Group Project – Podcast/Vodcast
The group project was a good experience and we all got to work with Audacity’s editing and special effects tools. We started by exchanging ideas and making an equipment list on our project wiki. We got together for a test recording and I even took a test video which is up on our wiki http://lis768podcast.pbwiki.com . I know it’s stupid, but it was just for fun. Though I’ve had the camera, a Cannon with 8.0 mp for a while, I haven’t had much time to really learn to use it. I was able to record a longer video than I thought it would, more than 10 minutes. The quality was very good and I’ll probably stop using my not very old video camera and just buy a bigger memory card so I can record longer videos. I regret that we weren’t able to get together for a third time to make the video recording as a group. Mick will put the link up to the blog where he posted our podcast and my video clips. I could not get the longer version up on Youtube because it was over the 10 minute limit so I made the short clips. http://www.youtube.com/judif108 (This is the same as the posting on Mick’s site.)
Audacity is very easy and a lot of fun to work with. I highly recommend it as a recording tool. I hope to finish my story for my library’s website one of these days soon. I’ll keep this blog open and when it’s up I’ll post a link to my library’s web site. I think podcast and vodcast are great teen projects for libraries and I hope to get this going at my library, but I’m not in charge of YA so it makes it more difficult to do.
