Couch or Congdon Audio Project

Couch or Congdon?

For this assignment, I polled the students of High Point University on the issue of whether or not they liked the fact that the building currently known as Congdon is being renamed to Couch. Listen the the clip to see what they have to say! 




The Logistics:

For this assignment I used Adobe Audition to take what was formerly a 1:15 long interview into a 60 second clip. I went through the audio and cut out awkward pauses, screw-ups, and other flaws in the audio to make sure the interview flowed nicely and was concise! I also played around with the fade in and fade out functions to ensure that the audio wasn't choppy. While there were moments where my mic was louder and a bit fuzzy - I think overall it turned out great! 

Conclusion:

In all, it was really interesting getting to play around with the audio tools in Audition! I found it really cool to see how one could manipulate the audio to remove and fill in spaces to make it appear as though someone said something when really they didn't. While that might get a bit tricky ethically, it was really intriguing to see how it's all done! 

Best,
