Here are some tips for improving your nursery rhyme audio piece based on your reflection:
- Add more sound effects to bring the story to life. Things like footsteps going up the hill, the pail of water splashing, Jack falling and crashing, Jill tumbling after him. These sounds help the listener visualize what's happening.
- Vary the volume and placement of sounds. Have footsteps louder on one side as Jack passes by, then softer on the other side as he moves away. This adds a sense of space and movement.
- Consider adding background ambience like birds chirping to set the scene of being outside on a hill. Subtle noises help immerse the listener.

The poem describes a father listening to his daughter writing in her room. He hears the sounds of her typing and pauses to reflect on her life experiences. While he wishes her an easy passage, she seems to reject this idea through her writing. The father sees his daughter's life as a cargo she carries, with some experiences being heavy burdens. He uses metaphors of a trapped bird to represent her working through challenges of her life and adolescence through writing at her desk.

The Frog and The Nightingale by Adarsh KaushikAdarsh Kaushik
The poem tells the story of a frog and nightingale in Bingle Bog. The frog loudly croaks every night, annoying the other creatures, until the nightingale's beautiful singing captivates everyone. The cunning frog then convinces the nightingale he can train her singing, but he relentlessly criticizes her and overworks her for his own profit. Though the nightingale's singing brings crowds, her declining health and the loss of her original style leads to her death, which the frog dismisses as her own fault.

The jealous frog then takes the nightingale under his wing, claiming to train her singing. However, he works the nightingale relentlessly and scolds her constantly. Overworked and miserable, the nightingale's health declines until she dies. The poem serves as a warning about being too easily influenced by strangers.

Here is a summary of your evaluation:
Your research helped shape the script and provided guidance on the overall product. Planning could have been improved to visualize changes. Time management was adequate but extra time could have been used to further refine sounds and script. Technical qualities were similar to existing horror works with effective use of pauses and sound effects, though custom music would have enhanced tension building. Aural qualities conveyed a diary/interview style through tone and effects, but pace could have been varied to add excitement. The documentary would appeal to ages 16-30 as an intriguing yet not overly scary listen suitable for casual consumption. Overall insights will help strengthen future audio work.
Here are a few things you could improve on for future projects:
- Be more flexible with your initial plans and ideas. Don't be afraid to pivot if something isn't working.
- Do more research on storytelling techniques like building tension. Understanding how to craft an engaging narrative is important.
- Plan your production schedule better. Leave more time for editing and polishing versus coming up with new ideas last minute.
- Get feedback earlier from others. Sharing drafts of your script or sounds could help catch issues before the end.
Overall it's great you were willing to change course when needed. With some tweaks to your planning process, your next audio project will benefit. The most important thing is
Here are some suggestions for improving your audio production process:
- Back up your work frequently. Save versions as you make progress rather than just overwriting one file. This prevents losing work if files get corrupted.
- Organize your audio files clearly in folders on your computer. Name them descriptively so you always know what they are.
- Consider using a DAW (digital audio workstation) like Audacity or Adobe Audition instead of just Premiere Pro. DAWs are designed specifically for audio editing and mixing.
- Record clean audio sources from the start if possible rather than trying to clean up noisy recordings later. Redo recordings if needed.
- Leave more time for testing and revisions

Here are some key things I learned from recording in different places:
- Location is extremely important. Noisy environments like near roads make it very difficult to get clean audio recordings without unwanted background noise. Quieter indoor spaces or isolated outdoor areas work much better.
- The type of microphone matters. More professional mics are better at isolating the voice/sound and reducing background noise. Consumer mics often pick up too much ambient sound.
- Soundproofing helps. Recording in a makeshift booth or closet can block out echoes and external sounds. Hanging blankets can act as soundproofing in a pinch.
- Test your setup beforehand. Do a test recording to check for any issues before your actual recording

