Audio Story Final

For my final audio story, I completely smoothed out my interview with my friend Avery, and since I thought it was such a strong interview, I kept the whole original story of it. I truly think what was said in the interview is great motivation to get those to understand my topic, and maybe try and follow the ways of living that I’m talking about in my interview. Some of the feedback I received was to get rid of all of the “uh’s” and other words relating, and that’s exactly what I did. I went back through and adjusted my interviews clips in order to eliminate all help words, and this made my interview sound a lot better. Other comments I got on my original draft included not having too long of pauses, so I cut the pauses out to make my interview flow as steady as possible. With all of this done, my final audio is now smoother and sounds a lot more professional than my original draft. Given that my topic is all about going to the gym, I think having the interview with my mentor was very important since the same guy I’m interviewing is also the same guy who motivated me. So creating an interview with him was the best idea I could think of as for getting people motivated to go to the gym. I could’ve created audios of me telling people how to do certain workouts, but I feel like those wouldn’t be useful if I couldn’t motivate anyone to go to the gym in the first place. Creating this interview was simple since I just thought about the things, I’d like to hear being a first-time gym user, or maybe a person who’s never gone to the gym before. Also, everything I added in my interview was a genuine response and we only needed to have one take at creating it (despite all of the pauses and “uh’s” that I later edited out). Overall, I think this audio is a great piece to inspire people to get out of their comfort zone in order to improve their lives with the gym.
