Sound Effects Story

For the “Sound Effects Story” I used the software that we were provided within the weekly assignments tab for week five. I have never thought about creating a story only using audio before, and this was a great way for me to do that and try something that I have never done before.

The first thing I did was downloaded the audios onto my laptop, and then I exported them onto Audacity. The audio is not as seamless as I was hoping it was going to be because I was not sure how to layer audios, so instead, I put them next to each other. My story is a sad story about a person who is taking a walk in a forest and then suddenly a plane crashes in the forest. There is no particular ending to the story and it is up to the imagination to come up with what happens next.

Sound Effects Story

Tell a story using nothing but sound effects. There can be no verbal communication, only sound effects. Use at least five different sounds that you find online. The story can be no longer than 90 seconds. Another example (by a UMW student): http://ds106.us/wp-content/audio/audio_story.mp3