The document outlines Thea Jennings' initial plans for a video game project, including creating a simple matching game inspired by Candy Crush and Pokémon Shuffle using shaped characters instead of drawings. A mind map and mood board were created focusing on bright colors and matching game images to influence the final product. A schedule was set with weekly tasks over 5 weeks including production experiments, product research, a proposal, planning and evaluation. At least 7 sources for the project were identified including Candy Crush, video game overviews, articles about match-3 games, the King website and lists of similar games.
Thea Jennings documented her experiments using different animation tools. She used the ellipse tool to create a red ball, the path selection tool to move the ball, and the timeline tool to animate the ball bouncing up and down. In subsequent experiments, she used the gradient tool to create an animated background and the rectangular tool to draw the ground. For her final product, she plans to use shape tools to create characters and the gradient tool for the background. In another experiment, Thea used the website Beepbox to create video game music in the soundtrack style, and she will include this music in her final product.

An exposure rule is given that shutter speed should not exceed the lens focal length when shooting handheld. Good practice for setting up a tripod securely is also mentioned.
The document provides an evaluation of a film magazine production project. It summarizes the student's research process, planning, time management, technical and aesthetic qualities of the project, and intended audience. It also includes feedback from three peers. The student agrees with feedback that the font needs to be more readable and the title bigger. The student disagrees that images were too dark. Based on the feedback, the student would change the font, add the price and date, and increase the title size.
The student created a magazine cover and double page spread for a movie review of Mary Poppins Returns. For the cover, they found a poster image, barcode, and used a bold white font for the title against a colored background. For the spread, they used a red and blue gradient for the background colors featured in the film. They added a split line, two movie stills, and wrote a review with the subtitle "practically perfect in every way!".
This document outlines the pre-production, contingency planning, health and safety considerations, and schedule for creating a magazine layout project in Photoshop. Potential issues that may arise during the project are identified along with proposed solutions, such as using alternative computers or creating original images if stock images cannot be found. A weekly schedule is provided detailing the planned tasks and required resources for each day such as collecting images, designing the cover and double page spreads, writing reviews, and conducting peer reviews and evaluations.
This proposal is for a magazine about movies. The magazine will focus on the movie Mary Poppins Returns with a double page spread feature. The purpose is to entertain movie lovers of all ages and genders. To appeal to this audience, the magazine will discuss how movies have become part of culture as a form of escapism. The content will not include any offensive, unethical, or illegal material that could target certain groups or violate copyright law. Everything created for the magazine will be original work.
This document analyzes existing film magazines and identifies common features to include in a new magazine. It examines three British and American film magazines - Total Film, Empire, and MovieMaker. All feature a major film title in bold on the cover and use capitalization and bold colors/fonts for article titles to appeal to readers visually. The research will inform the creation of a new magazine that utilizes common film industry vocabulary identified in the magazines. An audience profile shows the new magazine will target all ages, genders, and social classes by keeping costs low and content broadly appealing.
The document describes experiments for a magazine design. It discusses using a photo of a fisherman holding a fish as the main image since the magazine is about fishing. Garamond font was used since it is a typical magazine font. A barcode was also included. In the reflection, the author notes they will use Garamond font and include a barcode in the final magazine design based on the experiments.
This document summarizes the evaluation of a production process for an FMP (final major project). It discusses research, planning, time management, technical qualities, aesthetic qualities, audience appeal, and peer feedback for the project. For research, the document describes exploring existing survival video games to understand common features and designing an audience profile. Planning involved using pre-existing pixelated characters. Time management challenges included taking on too many projects within the timeline. Peer feedback noted the well-drawn character and cityscape backdrop but suggested adding more animation frames and gameplay clarity. The document also reflects on strengths like sticking to the planned theme and areas for improvement such as adding more detail.
The document describes the process Thea Jennings took to create a video game cover. She began by finding an image of earthquakes in a city to depict visually. Then she selected a cracked rock font. For the age rating, she chose teen as the target audience is 13-18 years old. To keep the player character unknown, she used a silhouette on the cover standing on the edge of a building looking at destruction. Lastly, she added a black box for the character to stand on to complete the cover's scene.
The document outlines the pre-production process for a disaster-themed game. It includes color palettes chosen to associate with disaster films, three fonts selected to match the earthquake theme. Potential props, locations, and images are listed. Contingency plans address computer compatibility issues, image sourcing problems, and pixel art quality concerns. Health and safety risks of computer use like eye strain are considered. An 8-day schedule is provided for tasks like character creation, backgrounds, animation, and peer review.
This proposal outlines an earthquake survival video game. The game aims to entertain 13 to 18 year olds by placing them in dramatic earthquake scenarios. It will be an open world, multiplayer game where survival skills are tested. The developer plans to include realistic earthquake elements in their research-informed design, while avoiding offensive, unethical, or legally problematic content through age restrictions and distinctiveness from other works.
This document discusses initial plans for a project that include a mind map, mood board, and mood board analysis. The mood board contains different images that each represent separate elements of a game without repetition. The mood board will influence the final product by reminding the creator of elements that need to be included in the game.
The document discusses research conducted for a survival disaster game. It summarizes three existing products about surviving a zombie apocalypse, war, and earthquake. It notes that the common features are being set in survival times. It also states that the new game will be open world and multiplayer, like the researched games. An audience profile targets teens aged 13-18 by including tragic scenarios, and aims to be affordable for people of various genders and social classes.
The document defines key terms like denotation and connotation and provides examples of how different words and objects have both denotative and connotative meanings. It then analyzes several movie posters, examining the colors, costumes, props, locations, lighting, and expressions of the actors to understand the intended meanings and themes being conveyed.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

