Soundslides: Second attempt

Filed under: Multimedia, Photojournalism, Sound recording, journalism training — britr @ 8:40 am

I’ve made another Soundslides presentation, and I’m  little proud and sad, all at the same time.

My audio was much better than my first attempt.  I gathered tons of it, and the editing was much more natural. But my photos were almost painful.  None of what I planned to shoot even occurred.  In Soundslides about a bridal salon, I got no pictures of brides trying on dresses.

I went back twice, and the brides I planned to photograph cancelled their appointments or never showed.  I had no idea how much time it took to get amazing photographs.  Sigh.  I’m still working on that fine line between the ideal and what you end up with, despite the best of efforts.  Luckily, I’ll have one more chance to improve with another set of slides to end he semester.
