Matchbox 20 Soundslide



My SoundSlide project required taking my PowerPoint project and putting it into a new program. This program made it capable for me to post my slide show in my blog! The goal of uploading my PowerPoint to soundslide was so that I was able to have it on my blog and also have the work I did with the Audacity program online. I wanted my audacity to be perfect, I used the beginning of the song "Unwell" by Matchbox 20. I think my final turned out really well =). My goal was to use audacity so that my final did not sound like it had been edited. I also really wanted to learn how to post a slideshow online so that I can display to other people my hard work.
The most challenging part of this assignment was that I missed the class on audacity, so I had to fool around with the program on my own to figure out what to do. I had some help from my classmates but reading their notes and trying to figure it out is not as easy as taking my own notes in class. I had never worked with the audacity or soundslide programs before so that was an added challenge.
What I enjoyed most about this project was being able to share my slide show with music to whoever reads my blog! (Not sure if that is a lot of people, but I could always start sharing this link with friends and family outside of my Commm class)
I am most proud of figuring out somewhat on my own how to use these programs. Missing an ecomm class puts you fairly behind! Note to self: Don't miss another.
With more time, I would have experimented more with the audacity program and maybe not just used songs by Matchbox 20. I am glad I now know how to work that program so if I ever need music mixed again I can do it on my own!

  1. You did an awesome job lining up the beats! It's seamless. For someone who missed the Audacity class you really made up for it :)