about what went well, what could be better and
what you have learned.
This is my foley task and I think the recording went
really well but I think I should have done better by
making the volume of my music the same as my
recording so they wouldn't overlap.
• You should include a link and a screen shot. Don’t
embed your work, it won’t work.
• https://youtu.be/bTn7bUl9ovI
13. Recording
• Write about your experiences of recording in
different places.
• I recorded in places such as a hallway and room.
• What effect did it have? How will this influence
your project?
• I found out that recording in hallways makes your
voice echo a lot and the recorder picks
up conversations being held in the hallway and I
also found out that when you record in a studio
room it's more quieter and the recorder can only
pick up the speaker's voice
14. Garage Band
• Include your work with Garage Band, and some
writing about what went well, what could be better
and what you have learned.
• This is my Garage Band task and I think the mixing
went really well and I tried out different voices but I
think I should have done better by having a better
understanding of how to create proper music

Intro music
They follow the same neat routine every day. The boy wakes up to the sound of that unpleasant alarm at 6 AM every morning,(clock alarm sound effect)
Monday through Friday. I listen carefully to the sheets rustling above me(sheets rustling) as he tosses, turns, shifts in his bed struggling to force himself
awake. On the occasion that he falls back asleep in the safe warm embrace of his bedding, face nuzzled sweetly against his puffy down pillow, his mother
will come in.
Music
Now, his mother often wakes up at 5 in the morning, a beautiful time when the light of the morning sun is still waking with the rest of Earth’s creatures. I
can move more freely at this time, though risky as it may be. I watch her arise; her husband lies silent, still consumed by a world of dreams. I follow her to
the bathroom and watch while she cleans her face, brushes her teeth (water running and teeth brushing sound effect) and prepares for the day. Sometimes
she sees me, but never thinks anything of it; how exhilarating those days are, to make eye contact with the people who house me. As she wanders down
stairs to prepare breakfast,(waking down stairs sound effect) we part ways and visit the boy. As I mentioned earlier, on occasion he will sleep in, much like
today. I stretched out and relaxed, awaiting the mothers’ arrival; it was always pleasant to be in the company of my family.
She arrived on schedule. With breakfast ready she wouldn’t be letting him sleep any longer. I have watched this week after week and in my humble opinion
it is this behavior that makes the child feel he can sleep as he pleases; this routine is what gives me strength, what gives me confidence. My eyes follow the
door as it opens (door opening sound effect) and I watch her fuzzy slippers step closer. Her skin smells so sweet. For a woman of her age, her soft flesh is so
tightly wrapped around her legs, it is all I can do to stay put and not act on instinct. I let the aroma fill my nostrils and allow her voice to dance along my
ears. She walks out of the room and soon my vision is obscured by cartoon character pajamas and bare feet. His toes are so small, so delectable, little treats
on little feet. I reach out to touch them, my claws leaving the safe haven of darkness that conceals all that go bump in the night. The light burns my flesh as
my claws sprout from under the bed; they brush against his clothes, so very close to that youthful perfection. The pain surges through my hand, my arm, it’s
almost more than I can handle. I reach forward to grab his ankle and he steps away. I pulled my hand back under the bed, nursing the burns, but the thrill of
the hunt filled me with glee. I am so proud of how good she is to him and how much he is growing into a little man. I fade into the shadows and vanish from
his room.

