Today we will focus on a few tasks needed to complete the drafts of our audio essays.

To begin, we will look over the files that were created for our improv project from Wednesday.

Next, we will experiment with adding the LAME library to our audacity projects and exporting in mp3 format.

First, reopen the file you were experimenting with on Wednesday

Next, download and install the LAME library. Follow these links and instructions.

Once you have installed the library, export your audio project in mp3 format: File > Export Audio 

If all works well, you should be able to save an mp3 file. If you don't get this to work, we can troubleshoot, but it is not a problem and you can continue to use WAV format for exports as needed.

Next, we will review the instructions from Monday to make sure everyone has the ability to get audio from clips they find online.

We will also look over a page with links to samples that may be of use.

Finally, we will go over the steps for uploading your audio essay drafts.


For homework, complete the draft of your audio essay and upload it before class on Monday.
