Text of the page (random words):
og editing my video and writing my content my first endeavor was to create my header as i figured that would be fun and also set the mood and aesthetic for my blog as we ve done in class before i used pixlr to create a header containing some of my press clips fyi i did my blog on my work in pr theme wise i chose a clean professional looking blog layout that i thought would be stylish enough to engage visitors while also minimal enough to look attractive to potential employers and other pr practitioners however having only the free version of the theme proved to be a limitation challenge as i would have loved to have customized my layout even further maybe i ll do this in the future though image via https www examtime com blog top 10 reasons to start blogging today the video as fun as it was to make was also a challenge in and of itself as i wanted to make sure it upped the game more than my previous video for this class gathering and organizing all the images and clips i wanted to use as well as selecting effects that made sense and looked seamless in the video was another challenge but again one that was entertaining to execute unlike my screencast video i did the voiceover for the midterm video after editing the video together selecting my music bed was also a lot of fun though i struggled a bit with the audio levels finally i found actually writing and organizing my blog content to be fairly simple intuitive i ve blogged before and fun as i quite enjoy blogging i d never actually blogged before about my work in pr so it was kind of refreshing to tackle that as being such a personal topic top 5 my classmates midterm blogs everyone in my class did such a great job with their blogs in no particular order here are my favorite midterm blogs from my peers the daily orbit i think this blog is particular great because it s such an interesting topic i can also see that the person behind this blog is incredibly passionate about the topic which makes me more invested as a reader when a writer cares about what they re writing about you can tell and it makes for a better blogging experience all around also i really love the consistency of the posts on this site the blogger updates and provides content in a consistent stream which is very important for a blog in my opinion also you can clearly see from the design alone what the blog is about naturally curlie i think this blog is so positive and empowering from a feminist standpoint i really appreciate the blog s topic which is to celebrate natural hair and hair diversity this blog is uplifting in its mission to squash homogenous cultural beauty standards and i love how passionate and dedicated the writer is to her topic i also think the blogger did a great job with her video creating a professional looking personalized video that was both informative and fun to watch i also think the about page does a great job highlighting and clarifying the mission of the blog cosmic drag race anything pertaining to drag queens is okay with me this blog is a lot of fun with a bright colorful design theme that very much so reflects its topic matter aesthetically i think the posts are fun but also really quite informative which is very important for successful blogging i love how thorough the post discussing what drag is and i actually learned about drag kings which was cool finally i think the video content was executed very well particularly in regards to transitions title cards captions and overall audio editing college chic this blog is beautifully designed it s very stylish clean pleasant to look at and reminds me a bit of tumblr which aesthetically speaking is a good thing you know right away when you access this blog that it s a personal style blog and the blogger does an exceptional job in terms of personalizing her content with personal style and outfit photos the content here is not text heavy but relies on quick information and great photos which is another great way to blog finally the video posted is incredibly professional looking with really great editing how to drive like a moron this blog is pretty much hilarious the person behind it has a great sense of humor which translates very well to their content as someone who is personally highly frustrated by idiot drivers i can relate to a lot of this content even if the topic isn t that heavy or personal the best part of this blog in my opinion however is the about page which is really really great in terms of giving me a real sense of who this blogger is their ideology and how important this topic truly is to them this quote from their page stood out to me but the one thing that stays the most consistent about bad driving a belief that your own decisions are more important than anyone else s i believe this is what is at the root of most bad driving practices this is so true and really resonated with me and that connection with a reader is what makes a blog successful metablogging projects assignments assignments blogging designing blogs midterm public relations video editing wordpress video editing screencasting e portfolios march 7 2015 march 7 2015 emr169 8 comments i ve worked with video production minimally in the past so i wasn t too intimidated by this project i decided to use windows live movie maker as i use a pc and while i do think that imovie tends to have more professional grade features in my opinion i knew wlmm would be more intuitive and convenient for me as a pc and windows user professional e portfolios compare and contrast from erica russell on vimeo overall i found screencasting itself to be pretty easy and actually quite fun after a little trial and error my favorite challenge from this assignment was using screencast o matic in an engaging and visually appealing way while looking at the two portfolios i examined being able to simply showcase two portfolio sites while keeping it interesting proved to be very satisfying admittedly my least favorite challenge from the assignment was trying to find a good pace of speech for my voice over as i found myself doing multiple takes in order to get my narration to a place that i liked i think video editing and screencasting skills can definitely come in handy in order to showcase visual media skills which i think are becoming more and more valued in the workplace anyone working with media or communication in particular can certainly utilize these skills and software since they exemplify certain creative and digital competencies that are valued in these fields and industries creatively i think video media content such as tutorials commentaries and reviews can definitely benefit from screencasting software and this project has piqued my interest to maybe try it out myself video e portfolios screecast o matic screencasting video vimeo audio editing garageband music reviews and podcasts february 26 2015 emr169 6 comments soko photo by robin black courtesy of bb gun pr back in 2011 during a brief semester at marymount manhattan i took a great course