The father was still asleep. It’s 7 AM now, the bus should be arriving for the little one soon and how I will miss him. I
contemplate following him to school, but risk outweighs reward. Exciting as the thought is; to be left stranded in a
school yard, even though I would be blessed with tender morsels left and right, I may not make it home. Last thing I
would want is to leave my home unguarded, to come back and find it claimed by another. No, I must defend my home;
defend my people, till their bitter end. From their closet I watched the father sleep. The door was left cracked open this
morning. He disgusts me; he is by no means a pleasant person. His flesh is coated in filth and only does he bathe when
forced by the wife. I find myself all too often eagerly awaiting his departure to work. Ever since he changed his schedule
to a later shift, I have found my routine has been shattered. Oh, how I miss the days that he would be out the door
before his wife rose so that I would have her all to myself; how I could be there for the child and admire the beauty in
his ignorance. Now, I’m afraid I must tiptoe from the morning to the afternoon, my time alone with the woman is no
longer so. Yes, I can watch her from the mirrors, brush against her as she sinks into the couch, but no longer do I posses
the luxury of freedom. The father will leave shortly before the boy returns, with this I find solace. The sun will begin to
dip down below the horizon while he slaves away the hours at his job.
Music
As night dominates the sky I can move as I wish, inside and outside of my home. Well, I used to go outside. Lately I have
noticed prying eyes gazing at my family from the windows, concealed by darkness. I am tempted to get rid of them, but
I don’t know how many wait, and I can’t risk leaving my people exposed. My kind grows very envious of those of us
with homes and families of our own, they seek to destroy our success and ruin everything we worked so hard to
accomplish. I’ve found myself staring out the window, watching as shadows jump from street light to street light,
contemplating if the less fortunate can be of use to me. I may have a decision soon; perhaps tomorrow night I can have
a chat with a little one.
They call today, Saturday, and I share mixed feelings for this one. I have my humans all day, but this also means the foul
one lounges on the couch, shoveling filth down his gullet and barking at my people like a savage beast. Today was a
true test of my self control. Today he hit my boy.
19. Script Draft
The little one was running around, talking about his school week and what simple things his brain consumed. He was so excited; I
was so excited, I wanted to embrace him and share my pride, but to do so would be disastrous for us both. I watched as he spread
his joy across the house, but anxiety and fear grabbed hold of me when he approached his father. I could see what was going to
happen as the boy tugged on his father’s sleeve and talked louder than the television in feeble hopes of gaining his parent’s
attention. I saw the disdain on the large one’s face. I felt the rumble of his growl as the boy continued. My claws dug into my
hands as I waited, helplessly. Then it happened, he struck my boy(hitting sound effect) while shouting profanity(man shouting
sound effect). The child ran to his room, holding back tears, refusing to show his pain. I was conflicted by the need to follow him,
and the need to gut this beast and hang him by his entrails. Saturday is the day I decided he had to go.
Night fell quickly, and once they were in their beds I sneaked outside. I could see the hungry eyes staring from the bushes, trees,
rooftops, they were so eager to claim my home. “I only need one of you,” I snarled, my well fed form towering over the lesser
creatures of the night. “I am looking for a little Lust,” I called out, and not a moment later several starved demons scurried before
me. They snapped and slashed at one another, until I snatched a smaller one up and held it up by its leathery tail; the others
quickly disappeared into the night. “I have a deal to make with you,” my voice rumbled in dominance at the tiny creature that
stared fearfully into my massive eyes. “I will share my wealth with you in exchange for the removal of the alpha-male in this
home. I need it done discreetly and I grow angrier every day I can’t maim or massacre him. Will you assist me?” I asked it, giving
not a hint of room for refusal. The creature seemed compliant so I closed my hands over it and returned to the safety of my home.
I scaled the stairs in strides and soon was looking down the gaping maw of the monster, snoring away beside the beautiful woman
I cared so much for. Once more I held my new weapon by its tail and dropped it into the man’s mouth, it slid effortlessly down his
throat without invoking so much as a stir in his sleep. It was the perfect match. I felt better.
As the days went by, the father grew more distant from his family. He earned a promotion at work, had increased hours, and was
often away on business. My life was improving exponentially, but this was only the beginning.
20. Script Draft
Music
Peacefully I watched my boy sleep. I wanted to move in closer, but if I did, he wouldn’t be the same. As I lost myself in
happy thoughts, they were interrupted by shouting (argueing parents sound effect) in the parent’s room. The father
came home intoxicated tonight; this isn’t a strange occurrence, but he slipped up. The father was supposed to be on a
business trip this weekend. Not only was he home a day early, but there was lipstick on his neck. My heart filled,
swelled with joy as the wife began striking him with a lamp and driving him out of the house. She found the strength to
get rid of that dead weight and I was so proud of her for that. We were finally all going to be one big happy family.
Music
My family has been doing well, but things have changed. They seem complacent; they seem content with their lives
and genuinely happy. I want to be happy for them, but I feel strange. When the father was around, I was so upset, so
disturbed, but I was powerful and a force to be reckoned with. The mother has taken to new habits; she admits when
she is wrong, she replaces punishment with a teachable moment, she has become so humble. If they are so happy, why
can’t I be?
Music
I feel so weak, I feel sick and I think I have been losing weight. I hadn’t thought about what I was doing and now I am
going to die for it. They will never know I existed, they will not miss me and I will rot away in the shadows. I only hope
the boy can fight off the demons that will nest and make this their home. He will have to forgive his father or invite in
Wrath. He must stay active in school and avoid Sloth. He cannot fall to the influences that consumed his father; I hope
that the mother will stay strong as well, and look out for him. When Lust took their father, she didn’t have to deal with
the abuse any longer; she could move on and be content… She didn’t have to be proud any more, but I will always be
Proud.

