Audio Story Final: Jeep Wave

Jeep Wave: Myth or Fact?


For weeks now, I have been trying to uncover the truth behind whether the Jeep wave is a myth or a fact. Throughout my endeavors, I have spoken with several students at High Point University and even gained an experts opinion on the matter from Ilderton Dodge Chrysler Jeep Ram.

Jeep Wave: Myth or Fact?

Jeep Wave: Myth or Fact? Introduction Often, I have been a witness to what is known as the “jeep wave”, or a quick movement of the hand made by both Jeep drivers when passing by one another. With the hopes to find out just really what this Jeep Wave consists of, I went around and talked to a few of the student Jeep drivers at High Point University.  Creating the Podcast By only being able to create a quick 30 second recap of the interviews and introduction that I recorded, I had to be picky and creative when choosing what content to piece together.

I began by importing the finalized version of my audio story and adding in the still images I collected. Once I had all of my pictures into the project, I needed to figure out how to resize them to fit within the frame and add some type of effect or motion. Struggles One frustrating point was dealing with sequence settings. I learned that each image needed to share the same sequence setting and once I changed it, my images reset and I had to resize them all again.

Four Kinds of Audio : Interview Clips: a young girl is in the radio studio on her birthday to record and send her father (who went missing and has not come home) a message. It is played to further engage the listeners with her story and create a sense of empathy, bringing her story to life. Voice-overs: clips from the Colombian radio show were inserted in Reporter Annie Correal’s introduction to help the listeners get a better sense for what the show is about. (also adding in recordings of families calling into the show to leave messages for those who were able to listen) Natural Sounds: the reporter changes gears to begin talking about car jacking’s. Behind her commentary is natural sounds of traffic and cars rumbling.    Ambient Sounds: background noise of the radio station was added in to make the listener feel like they were with the individual who went in to visit the station and record a message. There are people talking quietly, typing on k...