on digital media where we learned basic coding video filming and editing and audio recording and editing that was over four years ago now and as i haven t had much use for at least the audio editing part i realized as we began this assignment that i had forgotten quite a bit luckily after a little trial and error i found out that much like riding a bicycle after a long time it was somewhat effortless to fall back into the habit of knowing how to splice adjust time and add effects to tracks among other things in garageband in fact my greatest struggle during this project was finding a computer with garageband since i d used it before i really didn t want to download and use audacity which i find tends to be more complicated than it needs to be as well as much more visually confusing than the streamlined friendly aesthetic of garageband s software luckily i didn t have to trek the hour back to campus to use a mac as all i had to do was go to my mom s house the first thing i had to do was select something to talk about i recently had to interview a french nu punk artist named soko for a magazine i write for and having been immersed in her album for a few weeks decided it would be a natural and interesting topic to wax poetic on for a bit as for the actual editing the step which proved to be a slight obstacle was to import my actual vocal audio track i e the one with my talking into garageband as my file was a wma i had recorded my vocals on my toshiba which has windows after a little googling i found a free audio conversion software that i downloaded and was easily able to convert my wma file to mp3 making my vocal track compatible with garageband afterwards i simply dropped in my two music tracks the intro and the bed i chose two songs from soko as she and her new album were the focus of my podcast discussion the first thing i did was work on the intro music settling on a pleasant audible base volume and about ten seconds in beginning to drag the volume down in a fade out that ends at fifteen seconds i used a distortion effect to make the music more hazy fuzzy and cerebral adjusting the drive tone and output levels i spliced out the rest of the track as it would be inaudible anyway also at ten seconds in i began to bring up the volume on my foundation or bed track creating what sounds like to me at least a fairly cohesive fade in the two tracks mixing pleasantly over one another until all you can hear is the bed music i kept my bed music volume at a medium volume so listeners could still clearly hear my voice over that track i also activated the bitcrusher audio effect to slightly alter the audio for the purpose of hopefully avoiding soundcloud s wrath as well as to tone the music down a bit soko my dreams dictate my reality record out 3 3 15 as for the vocal track with my podcast discussion i began my track a few seconds into the intial fade out of the intro music creating a seamless transition in which i begin talking as the intro music lowers and continuing as the bed music fades in i punched up my volume to make sure my voice is heard similarly i utilized the speech enhancer effect on my vocal track and lowered the noise level as well as raised the reverb to 3 helping to punch up my voice a bit while cleaning the track of some background noise i had recorded my discussion on a laptop mic so the quality was not so great at first after listening to the final product a few times and making various minor tweaks i finally saved my project and then exported the audio into a mp3 file finally i created a schoolwork only soundcloud account and uploaded my track with some artwork a description of the project and appropriate tags all in all i m quite satisfied with my podcast even if i m not too keen on listening to my own voice over and over and very happy with the way it turned out as i put a lot of thought and effort into creating it as well as coming up with my topic in the future i can hopefully use these skills in other courses as well as for my work in music journalism where i sometimes have to do audio interviews with artists audio projects assignments audio audio editing audio editing software audio effects garageband my dreams dictate my reality soko soundcloud adding editing my header february 21 2015 emr169 3 comments original unedited base image via wikimedia commons so unfortunately i was out sick for the class that we learned hands on about image editing but fortunately i ve had some experience over the last decade with various lite image editing software like jasc paint shop pro among others so i was relieved to launch pixlr and find a similar user intuitive interface that i was already comfortable navigating the first thing i did was find two complementary images on google image search that i would be happy using this was probably most challenging due to the need to find two images that i liked that were licensed properly for free non commercial editable use i m very picky when it comes to aesthetics and really wanted to keep my cactus theme since cacti have a personal meaning to me as a unique flora they are beautiful strong resilient contradictory and enigmatic also i didn t want two very different images since visually for me at least i really prefer thematic consistency which is probably my ocd kicking in luckily i found some images i was happy with even more so later when i got to editing the editing part came fairly naturally i opened my base photo first edited the brightness contrasts to make it pop saturation and hue to make it more green and mystical looking and set the size to the necessary dimensions for my wordpress theme then i opened the additional image of a single round cactus tinkered with the saturation hue and contrast again and free hand cut the image to make it rounder around certain edges finally placing pasting it atop the right side of my base image edited un cropped base image with altered hue saturation contrast etc original photo via wikimedia commons before this assignment however i hadn t actually known of pixlr but i think i can now use this in my everyday life to make my social media more visually interesting as well as use the software to edit images for some sites and blogs i run or work for since it s an open online software too i am definitely happy to know i can use it anywhere not just on my laptop or desktop at home in phreaks hackers and trolls coleman talks about the emergence cultural implications and popularity of internet memes noting that these are always under constant modification by users p 109 this got me thinking about image editing and remixing since most web users i think anyway are always saving and taking images they find that they like and editing or altering them into something new and valuable in their own right adding their own spin or perspective on it i think that s what this assignment had us do as well metablogging visual blogging cactus google image search header image editing pixlr wikimedia commons previous articles categories audio metablogging
