Animation FATP

So for my animations I'm going to show a discussion between two characters about twitter in a somewhat comedic fashion. Here's my FATP:

Focus: Why do people use twitter?
Audience: The Class
Topic: Twitter
Purpose: To entertain

Hopefully you all will find it funny and a little ironic.

Podcast: Reflection

Overall I thought this was a pretty cool and fun assignment to do. For this project I bascially made an audio version of my presentation, so the FATP was very similar and I already had much of my content for it. Putting it all into a scrip was enjoyable. The whole time I was writing it I just thought "What would be something I would hear on the radio that was informative?" Immediately of NPR so I think my style came out similar. Audacity was a fun tool to use as well. Very easy to figure and the process of putting together the show was cool to see happen in front of my screen, like where to cue the music, how to fade it in and out, along with where to put the sound effects. Houndbite proved to be a simple but effective as well. It was very straight forward on how upload my podcast and share it. I'm hoping more of our assignments will be like this.

Podcast: Practicing Good Webdesign.
