Homework Details for Audio Week 1

Homework is two parts:

1: Listen to the following audio program for next week's class discussion: On the Media: Pulling Back the Curtain

2: Produce a short interview with an expert:

* Conduct a short, newsworthy interview on a topic of your choice -- at least 2 minutes but not more than 5 minutes.
* Source cannot be a roommate or family member.
* Must have short intro and sign-off, as we did in class, where the interviewer and subject are named.
* Must demonstrate the techniques covered in class (finding a quiet room, holding recorder correctly, etc).
* No editing allowed - must be raw file, including your countdown.
* Remember to write a headline for your piece and make that the subject field of the blog post. So the subject line will read: Your Name: Headline. In other words, if I interviewed a student about lectures, the subject line would be: Jeff Young: A Student Talks About What Annoys Them About Lectures
* Post to the blog by Sept 13 at 10 p.m. Remember: First post to SoundCloud, then paste the "embed code" from that audio into a post to the class blog.