more I held my new weapon by its tail and dropped it into the man’s mouth, it slid effortlessly down his throat without invoking so much as a stir in
his sleep. It was the perfect match. I felt better.
• As the days went by, the father grew more distant from his family. He earned a promotion at work, had increased hours, and was often away on
business. My life was improving exponentially, but this was only the beginning.
25. Script Final
Peacefully I watched my boy sleep. I wanted to move in closer, but if I did, he wouldn’t be the same. As I
lost myself in happy thoughts, they were interrupted by shouting (argueing parents sound effect) in the
parent’s room. The father came home intoxicated tonight; this isn’t a strange occurrence, but he slipped
up. The father was supposed to be on a business trip this weekend. Not only was he home a day early,
but there was lipstick on his neck. My heart filled, swelled with joy as the wife began striking him with a
lamp and driving him out of the house. She found the strength to get rid of that dead weight and I was
so proud of her for that. We were finally all going to be one big happy family.
My family has been doing well, but things have changed. They seem complacent; they seem content
with their lives and genuinely happy. I want to be happy for them, but I feel strange. When the father
was around, I was so upset, so disturbed, but I was powerful and a force to be reckoned with. The
mother has taken to new habits; she admits when she is wrong, she replaces punishment with a
teachable moment, she has become so humble. If they are so happy, why can’t I be?
I feel so weak, I feel sick and I think I have been losing weight. I hadn’t thought about what I was doing
and now I am going to die for it. They will never know I existed, they will not miss me and I will rot away
in the shadows. I only hope the boy can fight off the demons that will nest and make this their home.
He will have to forgive his father or invite in Wrath. He must stay active in school and avoid Sloth. He
cannot fall to the influences that consumed his father; I hope that the mother will stay strong as well,
and look out for him. When Lust took their father, she didn’t have to deal with the abuse any longer; she
could move on and be content… She didn’t have to be proud any more, but I will always be Proud.

