So glad the week is over! I’m battening down the hatches for the coming hurricane. Not looking forward to that. Anyways, on we go!
Daily Creates
Here was my little narrative for daily creates. It wasn’t really good. Sorry about that.
Web Assignments:
Firstly, this was my storytelling within the web assignment.
Secondly, this was 4 stars of the web assignment. Make sure you read the reviews on the amazon site!
Finally, we have a Google translate fail!
Radio Show Reviews:
I was a member of SpiritXpress (representin!) and we were assigned to listen to the “A Road to Somewhere” show from Team Awesome.
The show started out with an amazing poetic segment that I absolutely loved. Their use of sound throughout the whole show was very well done. I also appreciated the segment where they are actually imitating being on the road and all the sound we associate with road trips (and what sounds like Counting Crows), although there were some very weird sounds involved that I have no clue about. It did do a great job of telling a story, though.
Total Show Score: 5/5. They really deserve it. Team Awesome lives up to their name.
Now for my review of SpiritXpress radio show:
We didn’t really effectively use the sound effects as well as the other show I listened to did. As a guy, it was kind of hard for me to relate to a few of the segments (fall fashion? Yeah, not very good at that. I throw on a hoodie and, bam, out the door.) I really loved Lyndsey’s segment. It was certainly my favorite. Mine was pretty weak. I could’ve incorporated some music. I did enjoy all of the bumpers as well. In summary, I say it was a decent show, but could’ve used some more interesting effects and music.
4/5 Final score (probably inflated by my own personal leanings.)
Summary:
I mailed it in this week. Really a poor showing on my part. That’s why I didn’t tweet anything out (something that happens when I feel I’m not at my best). But I’m really planning on putting in some good effort next week. Hopefully the topic is good.
