30 Second Voice Over        
 For my 30 Second Voice Over I decided to take a humorus approach to the project. I composed on 
Garageband a commercial for an Iranian Kids Show called "Jihad Kids Show" which begins with Middle Eastern Strings and climakes with an  explosion followed by children cheering. The commercial continues with a techno grove with the strings and a high pitched voice saying "DEATH TO AMERICA". The commercial ends with the announcing of the show and a farm animal...guess what it is. 
                                           


3 Minute Composition  
 For my 3 Minute Comosition, I made a slow expressive song passed upon a few phrases that I have comprised over the years. It starts off with a drop of water and follows with an introduction of a string orchestra.The orchestra is followed by a solo piano which brings the song into it's main motif with the supporting strings. Next the strings fall down in whole tone seventh chords, which is a bridge to a repeat of the main motif. The song ends with a D major chord from the strings and back to the drop of water. Overall the song is set up in a ABCB Form (A-intro, B-main motif, C-bridge, B-motif).                                      


Podcast
For my podcast I decided to make a movie on the modern day orchestra. The images on the movie were found on the internet and go through the different instruments in the orchestra. I used music from famous orchestra works like Beethoven's 5th, Tchaikovsky's The Nutcraker Suite, Wagner's Ride of the Valkeries, and Tchaikovsky's 4th Symphony. The work overall is as funny as it is educational, I think people will enjoy it.
