Our first podcast was quite nice, it was edited very well (by Mr Brunet)<br />
but our voices were too small. We learned from our mistakes and gave it<br />
a second try which was way better and soon after we were doing it all<br />
with more independence and confidence.<br />

We (EMOH) have already made 10 episodes of our podcast so far and<br />
we have learnt a lot from it.<br />
The origin of our podcast started when 5JB was preparing for our<br />
class assembly. We decided to write a magazine to go along with it, too.<br />
After we published our magazine, we thought because we started a<br />
magazine, so why not do a podcast? And that is why we created 10<br />
episodes of our podcast so far.<br />
When we first started the podcast, we brainstormed about some ideas<br />
that could help us during our podcast journey so we could have a<br />
clearer idea about what we should do when we are recording and how to<br />
stay calm.<br />
Do you want to know how we record our podcast? Well, here is our full<br />
podcast routine~ In the morning when we get to our class, we bring our<br />
computers, check in with the teacher to make sure that she/he knows we<br />
are here, then we go directly to Mr Brunet's office. When<br />
we arrive there, we head to the SE21 recording room (in the Senior<br />
<strong>School</strong> basement). Then our wonderful journey begins!<br />
Firstly, we make sure that the microphone that we are<br />
recording is directly facing us so that it can pick up our voices (talking)<br />
clearly. Then, we can start to record! When we record, we make sure that<br />
we are speaking clearly and we try to avoid background music such<br />
as fidgeting, laughing, and other people in the background speaking.<br />
After we record, Mr Brunet will edit the recording we made on<br />
Wednesday or Thursday. It is then ready to be published on Friday.<br />
We have all had a fun journey making our podcast so far.<br />
Sometimes we face challenges like people coming late or missing when<br />
we are about to record. But rather than complaining or waiting, we just<br />
get it started without the person and get one of the other members to<br />
say their lines for them.<br />
Also, we sometimes have problems with recording too, like<br />
the background noise, people saying their lines too quietly, but either<br />
way, we try our best for these to not happen. After all, we are still learning<br />
and making mistakes during our journey of learning!<br />
This is only the beginning of our adventure, and we cannot wait to face<br />
more challenges and overcome them! We can’t wait for our new year of<br />
podcasting!
