Interview techniques

-Open questions
-maybe warm up with subject first, asking general questions to ease them into the interview
- Find a microphone distance which is comfortable and gives clear sound (make sure to test this before interviewing)
- Make sure you use a pop shield

War of the worlds

The 1938 controversial radio broadcast shocked the US on a national scale
I found the production on this very interesting

New podcast I thought was really cool

Lighthearted and endeering, this podcasts focuses on the wonders of escalators. Taking apart the sounds of broken escalators and discussing them with a backdrop of the actual sounds

Thought this was really interesting and cool, theres something very personal and niche about this podcast. It begins with a joke. And talks about how and why escalators are great, which is a strange concept to grasp - you don't find a lot of people sitting around talking about escalators

Interview Test

Learning to use the equipment in the vocal booths, through interviewing a fellow student on their university experience. This clip is unedited as I feel it is important to look back closely to then be able to spot what parts of the material needs to be edited for example there are a lot of long pauses in this clip and a lot of mumbling and ums and ahs which would have to be edited out to keep the piece nice a tight.

US Radio podcast

Cool radio show 'Song Exploder' where an artist pulls apart one of their songs and describes and explains how they created it and the ideas behind it, very interesting to listen to
