Pocket Scavenger- Something That was Part of a Tree- Practice Audio Story

In Digital Storytelling, we were assigned any page out of the pocket scavenger and to create a sound story out of it. I chose the 48th objective entitled "Something That was Part of a Tree." I took this idea of finding something that was once a part of a tree and made it into something more. I found a trig that was once a part of a tree and laying beneath it. The twig was near a road/parking lot and surrounded by many fallen leaves. It was also near a construction zone outside of Krebs hall on UPJ's campus. With this, we were asked to 1. Find a thing, 2. Record ambient noise from that location, 3. Record a sound of the thing, 4. Choose an alteration and record the alteration sound, and 5. Write up story.

Here is what I came up with!!

My audio story contained:

1. The thing found: Twig

2. Noise from the location:

• hear a car drive by
• leaves crunching under my feet while I walk to pick up the twig
• can hear construction vehicles at work on the Murtha building
• some fidgeting while walking

3. Sound of the thing:

• I repeatedly tapped the twig off a table

4. Alteration sound:

• I broke the twig with my fingers 4 times in different spots

5. Write up:
