This week in class, Lee was away so we had a PhD student in, he was cool, he wore cowboy boots. In the lesson, we discussed the reading, I enjoyed this reading so there was a lot to discuss in class even though there was only 4 in it. We were asked to record a 1-3 minute snippet for a radio show. We were split into pairs and off we went.
I was with my classmate, Salman, we thought we'd do ours on stories in the news that didn't seem real and were funny. We used www.reddit.com/r/nottheonion as a reference. We had a bit of trouble at first as there were not enough vocal booths available even though the PhD student had booked them. So we had to go back and ask him to go kick someone out, which kinda felt like telling our mum that our brother was using something and we wanted a go.
Nonetheless, we cracked on with the project in the time we had left. We used myself as the narrator and put on an exaggerated news reading voice. We also used my voice as intro and outro music as we didn't have enough time to source any or create anything really worthwhile. The track can be heard below:
