This workshop focuses on the technical and content elements of editing audio files. In it, you will produce a clean, edited version of the audio clip I provide.
This workshop requires you to edit an audio file that I have recorded that is not cleanly edited. The clip includes instructions, awkward pauses, sounds that should not remain in the final version, and that is characterized by a bit of hiss. Your task is to produce a clean, coherent final version of the book passage.
Note that I have provided a video that demonstrates some refined audio editing strategies. This supplements the material that I provided in support of your first workshop about Working with Audio. That said, it remains essential that you engage in curating your own list of best content and content providers for audio work and podcasting.
Review the two files I provided to support this workshop. Although you may be tempted to skip my discussion of editing strategies, I cover things that may not appear in the videos you have already seen. I contextualize those strategies in production, as well.
The work for this assignment is relatively straightforward. It requires that you complete the following tasks.
When you save your file for submission, use the filename Lastname_WorkingWithAudio2.mp3.
Post your audio file to the forum dedicated to this workshop on Canvas Discussions with a brief introduction where you identify the music you incorporated. Attach your edited workshop mp3 your post.
