Blog #3


youtube link: https://youtu.be/3ueq3_nbKXY

My still image video is about one of my residents, Haley Steinhafel, and one of her funniest childhood memories. She talks about how her family traveled to a lake in Wisconsin when she was seven, and why she'll never forget that trip.
I edited the audio in Adobe Audition. I didn't have much trouble editing the content. It was fun going online and finding different sound effects and noises to import into my audio clip. I didn't shorten the original audio much because Haley did a great job of retelling the story. I only removed a few silent parts and the very end of the video. I used the razor tool to separate the beginning of the story from the rest, so I could place music. I also played around with the individual sound effects so you could still hear Haley talking.
Once I brought the audio into Adobe Premiere, I found multiple images to place throughout the story. I chose a handful, but found myself searching for more the more and more I listened to the story. I played around with different graphics, re-cropped my photos to fill the frame, and imported various photos. Overall, I feel more comfortable with both Audition and Premiere after completing this project!

Accessible Video Project

Overall, I think this project was a really great way to bring attention to the fact that not everyone is able to watch or hear videos, TV shows, movies, etc. When producing projects, it is so important to include enough visual and audio details in order to provide for various kinds of people who are watching. Audio Only: With my audio only video, I strived to include as many sound effects as I could. When completing this project, I shut my eyes or avoiding looking at the screen in order to understand what it would be like to be visually impaired. With that, I tried to make my audio as detailed as possible, so that someone who is visually impaired doesn't feel like their missing out on the story. Visual Only: With my visual only, I added various personal photos, clip art photos, and some text. Again, I tried putting myself in a hearing impaired person's shoes and strived to incorporate as much visual detail as I could so that person wouldn't feel like they were mi...

Original 5 Minute Story: https://soundcloud.com/caroline-hamrick-830009156/blog-1-original Edited 1 Minute Story: https://soundcloud.com/caroline-hamrick-830009156/blog-1-edited This blog was a great opportunity to learn more about Adobe Audition. I learned new things through trial and error. For example, highlighting the part I wanted to delete was made much easier once I realized I could drag it longer or shorter if I held my tool at the top of the section. Before I realized that I had been listening to the same part over and over again, trying to find the specific second I wanted to delete. I used many of the tools that we talked about in class like the razor tool, the move tool, and the time selection tool. These all allowed me to edit my clip into a minute long story. When I added the introduction and closing clip, I had some trouble getting to the end of the page, but was able to find it by dragging the selected clip all the way to the end. Uploading the file was not ...

Blog #3 (GSP)

Since I did yearbook for three years in high school, creating my Photostory draft felt as if I was creating a spread for yearbook. I started in Photoshop and chose two photos where the lighting was off or their were distracting elements in the photo. In the airplane photo, there was originally a Starbucks cup that I edited out by using the stamp tool. For the largest photo of the chair in Slane Student Center, I also edited a few lighting distractions by using the stamp tool and the paint tool. In InDesign, I used the fit content buttons a few times when moving around my photos, for it can be easy to make a mistake with that. I also utilized the proportions InDesign gives when you move things around. It makes your layout more organized and easier to complete. I also played around with the type tool and different fonts that InDesign has to figure out what would look best with my PhotoStory.
