DYLAN IS REFINING his podcasting skills by seeking out people in places he enjoys. He's using our Rode Wireless Go microphones when interviewing people he has met in various local venues, such as Sylvia in Martin's Fruit and Veg.
Listen to "Finding Martin's Fruit and Veg in Clonmel" on Spreaker.
I hope to train Dylan to handle all the workflow behind the vox pops he's creating. He knows how to scout a place, run down a willing participant, record with safeguards using Voice Record Pro on a broken iPhone, and then upload the recording to Google Drive where I edit the clip. The finished clips, normally no longer than four minutes, drop into A Little Bit of Tipp podcast. Some will be uploaded onto the Youth Media Interviews playlist on YouTube.
Within a year, I think Dylan will be proficient enough to train his friends in primary school so they can produce short clips for local radio. Those audio segments might be powerful enough to convince dozens of Dylan's extended family to visit Tipperary instead of choosing the standard Dublin-Kerry-Dublin route so many of our friends select.
