I would like to expand on my sound project from the audio project, which was a story-based podcast. In this podcast, I told my favorite personal story. For my final project, I hope to have multiple episodes of this. Each episode will be a different person telling their own favorite personal story. I hope to get all different kinds of stories to create a dynamic podcast. The only difference between these episodes, and the one I made for the audio project will be that they won’t be as scripted as my first podcast. I hope to practice a little bit of interview skills and use a conversation to spur details about each person’s favorite story. I will incorporate sound effects to create more tension.
For my final project, I will be incorporating elements from each project we have had thus far. From the video portfolio, I hope to incorporate the remixing of Creative Commons material to create a theme song for the podcast. Most podcasts I listen to have an interesting and catchy theme song and this will be a unifying factor in my podcast episodes. Because this project is an audio project, it will replicate and expand the audio portfolio in many ways. Lastly, I hope to incorporate the story-building aspect of the text portfolio. I hope to use the story arc to build tension and create a compelling final project.
In all, I hope to create 2-3 episodes, depending on the length of the stories and the amount of editing that I put into editing the content. I personally enjoy hear people talking about things that they are passionate about or hearing interesting stories through audio format. I hope to better my audio editing skills with this project as this is something I hope to use in my future career.
