ONE OF THE MOST CHERISHED behaviours I witness involves the transfer of skills between generations. Sometimes this happens around the kitchen table as we make things.
Currently, I'm watching Dylan (7) develop his skills as an audio blogger. He wants to help his mates in primary school talk about emperor penguins and print making so he is practicing the technical process with an iPad Mini, Voice Record Pro, and an ATR 2100 USB mic. We plan top share the result as one of my Topgold Audio Clips next week.
Getting a high quality audio recording on the first pass is an essential digital literacy in the field of creative media.
