So with this project, I worked diligently to instill a feeling of relief into anyone who listens to it. In my audio, I tell a story with minimal dialogue. I used the sounds to help decide the place, the weather, and the overall vibe of the story. I used my project from another class as the bases, then I went from there, adding and taking away different parts and reworking the overall flow of the audio by taking multiple steps.

The story I was trying to convey was a story of someone who just got home from a long day of work in the rain and walks through the rain to their place of residence to enter and be greeted by their roommate. After that, they proceed to walk into their bedroom, turn on some tunes and draw. There are many things that people do to relax every day and I just wanted to convey another way to relax. I hope this audio conveys relief and relaxation after a long day.

For this assignment I decided to go for a Radio advertisement one because it sounds like it would be fun and two because I have a little bit of skill when it comes to recording sounds for audio. The audio is a gorilla tape advertisement where the gorilla tape spokesperson brings in a satisfied customer. While I was working on this project I learned that getting audio to be perfect is really hard and I also learned that I need to work more on how to use audacity. I learned that if you want to get the best product for audio you need to sit down with the voice actors / helpers and read and try to memorize the scripts so you won’t have to worry about reading from a page.

I tried to implement the advertising technique of repetition by the spokesperson and the customer say how durable and strong the tape actually is. I also used the technique of ” be more human ” by bringing in an actual customer and let them describe their experience with gorilla tape in everyday situations.
