Friday, April 22nd
Today was another great day for my project! I continued with my editing, which as I said before, is a pretty boring and tedious process. But, after I cleaned up the interviews by cutting out the unimportant things, the interviews sound a lot better. I'm excited for next week because I have 2 more interviews, and I can't wait to see how they all fit together. Next week I am interviewing Ati from Seprojoven in Costa Rica, and Daniel Azcarate from Escuela de Fútbol Sarmiento Lora in Colombia. These interviews should be exciting because I am speaking partly in Spanish and partly in English for them. I've prepared the questions both in English and in Spanish. That's another thing I worked on today. I took a good amount of time deciding what I wanted to ask these two people, wrote the questions in English, and then did my best to translate them into Spanish. I had Mrs. Mitchell help out with the translation to confirm that the Spanish was correct.
After I worked on that, I watched a number of tutorial videos. I want to make sure my podcast sounds as professional as possible, so I watched some videos on how sound can be edited on Audacity. Next, I watched Youtube tutorial videos on how to make an effective podcast, and made sure my podcast so far had all the elements mentioned in the video.
Make sure you make copies of the aup file in audacity before converting. We can lay tracks of your Spanish talks in the background and your English commentary on top when you are ready.
