\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 Using professional Adobe applications and Pro Tools, this unit taught us to create a compelling story, and to present it in an interesting and creative way through our audio as well as through our elective class. What I really valued from this Narrative One unit was learning how to create a story, from brainstorming ideas to the finished product. Learning how to tell a story through “showing not telling” was one of the most important things I learned in this unit as it helped me in thinking outside of the box and not explicitly stating things in my story.\u00a0 Overall, I improved as a storyteller because I now understand how to tell a much more effective story, making it more complex. I improved as a digital artist through using Illustrator, and fully understanding how to use it, as well as through using Pro Tools and understanding how to put together audio. This Narrative Unit is very important to me because it taught me to effectively tell stories, something that I have always wanted to be able to do.\u00a0<\/article>\n

……..<\/span>In\u00a0English, we were given the assignment to write a 3 to 5 page short story about whatever we wanted to write about. We had to think of our own characters, as well as create a full plot for our story. I ended up writing my story about a guy that goes to see his best friend in prison, and he learns something new in the process. My inspiration for this story is my love for heist movies and books, and in this story I thought about what might happen if the heist failed. After writing the story, I recorded myself telling the story and uploaded the audio into Adobe Audition. There, I added ambiance and music to create the mood that I wanted. I also added sound effects to certain parts of the story to make it come alive, and seem like the actions were actually happening. What I valued the most in the process of this story project was being able to find a new way to tell stories, using technology to make the story seem more real and exciting.<\/p>\n