31. Daily Reflection Day 1
• Today I will be recording my creepypasta story
and to do this I will be recording the story on
the voice recorder that has been provided by
college and I recorded my story at least five
times and when I was finished I pick the first
recording I did because it had the most
emotion and depth within the character and I
added the file into a Premier Pro file so I can
edit it.
32. Daily Reflection Day 2
• Today I found all the sound effects and music
that I would need for my horror short story
audio recording and to do this I searched and
found them on YouTube and I downloaded
them into MP3 files using 2cov.com and I
saved them into the downloads folder so I
could access them easily.
33. Daily Reflection Day 3
• Today I opened Premier Pro and I added my
recording of my creepypasta story into the
premier pro file and then I added the sound
effects and added them to different parts of
the recording to make the story sound more
realistic.
34. Daily Reflection Day 4
• Today I opened my file on Premier Pro and I
added in the intro, outro and story music for
my recording, I also changed the pitch on
my voice whenever my main chractor was
speaking to make me sound more monstrus
and dark
36. Research
• I found the research pages really useful, the first thing I looked at was the
existing products which allowed me to look into the features used in other
audio projects like such as the Archers show and the Chilling Tales for Dark
Nights podcast and I discovered the different music, sound effects and
performances that are used depending on the type of audio, this meant I
could see what to include in my own product so
I didn’t include unnecessary features that wouldn’t match. I thought about
what made the audince listen to shows such as these. I felt like my
strength in the research section was doing the exsiating products research
and this helped my project by me knowing what kind of performance,
music or sound effects would make an audio project sound good. The
areas that were not helpful were that there were that there wasn't a lot
more reasarch projects for me to do which would have improved my final
product a lot more
37. Planning
• To plan my final product I firstly created a script draft of my story and to
do this I wrote the script in different colours, for example I wrote the
Narrator parts in red, the voice acting in light blue, the music in orange,
and finally the sound effects in green, afterwards I wrote a final script of
my story adding in where the sound effects and music would go,
afterwards I made a list of all the sound effects I would need for my audio
recording, next I made a list of the actors and locations I would need,
next I made a list of the music I would need, finaly,I made a list of all the
resources that I would need. I found that my strengths in planning was
writing up my draft and final scripts and this helped my product because I
knew exactly what to say and where the cues for the sound effects and
music were. I found that my weakness was considering my resorse list as
there wasn't a lot resources that I needed
38. Time Management
I felt like I have managed my time well and I successfully finished my production work on time. To
start with I recorded my story with a voice recorder and then I opened Premeir Pro and put my
audio recording in a new file, then I started adding the sound effects and the music to where I
thou then finally, I started my evaluation. I think that I would have done better If had understood
how to use premier pro and I was difficult for me to edit everything precisely.
39. Technical Qualities
To make my audio project as professional as it could be I added in realisc sound effects to make
the actions of the actors seem more realistic, I also added in royal free music so that the audio
sounds more original, Finaly I made the pitch of my voice deeper when my main character was
talking which is what many creepypasta storytellers do not do.
40. Aural Qualities
I think that my final product is really creative and unique. The aspects of my audio that I like is
when my sound effects happen and when my character speaks . If I was to improve my
final piece I would record the story a few more so that I wouldn't jumble over my words I think
that my biggest strength was sticking to the theme and colour scheme that I had chosen in my
planning. I think my weakness was creating all the aspects of the game so they all had
similar amount of detail.
41. Audience Appeal
The overall audience that my finished product would appeal to is anybody from all ages and
from all sex’s. It still doesn’t specially aim at any social group or psychographic. My final piece
would also appeal to anybody who loves horror stories and creepypastas as well as audio
dramas.My products would appeal to them because my product will cheap to buy because I
would sell them to people that belong the belongers class and it would also apply to all genders
because my team is all inclusive of all genders.
Editor's Notes
