The first podcast that I created was named ‘Peer Interview’. My peer was a UNE student named Bennett. In this podcast we talked about Bennetts why he signed up for this course, whether it was what he wanted to do or not, his favorite childhood memory, and some more facts.

I made a lot of decisions while editing my podcast, the first decision would be; after listening to the interview multiple times, I noticed that my voice was hard to understand while asking Bennett the questions. So to fix that I re-recorded the questions in a quiet space to empathize with what I was asking him. I found that it made the podcast sound more professional and organized. The second decision I made while editing was when I realized that I was over the time requirements by 3 seconds. After listening to the podcast a few more times I noticed that there were a lot of pauses in between me asking the questions and Bennette answering, which added more rolling time. To fix that I clipped the clips and lined them directly next to each other so his voice flowed together naturally. 

The sound I used for this podcast was upbeat and happy, this podcast was fun, and I got to meet someone that I didn’t already know and learn more about him. I liked how the podcast questions were not awkward, throughout the interview, it wasn’t awkward at any points and instead we got off track talking about random things that I had to clip out. If there was one thing I would change it would be to have everyone do their interviews at different times. The environment we were in was very loud with other people doing interviews around us, which made it hard to hear Bennett at some points, and can throw off the professionalism of the podcast. But overall, the podcast turned out better than I thought I was capable of doing, and it was fun!
