Okay so now I have somehow managed to get 10 one minute sound bites. It was challenging to edit mostly half hour recordings down to a minute, and most of mine are 1 minute to 1:30 minutes long. It's not a train smash, but I don't think I was very creative when I first started out doing the interviews, and now it seems quite bland.
In any case I am done with the first part of editing, and it was lots of fun. Dipuo and I have been sitting in the radio labs from early morning till supper time every day this week and the previous week, and it's been entertaining. We've had coffee and chatted, and complained about the loud third years, and it's been a blast.
Next I have to refine my portraits and try to make them more interesting, maybe record some wild track for those that don't have contextual sounds. My favourite one so far is the one I did with Tummy, and that was supposed to be the extra one I just did because I saw him randomly and asked him to speak into the microphone.
Furthermore today I got a cool picture of one of my interviewees, Tim Huisamen, from Stephen Mina. Stephen is a great artist and he drew Mr Huisamen to the T. Check out his work at http://funklordsteve.deviantart.com/ It's really awesome:)
