“Night Cheese” Mash-Up

For those of you that haven’t watched 30 Rock, there is a particular clip that I always found to be really funny….and then I threw it in with Bob Seger. This was the easiest audio assignment I’ve done yet, as I had to reuse mostly the same 5 seconds and put it in the correct order over and over again. It was pretty time consuming to go in and find every instance I wanted to replace, but eventually I did it! So here is my Bob Seger/ Tina Fey Music Mash-Up.

I hope you guys like it!

EDIT: OK, so I’m not so proud of this, but I think it taught me a little more of creative commons. I had to put a minute of silence upfront so SoundCloud would stop deleting the song :(   I also had to name the file “Cheese”.

Mashing a DS106 Radio Bumper

Thanks to my fellow DS106 students who made sure they clicked on the “Allow Downloads” button in SoundCloud, I was able to mash this DS106 Radio bumper.  It’s short and sweet, just like this post. AudioAssignments36

Big kudos to my unsuspecting contributors….

Twilight Zone Dialogue Mash-Up

This is my dialogue mash-up of “Time Enough at Last” and a clip from “The Venture Brothers”.

Using MPEG Streamline and Audacity, I was able to cut bits and pieces of the dialogues apart and paste them together in ways that might be humorous.

I’m still finding it difficult to chop bits up using Audacity, but a friend of mine showed me how to utilize a couple of options, most importantly “Find Zero Crossings”. From what I understand, it helps you to cut out exactly at the end of your dialogue, rather than carrying on with insignificant “blips”. So, I tried to use that to the best of my ability, and while it wasn’t the easiest thing I’ve done, it wasn’t all that bad. I feel like I’m learning to DJ or something.

Your Favorite Teams Mashup Tutorial

Here is a tutorial for the Your Favorite Teams Mashup assignment .

1) Select your two favorite sports teams

2) Find an image of the two teams logo’s and download them to your computer.

3) Go to Pixlr.com/editor.

4) Select “open image from your computer” and open the two images you just downloaded.

5) Choose which image is going to be the base image and which is going to be the second layer image. For me I chose to use this image as the base: New_York_Yankees_logo_wallpaper

And this image as the layer:

Jets

5) Navigate to the base image, and edit the area where your layer image will be used. Here is a screenshot of my workspace.

6) Navigate to the layered image. Use the pixlr tools to edit the image to mesh well with the base image. In my example, I cropped the image to be smaller and removed the upper wing using the eraser.

Jets

7) Once you are satisfied, save the new edited image.

8) Navigate back to the base image. Go to ‘Layer’ –> ‘open image as layer’ to open the layer image on top of the base image.

9) move the layered image into the proper spot, and you are finished!

Super Mash Bros

Take a couple different clips from some related videos.  Change them around to make a new plot, and then remove the audio.  Overdub the characters to add some audio and change the story even further.  Don’t forget to play with the music too!

Mash Up Assignments | 3 Stars | Doctorow’ed

The Assignment:

Your challenge is to make something new out of the photos, or better yet, remix of someone else’s remix.

Okay, I know we did one of these, but I had such a great time with the photos I decided to do another one.  ( I am not submitting this piece, it is just for this assignment)

The Assignment:

Okay so we all watch actors change roles and character. It’s crazy to see what they were like in the beginning of their career compared to now. Find a actor or actress and use film clips to show a metamorphosis.
