Montreal Dancing Diaries, Part 1

Feb 25, 2009 20:58

Hey Guys,

So some of you know that I've begun volunteering around CKUT, and have gotten involved with the Dance show: Movement Museum. In this context, I finally have an excuse to start playing around with audio editing and documentary creating - satisfying my curiousity re:podcasts and other fantastic constructions.

I am starting a series (only one is as of yet finished) called the Montreal Dancing Diaries which will be 5 minute segments on various kinds of dancing you can do around town. The first one, on Tango, will air on tomorrow's Movement Museum show (14h-15h EST, 90.3 FM in the Montreal region, or online) but if you are curious to hear it otherwise, I've got it online:

I still have a lot of learning to do WRT editing and voice overs (uhg the effort of not sounding contrived!) but for a first go, I am pretty proud. Everything but my voice overs were recorded at the Tango lesson I attended (less than a hours worth of material), and so the music was not separable form the background noise or the interview, making transitions a bit of a challenge.

Anyway - I am glad it is done. Now to plot the next one!
