This week i think i almost finish my project, but i am still collecting interesting sounds from school~

this is a picture of my screen, and you can see that i add lots of buttons this time. (about 20 buttons)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

SOS~!!!!!!!!!!

Simon~!!! i think i am in big trouble right now….i was working on my flash and my computer just…died…

it showed like that almost 3 hours….and when i reopen my flash file…they are all broken  and some of them are not under control…..i try to fix them …but i cant…i think there is something wrong with my flash software…

i am sooooooooooo sad…..i think i cant show it in class tmr….but i can show it to u when we meet…

these are some of my sketch…

now is  4 AM…i try to fix it all night…but i cant…..i am really tired….i have to go to sleep right now …

c u tmr….. (T-T)…..

This is my production plan:

and this week i was still working on collecting sounds, cutting them and designing the shape of lines in my flash. because i don’t know how to make the sound to play continue, so i have another idea to fix it.i will make 5~8buttons in each area to make the sounds  feeling different and volume. just like this picture:

but i am lucky, because this is a very interesting show in north building. i got lots of interesting sounds from this show.

there are the links for 5 of my sounds:

5.https://player.soundcloud.com/player.swf?url=http%3A%2F%2Fapi.soundcloud.com%2Ftracks%2F28573809 Music by Jing Shi

this is the link for my video. i found that when i was recording sounds in north building,this is a light motion sensor electronic project. this electronic dog can make the sounds like a horse.

so on that day, i collected about 38 pieces of  sounds. this is the screenshot from my computer. and these files are all from my iphone. i think i will cut them into 60 pieces and mix them together.

these are my sounds forders.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i got the map of the north building from the reception.

i changed the mouse to a flashing ball, it is a small movie.

and i designed 4 kinds of effects to show in my flash.

1. when u move the mouse to this button, it will shows a square and change color  from pink to purple and repeat.

2. it just show one time and disappear:

3. it will disappear and show again. repeat~

4. when u move your mouse to the button, it will appear.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

i am Sorry that i post it so late~ i try to upload my sounds to myspace…but….i dont know how to use that….i am really sorry about it. and these two weeks i was still working on collecting sounds, cutting them, mixing and making flash.

i  have 5~10 different sounds for one classroom, and i use Audacity to mix them together.

and this time, i just show some pics of my sketch on my blog, and tomorrow i will show a flash to explain my work.

10.25~11.3:

next week i will have 4 volunteers for my project, they are Huan, Alice, Kay and Sky.   they will help me to collect sounds from their classrooms, and i will post some videos on the blog to show the process.

i am still working on research, i want to study more about how to use flash software to make buttons. and i got some useful info from some Chinese websites. (this are the links , but i am sorry that i have to use chinese website , it is much easier for me to study~><!)

For my final project ” Sound of Emily Carr”, i have  5 steps to do:

1. collecting specific and interesting sounds in school:

I have already collected some sounds from ecu’s washroom, classrooms, cafe and art gallery, but i still need some time to choose which are good  in this project.

2. cut these sounds in software:    Audacity

3. adjust the sounds’ volume in software:  Goldwave

4. use flash:

i will import these sounds to the software flash and make lots of  invisible buttons.

5. upload my  webpage ” sound of emily carr“ on internet:

so people from  all over the world can come and check this website.

This is my production plan for my final project. but i think  maybe i can not finish it in this semester  because this is a big project for me. i will keep on working on it and try my best.
