Title: Please leave a message at the Beep
Semester/Year: Spring 2022
Software: Audacity
Description:
As a child, I used to watch a bunch of sitcoms. From Home Improvement, Fresh Prince of Bel-Air, to The Steve Harvey Show. However, my audio project was inspired from my favorite sitcom of all time and probably the greatest sitcom of all time, Seinfeld. In the 8th season and the 5th episode, George Costanza creates an iconic answering machine greeting. I decided to recreate my own version, as my friend leaves me a message of a trip he just returned from. I combined four audio samples and had to do a video to mp3 to wav conversion in order to get the samples to work on audacity.
