What worked well?

The final podcast being fully made between 4 people actually worked out well. The final podcast managed to sound in sync and very similar to each other you can tell a slight difference in editing but it remain consistent. We all managed to get a long as it was a topic we enjoyed.

I faced technical issues on Attempt 0 when moving to audacity at first. I managed to complete this podcast but then it got errored and I could not recover my work. However, I pushed forwards and managed to create another copy which ended up in the final podcast.

What didn’t work well?

Teamwork makes the dream work is a very popular saying however, I did struggle this is because my goal was to make a podcast that was similar to everyone else sections limiting my control over my sections. I wanted to change the pitch of the section to make it sound more like Alvin and the chipmunks for a little bit of comedy however, that would not suit the others work. As the main goal was to make it seamless which, we did meet this goal. I also feel like we needed better microphones this is because they was very sensitive to noises so the tiny tap would have been picked up instantly. I also feel like having a better area to record would have been better however, the college provided us with the best room they could therefore, we did our best to edit it out.

At first we struggled a lot with the equipment that was given to us. However, Josh came up with the amazing idea to use his Mac-Book and therefore, helped significantly but that still had issues as it would still pick up background noise but at least not as much as the microphones given via the college.

Overall

My overall skills I have developed and thoughts I had on the unit was mostly positive with the odd 1 or 2 things getting in the way. Teamwork is a industry standard technique and is important for the work placement.

What could I do differently next time?

Next time, I would of liked to have done more for the project. This is because my role was basic. This is because I was editing intro and outro the smaller sections this was decided because I did want to make my own podcast editing wise however, that backfired and therefore, I only had time to do a share one. This was because I significantly over thought the writing process as I feel like I have written too little and kept trying to beef it up then realised that none of it was relevant to the podcast. I also over thought the production as it felt too simple to do and wanted to add multiple things.
