First Draft of Audio Story
Audition a word I once associated with theatre arts and my time spent in Daggy Hall, I now associate this word with the time I spent bent over my computer trying to create an audio masterpiece. This assignment wasn’t as stressful as the past assignments but it took me a little longer to understand the basic pieces of the software.
I started with the intention of just interviewing my friends with questions and piecing together their various answers. After interviewing my little sister, Meagan Wilson, I decided this wasn’t the direction I really wanted to go. The only question I want to ask is, “How do you know me (Heather Wilson)?” My blog is about my life after graduation and I thought it would be fitting to interview the people who have shaped my life while studying at WSU.
To interview my friends at WSU I’m just going throughout my day and asking influential people in my life how they know me. By doing this I want to show through an audio story where and how I’m involved on campus through my friends. I think it’s better for other people to speak of your involvement, rather than spouting out a long resume and losing your listener because it’s monotonous.
For my draft, I interviewed Meagan and my friend/co-worker Samantha Hege. For my final version I plan to include my supervisor from Residence Life, Matthew Jeffries, one of my co-workers from UREC Marketing and possibly someone from my club the Association of Women in Communication. I think this would create a well-rounded audio story. I want to also underlay the audio story with music through the whole interview. I only placed a small section of music at the beginning and I don’t know if I like it. What do you think? Hopefully you’ll enjoy my draft and help me to make an even better final version.
