Help create the sound of Atlassian šŸŽ¶

Hi Community Friends! šŸ¤©

Weā€™re creating the sound of Atlassian (aka our sonic brand) and need your help! In true Atlassian fashion, weā€™re making this a team effort. Read on if youā€™re interested in contributing your voice, snaps, claps, stomps, or musical talents. Youā€™ll be contributing to Atlassian history. 

šŸŽµ Whatā€™s a sonic brand & why does it matter?

Ever recognize a company from sound alone? Thatā€™s a sonic logo ā€“ just one element of a sonic brand ā€“ youā€™re hearing! Companies like Intel, McDonaldā€™s, and NBC have some of the most well-known sonic logos around.

Atlassian is creating a sonic brand, and we need community members like YOU to truly make it the sound of Atlassian.

šŸ¤š How can I contribute to Atlassianā€™s sonic brand?

Weā€™re sourcing recordings from our community to help create a collaborative sonic brandYou will not be personally identified, but your sound(s) may be woven into our sonic branding.

Wondering how this will all work? You can think of our forthcoming sonic brand as Atlassianā€™s core ā€œsongā€. The sounds we collect from yā€™all will be layered into those songs. More to come on the final product, but for now, follow these steps to contribute (Deadline: SEPT 15):

1ļøāƒ£ Choose one of the following options (or go for both!)

Option 1: VOICE RECORDING šŸ—£

Using your phone, record yourself saying "Atlassian.ā€ [atĀ·laĀ·seeĀ·uhn]

Capture 3 different takes. Count to 2 between each take. Speak naturally, just like youā€™re talking to a friend.

Option 2: SOUND RECORDING šŸ„

Using your phone, record one of the following:

  • 5 x Snaps

  • 5 x Claps

  • 5 x Stomps

  • 20 seconds of you playing a single musical instrument

Count to 2 between each snap, clap, or stomp. We want to capture the echo in between each action.

ā­ļø Step-by-step recording instructions

1) Open your phoneā€™s voice recording app:

  • iOSUse Voice Memos app (comes w/ phone)
  • AndroidAndroid apps differ, but try Voice Recorder

2) Place your phone microphone (the bottom of phone) 6-12 inches (15-30 centimeters) from your mouth or the object that will make a sound (a bit further if youā€™re clapping or stomping loudly).

3) Press record

4) Record your chosen sound, leaving a gap at the beginning and ending of your recording (and leaving a 2-sec gap in between each take of your takes)

5) Stop recording

6) Name file ā€œSound of Atlassianā€

7) Send file to sonicbrand@atlassian.com:

Lovely @shannyshan I just emailed the "Sound of Atlassian šŸŽ¼šŸŽ¶ for both the options". This activity has taken some stress out of me if you believe it or not.
