Behind the Scenes of Editing I've always been into editing my pictures on social media platforms such as Instagram and VSCO. It's become one of those things that I do whenever I am bored or just for the fun of it. However, with these apps all you have to do is give it a single click and a filter will be applied to your picture. It's never occurred to me what goes behind the scenes when it comes to creating a filter. A conflict came when I began to create a filter; I wasn't sure how it was going to make each of the three images look like.

I am involved in Greek Life as a member of...

The four finds of audio that were mentioned in the article were interview clips, voice-overs, natural sounds, and ambient sounds. After reading the four k...
