For this project, we have to recreate a song with our voice and/or found song. I mainly record the whole song with my voice in different layer. I had a problem when i try to record my voice while playing other loop at the same time. It will somehow record my voice in a weird way or not recording at all. Therefore, i have to record different loops in a exact tempo, which gave me a big headache.
I used some effects like fade in/ fade out, echo, and some new features in beta version like GVerb. I think the beta version is more handy, because it allow me to record, cut & paste at any point. Also, there are like doubled effects in the newer version.
My song is a theme song from the Simpson's movie called "Spider Pig", which i think was very funny and within a length of exactly 45 seconds. I am not confident with my own voice, so, i add a final touch on the voice by changing its speed... :P it turned out great, i think...
This is my sound exercise, and all my work was done in Audocity. I spent most of my time with tone, because it was kind fun when ?? played with it. I used all four loops Peter gave us. What i did was cut and paste the piano loop and reorganized it into some kind of loop; i also changed the tempo and pitch to make it sounds more fun. For bignoizything, I only duplicate it several times to make it longer. I used Wahwah and changed the tempo on the President Bush's speeches.

This is a vector project, using Adobe Illustrator to editing three chosen quotes. I used a lot of tools in this project, from text & shapes to transform, and Effects. and its fun playing with all the features. I also played with layers, and surprised that there can be layers under layers.
This is a vector exercise using Adobe Illustrator (CS4). I have played a little bit illustrator when i was in high school, but we only touched a little bit on it. The fonts i used are "cracked (CREATIVITY)", "Stencil Std Bold (IDEA)", "Myriad Pro (ART194)"...etc. The tools i used are Type Tool, Ellipse Tool, Envelope, Recolor Artwork...etc. The texts contain in this art work are "ART194 Vector - Creativity, Imagination, Idea".
This is the final piece of my photomontage project. Didn't get a good start finishing my first project on time, and I am sorry to turned this in late. This is a a building not too far away from our classroom. I believe its name is Lattie F. Coor Hall. Buildings that have a lot of windows always come to my favorite list, because they symbols the modern architecture and always reflect lights from the sun, which shines a lot. I took about 10 pictures on this building in different days, and used almost all of them on my work. The picture didn't line up exactly straight, but i kind like the feeling of its in-straightness. The tool i used were mostly copy&paste, crop and transform.
