Production | My Site 1

Evidence:

In this screen shot, you can see the first 9 recordings that I took when filming my podcast. The main thing in this image is the "Intro/Outro" clips. There are so many of them due to the fact that I plan to add them over some music to make my introduction and outro. Going further down the list, there are two welcomes due to the fact that we had to rerecord and chose which was better, as we didn't know how to start it. We also decided that we should do the introducing the host separate from body part one and the welcome. Only because it gave us some time to practise and we felt that the body part one had to be all natural and not monotone and that this part could have affected it massively.

In the second piece of evidence, you can see how we did two other bodies instead of keeping all in one shot. This was because if we messed one part of the others up we would have to redo the full thing. This way we only had to redo a small part if this was the case. "The little snippet" was to help break the podcast up and add some sense of realism between me and the other two host instead of just being a story teller. Finally we have three goodbyes in a sense. Our first one is summing up the episode, what will happen next episode and a brief goodbye. The next one is a proper goodbye. Finally, the last one is a something just for fun that we decided to include.

The third piece of evidence is form when I was actually putting my piece together. It is showing what I explained in the first box and how I managed to create it to using Splice. It was rather simple as only had to layer it over and merge the two voice notes together. However, I couldn't really hear the added voice notes over the music. So I messed with the under layer and tweaked the volume to make it quieter. This really helped it stand out more, and it was less distracting and messy.

In the forth piece of evidence, the image is showing how was able to cut and edit voice notes so that the sizing was more appropriate and you miss the awkward pauses at the begging of each one and the same with the end. This really allowed me to make it seem more seamless and less chaotic. I was also able to cut parts that I didn't want in my podcast. This really was useful and I could easily adjust it to my liking. Each piece was easy to delete aswell.

Even after I took my time editing on Splice, I couldn't upload it to Podcasters, due to it saving into a video format. This meant I had to re-edit the full thing and I achieved this by trimming and placing each voice recording into podcasters. However, another issue arose, the into/outro couldn't be edited in podcasters. I was able to solve this by voice recording the edited one from splice and dragging it into podcasters.

Evidence:

All the above images, show the evidence of making my website. Each screen shot is from a page on my website and each one has at least two interactive elements. I have chosen these specific interactive elements as I feel like they help users feel involved and lead them to listening to the podcast and relating to us host more. Overall, I found the most difficult thing linking the buttons and images up as I haven't done this before and it was quite hard to do. Other than that, creating the website was rather fun and easy in a way and it was enjoyable.

Each page, links to the podcast giving them information about their host's or about the creation of the podcast itself. I believe this is effective as it will help the viewers feel closer to the host and in turn the podcast and hopefully then will begin to relate their own lives to it.
