Very random oddcast

My experience doing the CAMM course 

When I first started the course, I wasn’t really know what it was about, but I was excited to learn about radio and content creation. I actually ended up learning a lot more than I expected. 

The first few sessions we learned about radio and how it works, along with how to link different songs together; researching if the band/singers have collaborated or done something that relates to the next song coming up. We also learned about six degrees of Kevin Bacon which was really fun. He really is in a lot of things isn’t he?!

Then we started talking about what we wanted to create. Me and Carrie-Ann decided to do a podcast together, deciding to ours based on Reddit stories (specifically on r/amItheasshole). We thought that it wouldn’t take that long to record but we ended up going off on different rambles and at the end we were talking about serial killers.

Editing it was quite fun as we learnt how to make the audio louder or quieter depending on the section, along with cutting things out of the track. This ended up taking a while, but we got it done in the same time!

Although I chose to create a podcast, I am still interested in learning with Ryan about radio. I am going to be finding out more about Stirling Community Radio with him during my work experience.
