Inside View

Using Two Wireless Rigs

by Bernie Goldbach in Clonmel

If you follow my Instagram or my Flickr photos, you'll know that I have a lot of old equipment along with some new stuff. I talked about both of those types of equipment and also about how we are setting up behind the scenes recording "Heritage and Stories" with the Tipperary libraries. This is important because I'm hoping that some of the people who join us--young kids on the youth media team and the librarians that are part of the staff--might listen to this Topgold Audio Clip and learn what's happening behind the scenes.

Going Local with Young Voices

by Bernie Goldbach in Clonmel

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.

I STARTED EXPERIMENING with Veed.io on my Samsung Note 9 handset. Here are a few impressions concerning mobile content production, project templates, and workflow.

Recapping a Twitter Campaign

I am working with 30 talented first year creatives as they wind down a six week Twitter Campaign. I recapped current progress as a short audio blog item and hope there's more to come.

 

Listen to "Twitter Campaign Results E97 #filmschool2022" on Spreaker.

I've discovered the best recording equipment is often what's connected directly to a phone because I haven't been able to find the audio levels for Spreaker Studio on the Microsoft Surface Book. I think I'm going to revert to using XLR lapel mics and a shortgun mic with my Zoom H6 field recorder because the audio quality is much easier to control that way.

TUS Students on TippFM #podcasting

THREE STUDENTS from the Clonmel Digital Campus joined Fran Curry live on air for the Friday panel on TippFM. Marie Cowan, Frank Murphy, and Shane O'Callaghan discussed climate change, COVID restrictions, and overuse of social media. You can hear the conversation on Spotify or download "TUS Students on TippFM" Transcript.txt (30.7K).

Helping Local Radio Reach Younger

WE LISTEN TO LOCAL RADIO because our TippFM covers topics we hear when talking with neighbours. We know local radio listenership reaches an older demographic and have started reading about ways a younger listenership might be attracted to local radio stations.

Snippets about Leadership in my Second Brain #cong21

I HAVE A LOT OF THOUGHTS about leadership bubbling up inside my second brain. Leadership is a prime topic following me from my days as an Air Force officer and it's the main feature during Congregation 2021.

Nice Hearing Lively Streets in Cork

WE DROPPED INTO the centre of Cork for some shopping and a family meal. The big feature I noticed was the lively conversations in Cork-speak and busking by young Irish--two facets of Cork we missed while locked down by COVID.

A Community Using Audio Glue

I'm working with conversational glue at the end of June 2021. I made an audio clip while reflecting on things I've done that are going to stay with me long after the annual audiomo challenge passes into the next year.

Listen to "I Enjoyed The Conversational Glue #audiomo E568" on Spreaker.

The most import thing I learned in this 11th year of audiomo is that there are dimensions of communications that are more constructive when they have a community building dynamic. In this case, the self-organising community of audiomo binds together by a conversational glue.

Audiomo Live Session

I met up with Josh O’Farrell Hurley using Zoom during audiomo, a monthly social audio challenge. We created two video clips, one for Twitter that also went to Josh’s Soundcloud account and another for Flickr. The one for Twitter was similar to a clip Ray Garraud and Ernie Hartley made using their Backpack Studio app. You can also create threaded audio commentary by using Limor or Swell.
