Le Weekly Reflection Post

Hello and welcome back to another weekly reflection post. In my last couple of posts I said I would be keeping you updated on our latest project, where we were making a podcast about the greatest Canadian. I had just finished writing the script in my last post, and now I got the chance to use it for the first draft of our podcast episode. For this draft, we were supposed to put together the full episode, complete with interviews, music, and transitions. We were also supposed to meet these standards:

However, this wasn’t going to be our final draft, so if we missed some of these we would have another chance in our final draft, which I’ll next week when I’m finished. I think I met most of these guidelines in my draft, but that’s not to say it was easy. I ran into a few issues, one of them being a weird hissing sound that kept coming when I was recording. I’m not sure why it kept happening, but after I unplugged the mic a few times it went away, so it didn’t take too much time to fix. Another problem I had that took some more time to fix was the quality of my recordings. When I put my recordings into GarageBand, the quality was significantly worse, even though I used a microphone. I’m not really sure why this happened either, but I found out that if I turned down the audio of the recording, and then increased the volume of the entire episode, the problem went away. The final issue I experienced was actually handing it in. For some reason I couldn’t export it into Showbie, so I had to export it into voice memos, and then put it into files, and then into Showbie. Despite these problems, I finished my draft and am ready for feedback to improve my podcast for the final draft, and now I know how to solve some of the problems I might encounter. To close off this post, here is my entire draft of my podcast episode:
