This week our assignment was to do an audio interview with a person who makes UNH work. My group chose to interview Sheila Mosley, a housekeeper in Smith Hall here at UNH. She was a really interesting person to interview and I was very surprised to hear about her past professional life. She was an RN before becoming a housekeeper here, and was such an interesting person to talk to.
We had one minor slip-up during the actual interview process when I thought I was recording but wasn't, but it ended ok. I think we got some really great sounds for the background noise of her job, and I loved her voice itself and the way it sounded on tape.
When it came to the actual editing and putting the story together, I was pretty nervous. No one in my group had ever done any audio editing before and so it was quite the adventure. But I think that we got the hang of it towards the end and will only continue to get better as the semester continues. It was kind of hard for me, since I am a bit of a perfectionist and was worried that it wasn't going to be good enough. But I just had to remind myself that I am certainly no expert and just like everyone else, am learning as I go in this class. Overall though, I am really pleased with how this audio story came out.
