next time, if finish arranging something and have to add more JUST RESTART IT DUDE DON’T TRY TO GO LINE BY LINE TRYING TO MOVE AND ADJUST EVERYTHING AGGHHH if my hair wasn’t so thick it would be falling out after doing that. PLUS, IT’S AUDIO AND MY HARD OF HEARING SELF HAD TO REPEAT THINGS LIKE 5 TIMES TO EVEN UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS BEING SAID WAHHH I NEED CAPTIONS TO BREATHHH. Anyway, there’s what I did this week. How was your week. Good I hope

Week 10 Fearless Femmes Summary

I completed 2 Daily Creates this week! Both were personal, and about my passions and what I love. Reading books in a cozy area is my safe haven. My other DC was about having #NoLimits; Reaching new heights and pushing boundaries! I believe that breaking barriers and making new achievements is my fuel to keep going.

Here is the Fearless Femmes Radio Show Progress REPORT! I absolutely loved working with this group of ladies. They are all just fabulous! Our Fearless Femmes radio show went amazing. I have never completed an assignment like this before so it was all fairly new to me and overall such a great experience. This report gives a layout of how we prepared for the radio show this week leading up to the recording day, also how we overcame challenges together, I talk about Martina’s fantastic editing skills, and lastly, how proud we were to turn in our work. I believe that all of us were very happy with the outcome and enjoyed listening to all the final creation. I’m excited to get feedback on this and hopefully get our other classmates to listen to it.

I wanted to post a link with the podcast, for those who wanted to listen to other classmates now. But I didn’t see any instructions for that so I’ll wait just in case Week 11 is when we are supposed to share it! 🙂

I hope I get the chance to check out the other groups radio shows as well!

Week 10 and Radio Show Progress

This was a great and productive week. I participated in two Daily Creates and focused on the radio show for the rest of the week. I met with my group, and we seamlessly recorded our show at the DKC podcast studio. Since Finn is male and I have a fairly high voice, we decided to use an AI voice, which worked out well. We used SoundCloud to edit the show, which was perfect for this assignment because it allowed us to add music and audio clips. I had fun working with my group, and I’m glad we found time to record this week. It was also nice meeting some classmates in person!

Here are the Daily Creates I participated in this week.

Here is the Radio show:

Weekly Summary- 3/28

It has been filmed! This week me and my group made and edited our final script, focused on a central theme of dating in a more digitalized age with dating apps and algorithms in control. We then used the Podcast Studio in the Digital Knowledge Center to film our base radio show, recording 4 scenes to split up later in the editing process. The recording was pretty straightforward, but editing was a bit more challenging. We used soundtrap, which is a program I have never used before, but enjoyed testing and exploring. Trying to find the right times to layer sounds in the background and not disrupt the flow of the conversation. Finding all of the right timings and cutting clips when needed and easing into bumpers and commercials made for a time-consuming editing process, but I’m glad the experience is under my belt now. The finished product can be found here on SoundCloud!

You know the drill. Here are my 2 daily creates for the week:
