I’m finally
finished my podcast!! I am definitely happy with my podcast considering that I don’t
have an actual microphone and that this is the first time I have ever recorded
anything! Looking back on this project, I realize that I have learned so much,
especially since I am not very good with technology. I mean come on! I learned
how to create an entire podcast episode from scratch! Aside from the recording
and editing aspect, I have also learned many new skills and techniques to
efficiently research any given topic. Although this project was extremely
challenging and intimidating, I am glad I stuck with it because I have learned
so many new skills that I can use outside of this class!
If I had
more time or the chance to go back and do something differently, there are a
few things I’d change. For starters, I would have gotten a microphone! I think
(and I’m still not sure about this) that having a mic would have helped me get
rid of the echo-ish sound I have in my podcast. Also, I would learn more about
the recording software (Audacity) that I used. Audacity has lots of effects and
tools that I have absolutely no idea how to use. If I had plenty more time, I would
have learned to use each of these tools and this may have enhanced my podcast.
For all you
future students, my message would be to not be intimidated and get started as
soon as possible! This project will take much longer than you think! Although
this seems like a huge project, don’t stress out too much about it. Just take
it one step at a time! By the end of it, you’ll realize how much you’ll have
learned and feel pretty good about how much you’ve accomplished!
Good luck
everyone!
